Anupamaa: ‘Mere Anuj, tere papa banne se pehle…’ Anupama gives it back to Rahi in her old avatar

Star Plus' Anupamaa is heading towards an intense and emotional twist as the much-anticipated Taal Se Taal dance competition nears its finale. In the recent episodes, Rahi defeats Anupama in the semi-final, leading to Anupama and her team's elimination. Though many expected Anupama to back out, she gathers the courage to perform. However, she freezes midway during the act, and the performance remains incomplete. Disheartened by the loss, her team members, especially Preet, feel betrayed and cut ties with her. In a shocking turn, Preet even throws Anupama out of the house, leaving her broken and helpless on the street. Thankfully, Manohar comes to her aid and takes her home. Just when things seem bleak, Anupama receives a wildcard entry into the competition finals, bringing a glimmer of hope back into her life. As fans await Rahi's reaction to this news, the channel has now released a promo showing a dramatic face-off between Anupama and Rahi at a temple, hinting at more emotional confrontations ahead.

The promo begins with Anupama arriving at a temple along with Manohar and her team to offer prayers before the finale. They are unaware that Rahi and the Kothari family are also present at the same place. While Anupama carries offerings for the deity and walks toward the idol, Rahi, who is on her way out, accidentally bumps into her. The collision causes Rahi to fall, and Anupama immediately apologises.

In a surprising moment, a chunari (scarf) that Anupama was carrying falls and lands on Rahi's head. Both of them are shocked by the incident. The priest witnessing this tells them to consider the chunari as a blessing from Lord Krishna. However, Rahi refuses to accept it and removes it from her head, showing clear discomfort. Just as she is about to throw it away, Anupama stops her and asks her to maintain peace in the sacred place.

Rahi, still furious, expresses her anger and distances herself from Anupama, stating that she shares no bond with her and considers only Anuj Kapadia as her father. She then warns Anupama to be ready to lose in the competition.

Anupama returns to her strong and assertive self. For the first time in a long while, Anupama doesn't stay quiet and returns to her strong and assertive self. She firmly confronts Rahi, pointing fingers and giving a powerful reply. She reminds Rahi that Anuj was her husband before he ever became Rahi’s father. She adds that even if Rahi's entire family joins her team, it wouldn't affect them. With that, Anupama walks away with full confidence, her team following behind her, setting the stage for an intense showdown in the finale.
