Anupamaa: Anupama takes responsibility and faces arrest to protect Rahi

In tonight's Anupamaa episode, Prem wakes Rahi and expresses relief at seeing her safe. Rahi notices her locket and asks who saved it. Prem avoids the specifics, emphasising that her safety matters most. However, Rahi spots a cut on Prem's hand and grows concerned about him.

Meanwhile, Toshu returns home intoxicated. When a customer calls about an order, he reassures them of timely delivery. He reflects on how Rahi must complete her tasks on time, fearing Anupama's reaction otherwise.

Rahi later assists Prem and shares a coffee with him. Curious, she questions Prem about whether he fought with someone. Prem humorously replies that he's a real-life hero, not a fictional one. When asked why she didn't call for help, Rahi explains that the man who snatched her locket had taken the last memory of Anuj, which she chased to retrieve. This sparks a lighthearted conversation between them, and Rahi laughs at Prem's playful remarks. Prem encourages her to keep smiling but notes that she pretends to be tough while being sweet and innocent at heart.

Prem then confesses his love for Rahi, but she falls asleep during the conversation. In her sleep, Rahi humorously confesses her love for Toffee and Kaveri instead. Later, Rahi becomes anxious about an order delivery. Prem assures her to stay calm. When a customer calls for an update, Rahi confidently informs them the order is on its way.

Upon reaching home, Mahi confronts Rahi about her overnight absence with Prem. Rahi shifts the focus by asking if Toshu has completed loading the items. Ansh informs her that the order was dispatched on time.

Elsewhere, Ansh questions Anupama about her whereabouts during his birthday. Anupama apologises for missing the celebration and explains she had gone to Dwarka to assist Bubbly. This raises concerns for Rahi about Bubbly's situation. When Anupama inquires about Leela, Rahi decides to inform her about Leela's condition.

The drama intensifies when Jigna blames Rahi for her husband's deteriorating health. Anupama learns that Jigna was unable to return home on time due to Rahi's instructions. Jigna curses Rahi, leaving Anupama shocked. Jhanki steps in, revealing that she had advised Rahi to deny Jigna leave, and accuses Rahi of being a burden tolerated only because of Anupama.

Soon after, the customer complains about receiving spoiled food and demands police intervention. When the police arrive, Toshu shifts the blame onto Rahi. In a surprising turn, Anupama takes responsibility, asking the inspector to arrest her instead, as the company owner. Rahi is left stunned by this act of selflessness.
