Bi Jee assures Shanaya that she will fulfill all her desires if she throws the knife. Shanaya, still unsure, asks if she can truly trust her. Bi Jee agrees, and Shanaya throws the knife, embracing Bi Jee tightly in a moment of emotion. She tearfully expresses her love for Bi Jee, claiming that no one else loves her as much as Bi Jee does. Bi Jee calms her down, promising that her life will soon be filled with love. Shanaya wonders how that’s possible, as she doesn’t feel it. Bi Jee tells her that she should not let her mind defeat her and should stop comparing herself to Palki. She assures Shanaya that she is beautiful and intelligent. Shanaya is grateful for Bi Jee’s comforting words, thanking her for convincing her so kindly.
Bi Jee urges Shanaya to wipe her tears, insisting they can’t go downstairs in such a state. She reassures Shanaya that she needs to go down as a happy person and not hold any ill will against Palki. Bi Jee promises to teach Shanaya how to deal with Palki later. As they head downstairs, Bi Jee sits Shanaya in front of a mirror to fix her makeup, advising her to leave the past behind. Shanaya begins to adjust her appearance while Bi Jee shares a psychological trick to help her deal with future challenges. Shanaya promises to stay practical and never make any rash decisions. Bi Jee expresses her satisfaction with Shanaya’s promise and asks if she has any questions. Shanaya, wanting to know more, asks about her past with Bi Jee. She recalls how Bi Jee took care of her mother during pregnancy but was disappointed when Shanaya was born instead of a boy. Shanaya reassures Bi Jee that she will always do everything for her and her parents but will not do anything for Palki, as she simply hates her. Bi Jee shares her own frustrations with Palki but praises Shanaya for listening to her. Together, they prepare to leave for downstairs.
Meanwhile, Sunny and Shaurya discuss their plan’s success. Shaurya credits their cousin for providing the chemical-laced cone. Just then, Preeta enters the room, shocking both of them. Shaurya angrily asks how she dared to enter his room, while Preeta throws a beer can onto the floor. Shaurya stands up, furious, demanding to know who called her. He questions her sanity and behavior. Preeta demands that Shaurya come with her and begins pulling him out of the room, with Sunny following them.
Shanaya, meanwhile, wonders where her friend is. She had texted her earlier but can’t find her. Just then, Meera appears from behind, startling Shanaya. After a brief exchange, Shanaya remarks that Meera should have told her about the function so she could have dressed accordingly. Meera compliments Shanaya’s beauty but notices that something seems wrong. Shanaya opens up to Meera, explaining that while today is about her, she is more concerned about her friend’s life and struggles. Meera reveals that she recently suffered a significant financial loss due to a credit card scam. Shanaya reacts, teasing Meera about her shopping habits but soon grows serious when she hears about the scam. Meera explains how she received a call from someone pretending to be from the bank, congratulating her on her new credit card benefits and offering insurance. He asked for her OTP to complete the process, and Meera, thinking it was legitimate, shared it—leading to her losing a large sum of money.
Shanaya listens carefully, warning Meera that such mistakes can lead to devastating losses, as sharing OTPs essentially grants scammers access to everything in one’s wallet. She explains that in such moments, it’s hard to think clearly, but this is exactly what the scammers rely on. Meera admits that she thought the caller was genuinely trying to help, but Shanaya explains that scammers are skilled at sounding helpful while collecting personal information. She further warns that they often prey on people’s greed, getting them to share their OTPs, and later send links that ruin everything. Shanaya advises Meera to report the incident to the authorities by calling 1930 and visiting the nearest bank. She emphasizes the importance of never sharing an OTP with anyone, as these are tactics used by digital scammers to manipulate victims.
Meera listens attentively, realizing her mistake. Shanaya also cautions against entertaining such calls, explaining that scammers will often claim to have digitally arrested the person or will use fear tactics to get them to comply. She shares that some victims have even gone so far as to commit suicide, which shows how dangerous these scams can be. Shanaya advises Meera to always verify the contact number and, if in doubt, go to the bank directly to verify the legitimacy of the person calling. She reminds Meera to delete any suspicious messages and not respond to unfamiliar numbers. Meera acknowledges that the scammers often call from private numbers, and Shanaya confirms that going to the bank is the safest way to handle such situations.
In the end, Shanaya encourages Meera to stay vigilant and protect herself from future scams, promising to be there for her. She reassures her that this advice applies to everyone, and they must all stay aware of these digital threats.
