Today's episode of Ishqbaaz starts with Shivay(Nakuul Mehta) getting even more confused as Anika(Surbhi Chandna) helps him with getting ready. Shivay asks her why she is so calm and happy today. Anika prepares to tell him something, but they hear Bhavya walk in as she is panicking. Bhavya says that Rudra is nowhere to be found and he disappeared without leaving any message too.

Soon Om and Shivay get to work calling Rudra's friends, and Bhavya cries as Anika asks her if they fought. Bhavya says they did not fight and they just had a normal conversation in the morning. Later Bhavya too gets to work with her sources, and she tries tracking Rudra's phone. Shivay and Om get on the road. Bhavya informs them about Rudra phone been tracked.

Om and Shivay arrive at a bar and are shocked to find Rudra dancing away with two girls. They confront him, and he starts wailing away about his life. They pour some water on him and then take him out. There now Rudra relates his sad story in between his wailing. He says that in the morning Bhavya fainted and then said she felt like vomiting and also wanted to have something sour.

Rudra speaks about how he went to the kitchen to get some lime juice and there Dadi told him that this must be good news. Rudra joined the dots and now asks his brothers to do the same. Om and Shivay take some time but finally understand. Rudra says that he did not want a child right now and that he will have to share everything from Bhavya to their room with a child. Shivay and Om too freak out.

They try to console Rudra, but they are in two minds about this too. Anika calls Shivay to find out about Rudra and Shivay says that Rudra is with them and he is fine. Bhavya wants to speak to him, but Shivay says that Rudra will talk to Bhavya once he is back. Anika is left thinking and wonders what Shivay is hiding. Shivay, Om and Rudra sit in the park as they see children playing around and also imagine themselves as fathers.
