Mannat 12th May 2026 Written Update: Dua Learns Vikrant Is Her Real Father As Court Gives Custody Shock
The episode begins with intense courtroom drama as Dhairya desperately tries to defend himself against the accusations. He emotionally tells the judge that Neetu trapped him deliberately and framed him using fake evidence. Dhairya angrily questions Neetu about how she could betray him after everything he did for the family. He says he never accepted money from anyone and has no idea who the man in the video was. According to him, the entire setup was planned to separate him from Dua. Mannat stands frozen in shock after hearing everything. She feels deeply hurt that Dhairya hid such a major truth from her and even Dua lied to her throughout the situation.
Mannat emotionally breaks down in court and says everyone has snatched her daughter away from her. Neetu immediately interferes and reminds Mannat that Vikrant is Dua’s real father, not Dhairya. Dua becomes shocked after hearing the truth openly for the first time. Mannat cries before the judge and says nobody understands a mother’s pain. She says she raised Dua since birth, knows every little detail about her life, and cannot live separated from her daughter. The judge warns Mannat not to create chaos inside the courtroom and asks her to control herself.
Dhairya suddenly loses control and shouts that Dua is his daughter emotionally, no matter what anyone says legally. He insists the evidence against him is fake. However, the judge says she can only make a decision based on legal proof presented before the court. Finally, the judge announces the heartbreaking verdict — Vikrant receives full custody of Dua. The judge allows Mannat to meet Dua whenever she wants as her mother but clearly states that Dhairya has no legal rights over the child anymore and cannot meet her officially.
Dua gets shattered hearing the decision. She cries loudly and says Dhairya is her real father in every way that matters to her. She refuses to accept the court’s judgment. Neetu again reminds her that Vikrant is her biological father. Mannat completely loses her temper and shouts at Neetu for emotionally manipulating a child just to reunite her with Vikrant. The judge scolds Mannat once again and says bringing a child into such a traumatic court situation itself proves that the custody decision was correct. Dua runs away from the courtroom in emotional shock while everyone panics.
Outside, Mannat desperately searches for Dua everywhere. Meanwhile, Kumar congratulates Vikrant for winning custody, but Vikrant looks disturbed instead of happy. While walking on the road emotionally broken, Dua suddenly faints. Vikrant notices her in time and rushes to save her before something terrible happens.
Elsewhere, Mannat furiously confronts Neetu and calls her a vicious woman who ruined everyone’s peace in the name of love. She accuses Neetu of destroying Vikrant’s life earlier and now destroying Dua’s life too just to satisfy her obsession with reuniting Mannat and Vikrant. Yashika secretly tries provoking Neetu further against Mannat, but surprisingly Neetu blames Dhairya more than Mannat for the entire situation.
Soon, Mannat informs Roni that Dua is missing. Dhairya bitterly tells Mannat that he had already warned her they would eventually snatch Dua away from them. At the same time, Neetu arrives with the police and demands Dhairya’s arrest. She accuses him of hiding Dua and claims he can do anything out of desperation. Mannat immediately defends Dhairya and refuses to let the police humiliate him.
The tension rises further when Vikrant finally arrives with Dua safely. Dua immediately hugs Dhairya tightly and loudly declares that he is her father no matter what anyone says. Dhairya refuses to leave Dua and insists on taking her away with him. Neetu again interferes and reminds everyone that Dhairya has no legal right over Dua anymore. Mannat and Neetu get into another ugly confrontation in front of everyone.
At this point, Vikrant finally explodes in anger — not at Mannat or Dhairya, but at Kumar. He angrily asks why the custody case was not withdrawn despite his clear instructions earlier. Dhairya refuses to trust Vikrant anymore. Mannat then asks Dhairya to calm down and take Dua away from the chaos for some time.
Finally, Vikrant reveals the shocking truth to Mannat. He says he had no idea about the fake video or Neetu’s planning. According to him, someone tricked him by sending a fake police station call regarding Aishwarya, deliberately keeping him distracted from the courtroom developments. He says he tried to show Mannat proof earlier too. Mannat emotionally says she believes him now. Vikrant realizes Neetu manipulated the entire situation behind his back. Completely heartbroken, he scolds his own mother for ruining everything once again through her obsession. Mannat emotionally disowns Neetu completely.
The episode ends with relationships shattered, trust broken, and Dua emotionally trapped between the people she loves most.

Today’s episode delivered one of the strongest emotional courtroom dramas in recent episodes. Dua learning the truth about Vikrant and Dhairya became heartbreaking to watch. Mannat’s breakdown, Dhairya’s helplessness, and Vikrant finally standing against Neetu gave the episode strong emotional depth.
