Anupamaa: Toshu angrily predicts Anupama’s downfall and vows to surpass her in success

In tonight's episode of Anupamaa, Toshu (Gaurav Sharma) asks his invited friends to try the served food, making a playful suggestion to Vikram about dipping their sandwiches in coffee and requesting some sauce. Suddenly, water spills on Toshu, causing him to angrily accuse Vikram of making his clothes wet. Anupama (Rupali Ganguly), witnessing the scene, angrily throws water on Toshu's face and rebukes him.

Meanwhile, in a conversation, Dimple admires a gift from Titu, while Kavya becomes emotional, recalling Vanraj's past affection and expressing her desire for him to accept Mahi. Dimple reassures her that he will. Kavya then seeks Dimple's advice on makeup, and Dimple encourages her to consider starting a side business in makeup, suggesting she also learn professional techniques. They notice Anupama's photo in the newspaper and feel happy for her, while Kavya hopes Toshu doesn't spoil Anupama's moment of joy.

Toshu faces Anupama's wrath:

Toshu, shocked, asks Anupama if she's in her right mind. She explains that she threw water on him to snap him back to reality. She reminds him that she apologized to a customer on his behalf the previous day, yet today he scolded Vikram for a similar mistake. She informs him that Vikram is the head chef, under whom she works, and that she became a chef thanks to him. She also explains that Yashdeep Sir owns the restaurant and made her a partner. Handing Toshu a waiter’s jacket, she instructs him to wear it and tells his friends that he is a waiter there. She then demands he apologize to Yashdeep, Vikram, and Rahul for his behavior. Toshu reluctantly apologizes. Anupama advises his friends to visit the restaurant as customers and to meet Toshu during his breaks. After they leave, Anupama directs Toshu to distribute untouched food to the homeless and half-eaten food to birds and animals, keeping his sandwich for lunch. Toshu complies but vents his frustration and becomes vengeful.

Anupama apologizes to Vikram, Rahul, and Yashdeep, urging them not to tolerate Toshu’s behavior and suggesting Yashdeep fire him if necessary. Yashdeep reassures her, saying it's fine. He then shares the good news that her photo has been published in the newspaper and informs her that a food critic will visit the restaurant soon. Anupama agrees to handle it, despite it coinciding with Choti’s birthday, determined to excel.

Kavya shares her plans:

Babu Ji suggests getting the invitation card printed to place before God. Vanraj feels there’s plenty of time, and Ishu humorously wonders what Ansh will call him when he becomes a father. Toshu returns home, disrupting Kinjal’s work call. Upset, Kinjal chastises him. Toshu claims that Anupama’s popularity will soon fade and her accolades will disappear. He vows that when she falls, he won't help her. Kinjal, irritated, tells him to stop talking nonsense. Toshu then declares that he will own a big restaurant one day and surpass Anupama in success and fame, leaving Kinjal shocked. Later, Kavya shares her plans to pursue a course in skin treatments, receiving encouragement from the family. The kids compliment her skills, and Babu Ji supports her dream of opening a parlor. Vanraj dismissively calls it a dream, but Kavya counters that every truth begins with a dream, just as Anupama’s success did.

The food critic arrives and praises the dishes, awarding them the highest rating and appreciating the American-style presentation. However, it turns out to be Anupama’s dream. She prays to Kanha Ji to make her dream a reality, dancing joyfully in the kitchen. Anuj enters, sees her dancing, and accidentally catches a spoon she throws while dancing. Anupama apologizes, but Anuj encourages her to keep dancing. In her moment of joy, she shares that the food critic will visit on Choti’s birthday. He assures her of a good rating before leaving, allowing her to continue her dance.

Precap for the next episode:

In the precap, Anupama serves the critic undhiyu biryani, but a cockroach is found in the dish, leading to complaints. The critic declares Anupama’s career over, the trophy is taken away, and the restaurant is shut down.
