Anupamaa: Anupama's life shatters on seeing Samar's killer walk free

In tonight's episode of Anupamaa, tensions rise as Leela grows anxious about Khyati and Prarthana's situation. She sarcastically remarks that Khyati will keep pestering Prarthana in Aryan's name. However, Kinjal jumps in to defend Khyati, reminding everyone that she is Prarthana's mother and a genuinely kind woman. Leela can't resist taunting, saying that for Kinjal and Anupama, everyone always appears to be good.

Meanwhile, Anupama and her team receive a warm welcome from Prakash's family. One of the women there recognises them, excitedly mentioning that she's seen the dance queens on television. But amidst the cheerful environment, Anupama notices Prakash eyeing Rahi and Mahi with ill intentions, which immediately raises her concern.

Rahi and Anupama Confront Prakash

As Devika compliments the beauty and cleanliness of the village, Tatiya proudly credits Prakash for maintaining such harmony. Pretending to be modest, Prakash replies that he is merely following God's path and doing what's right.

Rahi, however, brings up a disturbing topic — she has heard about some missing girls from the village. Her words leave both Prakash and Tatiya visibly uneasy. Preet reminds everyone that Prakash himself had earlier claimed the village was completely safe for girls. Trying to cover up, Prakash insists the girls must have eloped with boys from nearby villages. Anupama immediately counters, suggesting that maybe they didn't leave willingly, but out of fear of someone.

Later, Anupama questions Prakash about a young boy's recent death, asking why he didn't intervene to save him. Prakash brushes it off, saying that he cannot go against God's will.

Ishani and Raja’s Emotional Moment Creates Awkwardness

Elsewhere, at the Shah house, Hasmuk asks Raja to repair his hearing aid. Just then, Ishani arrives demanding money from Raja. He gives it to her without hesitation, and she expresses regret for not marrying him earlier. In a moment of emotion, Ishani hugs Raja, praising his kindness — only to be caught by Prem, who looks uncomfortable witnessing the scene.

Prakash’s Wife Warns Anupama of Impending Danger

Back in the village, Anupama accidentally spills juice on herself and looks for a place to clean up. Prakash's wife stops her, warning that she should leave before her husband does something dangerous. She nervously reveals that Prakash is involved in shady dealings and urges Anupama to go back for her own safety.

Anupama Spots Sonu Rathod

She leaves the place after pleading with Anupama to go back from the village. A confused and uneasy Anupama then notices a man nearby with a mark on his neck — the same one Girija had mentioned earlier. As she looks closer, she is left shaken to the core on realising that the man is none other than Sonu Rathod, the very person responsible for Samar’s death, seen talking casually with Prakash.

The shocking sight leaves Anupama frozen in disbelief as painful memories of Samar’s tragic end come rushing back. She remembers his words — that his soul cannot find peace because his killer still roams free. Overwhelmed with emotion yet filled with determination, Anupama decides to confront Sonu.

She runs after him, but before she can reach, Sonu quickly drives away in his car, leaving her helpless. In tears, Anupama calls out to Samar, realising that he must have guided her to this village for this reason. As she breaks down, Prakash arrives at the spot.

New Business Plans Spark Family Tensions

Meanwhile, Parag informs Prem about a new partnership offer from a friend, which could help him set up his dream restaurant. Prem becomes excited about the opportunity, but Anil advises him not to get too caught up in business matters. Vasundhara takes a jab at Ansh, implying that an outsider will end up running their business. Parag steps in, firmly supporting Ansh.

At that moment, Ishani arrives and asks Raja to accompany her somewhere. Ansh questions her motive, wondering why she didn't ask him or Prem. Ishani explains that she didn't feel they trusted her enough, so she turned to Raja for help.

Anupama Confronts Prakash

Back in the village, Prakash confronts Anupama, asking why she seems disturbed. She turns the tables, questioning how he knows Sonu, the man responsible for Samar's death. Prakash pretends ignorance, claiming she's mistaken, but Anupama's words make it clear she's aware of his true nature. Realising this, Prakash begins to suspect that Girija must have exposed his secrets. Tatiya is left stunned after overhearing their conversation.

At the Shah house, Leela calls Hasmuk, concerned about his health, but he assures her that he's perfectly fine. Meanwhile, Anupama urges everyone to leave the village immediately for their safety. However, she firmly tells Prakash's wife that she will not go until she finds Sonu and exposes the truth.

Precap for the Next Episode

In the precap, Anupama learns that Girija's life is in grave danger and vows to protect her at any cost. Devika asks how they plan to confront Prakash, to which Anupama declares that this Dussehra, two Ravanas will burn.
