Ziya calls Neel and asks him to come by one last time to pick up his stuff which is still lying in Ziya's home. Before Neel arrives, Ziya shreds all of Neel's favorite suits to pieces. When Neel arrives, Ziya's mood changes again and she seduces him. Ziya says that she never acted with starry airs in front of Neel, but Neel says that Ziya was always thinking of the male actors that she was working with, which made him insecure. Ziya says that Neel was never emotionally present in the relationship and was never invested in making it work. Ziya knows that Neel would have asked Nandita to come and pick him up in an hour, and that she would be waiting by the front gate. Ziya again switches on her charm and says that it is their last night together and that they should make it special. Neel and Ziya have sex one last time before Neel moves on the next morning.

Nikhil wants to have a sexual relationship with Anushka, but she doesn't. For their date, Nikhil books a hotel room and wants to have sex, but Anushka pushes him back. Nikhil dumps her in a second.
