Babaida tells her that he has something to say to her and she assumes he is going to propose. On Holi, while she is waiting on the terrace (with abeer and vermillion), Babaida introduces Sayantika, his new girlfriend. He puts the abeer and vermillion on Mehul and tells her now she has to shoulder the responsibility of not just him but his better half too. Mehul is heartbroken and starts avoiding him. One day, a distressed Babaida hands her a letter, which she takes reluctantly. Three months later, she is told that Babaida committed suicide. After seeing his body, she breaks down.

Her colleague Ananda encourages her to go to an interview at a big corporate company called Unicorn. Mehul does so and is hired. On her first day, she meets her boss, a young man, Ranadeb (Gaurav Chakrabarty). Mehul gives herself a makeover, dressing more provocatively and boldly, and catches Ranadeb's attention. Babaida's mother dies in the meantime. One day, Ranadeb invites her for dinner and tries to sleep with her. Suddenly, his phone rings and Mehul sees his wife is calling him: Sayantika, Babaida's girlfriend.
