Mannat 2nd July 2025 Written Update: Victory Trick. The episode begins with Aishwarya proudly thinking to herself that everything in Salooja’s mansion belongs to her now. She feels triumphant, believing that Mannat has to pay for messing with her, and that soon she will take over both the Salooja house and business. Her thoughts are filled with self-praise as she thinks she has won once again.
Meanwhile, Mannat tells Shruti that she doesn’t need to visit the hospital anymore as she is feeling better now. Shruti, however, questions her suspiciously, asking what Aishwarya demanded from her in return for saving Shruti’s life. Mannat pretends she doesn’t understand the question, but Shruti knows her sister too well. She tells Mannat that Aishwarya never gives anyone anything without expecting something in return. Mannat continues to deny it and tries to change the topic.
While sitting beside Shruti, Mannat notices the newspaper announcing Vikrant and Mallika’s wedding. Her heart sinks seeing the news. At the same time, Ravinder is seen secretly following Mannat’s car from a distance, suspicious about her movements.
Later, at Salooja’s mansion, Aishwarya scolds Deepak for not decorating the house for Mallika’s wedding. Deepak informs her that Vikrant ordered them to remove the mandap. Aishwarya is taken aback, wondering what Vikrant is planning. Meanwhile, Vikrant is lost in his thoughts, burdened by guilt and confusion.
Back at Shruti’s place, Shruti tells Mannat to return to Salooja mansion. Mannat firmly refuses, saying she has decided to go to Delhi and start a new life there, away from all the drama. Shruti observes Mannat’s sadness after seeing Mallika’s wedding news and understands her pain. She tells Mannat that Aishwarya must have forced her to choose between her love and her mother’s life, and Mannat chose her mother. She reminds Mannat that she sacrificed her happiness for her mother. Mannat, holding back her tears, says she only needs her mom.
On the other side, Vikrant is battling guilt and heartbreak. He feels shattered thinking Mannat left him. He thinks about Mallika and feels guilty towards her, too. He remembers nothing from the previous day’s events, but feels disgusted imagining taking advantage of any woman. He thinks about his parents who aren’t talking to him anymore. Deep down, Vikrant knows he is in love with Mannat. He realises that marrying Mallika will be unfair as their wedding is nothing but a business deal. He tells himself that he needs Mannat, not Mallika.
Later, Aishwarya approaches Mallika and asks what is going on. Mallika hugs her tightly and starts crying. She tells Aishwarya that Vikrant has called off the wedding decorations and was trying to confess everything to Roni. Mallika admits that Vikrant misunderstood her as Mannat and she took advantage of that misunderstanding to force him into marriage. Even though she promised him nothing happened between them, Vikrant still loves Mannat and wants nothing to do with her.
Aishwarya dismisses Mallika’s concerns coldly and says that love doesn’t matter – money does. She tells Mallika that even if Vikrant falls in love with a dog, it wouldn’t matter as long as they get the Salooja wealth and live a luxurious life. Mallika tells Aishwarya that she has already published the wedding news in the newspapers.
Kiran scolds Aishwarya for encouraging Mallika instead of stopping her wrongdoings. Gagan enters and questions Aishwarya about her whereabouts the previous day. Aishwarya lies that she was at the temple praying for her daughter’s happiness and now her prayers are fulfilled. Gagan knows she is lying and thinks to himself that no one can save her from Mannat’s wrath now.
Later, Mannat shares her worries with Shruti, wondering if she is becoming like Aishwarya. Shruti reassures her that she only acted that way to save her mother’s life and that doesn’t make her like Aishwarya. Mannat promises herself that she will never become like her cunning aunt.
At Salooja mansion, wedding rituals begin half-heartedly. Raveena tells Puneet that Aishwarya dreamt of arranging a grand wedding for Mallika, but it’s ending in chaos. Puneet says Vikrant loves Mannat and he doubts he will go through with this marriage.
Aishwarya forcefully brings Mallika to the mandap. Gagan tells his mother that Aishwarya is forcing Vikrant to marry Mallika for money, ignoring love. He says she will never understand the value of true love. Meanwhile, Roni threatens Vikrant to come down and marry Mallika immediately.
Aishwarya, standing proudly, thinks to herself that finally her daughter is going to marry Vikrant, and once again, she has won.
