This upsets Sunny, and does not go unnoticed by his grandma, who asks Mahek what the reason is. Mahek speaks in confidence with grandma, and shortly thereafter grandma suddenly dies. Watch as events unfold with Mahek getting instantly unpopular with the Khannas and the real reason why Mahek refused to marry Sunny.
