Vikrant’s eyes turned emotional in the courtroom when he spoke about his daughter for the first time. He felt broken after learning that Dua was his child and this truth stayed hidden from him for years. Mannat also stood strong and answered every question without fear. The court room became heavy with pain, anger, and old memories as both fought for Dua with tears in their eyes.

Mannat Serial 7th May 2026 Written Update
The episode started with Vikrant remembering Yashika’s advice. He told the judge that he wanted to fight the case alone without any support. The judge allowed him to continue. Vikrant emotionally shared that he only wanted his daughter back in his life. He said he never knew that he had a daughter for seven years.
Vikrant added that everyone kept this truth away from him. He recently met Dua and felt shocked after learning the reality. He accepted that Dhairya supported Mannat and his parents during their difficult days. He also said that Mannat stayed close to Dhairya because she felt thankful towards him. Vikrant believed that Dhairya slowly tried to separate his family from him.
The judge reminded Vikrant that Mannat wanted to stay with Dhairya and her choice also mattered. Vikrant became emotional and admitted that he was scared to lose Mannat and Dua forever.
Vikrant Spoke About Dua’s Rights
Vikrant told the judge that if he had known about Mannat’s pregnancy earlier, he would never have stayed away from Dua. He said every child had the right to know about their real father. He wanted Dua to know the complete truth about her life.
At home, Dhairya waited for Mannat. Mallika started teasing him and said that Vikrant was rich and powerful, so winning the case would be easy for him. Dhairya warned her to stop talking like that. He trusted Mannat and believed she could handle everything.
Mallika then reminded him that Mannat still loved Vikrant. She said fate kept bringing them together again and again. According to her, Vikrant, Mannat, and Dua were meant to become a family one day. Her words badly hurt Dhairya.
Dhairya Lost His Temper
Mallika continued speaking against Dhairya and told him to leave before Mannat returned to Vikrant. Dhairya became angry after hearing this. In frustration, he suddenly demanded Mallika to marry him so she could stay in the house with rights. Mallika got shocked and walked away silently.
Meanwhile, in court, Mannat requested the judge to let her question Vikrant herself. Vikrant became nervous because he feared that Mannat might reveal painful truths from the past.
Neetu tried to calm him down and said that Mannat still loved him and would never insult him publicly.
Mannat Questioned Vikrant
Mannat strongly told the judge that Dhairya was not the reason she hid Dua’s truth. According to her, Vikrant himself was responsible for everything. She reminded him how they once sat together for marriage but he later cancelled the wedding.
She also reminded him how he threw his parents out of the house and even sent his own mother to jail. Vikrant shouted that Vishaka was responsible for those situations. Mannat immediately replied that he always believed outsiders instead of trusting his own family.
Mannat emotionally said that Vikrant only trusted proof and evidence, never relationships. She questioned how he could protect Dua when he failed to protect his own loved ones.
Mannat Defended Dhairya
Mannat then shared how Vikrant left her alone during pregnancy. She said Dhairya saved her life and supported everyone during their worst phase. He gave them shelter and raised Dua with love and care.
Mannat clearly told the judge that money alone could not make someone a good father. She feared that Vikrant might again doubt her character in future and she never wanted Dua to suffer the same pain she faced.
Vikrant lost control after hearing her words and shouted at Mannat inside the courtroom. The judge immediately warned him and said such behaviour could affect the custody decision badly.
The episode ended on a very emotional and tense note.
My Review
Today’s episode felt emotional and intense from start to end. Mannat’s strong answers in court became the biggest highlight for me. Vikrant also looked genuinely hurt after learning the truth about Dua. The court scenes carried good emotions and kept the story interesting. Dhairya’s anger showed that he was slowly losing control. I feel the next episode may bring a bigger emotional fight between Vikrant and Mannat before the final decision comes.
