Anupamaa: Rahi Finally Realises Shruti Is at Fault, Not Anu

Tonight's Anupamaa episode opens with Anupama trying to call Prem, but he refuses to answer. She becomes anxious and fears that he has left in anger and may be taking out his frustration on Rahi. Meanwhile, Rahi tells Prem that he has already made every decision for her and even spoken on her behalf. She says her love for him goes beyond right and wrong and that she is ready to leave everything behind for him. Anupama then insists that Prem meet her.

Prem asks why he should come, and Anupama replies that she also deserves answers. He agrees to meet and asks her to send the time and address. Rahi grows nervous, wondering what Anupama wants to discuss with Prem and how the meeting will affect everyone. Digvijay also worries that Prem may lose his temper again.

Elsewhere, Prerna is decorating her room when Ansh arrives. She asks him to come later because she is busy, but he offers to help. Prerna says it is not his responsibility, and Ansh replies that it should not be hers alone either. Hurt by everything happening around them, Prerna says their first day together has been spoiled because the entire Shah family is focused only on Prem and Anupama.

Before leaving for the meeting, Digvijay encourages Anupama and says she should make Prem understand that he cannot destroy her spirit. Anupama thanks him for standing by her.

At the same time, Prerna decides that the family needs to realize they cannot ignore other people’s emotions forever. She tells Ansh to stay out of it and says that sometimes thinking about oneself is necessary. In an emotional moment, Ansh finally confesses his love for her.

Prem arrives and returns Anupama’s diary. She tells him that if she had wanted it back, she could have asked anyone else to bring it. Prem sarcastically asks whether she called him only to insult him again. Anupama says that lately he has been insulting himself through his actions. Prem mocks her, saying she is known for slapping people and may have called him for the same reason.

Anupama calmly asks why he has changed so much and why he now carries so much hatred toward her. She directly questions him about burning the form and asks what pushed him toward this downfall.

Meanwhile, Shruti asks Rahi to take her medicine, but Rahi says no medicine can heal the pain Shruti has caused. Shruti tries to justify Prem’s actions, saying he did not steal but merely tried to get ahead. Rahi refuses to accept the excuse and says wrong is wrong. She accuses Shruti of taking Prem away from her.

Back at the meeting, Prem warns Anupama not to lecture him again. He says he is no longer ashamed of crossing limits and that she should have been prepared for harsh words before meeting him. Anupama replies that she has come only to talk about Rahi. Prem says Rahi is standing with him, but Anupama points out that Rahi is with him because she loves him, not because he is right.

Shruti again tries to reason with Rahi, but Rahi firmly tells her to fight her own battles with Anupama instead of using Prem and her as pawns. She admits that Anupama’s stand is fair and says they are the ones behaving dishonestly. Rahi asks Shruti to stop provoking Prem and stay away from him.

Anupama reminds Prem that his real dream was to open a café and asks when that dream turned into an obsession to defeat her. Prem says Rahi hates Anupama and he will make sure that hatred never fades. Anupama challenges him, saying he is free to compete with her, but she will bring him back to the right path and show him the strength of a mother.

In the precap, Prem throws Rahi out of the house. Anupama stands beside Rahi. When Rahi says Anupama herself has no home, Anupama declares that the competition has become deeply personal for her. She says she will build a home with her own talent and believes every woman should have a place she can call her own. Anupama vows to win and create a house for herself.
