Anupamaa: Pakhi arrives with her child, Ishani

In tonight's Anupamaa episode, Yashpal's mother expresses her fondness for the tea prepared by Anupama (Rupali Ganguly), predicting Yashpal's potential fame due to it. She affectionately renames Anupama as 'Anapurna' and hands her some money, addressing her as 'Anu'. Yashpal instructs Anupama to clean the restaurant and secure the doors. Grateful for surviving in America, Anupama attributes her resilience to her cooking and dancing skills. Anupama dreams about Aadhya, leaving her puzzled about the nature of their bond.

Ansh inquires with Baa about Bapuji's whereabouts and learns about his attendance at a wedding. Ansh questions Baa's absence from the event, and she explains her preoccupation. Baa and Vanraj (Sudhanshu Pandey) insist on taking Ansh to another city, dismissing concerns about his school. Pakhi arrives with her baby Ishani, and Dimple bonds with the child. The revelation of Pakhi and Adhik's divorce surfaces, with Pakhi demanding coffee from Dimple due to her workload. Leela considers disclosing Anupama's move to America to Pakhi, but Vanraj advises against it.

Aadhya encounters Anupama's picture on Shruti's laptop, triggering memories of the past. Shruti discusses Joshi and almost reveals Anupama's picture to Anuj. Aadhya intervenes, deleting the pictures. On the other hand, in a conversation with Baa, Pakhi disrespects Dimple, drawing Kavya's support. Kavya backs Dimple, saying she is living like a second Anupama, leading Leela to caution against mentioning Anupama to avoid Vanraj's anger. Dimple arrives there with coffee, and Pakhi demands a black coffee. Baa and Kavya are both disturbed by Pakhi's behaviour.

Anupama shares her encounter with Yashpal's mother with Vikram, noting Yashpal's subdued demeanour due to past heartbreak. Anupama reminisces about Anuj, and Shruti enters the scene, confirming that Joshi ki Rasoi is Anupama's channel. Shruti and Anupama form a connection, with Shruti subtly discussing Anuj. Shruti receives a call from Anuj, prompting Anupama to inquire about Shruti's marriage plans. Shruti reveals her impending marriage, and the episode concludes.

Precap: Anupama takes charge in the restaurant kitchen, while Shruti invites her to cook for Aadhya's friend's party, causing restlessness in Anuj.
