Next day, Iffat washes clothes and puts them on the terrace and her brother who was flying kite there says that kite flying is a difficult task and taunts that her work at home is much easy as she does only cooking, washing clothes. She then challenges him for a kite fight on the context that if she loses she will give him her father’s watch and if he loses, then he has to live the life of Iffat for a day. Iffat speaks with Rajkummar rao (the host) and she says that she took that decision to challenge and she got one opportunity to fight and she didn’t want to leave that chance even for the sake of losing her father’s watch. Iffat and Basit participates in the flying competition and Iffat is supported by her mother and they challenge each other on the sky and Iffat wins and Basit’s kite is lost in the sky. Iffat becomes happy as well as her mother and grandfather. Iffat speaks that whatever happened to her she didn’t want the same to her younger sister Jannat thats the reason she took that challenge. When her grandfather drinks tea, he finds salt instead of sugar and she laughs a bit on her brother as he prepared or served that tea. She then wants his brother to bring Idli from Raheem Uncle’s shop. She then gives a Burqa to him so that he goes out with a burqa. Her grandfather suggests that he has to wear a Burqa as he has lost the Kite challenge and as promised has to live the life of Iffat and hence wear Burqa.

Basit goes out wearing a burqa and Tahir again interrupts thinking him as his sister Iffat and touches his hand and talks about wearing a bracelet for her. He then starts to harass and says that he will see his brother and uncle and makes fun at them. Basit fights and runs away from there. He comes home and informs them about the harassment that Tahir meted out to him as he though him to be Iffat. Iffat asks her uncle if she gets harassed by Tahir then she is to be blamed but if Basit is harassed then Tahir is to be blamed. Her uncle becomes furious and even warns to kill her. At that moment, her grandfather steps in and wants to deal the issue with Tahir directly and takes her outside without a Burqa. Her mother doesn’t want them to go outside. Her grandfather confronts Tahir and wants Iffat to slap her hard. He gives her confidence to slap him and says that he is there to support him. She slaps him hard twice while covering her face with Dupatta. Her grandfather speaks to Tahir that if he sees again a women with bad intentions and looks then he will take out his eyes.
