Sai tells Virat that their relationship is over, and they both sign the divorce papers. She thinks that soon Virat will know that it wasn’t her idea to get a divorce, but Ninad’s for his career and the fate of the Chavan family. Sai leaves with a broken heart while Ninad asks Virat to stay back at least for her sake or else she’ll be truly lost. Virat refuses, not wanting to stay there with Shruti around, taking happiness away from his mother in this difficult time. Bhavani firmly stands by her decision about not accepting a child born out of wedlock as heir to the family’s fortunes and says she never will even if called “shahas“ (courageous).
