A Close Call at the Art Show
Deepika managed to slip away from Chirag at the art event. Her family felt relieved that Chirag didn’t see them. But then, Chandni stopped Chirag to brag that her mother would win the contest. Suddenly, Mishka, disguised as a village person, showed up with a sneaky plan to wreck Deepika’s artwork. Mishka made smoke by burning paper, causing everyone to leave the area.
Mishka’s Sneaky Attack
Chirag heard about the fire and got worried. Mishka then used this chance to get into the workshop and mess up Deepika’s artwork. Chandni went to find Deepika, and Ragini noticed her own project had been damaged. Ragini tried to fix things as Mishka ran away. When Chandni came back, she wrongly blamed Ragini for ruining her mother’s artwork. They started arguing until Prithvi stepped in to stop them.
Triumph and Tears
Chirag finally spotted Deepika at the competition, and Deepika saw Chandni crying. Deepika cheered her up. Baldev decided to take Chandni home to avoid any problems with Chirag. Despite all the drama, Deepika fixed her artwork. Ragini asked Prithvi for help, but it was too late. The staff then collected all the art for judging. Deepika’s piece was a hit, and the judges gave her first place. The Mittal family and even Chirag clapped for her.
A Prize and a Protest
Deepika won ₹1 lakh, which made Mishka angry. Ragini, wanting to meet Deepika, was stopped by Omkar. Later, Ashu took Ragini to buy chocolate. Then, Ragini claimed the contest was unfair, saying Deepika only won because she’s part of the Mittal family. This made the other contestants’ families mad, and they started shouting accusations at the Mittals.
Deepika’s Stand
To defend her family’s good name, Deepika stepped up. She gave the prize money back to Omkar, asking that it be given to the runner-up, and kept only the trophy. Her honest act got a lot of applause.
Rejection and Challenge
As Deepika was leaving, Chirag followed her and offered her a check, saying she deserved the prize money. But Deepika refused, telling him he could hate her but he couldn’t buy her off. She tore up the check, telling him to hate her all he wanted.
Precap:
The school principal refused to let Chandu in because Deepika hadn’t paid the fees. Chirag got angry with the principal and decided to pay for Chandu’s education himself. Deepika thought to herself that Chirag might help Chandu if he knew that Chandu is his own daughter.
