Vikrant-Dhairya Clash Over Dua, Custody War Begins as Neetu Pushes Legal Battle
The latest episode of Mannat delivers intense emotional drama as relationships break further and a custody battle begins to take shape. Secrets, misunderstandings, and emotional conflicts push every character to their limits.
Mannat Pleads for Silence About Dua’s Truth
The episode begins with Mannat emotionally telling Vikrant that fate separated them in the past. She explains that Dhairya stood by her during her hardest times and became Dua’s real support system.
However, Vikrant firmly states that Dhairya is only Dua’s biological father, not her real guardian. In response, Mannat reveals that Dua still does not know the full truth about her parentage.
Because of this, she pleads with Vikrant to keep the truth hidden for now. Vikrant, although emotional, agrees and assures her that they will handle the situation slowly and carefully.
Mallika and Yashika Plot Behind the Scenes
Meanwhile, Mallika advises Yashika to stay calm, but Yashika remains suspicious. She believes that Mannat is hiding a major truth from Vikrant.
Moreover, she claims she can clearly sense tension between them. Mallika then encourages her to investigate further and uncover the truth.
At the same time, she adds that Neetu is not like Mannat and will go to any extent to secure Vikrant’s happiness. She also recalls that Neetu has never liked Mannat from the beginning.
Neetu-Roni Clash Over Vikrant and Dhairya
On the other side, Roni strongly confronts Neetu for revealing the truth to Vikrant. He questions Vikrant’s right to claim Dua after abandoning Mannat in the past.
Furthermore, he praises Dhairya for stepping in and raising Dua when Vikrant was absent.
However, Neetu defends herself and explains that Vikrant had been misled for years due to lies told in the past. According to her, if the truth had not been hidden, Vikrant would never have neglected Mannat and Dua.
Dhairya Defends His Role as Dua’s Father
Soon after, Dhairya enters the argument and admits that he feared losing Dua. Therefore, he decided to step in and raise her as his own.
Additionally, he agrees that Vikrant should now be allowed to be part of the family. However, Neetu strongly objects and reminds him that only Vikrant’s parents have the right to decide.
She emphasizes that Mannat is Vikrant’s love, Dua is his blood, and Dhairya is an outsider with no legal or emotional claim.
As tensions rise, Dhairya pleads not to separate him from Dua. Meanwhile, Roni loses patience with Neetu and firmly supports Dhairya. He warns Neetu to stop interfering, which leaves her heartbroken.
Nevertheless, Neetu remains firm and declares that she is doing everything for her son’s happiness.
Dua Becomes Unknowingly Involved
Meanwhile, Dua expresses concern to Bunty, noticing that everyone around her is sad. She cannot understand the reason behind the tension, especially Vikrant’s sadness.
At this moment, Yashika tries to take advantage of the situation. She feeds ice cream to Dua and Bunty and tries to extract information from them.
However, Bunty innocently reveals that Dhairya is upset because Neetu is unwell, while Vikrant is sad because he will soon return to Indore.
Frustrated, Yashika realizes they know nothing useful and walks away, disappointed.
Vikrant, Dhairya, and Mannat Clash Again
Meanwhile, Vikrant emotionally watches Dua from a distance. However, Dhairya immediately stops him and warns him to stay away from his daughter.
He strongly declares that although Vikrant is related by blood, Dhairya is the one who raised her and shaped her life. He reminds Vikrant that he abandoned his family seven years ago.
Furthermore, Dhairya proudly states that Dua has grown into a wonderful child because of his upbringing and love.
Vikrant, although emotional, thanks him for raising his daughter but insists that no one can take away his rights as a biological father.
Mannat Takes a Strong Stand
Soon after, Mannat enters the argument and directly confronts Vikrant. She reminds him that he already abandoned them in the past and has no right to question responsibilities now.
Moreover, she clearly states that while Vikrant has biological rights over Dua, Dhairya holds emotional rights as he raised her with love and care.
This leads to a heated emotional exchange, further deepening the conflict between all three.
Episode Ends
The episode ends on a highly emotional and tense note as relationships remain fractured and unresolved. Meanwhile, a custody battle begins to take shape in the background.

Neetu advises Vikrant to fight for Dua’s custody in court, stating that the legal system will support their claim. This sets the stage for an intense legal and emotional battle.
