Anupamaa: Anupama turns down Anuj’s policy money, says she wants nothing for herself

In tonight’s episode, Anupama tells Hasmuk to transfer the money to Rahi, clarifying that the funds rightfully belong to her. She makes it clear that she has no intention of keeping anything for herself, adding that the policy was taken by Anuj using his own money, and she’s doing just fine without it.

Hasmuk agrees with her decision, expressing that he feels the same way. Anupama shares how much she misses him, and Hasmuk gently reminds her to look after herself.

Meanwhile, Pakhi is taken aback upon discovering that Anupama is alive and that Hasmuk has been in contact with her. She wonders why her mother is staying hidden and questions the game of hide-and-seek Anupama seems to be playing.

Elsewhere, Anupama reflects on her situation. She thinks about how a mother never gives up on her child, even if she has to search the ends of the earth to find them. In contrast, Toshu is already preparing her death certificate just because she hasn’t been around. Hurt but resolute, Anupama decides to let go of the Shah family and focus solely on her responsibilities, particularly towards Manohar.

She quietly slips into Manohar's house and is reminded of how Tarun had wrecked the place. Noticing that the plants are withering, she scolds Manohar for neglecting them, telling him that plants bloom when spoken to with love. Manohar, shocked to see her, asks why she’s come. Ignoring his resistance, Anupama reprimands him for his declining health and the untidy state of the home. She insists that things must change and urges him to talk to his plants. Her words bring a faint smile to his face.

Later, some girls approach Anupama and ask whether Manohar will no longer be their dance mentor. Sensing an opportunity, Anupama comes up with a plan.

On the other side, Gautam confronts Prarthana and asks whether she has returned because she realized her fault. Prarthana explains that Parag had called her. Parag then insists on speaking to Prarthana alone, but Gautam protests, suggesting everything be said in public. Parag, however, insists on a private conversation.

Back at the dance space, Anupama hides and watches with joy as Manohar watches the girls dance. He can’t resist pointing out their mistakes. The girls challenge him to show them the right steps if he knows better. Encouraged by this, Manohar steps forward and begins teaching them again. Seeing him reconnect with his passion fills Anupama’s heart with happiness. She silently vows to help him reclaim his love for dance.

Soon after, Sumit and Bharti arrive and meet Anupama and Preet. Anupama advises Sumit to treat Bharti with care and ensure her happiness. Sumit then asks for permission to take Bharti out for dinner, and Bharti agrees. Anupama reminds him to drive cautiously, especially since it’s raining. Jaspreet and Anupama are delighted to see Bharti excited. Meanwhile, Preet shares her desire to marry someone wealthy. Anupama gently counsels her, offering a reality check about values and expectations.

Just when things seem to be going well, Preet and Anupama receive devastating news, Bharti has met with an accident. At the hospital, the receptionist informs them that immediate surgery is required and that the cost is 50 lakh rupees. Distressed, Anupama pleads for time to arrange the funds. The doctor then calls her in for an update, and Anupama is heartbroken upon seeing Bharti lying unconscious in the ICU. Preet tries to console her, but Anupama is overwhelmed with guilt, blaming herself for what happened. Preet reassures her that she did nothing wrong. To make matters worse, they learn that Sumit left Bharti at the hospital and vanished without a trace.
