The next morning, Sanskar dragged Swara and the parents to the Baadi. As soon as they arrived, the scene before them left them bursting into laughter.
Rajveer and Dadi were running in and out of the house, yelling at the top of their lungs.
Parvati Gadodia: "Rajveer! This girl has gone mad... run!"
Girl: "I'll show you who's mad!" she shouted as she swung a viper at Rajveer and Dadi, hitting them with each strike. When the viper broke, she grabbed a long broom and continued beating them.
Rajveer and Dadi screamed for help, but the others could only giggle. Onlookers even started recording the scene on their phones.
Amidst the laughter, Swara and Sanskar exchanged a victorious high-five. Suddenly, a girl approached them from behind with a playful pout.
Girl: "You both forgot me!"
Swasan turned and broke into smiles before enveloping her in a tight hug. The girl was none other than Reena—an NGO owner and one of Sanskar's close friends. Reena ran an organization that helped women who were victims of domestic violence.
Rajveer's third wife, Chanda, had been the target of Dadi's relentless cruelty for years. She had silently endured the abuse, too fearful to stand up to them because of her poverty and orphaned status. She had no place to go. But with Sanskar and Reena's help, Chanda realized that staying silent was also a crime. Though hesitant at first, Reena showed her the stories of countless women who had transformed their lives after breaking free from their abusers.
And now, Chanda was the one beating Dadi and Rajveer with whatever she could find—pipes, broomsticks, anything that came to hand.
Chanda: "You thought I was a worthless piece of trash you could use as you please!" she yelled, striking Rajveer.
Chanda: "And you! My so-called husband!" She swung the broom again. "A pathetic puppet, blindly following your mother, letting her torture me without a word!"
Dadi shrieked, "Haiyyo! What a disaster! I should've never married her off to my son! Janki and Anjali were so much better, but look at my cursed fate! First Janki died, then I schemed against Anjali and ruined her reputation, driving her away!" Dadi was so flustered by Chanda's blows that she unknowingly confessed her sins aloud.
Swara clenched her fists in anger, while Anjali closed her eyes in quiet relief. After all these years, the truth had finally surfaced, and she was vindicated.
Rajveer stood in shock, "Maaa! What did you say?"
Realizing what she had admitted, Dadi tried to backtrack, but Rajveer, furious and ashamed, walked toward Anjali.
Before he could reach her, Swara stepped between them, her voice filled with venom. "Don't you dare come near my mother, Mr. Rajveer Gadodia."
Rajveer pleaded, "Beta, I'm sorry..."
Swara was about to lash out when Anjali gently placed her hand on her shoulder, stopping her.
Anjali: "Shona, let me handle this."
Swara: "But Maa..."
Sanskar stepped in, pulling Swara aside. "Let her handle it."
Anjali turned to face Rajveer. Before he could utter another word, she slapped him—hard. Not once, but three times in quick succession. She grabbed him by the collar and yanked him close.
Anjali: "You're an educated man, Rajveer, yet you never once questioned your mother's intentions. She killed Janki, slandered me as a woman of loose character, and called my daughter illegitimate—and you stood by, believing her every word. Don't you dare ask me for forgiveness because I will never forgive a spineless creature like you."
