Chintu finds himself drawn towards her and decides to enjoy his life. He lies to her that Vedika is having an affair with Rakesh Yadav, who is actually a student in her class and is besotted with her.

Chintu goes on dates with Tapasya, and though he tries to avoid Vedika, she finally sees the two of them together one day. She keeps this to herself and listens as he lies to her.
