Mannat Today Episode 18 August 2025
The episode begins with Anirudh telling Aishwarya that she is bound to lose and that Mannat will ultimately defeat her. Aishwarya, however, confidently replies that this time things are different. She admits that Mannat is intelligent and always uncovers her lies, but now Mannat is standing by her side. Cleverly, she has shifted all the blame onto Anirudh, making everyone believe he molested her. With her family supporting her, she even risked her own life to strengthen the lie, convincing everyone that she is the victim. Aishwarya recalls how she slit her hand to make it look like Anirudh attacked her, kidnapped her, and that she shot him only in self-defense. Though she once wanted to send him to jail, she now believes he will keep repeating his mistakes. She points out that he has already gone to prison for her once, willing to sacrifice his life for love, but today will be his last day. She then pushes him down.
Meanwhile, Vikrant promises Mannat that she will never have to face anything alone—he will always be by her side and together they can overcome every struggle.
Later, Anirudh sneaks up behind Aishwarya and strangles her, declaring that he is ready to die but will kill her first. Aishwarya defiantly tells him that no one can kill Sonia Khanna. Anirudh retorts that she will ultimately be defeated by Mannat, and that Vikrant will stand with his daughter Mannat, not Mallika. Just then, Aishwarya fires a shot, but Mannat arrives at the scene and collapses unconscious.
Elsewhere, Deepak delivers a courier to Mallika, explaining it was meant for Vikrant but he forgot to hand it over during the puja. Mallika opens it and is shocked to find divorce papers. Devastated, she wonders if Vikrant is leaving her for Mannat. She feels betrayed, believing her mother has already abandoned her for Mannat and now Vikrant is doing the same. Furious, she vows that Mannat will have to pay for this.
Back at the scene, Vikrant and Anirudh rush to help Mannat. Aishwarya, however, twists the situation, demanding that Anirudh stay away from Mannat so everyone believes she is protecting her from him. When Anirudh tries to escape, Vikrant pushes him into the pool. Mannat tends to Aishwarya, while Anirudh desperately pleads with her not to believe Aishwarya’s lies. He insists she is only acting, that nothing happened to her, and reminds Mannat that she once confessed Aishwarya intended to kill them both. Begging for her trust, he says he only returned for his daughter. But Aishwarya fumes, realizing Mannat has spoiled her plan, and soon after, the police arrest Anirudh.
Later, Aishwarya regains consciousness and praises Mannat and Vikrant for saving her life. Vikrant replies that it was his duty. Roni condemns Anirudh for daring to kidnap Aishwarya right under their guards’ watch. Aishwarya pretends to shower affection on Mannat, while Neetu warns that it is unsafe for Aishwarya to remain in the house or even in the city. Privately, Aishwarya feels relieved, certain her truth will never come out if she leaves. She instructs Gagan to return to London, and he agrees. Then, pretending concern, she asks Mannat to accompany her, saying she doesn’t want to disrupt Mallika’s life. Though Mannat refuses for Shruthi’s sake, Gagan promises to take Shruthi with them. Mannat finally agrees, and Aishwarya feels victorious once again.
