Mannat 18th May 2026 Written Update
The episode started with Neetu saying to Vikrant that Dhairya only helped them because of guilt. She said that he did not deserve forgiveness. Vikrant became angry hearing this. He said that actually he was the one who did not deserve forgiveness. He accepted all his mistakes in front of Neetu.
Vikrant said that he left Mannat alone during her pregnancy and even threw his parents out of the house. He said that he deserved punishment for his sins. He also reminded Neetu that she created fake proof against Dhairya which was also a crime. Vikrant said that Dhairya still did not take any revenge on her.
He emotionally said that Dua was his daughter, but Dhairya was the real baba in her life.
Vikrant Warned Neetu
Vikrant asked Neetu to understand Dua’s feelings. He clearly told her that if she forced him to separate Dua from Dhairya, then he would send Mannat and Dua away from his life forever. Mannat immediately took Vikrant away from there to calm him down.
Meanwhile, Yashika became worried seeing Vikrant and Mannat getting closer again. She felt scared that she would never get a place in Vikrant’s life if their problems got solved. She started provoking Neetu against Dhairya again.
Yashika suggested that they should force Dhairya to leave the house. Neetu looked confused and helpless after hearing her words.
Mallika Tried To Create Problems
Yuvi asked Mallika to tell him a story about Lord Krishna. Mallika agreed but inside her heart she felt irritated. She thought that she was only staying in that house because of Yuvi’s support.
While telling the story, she noticed Dhairya listening silently. Mallika used that moment to poison his mind against Mannat. She told him that Vikrant loved everyone deeply and one day he could win Dua’s love too.
Dhairya became emotional and said that Dua was his daughter and she would stay with him only. Mallika again tried to hurt him by saying that Dua might not stay with him forever.
Dua Wanted Dhairya To Smile Again
Later, Dhairya prayed quietly in front of God. Dua noticed sadness on his face and felt bad for him. She sweetly started singing to make him happy. Roni also joined her.
At the same time, Mannat came there happily while holding Vikrant’s hand. Dhairya became upset seeing them together and tried to leave from there. But Mannat stopped him by singing lovingly for him.
Vikrant understood Dhairya’s pain and gave space to Mannat and Dua. Dua then told Mannat that Dhairya was not smiling anymore. She made Mannat promise that nobody would force her to accept Vikrant as her father.
Mannat hugged Dua emotionally after hearing her innocent words.
Vikrant Openly Accepted Dhairya’s Place
Vikrant lovingly promised Dua that he would never force her to call him father. He said that he would wait patiently until she accepted him from her heart.
He accepted that Dua and Dhairya shared a very special bond which nobody could break. Vikrant also said that Dhairya had complete rights on Dua and he would never snatch that relationship away from him.
Later, Vikrant and Mannat went to meet Dhairya. Dhairya was quietly packing his bags. Vikrant apologized sincerely for hurting him and thanked him for saving his life. He hugged Dhairya emotionally.
Vikrant admitted that Dhairya always fulfilled his duty as an elder brother while he himself failed badly. He accepted that fighting for Dua’s custody was wrong because he ignored Dhairya’s deep connection with her.
Mannat also emotionally told Dhairya that loving Vikrant did not mean that she would leave him alone. She said that Vikrant was only becoming part of their family and not taking his place away.
After hearing their emotional words, Dhairya finally agreed to stay with them.
My Review
Today’s episode felt very emotional and heart touching. Vikrant accepting his mistakes honestly was the best part of the episode. Dua’s innocent love for Dhairya also made many scenes feel emotional. The story finally showed some healing in the family, but Dhairya’s pain still looked unfinished. The precap clearly hinted that new problems may start again very soon during Vikrant and Mannat’s wedding track.
