Anupamaa: Adhik's sinister plan to use Pakhi as a puppet

Tonight's Anupamaa episode begins with a tense encounter between Romil (Viraj Kapoor) and Adhik (Adhik Mehta). Adhik warns Romil, hinting that he narrowly escaped jail this time, but it might not be the case next time, and he takes leave. Romil, disheartened, defends himself, asserting that he's not a thief and hasn't stolen anything. Anupama (Rupali Ganguly) enters the scene and expresses her trust in Romil, telling him she knows he's innocent while applying an ice pack to Romil's face. When asked how Anupama knows, she compares herself to the lie detecter; she asks him to go to the room and pray to Kanha ji as she will handle the situation. Romil greets Thank you, as no one has ever trusted him.

Anupama's interrogation:

Anupama recalls how Adhik and Barkha shattered when she mentioned the Police investigation and its repercussions. Meanwhile, Adhik enters the kitchen. While offering a plate of sweets, Anupama continues questioning Adhik's certainty about the briefcase theft. She skillfully traps Adhik in his own words, highlighting his mistakes. Just as the tension mounts, Pakhi (Muskan Bamne) enters, and Anupama doesn't hold back, confronting Pakhi about her tendency to speak up on irrelevant matters. Pakhi makes a serious accusation, blaming Anupama for causing a rift between her and Adhik. She issues a warning, suggesting that she might take extreme measures, which could potentially leave Anupama grappling with a heavy sense of responsibility and guilt. Adhik asks Anupama to close this matter as he fears Pakhi's anger. In a moment of sheer authority, Anupama warns Adhik that he should fear her more than Pakhi's anger. She hints at her unwavering determination to uncover the truth.

Preparations for Raksha Bandhan:

Meanwhile, at the Shah residence, preparations for Raksha Bandhan are underway. Baa asks Kinjal (Nidhi Shah) to wake up early, and there's uncertainty about whether Pakhi will join the celebration. Family members express their excitement and disagreements about inviting Adhik, whom Vanraj (Sudhanshu Pandey) firmly opposes. Kavya (Madalsa Sharma) also expresses her desire to make a carrot cake for Choti, leading to arguments within the family.

Anupama and Anuj's conversation:

Anupama confides in Anuj (Gaurav Khanna) about Romil's innocence and Adhik's deceitful tactics. Anuj is taken aback by the revelation, and it becomes evident that the battle between the two families is intensifying.

Adhik's sinister plan:

On the other hand, Adhik and Barkha hatch a sinister plan to use Pakhi as a pawn in their quest to gain control over the Kapadia empire. They discuss their strategy while maintaining a facade of innocence, plotting to oust Romil and Pakhi from their lives as a "gift." Anupama remains resolute in her mission to expose Adhik's true intentions. She faces off with Adhik in front of the Shah family, resulting in Pakhi's departure from the house.

Precap:

Anupama questions Adhik about Pakhi's whereabouts. In response, Adhik makes a serious accusation against her in front of the Shah family, asserting that Anupama has forced Pakhi to leave their home. Anupama, undaunted by the accusation, asks if she would have remained silent. Adhik, with an air of authority, expresses his fear for Pakhi. Anupama, firmly and resolutely, countered with a simple "No."
