Meanwhile Dev has to continue working and he just acquired a land where he will build a new mandir. He has to go see the neighbours and so he sends Keshav because he himself has to take care of his father-in-law. Shastri-ji's condition is critical.
Keshav sees Radhika because actually the mandir is inside the orphanage. She tries to hide but eventually he catches her and tells her that her Father is at the hospital. Even then, she fights with herself and doesn't go out of the orphanage and makes Keshav promise not to tell anyone where she is (the deal is : you want to be a nun you have to cut all ties with your family). She cries and the priest who rescued her understands the situation and organizes a prayer for the sake of the father.
Dev's grandmother calls him and says that they are coming to see Vishaka - don't forget that until now dev hasn't told them yet. But then they discover everything and of course the Uncle, Mrinalini being bad-mouthing the Shastri family. The prayer are a success, Shastri-ji recovers but he is weak.
Dev has to go to the orphanage for dealing about the land and Keshv tries to prevent him from doing that but alas he sees Radhika and he is shocked at the same time happy, he comes everyday to convince her to come back but she refuses. He then tells her there's no need to think about Vishaka, she by herself returned the mangalsutra back. Radhika is shocked but silly girl won't give up. Dev tells Shastri-ji hoping Radhika will come back if her father tells her to but she refuses and her father can't do anything about that. Dev gets fed up and tells her that from now on, you won't be able to say anything, whatever will happen will be by the hands of Kanha. You will go out by yourself. I won't try anything anymore.
Shastri-ji is ashamed of what is happening to his family andd feels responsible and declares that he considers Vishaka dead from now on, she isn't her daughter anymore, he performs the ritual to a deceased person in thename of Vishaka. Evil grandma is getting hysteric, her lovely granddaughter is punished etc.... she keeps defending Vishaka and blaming Radhika. Then the dad thinks that it's unfair, it's his fault too he raised her badly, he has to pay for his sins and so he says that he will leave this world. He is preparing his suicide, near the river, praying and all, he will drown himself into the Gange river.
Dev's family and Evil Grandma and everyone are trying to stop him then Evil Grandma desperate runs to the orphanage and begs Radhika to save his son. Radhika is stunned to see Grandma kneeling in front of her and she runs out to save her father. On the road she encounters a minor accident, but on the car it was Dev so he drives her there. Then she arrives and stops him telling that "he is unfair to do that, she is still alive, he has to be a father for her also".
Everything gets back to normal instead for Radhika who believes she has gone back to before, nothing will be solved. Few days later, Shastri-ji and Radhika help Dev to prepare the new mandir and Shastri-ji and Radhika's mother hear that Dev is nice and because of what happened he won't be able to marry again etc.... They feel guilty and Radhika's mom takes the opportunity of doing the right thing she proposes to her husband :
"why don't we ask the Purohit if they would like to accept Radhika as their Choti Bahu."
