In the episode of “Kaise Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye” aired on July 26, 2024, the story begins with Bhavani expressing her gratitude towards Babita for all her help. She announces that Babita will receive the first Mangal Gauri Tika. Curious guests inquire about this ritual, and Bhavani promises they will soon witness it.
Bhavani asks Amruta to apply Haldi Kumkum to Babita. Dildar congratulates Amruta, acknowledging she is performing this ritual for her husband. Babita, complying with Bhavani’s request, allows Amruta to proceed. Amruta applies Haldi Kumkum to Babita, and Bhavani then instructs Babita to reciprocate the ritual with Amruta. Bhavani also offers Laddoos to Babita, who excuses herself and leaves the scene.
Babita confronts Priyanka, questioning if this was her plan all along. Priyanka feigns ignorance, expressing her surprise at Amruta’s unexpected involvement. Meanwhile, Amruta explains the significance of the Mangal Gauri Pooja to Babita’s guests.
Bhavani asks Ishika if she will participate in the Pooja. Harsh makes a snide comment about Ishika, and Priyanka remarks that sometimes, despite best efforts, Poojas don’t yield benefits for everyone. Ishika confidently responds that they will see who benefits today, Amruta or Priyanka. Amruta, undeterred, states that time will tell and leaves with Anjali.
Bhavani and Amruta continue preparing for the Mangal Gauri Pooja. Realizing there are no matches to light the Diya, Amruta heads to the Ahuja house to fetch some. In the kitchen, she finds Deepika looking dejected and learns that Deepika would rather join the Pooja than stay at the party. Amruta suggests Deepika join the Pooja when the party is in full swing, and Deepika agrees.
Dildar approaches Amruta, curious about her plan. Amruta shows her a champagne bottle, and Dildar empties it into the sink, refilling it with water. Amruta then takes the matches and leaves. Dildar later discreetly places the champagne bottle back at the party and makes a snide comment to Babita about Priyanka.
Babita questions Priyanka about the champagne. Priyanka assures her it’s ready and serves it to the guests. The guests quickly realize they are drinking water, not champagne, and complain to Babita. Dildar insinuates that Priyanka did this to embarrass Babita in front of the guests. Babita angrily pulls Priyanka aside for an explanation. Priyanka blames Amruta for the mishap and makes a sarcastic remark. Ishika reassures Babita, saying she has ordered new cake and champagne, which are on the way. To keep the guests entertained, Priyanka suggests they dance until the refreshments arrive.
Priyanka announces a dance performance by herself and Virat, but the guests notice Virat is missing and go to find him. Priyanka, applying her medicated lipstick, plans to seduce Virat to secure her position in the house.
Amruta encounters Virat in his room and starts a conversation. Hearing someone approaching, Amruta hides. The guests find Virat and urge him to join the dance with Priyanka. Reluctantly, Virat agrees and leaves with them.
The episode ends with the party in full swing, the guests eagerly awaiting the cake and champagne, and the tension between the characters at a high.
