Ketan was pushed to the room and he looked back and saw the angry Neil who was giving him deadly glare; Avni and Aladin comes there and Avni can saw the anger in Neil's eyes she know he will kill him if she not stop him. Neil goes to ketan and punches his face, Neil beats him badly, his face had bruises and blood was oozing from his mouth and nose; Avni and Aladin were looking at him. Ketan falls and Neil made him stand by grabbing his collar and push him to the wall and continues puch his stomach.

Neil: meri family ki tarf ankh uthane ki teri himmat bhi kaisi ho.

Avni runs to him and tries to pull him back.

Avni: Neil, choro usay.

Neil: nahi is ne meri family ko nuksan pohchane ki koshish ki main isay zinda nahi choronga.

Neil beats Ketan and Avni tries to pull Neil back, Aladin comes he and Avni pulls Neil back.
