The episode focuses on Deepa’s battle for dignity and the growing tension between her and her husband, who has tracked her down.
1. The Confrontation with the “Monster”
The episode begins with Deepa’s husband, whom everyone refers to as a “beast” for his cruel nature, creating a scene. He is enraged seeing Deepa’s growing closeness with the person who has been helping her (the male lead). He accuses Deepa of “shopping and roaming around in cars” with another man while abandoning her duties as a wife. Deepa, however, shows rare courage and refuses to prove her innocence to someone she considers no better than an animal.
2. Deepa’s Stand for Her Self-Respect
A major part of the episode highlights Deepa’s internal strength. When her husband tries to force her to return to the village by claiming his rights as a husband, Deepa firmly stands her ground. She makes it clear that the city has given her a chance at a new life and that she has no intention of going back to a life of abuse. Her motherly instincts take over as she protects her child from his toxic influence, declaring that he has no right to call himself a father when he only gives pain.
3. The Reveal of the Past
Through a series of emotional dialogues, it is revealed that Deepa’s husband is involved in “shady businesses” and is on the run from people he owes money to. He attempted to use Deepa as a pawn to clear his debts, but his plan failed when she escaped. This revelation makes the family she is currently staying with realize the depth of the danger Deepa is in.
4. The “Farishta” (Guardian Angel)
The male lead, who Deepa sees as a “Farishta” (angel) for paying her hospital bills and saving her child’s life, continues to be her shield. He intervenes when the husband tries to get physical, warning him that Deepa is no longer alone. The episode highlights the stark contrast between the two men—one who sees her as property and the other who sees her as a “Shehzaadi” (princess) of the heart.
