Naina always tries to poison Neeta's mind by telling various examples of how charming young men play the game of love to cheat innocent young woman to steal away their property and succeeds to install bit of fear in Neeta's mind. One day she takes Neeta to a lawyer where Sudheer was preparing property documents. Naina tells Reeta that Sudheer was trying to change Neeta's property to his name. Reeta confronts Sudheer about that but it is reveled that Sudheer was preparing documents to transfer everything to Anil as he doesn't want to touch a penny of Neeta's money.
Neeta feels bad for insulting him like that but Sudhir, feeling hurt goes away.
