His Dadi says that she'll try to resolve the matter. She goes to Qudsiya's house to talk about it but as her father's health was becoming weaker she couldn't. He says that as long Qudsiya is happy and married, his heart beats would actually beat. Dadi takes Qudsiya back home.

He goes to office where Aaliyan's father insult him and his daughter which results in him getting heart attack after which he eventually dies. Qudsiya gets depressed and breaks down in front of Aaliyan. Aaliyan supports her and consoles her. Later he returns to his house where everyone is really angry with him.

He says that "Pehle tum divorce nahi chahti thi aur ab mai ...mai tumhe divorce nahi dunga". She again says to give her a divorce. He holds her hand, holds her closer, and says that she is his wife. She says being a wife does not mean that whenever he wants he can hold her hands and whenever he wants he can leave. He apologizes to her.
