Shiv comes out to find the family outside and tells them to go and sleep.
Shiv sat on the stairs thinking about his act. He was disturbed and bathes himself. There, Gangaa breaks all the glasses in the room and destroys everything. She struggles to get the door opened. Shiv sat outside, water dripping off his head. Riya comes to Shiv and asks why he is doing this? Shiv reminds her to pack Radhika’s bag, he doesn’t want Radhika to see this. Riya goes silently.
In the room, Gangaa cries thinking she would see how far he goes. Shiv says he is only doing this to fill her life with colours and happiness, and this is difficult, but he would win it.
The next morning, Radhika leaves. Shiv comes downstairs, Gangaa had fallen asleep by the side board, in a messed up room. She knocks the door again. The nanny comes to Shiv and hands him tea as Gangaa hasn’t eaten anything. Shiv unbolts the door and enters. He watches blood over Gangaa’s hand and says he didn’t want to do this at all, but she is forcing him to do this. He pushes her towards the bed and brings the rope to tie her with the bed. He instructs the nanny she would now only eat and drink by his hand, or she will stay hungry until she agrees to his terms.
Pratab comes to inform Shiv everyone has arrived at the Math (Hermitage). Shiv tells Gangaa to decide until his return if she wants to eat with his hands or not! Gangaa was left crying. Shiv leaves. The nanny peeks through the window and tells Gangaa that Shiv wasn’t this way, he was hurt by what she said. She should cease being stubborn.
At the Math, Shiv says he called them all here because he wants to announce his inability to be a Mathadesh anymore. He takes his turban off.
Jhumki was cheerful that now, Pratab would be the next MathaDesh. Pratab whispers to Savitri to announce that he would now be the MathaDesh. Shiv apologizes for announcing it so randomly. The villagers show their will to watch Shiv as MathaDesh. The village head announces there would be an election for MathaDesh. Pratab says he would get the seat of MathaDesh after Shiv, there is no need for elections as per what has always happened here. Savitri stops Pratab and says the Village head have suggested an election for the new MathaDesh. She silently assures Pratab only he would be the MathaDesh.
Shiv calls his workers to meet him.
Jhumki tells Gangaa about Shiv’s announcement from outside. She tells Gangaa to leave as soon as possible, as Shiv would no more care about anyone. Shiv comes to the room with food for Gangaa. Gangaa was stubborn and not ready to eat. Shiv wasn’t ready to listen to her and eats from the plate beside her. Gangaa looks towards the plate, but doesn’t take the bite from Shiv’s hand.
At night, Shiv leaves for a nearby village and tells Gangaa to break this fast. Gangaa thinks she must have some energy to run from here and should break this fast. He turns to leave. Gangaa asks him for water. She thinks she is doing this to get herself freed from here. She coughs hard, thinking she must pose not to be well. Shiv was concerned and opens her hands. He makes her stand up. Gangaa asks why she has kept her tied till now, as she understands she was wrong. Shiv says her drama won’t work for him, he was a MathaDesh earlier, but now, he is a common man and can do anything. He unties her hands from behind. He leaves the room locking her inside.
Aashi speaks to her fiancé as they plan a party.
Shiv comes to the room and finds Gangaa attempting to cut the window rods. Shiv comes there saying she would never be successful to run away from the village. His servants have kept an eye over her all day long. He tells Gangaa to go and sleep, he is outside. Shiv sits on the doorway. Inside, Gangaa thinks about doing something. She makes a noise inside, Shiv opens the door and tells her to go and sleep. He gets a cough at once, and pours water for him, then gets a call from Muneem. Gangaa remembers Shiv uses sleeping pills, she mixes the tablets in his glass and pours him water. Shiv doesn’t take it at first, but he makes her drink it at first to check if it’s well enough, and then drinks from it. Shiv goes outside and sleep at the doorway. Gangaa successfully gets outs of the room, she notices the guards outside and thinks she must dodge them. She makes a noise the other way and runs.
Gangaa faints asking for help by some men. They decide to take her to the station. Gangaa wakes up to find the men drinking beside her in the car. They tell her they are taking her to the railway station where she wanted to go. She says her name is Gangaa, and they ask about her residence? The railway station passes by. Gangaa was alert and asks them to stop the car, the men begin laughing.
The men had brought Gangaa back home. Shiv drags Gangaa inside and warns Gangaa not to try being cunning with him! He already told her that she won’t be able to leave the village without his will. He pushes her over the bed. Gangaa screams that she doesn’t want to stay with him! Shiv shouts at her to go inside! Everyone from the family gather around. Gangaa comes to Riya and Kushal and asks if they like all this, and won’t they say something? She asks if they would only be silent spectators? She asks Savitri if she is a woman, would she witness her son’s behavior towards a woman silently. She cries requesting them all to let her go, she doesn’t want to live here and wants freedom from all these relations. Pratab comes to Shiv and asks him to let her go, as she daily creates such drama at home and he would have bear if it was his (Pratab’s) behavior.
Savitri comes to slap Pratab and says she would give him his reply. She says had Jhumki done this, he would have thrown Jhumki out, but Shiv can’t do this because it’s about their marriage and Gangaa was doing a lot staying at home, only for the sake of revenge, she might do a lot if left outside. Shiv takes Gangaa inside. Riya and Kushal also leave. Savitri stares at Pratab and calls Gangaa an arm of Shiv’s destruction, she considers Shiv as enemy and Shiv would end in Gangaa’s hand and if she leaves, Shiv’s anger would calm down. It’s better for them that Gangaa stays here.
Aashi comes to Savitri and says it’s her birthday tomorrow. She wants a party at home. Savitri promises to invite her in-laws. Savitri tells Aashi to speak to Gangaa and not create any drama.
In the room, Gangaa stood beside the window when Aashi comes in. Gangaa shouts, asking why Shiv came here, and how much would he trouble her! Aashi keeps a hand over her shoulder. Gangaa sees her and requests her for help to get away from here. Aashi apologizes, that she can’t be of help, and Gangaa gets upset that she came here only for her selfish reason. She calls her family selfish people, who doesn’t care about anyone else! Gangaa asks what she wants from her? Aashi says she wants a small party for her birthday, her in-laws would also be coming here. Gangaa stops Aashi and promises to wear the mask of being happy infront of her in-laws, they won’t find out about anything.
