Anupamaa: Anupama breaks down, begs Anuj to come back as fear of loneliness grips her

In tonight's Anupamaa episode, Anupama gently consoles Pari, urging her not to carry the burden of guilt. She explains that it's natural for children to express their wishes to their parents and that parents, driven by love, often go to extreme lengths to fulfil those desires—even crossing certain boundaries in the process. She highlights that Kinjal made a mistake while trying to meet one such demand.

She reassures Pari, telling her to stop crying and reminding her that true talent can shine anywhere, regardless of the situation. Anupama reflects on how middle-class families often nurture the dream of sending their children abroad for education, even if it means taking hefty loans. She suggests that Kinjal may have taken a similar path. Reiterating that Kinjal is behind bars because of a poor decision—not Pari's fault—Anupama promises to make arrangements for Kinjal's bail. However, Pari, visibly worried, fears that Kinjal might face a fate similar to Raghav's and be imprisoned for life. Anupama tries to calm her and advises her to get some rest.

In another scene, Ansh confronts Anupama and surprises her by saying she should have agreed to Gautam's condition. Anupama is taken aback by his statement.

Meanwhile, Rahi confides in Prem, expressing her fear that Kinjal wouldn't have resorted to such a drastic step if Toshu had stood by her. Though anxious about the current situation, Prem promises Rahi that they will ensure Kinjal's release. Rahi, overwhelmed with shame over the Shahs' involvement, is reminded by Prem to also reflect on the issues within the Kothari household. She acknowledges his point, and together, they decide to financially support Toshu, with Rahi offering her personal savings.

On the other side, Toshu confronts Raghav, accusing him of poisoning Anupama's mind and holding him responsible for the chaos in their lives. He warns Raghav to stay away from Anupama or risk never seeing her again. Ansh urges Raghav to let go of the case, warning that taking on the Kotharis is a losing battle. Raghav is left stunned by this plea.

Later, Pari vents her frustration and reveals the humiliation she's been enduring to the Shah family. Pakhi lashes out at Anupama, accusing her of offering false comfort. Rahi and Prem back Pari, while Leela pins the blame squarely on Anupama for Kinjal's plight.

Elsewhere, Prarthana confronts Gautam, questioning why he's causing so much trouble for the Shahs and sending Kinjal to jail. Gautam, unbothered, mocks her concern and insinuates that she's worried because of Ansh's feelings. Prarthana is appalled, but Gautam coldly declares that he has no mercy left for the Shah family.

Back at home, Rahi accuses Anupama of failing Kinjal in her time of need. Anupama urges her to ask herself why the Kotharis are so intent on getting the case dropped. But Rahi calls her insensitive and hands over financial aid to Toshu, asking him to bring Kinjal home. She sternly warns Anupama that if she isn't careful, she might lose her family once again.

Anupama is left devastated by Rahi's words. Opening up to Anuj, she expresses her anguish and wonders how many more times she'll be separated from her children. Exhausted and emotionally drained, she asks what he would have done in Raghav's place. Anupama insists she's not wrong in standing by the truth. She explains that after encouraging Raghav to take legal action, she can't now ask him to retreat. Although she acknowledges Kinjal's mistake, she is heartbroken that her own children now see her as the villain. The fear of being left all alone looms over her, and she pleads with Anuj to return. She also informs him that she did try to persuade Raghav to withdraw the case, but he refused.

Just then, Ansh arrives with unexpected news that Raghav has agreed to drop the case. Anupama is stunned.
