Preeta and Karan came to meet Rudra who was surprised to see them. "You both? But what do you want now? You got my child's custody, my wife also died, what now?" Rudra asked. Karan showed him his and Sonakshi's photo. "What's this? You both were in an affair before even I and Sonakshi divorced?" Karan asked. "What are you saying? The photo can also be photoshopped," Rudra said and Karan held his collars. "Look, tell the truth. It was you only who exchanged my reports with someone else and I was declared infertile, right?" he asked. "What? Karan please...," he was cut in between.

"No, tell me the truth, all of this was a trap by you to get Sonakshi, right? You're my only enemy, you wanted Sonakshi and so you separated her from me by getting my fertility reports exchanged, so then you got her, you even got a child by her but look at your pitiful fate, the child is in my custody," Karan said. "Yes, I did it," Rudra said making him leave. "She was one year junior to me, I loved her always, but you married her and so to get her, I got your reports changed, I kept my eyes on you both 24/7, then my plan got successful and she left you," Rudra admitted.

Preeta recorded all of it and called the police. "What did you get by all of it? You lost your child and your wife both, now rot in jail for the entire lifetime," Karan said, the police arrived and arrested Rudra. Karan and Preeta left from there. They went home and sat down playing with their children. "Karan, look how you were falsely declared infertile but you got two children, you are a parent even then, see," Preeta told him. He looked on.

"And after a year and a half, we both would have your child as well, we would be parents of our child," she said. "Preeta, they are also our children, but yes, we would get one more child," he said, they smiled and shared a hug.

Later, they spent time together with their children.

Hai Mausamon Ki Adaon Mein Tu
Behta Hai Bheegi Hawaon Mein Tu
Din Bhar Chale Hai Khayalon Mein Tu
Sun Maahi Sun Maahi

(Karan surprised Preeta with a kiss, she kissed him back)

Hai Gunguni Si Subahon Mein Tu
Khamoshiyon Mein Sadaon Mein Tu
Faila Hai Charon Dishaon Mein Tu
Sun Maahi Sun Maahi

(he picked her and twirled her)

Khwabon Ke Kinare
Main Bhi Aaun Tu Bhi Aa Re
Jee Le Zindagi Zara Si
Thode Lamhe Guzare
(He ran behind her and they fell on the bed and romanced)

Na Ho Duniya Ki Batein
Hum Dono Aur Ye Taare
Maine Dhoondha Hai Sara Jahan
Tere Jaisa Koi Kahan Re

Sun Maahi..
(They slept close to each other)

Jeena Jise Chahta Hoon
Haan Tu Wahi Zindagi Hai
Kehne Ka Matlab To Yun Hai
Mere Paas Har Khushi Hai
Bas Tu Aaj Ik Teri Kami Hai
(He woke up and didn't find her near him, she came out from behind the curtain and palmed his eyes from behind, he recognized her and she hugged him from behind)

Khwabon Ke Kinare
Main Bhi Aaun Tu Bhi Aa Re
Jee Le Zindagi Zara Si
Thode Lamhe Guzare
(He kissed her hands while she kissed his cheek from behind)

Na Ho Duniya Ki Batein
Hum Dono Aur Ye Taare
Maine Dhoondha Hai Sara Jahan
Tere Jaisa Koi Kahan Re
(Preeta played with Aneeta and Karan played with Raunak)

Khwabon Ke Kinare
Main Bhi Aaun Tu Bhi Aa Re
Jee Le Zindagi Zara Si
Thode Lamhe Guzare
(They printed their footprints along with their children's footprints on cement pad)

Na Ho Duniya Ki Batein
Hum Dono Aur Ye Taare
Maine Dhoondha Hai Sara Jahan
Tere Jaisa Koi Kahan Re
(Then they printed their hand prints on the other cement pad along with their children's)

Maine Dhoondha Hai Sara Jahan
Tere Jaisa Koi Kahan Re
Sun Maahi
(They kissed their children and hugged them)

"He really became a father to us in your absence, and its true, we should go and meet him," Dev said. "Dev bhaiya, you won't be alone with him, even I will come, I trust him, he saved both of us, we should meet him, we should thank him for being a father to us all the while when dad was in coma," Alia said. Ishwari and Shikhar smiled. "That's like my children, come on let's go, we are going right now," Shikhar said, Alia and Dev smiled.

Later, they went to police station and were permitted to meet Arjun. Dev and Alia walked inside the cell and seeing them, he lowered his head. The duo sat down in front of him and wiped his tears. "Buddy, you know I never had a friend as good as you, you were and will always be a buddy to me, but you are also no less than my father for me, you have a golden heart to rear children who weren't even your own," Dev said. "Dev? You called me buddy after such a long time, my bacha, I love you so much, may I hug you?" he asked.

Dev smiled and nodded, they shared a long awaited hug. "I am sorry bacha," he said. "Please buddy, don't say sorry, I got my buddy back and that's what matters," Dev said, they released the hug and smiled. "Arjun uncle, may I also call you buddy?" Alia asked, Arjun smiled and nodded. "Buddy, don't worry, you will be out of his hellhole soon, you will live freely, you will get a good wife, and you will be the best father," she said, Arjun smiled and shared a hug with her as well. Ishwari and Shikhar smiled seeing them.
