On Muskaan and Rohan's wedding day, when police arrest Rohan for killing his first wife. Naina was actually the one who killed Rohan's first wife, but she gathered evidence against Rohan and showed it to the police on their wedding day, so that their marriage woud be delayed. Kesar and Arjun support Rohan and manage Naina to admit killing Rohan's first wife. Naina then commits suicide. Muskaan and Rohan get together. Then, on the day of their marriage, Muskaan decides not to marry Rohan. Abhimanyu starts to love Muskaan and confessed his love for her. Then he rapes her because of this reason. This is taken to court. Meanwhile, Katrina is blackmailing Nupur about the truth of Harman's blindness being revealed. In the end Nupur tells Harman that she is the reason of him becoming blind.
