The episode begins with Kaashvi nearly losing her balance and almost falling, but Arjun quickly catches her. Concerned, Arjun asks if she is alright, to which she assures him that she is fine. However, she urges him to let go as she needs to leave. Internally, Kaashvi battles her emotions, thinking that she might end up hugging him if he continues to hold her.
On the other hand, Arjun wishes for her to stay by his side forever, the title song playing in the background highlighting the depth of his feelings. He pleads with her to stay a few more minutes, expressing his desire to memorize her face and feel her presence, knowing this might be the last opportunity. Just then, Mohan calls for Arjun, and reluctantly, he leaves.
In another part of the venue, young Karun finds his ball and spots a jalebi stall. His innocent request for jalebi from the vendor adds a moment of lightness. Meanwhile, Mohan and Vikram stumble upon a selfie wall and engage in a conversation about it. Nagesh, overhearing their discussion, sinisterly thinks to himself that this selfie wall will be the cause of their demise. As he brushes past Karun, the child reprimands him, but Nagesh dismisses it, preoccupied with his malicious plans. He instructs his men to lure Vikram and Mohan towards the selfie wall, intending to use an electric shock to end Mohan’s life.
Amidst the tension, Dadi confides in Jagadish, lamenting how she cannot accept that Nitya used Karun to create a rift between Arjun and Kaashvi. Jagadish, filled with shame, admits he feels disgraced to be known as Nitya’s husband. Nitya overhears this and angrily confronts Jagadish for speaking ill of her to Dadi. Jagadish, maintaining his composure, tells her that he only spoke the truth. Nitya, unwilling to escalate the drama at a wedding venue, walks away after Romila offers her a cool drink.
Elsewhere, Meera is seen applying mehendi on Mohan’s hand, a joyous moment captured by Arjun on his phone. Meera, in a cheerful mood, tells Arjun how fortunate she feels to have Mohan. Arjun agrees, and Meera asks about Kaashvi’s health. As if on cue, Kaashvi enters and assures Meera that she is fine. Meera, seizing the moment, suggests that Kaashvi and Arjun should apply mehendi on each other’s hands. Though hesitant, they try to change the subject, but Meera, persistent and teasing, seats them together and hands them the mehendi cones. She leaves after instructing them, confident that they will fulfill the promise.
Ronak appears, congratulating Meera and Mohan, who then take him inside. Meanwhile, Kaashvi, in a clumsy moment, nearly falls again, only to be saved by Arjun’s quick reflexes. This scene of subtle romantic tension unfolds under the watchful eyes of several characters.
In a more serious exchange, Mohan tells Ronak about Nagesh’s escape, blaming himself for the lapse. Ronak reassures him, while Kaashvi steps in, vowing to find Nagesh. Nagesh, eavesdropping on their conversation, learns of their plans. As the gathering continues, Nitya informs Arjun that she is heading home and asks him to bring Karun along. Karun, still fixated on the jalebi, asks Arjun for money, and Arjun, distracted, hopes Kaashvi doesn’t notice Karun’s presence. Nagesh, observing from a distance, plots to kidnap Karun.
The episode shifts to a lighter moment where Nitya and Romila compare their necklaces. Mahima joins them, showing off her necklace and saying it’s better. Romila, always ready with a quip, asks Mahima who she has tricked this time. With a sly smile, Mahima reveals her latest conquest: Mahindra.
The episode concludes on a cliffhanger, setting the stage for further drama and suspense in the next installment.
This detailed account captures the intricate blend of romance, tension, and intrigue that “Yeh Hai Chahatein” masterfully delivers, leaving the audience eagerly anticipating the next episode.
