Dharma tells Nandini (Shweta Basu Prasad) that Chitralekha is being forced to get married to Bindusar (Siddharth Nigam). She tells her that Chitra loves Bhadraketu but her parents are against their alliance. Nandini decides to speak to Bindusar. Dharma asks her to talk to Chandra (Rajat Tokas), instead. Nandini tells her that Bindusar might look cruel but he is quite emotional from inside. She goes and tells Bindusar about Bhadraketu and Chitralekha’s relationship and requests him to not get married to her.

He asks her why should he make a sacrifice for Bhadraketu. He tells her that marriages are not always done for love, sometimes they are done just to strenghten one’s kingdom. He tells her that he will not go against Chandra’s decision and will marry Chitralekha. Nandini gives him an open challenge and says that she will never let him marry Chitra. Apama overhears their entire conversation and decides to go and tell everything to Helena.

Adonus assures Helena that Bindusar will not run away from his wedding, this time. Helena scolds him for leaving his brother alone and asks him to go and stay with him. Apama tells everything to Helena. She gets shocked and starts panicking. Helena asks her to somehow stop Nandini from meeting Chandra. Chitra gives her bridal lehenga to Dharma and asks her to take her place on the mandap. Dharma tells her that she cannot do this.

Chitra tells her that she knows Bindusar will never listen to Nandini. Chitra tells her that she will kill herself if they get her married to anyone else other than Bhadraketu. She tells Dharma that she knows everything about her and Karthikey’s love affair and asks her to help her. She asks her to wear her clothes so that she gets some time to escape from the palace. She tells her that there is no need for her to get married to Bindusar and asks her to reveal the entire truth to everyone once she escapes. Dharma hesitantly agrees while she runs away.

Helena takes Bindusar to the mandap. Apama pretends to faint and asks Nandini to take her to her room. Helena sees Chitra running out of the palace and asks Adonus to take Bindusar to the mandap. Helena gets shocked to see Dharma dressed like a bride. Nandini asks the servants to take care of Apama and runs to meet Chandra. Helena tells Apama that Bindusar will now get married to Dharma, not Chitra as she has already run away. Nandini tries to speak to Chandra but he doesn’t let her say anything.
