Mannat Update: Aishwarya’s Lies, Vikrant’s Shocking Confession

In the latest episode of Mannat, aired on August 26, 2025, the drama escalates as Aishwarya’s cunning schemes begin to surface, putting Mannat in a difficult position. While Mannat grows more suspicious, Anirudh sends a desperate message, and Vikrant makes a shocking move. The episode is a whirlwind of secrets, accusations, and unexpected confessions that leave multiple relationships hanging in the balance.

Aishwarya’s Deception Comes to Light

The episode opens with Aishwarya putting on a facade of kindness. She deceptively praises Mannat in front of Mallika, telling her to learn about responsibility from Mannat. However, Mannat’s instincts tell her something is wrong. When she checks on Aishwarya, who claims to have just woken up, Mannat notices her dirty heels, a clear sign that she has been out.

This small clue adds to a growing mountain of suspicion. Meanwhile, Shalini overhears a chilling conversation. She hears Aishwarya confidently tell Mallika that Vikrant will always belong to her, no matter what. This statement solidifies Shalini’s fears that Aishwarya is not just manipulative but is actively plotting something dangerous against others.

Shalini’s discovery is a critical turning point. She realizes that Aishwarya’s actions are driven by a selfish and potentially harmful agenda, prompting her to watch Aishwarya more closely.

A Desperate Plea and a Disturbing Discovery

While suspicion grows around Aishwarya, another crisis unfolds. Varun learns from the police inspector that Anirudh has escaped from custody. Soon after, Anirudh contacts Varun, claiming his life is in grave danger and that he must speak with Mannat to clear up serious misunderstandings.

Driven by this new information, Mannat and Shalini decide to review security footage from a recent event to find answers. Their search yields shocking results. They discover several key clues that connect the dots in a troubling way.

• They spot an unknown girl tampering with a crane at the event location.
• Mannat has a sudden flashback and remembers seeing Mallika disguised in a staff uniform that day.
• This discovery creates a clear and disturbing link between Aishwarya, Mallika, and the danger surrounding Anirudh.

The footage suggests a coordinated effort to harm someone, and all signs point towards Aishwarya being the mastermind behind the conspiracy.

A Clash of Hearts and Loyalties

Varun arrives to deliver Anirudh’s message to Mannat, creating a tense confrontation. He tells her that Anirudh truly loves her and has been risking his own safety to protect her. He reveals that there have been two attempts on Anirudh’s life, strongly suggesting Aishwarya is the one responsible. However, Shalini finds this hard to believe and defends Aishwarya, arguing that no woman would lie about such serious matters.

The argument intensifies when Vikrant appears and confronts Varun. He accuses Varun of manipulating Mannat’s innocence for his own purposes. Mannat, caught in the middle, reminds Vikrant that his unresolved marriage to Mallika complicates any potential relationship between them. Vikrant dismisses her concern, promising he will end his marriage soon.

Vikrant’s Shocking and Unforeseen Move

Feeling defeated after failing to convince Mannat, Varun informs Anirudh, leaving him heartbroken. Varun encourages his friend not to lose hope, but the situation looks bleak.

In a completely unexpected twist, Vikrant decides to take matters into his own hands. He surprises Mannat by abducting her, causing her to panic and believe she is under attack. However, his intentions are not violent. Once he has her alone, Vikrant confesses his deep love for her, explaining that he wants to celebrate the Teej puja with her as a way to honor their bond. This bold and reckless confession leaves Mannat stunned, ending the episode on a major cliffhanger.
