Anupamaa: Anupama advises Bharti on marriage, shares her own experience of betrayal

Star Plus' Anupamaa has taken a fresh turn with a short leap, shifting the focus between Anupama's new journey in Mumbai and the ongoing tensions in Ahmedabad involving the Shahs and Kotharis. While many viewers were expecting an emotional reunion between Anupama and her daughter Rahi, things unfolded differently, Rahi made it clear she doesn't want her mother back in her life. As Anupama slowly begins to rebuild her routine in Mumbai, life continues to be complicated in Ahmedabad. From Parathana's struggles with her pregnancy and separation from Gautam to Mahi's growing desperation to win over Prem, and Parag supporting Rahi's dream of a dance academy, the drama is far from over. Amid all this, Moti Baa returns and puts Mahi in her place, warning her to stop interfering in Prem and Rahi's lives. Meanwhile, Anupama and Prem share an unexpected emotional moment in Mumbai when he breaks down in front of her and finally tells her she was never to blame for Aryan's death.

In the upcoming episode, Bharti's husband, Mangesh, shows up at her doorstep unexpectedly. Furious at his return, Bharti grabs his hand and forcefully pushes him out of the house, asking him to leave. But he refuses and tightly holds her hand, trying to intimidate her with his words. As the situation starts getting tense, Anupama quickly rushes out to call the other women from the neighbourhood.

Meanwhile, Bharti's husband forcefully tries to drag her along with him. When she resists, he raises his hand to slap her. But just before he can, the neighbourhood women arrive in large numbers, some carrying brooms, some with rolling pins, and others with kitchen tools in hand. Sarita boldly steps forward and tells him that this area is ruled not by brothers, but by brave women. Together, the ladies stand up to him and throw him out of the house.

Later, Bharti breaks down in front of Anupama, expressing her confusion and helplessness. She wonders if she should give up and settle with a man like Mangesh just for the sake of society or stability. Anupama calmly tells her not to lose hope. She explains that a woman can share many parts of her life, her happiness and her duties, but not her sindhoor.

Shocked by Anupama's words, Bharti asks her if she, too, had been betrayed in marriage. Anupama opens up to Bharti and tells her that she too went through betrayal in her marriage. She shares that her husband had once cheated on her, and later tried to come back into her life. But Anupama chose not to take him back, leaving Bharti completely shocked by her strength and decision.
