Anupamaa: Malti Devi does not want Anuj to testify against Sonu, decides to speak to him but later refrains

The episode of Star Plus' show Anupamaa tonight begins with Devika paying a visit to the Shah household to meet Anupama, her eyes welled up with tears as she embraces Anupama. Amidst the emotional reunion, Anupama reassures Devika that she is doing well. Devika expresses regret for arriving late, and Anupama mentions Samar, drawing the attention of the family members present.

In another part of the house, Malti Devi approaches Anuj with information about a fancy dress competition at Choti's school. Anuj readily agrees to arrange the costume, while Malti Devi shares her plans for Choti's attire. She hints at another matter and takes a seat next to him, which sparks Barkha and Adhik's interest, thinking it's business-related.

Malti Devi surprises Anuj by urging him not to testify against Sonu, fearing for his safety. Anuj is taken aback by her request, asserting that he won't jeopardize justice for Sonu's sake. Malti emphasizes her desire to protect her only son and urges Anuj not to put his life at risk. Anuj firmly stands his ground, determined to seek justice for Anupama's son. He warns that if Malti Devi makes such a request again, he'll disown her as his mother. The exchange turns out to be Malti Devi's imagination, leaving Anuj puzzled.

Anuj inquires if everything is alright, and Malti Devi diverts the conversation by suggesting she takes Choti to an art gallery. Barkha and Adhik speculate that the business topic will come up next.

Devika, who has recently returned from Japan, opens up to Anupama about the case. Anupama expresses her concerns, noting that it appears challenging given Toshu and Adhik's refusal to testify and the viral video of Mr. Shah assaulting Suresh. Their only witness is Anuj, and Anupama worries for his safety.

Devika encourages them to investigate further and approach all witnesses who were present at the club. She emphasizes the importance of uncovering the truth and mentions the risks involved in confronting someone as dangerous as Suresh.

Anuj and Anupama discuss the case, and Anuj is about to contact their lawyer when Devika arrives, surprising Anuj. They share a heartfelt hug, and Devika expresses her support for Anupama, highlighting the importance of having a friend like her during difficult times.

Devika's curiosity is piqued when she learns about Malti Devi, who hands Anuj a file and introduces herself as his mother. Anupama humorously remarks that she has now acquired a new mother-in-law, and Barkha advises Malti Devi to act as Anupama's mother to secure a place in their lives.

Meanwhile, Baa and Babu ji take care of Pari, expressing their disappointment with Toshu and Kinjal's actions. Vanraj, who left the family, is suddenly confronted by an attacker.

Romil offers a strategy to investigate further using social media and information gathered from Sonu's videos, urging the family to remain discreet about their source. An emotional exchange occurs between Anupama and Pakhi, who points out the challenges in their lives. Anupama emphasizes the significance of fighting for justice and confronting wrongdoers.

PRECAP: 

Anuj reassures Anupama of his unwavering support, and they share a tender moment, holding hands. However, Suresh appears and makes a callous remark about their affection.
