Kabeer and Zara comes back home, they see Ayesha preparing to go to Hamdan’s house for the haldi (Turmeric) Ceremony. She asks Zeenat, Kabeer and Zara to go with her. They are surprised that Hamdan and his family has accepted the proposal even after everything.
Ayesha is leaving the house with the family. She is tensed to leave Rukshar alone at home, but Kabeer says she will be fine. Rukshar comes out of her room and sees the family members going for the haldi Ceremony.
Zara and the family comes to Hamdan’s house for the Henna Ceremony. Zara greets Hamdan’s Mother.
Zeenat comes there and sees Hamdan smiling at people, she thinks Hamdan is no less than Kabeer. Zara comes to her and says you are thinking right, he is a nice guy. Zeenat looks on and smiles being satisfied for her Sister.
Rukshar is in her room, she goes hysteric recalling how Zara and Kabeer confirmed her marriage, she break things and cries, she says no Kabeer, don’t do this with me. Rukshar comes to the lounge, there is no one home, but she feels like someone is following her.
Hamdan’s haldi (Tumeric) ceremony starts, and Alina applies Tumeric on him. Ayesha applies it and says she hopes that him and Rukshar remains happy.
Rukshar takes a knife and stands on the balcony railing, she starts walking on the thin railing. Shahbaz comes home and sees her. He asks what she is doing? You want to jump down? I would suggest you to not jump, but the height is not much though, you won’t die from it, only your bones will break. He holds her hand and brings her down. They hear a heavy storm outside. Shahbaz tells her that life isn’t a game that she keeps putting it at risk, it’s a treasure that she should use everyday with cleverness.
Rukshar says she used to think the same, but someone snatched that treasure from her. Shahbaz says you don’t understand anything, but keep crying over a moon, and where can I get you a moon? I have taken you as a daughter and I would suggest that we can still mend things, so forget everything, we will forget it too, your new life is waiting for you, get married to Hamdan and enjoy your new life.
Rukshar says so you really want me to leave Zara and Kabeer’s life and go to Dubai to live my life? He says yes. Rukshar says okay, I will do as you say, but I will do it my way, I have a condition; I want ten million rupees to go from here, you gave Zara ten million as dowry, and you take me as your daughter, so give me ten million as dowry too. Shahbaz says what will you do with that money? Rukshar says I will go away from Zara and my Kabeer’s life, I will live my life in Dubai, I will spend my life with Kabeer’s memories, but I will not marry Hamdan.
Kabeer comes home and hears all that. Rukshar and Shahbaz doesn’t see him, but he heard Rukshar’s condition.
Zara applies tumeric on Hamdan and says congrats and thank you. Hamdan thinks that even after meeting me, if Rukshar thinks about Kabeer, then to hell with his himself (Hamdan). Zara asks what he’s thinking of? He says he trusts her and Kabeer, and he will keep Rukshar happy. Zara jokes that Rukshar’s magic is already working on him.
Kabeer comes to Rukshar and asks what she’s saying? You want the money? And what will you do with it? You will start a business in Dubai? You know about it? A Wife’s life revolves around her husband, and she should build a life with him, and stop this stubbornnes. He says Rukshar’s life isn’t with him, and she should be with Hamdan, start her life with him, and make a new life there.
Shahbaz says Kabeer is right, she should move on with her life, as promised, he will give her 10 million rupees, but she will get it only on marriage day with Hamdan, so she ahould stop thinking about not getting married, and when she marries Hamdan, she will get the money, he leaves.
Kabeer says to Rukshar that he knows dreaming is good, but losing oneself in it is bad, but she knew that she and Zara didn’t want to marry each other, but they compromised, ao she shoukd also do it, and who knows, she might start living happily, with her partner one day. He leaves from there. Rukshar is in tears.
Kabeer takes on Zara. She covers them with her scarf, asking if it’s a responsibility or love? He replies Love! They share some intimate moments together when Rukhsar comes in. Both parts away. Rukhsar wanted to show them some Childhood photos, she sits to share some memories with them, and insists on spending some time with her. They sit with her. Rukhsar tells Zara she’s been here since the age of six. She shows a pile of her photos with Kabeer going to School, their birthdays, their mischievousness, and their games. She was saddened by all the pinching memories and how Kabeer had asked her to leave the house today. She finally puts all these photos on fire. Zara holds hand with Kabeer and advices Rukhsar to spill poison on the album in her heart; it will automatically make her future life beautiful.
Rukhsar runs to her bedroom and cries there.
Miraj comes into the room then, holding a knife. Rukhsar runs for her life, as he attempts to stab her. Zeenat comes hearing the screams, but no one was there inside the room, when they all enter to see what’s wrong. Rukhsar is being proven as lunatic. Zeenat suggests Rukhsar to marry Hamdan, this is the best way left to her. Hamdan is no less than Kabeer in any way. She is her elder sister and wants the best for her, in her opinion Rukhsar should marry Hamdan. After Hamdan has left, Rukhsar finds a note on side table, with Nilofer mentioned on it. She opens to find honeymoon tickets inside and understands it was Miraj.
Outside, everyone is busy with the wedding preparations. Zara had a flu. Ammi was concerned for her. Kabeer teases that he could hear some sounds from the roof last night, and she was in a single scarf last night, when she returned to the room. Zara denies even going to the roof.
Rukhsar comes to the hall with Zeenat. Alina complements that she looks as beautiful as Zara did. Miraj passed by. Rukhsar comes to speak to him, and questions what this is? Miraj replies this is the gift from his Sister, Nilofer. Rukhsar questions how it is possible when a person isn’t present? Miraj replies it’s similar to how Siraj was present in Zara’s case. Rukhsar says she has nothing to lose now, everyone knows about her truth here. Miraj warns that no one will trust her. She wanted to test it, but Miraj pulls her to a wall. He warns her against the life of Ayaan (Zeenat’s son), and what would happen to Zeenat then.
Shahbaz just came out of a door. Miraj straightens up and gifts Rukhsar the honeymoon gift from Nilofer. Shahbaz tells Rukhsar to take the gift.
Zara was getting ready in the room when Kabeer comes from behind and says he recalls the blessings of Allah watching her. He gives her a balm to be applied behind the ear and on her neck because of the fast to relieve her flu. She signals to him to apply it. He cautiously looks around, then applies it.
Zara takes Kabeer aside and asks him whether he has ever developed some sort of feelings for Ruksar? Kabeer assures Zara and they both hug.
Everyone gets ready for Hamdan and Rukhsar’s Nikah? Malvi asks for the dowry. Hamdan gives Ruksar the ten million. Malvi starts the Nikaah. There is shadow of some girl behind the doors.
The Priest asks Ruksaar if she accepts this Nikah (Wedding)? Rukshar doesn’t answer. Kabeer and Zara are tensed. All look on. Rukshar says Qubool hai(I do). The Priest asks again, for the second time, and she says I do, he asks again, for the final time, and she says I do. All smile and pray. Zeenat kisses her forehead. Alina hugs her.
The Priest asks Hamdan if he accepts this marriage? He says I do three times. All clap. Zara hugs Alina. Kabeer gives Hamdan a hug. Zara says congratulations to Rukshar. Kabeer smiles at her.
