Anupamaa: Anupama risks it all for Samar’s justice, while Khyati senses Aryan in Prarthana’s child

Rahi Questions Anupama’s Instinct

In tonight's episode of Anupamaa, the emotional and mysterious track around Samar's death takes a gripping turn. Anupama finally admits that she now understands the reason Samar brought her to Murvi.

She confides that she has been sensing Samar's presence constantly, as if he is guiding her toward the truth. Rahi, however, questions Anupama's belief, asking how she can be certain that the Sonu living with Prakash is the same man responsible for Samar's murder. Anupama remains firm, saying her heart recognises the truth — she can never forget Sonu or his family, no matter what.

Anupama Suspects a Link Between Prakash and Sonu

Anupama begins to feel that Prakash and Sonu are somehow connected. Wanting clarity, she asks Devika to verify whether Sonu is still in jail. Devika recalls that Anuj had told her Sonu was sentenced to life imprisonment, but she agrees to cross-check. Anupama, still uneasy, tells Devika that Prakash's actions have been raising doubts in her mind.

Prakash Invites Anupama for Navratri Mahaprasad

Soon after, Prakash invites Anupama for the Navratri mahaprasad at his home. Though hesitant, Anupama agrees to attend after he insists repeatedly. Rahi expresses concern about visiting him, but Devika says the only way to know more about Prakash is to observe him closely.

Ishani Returns

Anupama decides to take that risk, saying she is ready to do anything for Samar's justice. Sarita calls them fortunate to be invited, unaware of what lies ahead. Before leaving, Anupama notices a girl hiding nearby who quickly runs away on seeing her.

Elsewhere, Khyati eagerly awaits Aryan's return, feeling his presence around her. Meanwhile, Ishani surprises everyone by returning home unexpectedly. She claims she didn't enjoy her course, which is why she left college midway.

Ansh reprimands her for wasting the fees, but Ishani stands by her decision. Vasundhara, however, suspects Ishani is lying and fears she may have relapsed into old habits.

Prakash’s True Nature Comes to Light

At Prakash's side, his real face begins to show. He scolds his men for misbehaving with Rahi and Mahi, angry that their behaviour could have exposed him.

When questioned by Tatiya about inviting Anupama despite her sharpness, Prakash says he wanted to appear respectable. Later, he orders that Sonu stay hidden until the right time.

Khyati Feels Aryan’s Presence in Prarthana’s Unborn Child

Anupama prays for Samar's guidance, believing she is close to uncovering the truth. Meanwhile, Prarthana and Khyati share a heartfelt moment as they talk about the baby. Prarthana mentions that her unborn child has started kicking, reminding Khyati of the days when Aryan used to kick in her womb late at night.

Overwhelmed with memories, Khyati places her ear on Prarthana’s stomach to listen to the baby’s heartbeat. The sound takes her back in time, and she begins to feel that the heartbeat resembles Aryan’s. Her emotions take over as she becomes convinced that the child carries Aryan’s essence.

Anupama, who happens to overhear their conversation from outside, is taken aback. Seeing Khyati break down, she rushes in to comfort both women. Khyati, still emotional, tells Anupama and Prarthana that Aryan had appeared before her earlier in the day and said he would return. She now believes his words were true and that Aryan is coming back through Prarthana’s child.

Expressing her gratitude, Khyati thanks Prarthana for giving her Aryan once again and calls it the biggest blessing of this Navratri. She then lovingly asks Prarthana to come to the Kothari house with her baby, assuring her that she will take care of both mother and child and shower them with affection.

Anupama and Prarthana stand silent and stunned, unable to comprehend the depth of Khyati’s emotions and the turn of events unfolding before them.

Precap for the Next Episode

In the precap, Anupama and the dance group arrive at Prakash's home for the Navratri celebrations. Rahi notices that some girls are missing, but Prakash brushes it off, claiming they have simply run away. Anupama, however, senses something sinister and says perhaps the girls fled out of fear of someone powerful.
