Praful says okay when Dipankar asks him to get a strong animation prepared on Akhil Kapoor’s case as per the details given by Smita. He tells his employees that they have to expose Akhil Kapoor on TV before his PR team activates everyone and cleans his image.
Smita gives Gargi Murder case story details to Anuj. She also tells him that he has to meet Rizwaan Ahmed, Gargi’s swimming coach. Smita politely tells Anuj that she can understand that he is feeling bad. She asks Anuj to think how much Radha would be feeling bad knowing that he stole her story, on which she worked so hard.

Damani tells Radha that he will for sure give her information but it will take little extra time. Radha thanks Damani and disconnects the call. Smita tells Dipankar that he was right as Akhil Kapoor has activated his fans in the media. Seeing Akhil using his wife to clean his image, Dipankar calls Akhil a lousy actor. Anuj meets Juhi at Rizwaan’s house. They start taking Rizwaan’s byte for Gargi murder case.

Later, Juhi shows Rizwaan’s byte to Amina and other employees of Awaaz Bharati. She tells Amina that Zubeda filed an FIR against Rizwaan in 2011 for rape but withdrew it later on. When Juhi tells Amina that Zubeda might have got scared of Rizwaan, Amina angrily tells her that a news channel works on facts, not opinion or feelings. Radha and Amina argue with each other. Amina gets angry and asks Juhi to get the facts on Gargi murder case. Anuj also shows Rizwaan’s byte to Dipankar. Dipankar says Akhil Kapoor’s story will get diluted if they break Gargi’s story. He asks Anuj to work on Gargi’s story more and try making it more interesting. Dipankar also asks Anuj to create trend on social media using #justiceforgargi. He further asks Anuj to bring bytes of Rizwaan’s friends, neighborhood and enemies.

At Awaaz Bharati, Raghav tells Amina that Akhil Kapoor wants to give them an interview and wants to share his side of the story. He says even Radhe Shyam is okay with it. Later, Anuj meets Radha and apologizes to her for stealing her story. Radha tells Anuj that she will give him 3 more womens details, who wants to give a statement against Akhil Kapoor. Anuj says whatever happened, happened for good as Akhil’s story at least reached the public, instead of getting gagged. Radha requests Anuj to help women who are giving statements against Akhil Kapoor, by giving them a voice.
She also agrees to let Anuj still stay at her house on his requests. Amina tells her employees that the gag order has been canceled by the court. Radha gets angrier on knowing that Awaaz Bharati is giving a 1 hour special show/PR story to Akhil Kapoor to let him clean his ruined image. Amina tells Radha that they are helpless. Radha says Awaaz Bharati has become a PR agency for a sexual predator. This angers Amina. Radha tells Amina that she joined a clean news channel, which was known for its insightful investigative reporting.
