Anupamaa: Prem and Rahi’s relationship hits a rough patch; Vasundhara invites Shahs for Mahi-Gautam’s marriage

In tonight's episode of Anupamaa, the story takes an emotional turn as Anupama takes a firm stand for Ishani's dignity. Determined to ensure justice, she decides to file a complaint against Varun in the cyber cell for his wrongdoing. Varun pleads with her to reconsider, fearing that his professional life will be ruined. Anupama questions his sudden realisation of guilt and reminds him of the consequences of his actions, pointing out that Ishani was driven to attempt suicide because of his betrayal. Feeling remorseful, Varun asks Anupama to forgive him and let him go.

Varun’s Confession and Anupama’s Warning

Anupama then demands that Varun delete every single photograph of Ishani and make sure that they are not in anyone else's possession. Varun promises that he has never shared those pictures with anyone and agrees to remove them immediately.

Anupama also instructs Ishani to delete the photos from her end. To safeguard Ishani's future, she tells Paritosh to record Varun's confession so that it can serve as proof if he ever repeats his mistake. She warns Varun that if he lies again, this video will expose him. Varun apologises on camera for his behaviour, while Anupama asks Paritosh to record everyone present for complete transparency.

Anupama’s Emotional Breakdown Over Family Issues

Overwhelmed with emotion, Ishani hugs Anupama tightly in gratitude. Later, Anupama's thoughts drift to Mahi, and she begins to worry about the growing problems in her family. Hasmukh advises her to let go when things get too heavy, but Anupama says she cannot walk away when her family is breaking apart. She mentions how Ansh, Pari, Mahi, and Ishani are constantly at odds with each other, and how Ansh, once the family's pillar of support, now refuses to even return home. Feeling exhausted, she admits she's tired of holding the family together all by herself. Hasmukh comforts her as she struggles with her emotions.

Gautam Impresses Investors, Leaving Ansh Shocked

Meanwhile, in the business world, Parag questions Gautam about how the investors, who had earlier refused their deal, suddenly agreed to collaborate. Mahi explains that when Ansh was handling the matter, the investors were uninterested, but Gautam managed to win their trust. Parag praises Gautam's capability, leaving Ansh shocked and hurt.

On the other hand, Vasundhara starts preparing for Mahi's wedding. She assigns Ansh to help Anil with arrangements and tells him that Parag, Gautam, and Prem will manage business affairs. Ansh is left stunned. Mahi asks whether all the traditional rituals will be followed, and Vasundhara assures her that every custom will be observed.

Vasundhara’s Unexpected Visit to the Shah House

Back at the Shah house, Pari asks Anupama to give her some work to keep her mind off the Kotharis. Although Anupama tries to help, Pari grows anxious, wondering whether the Kotharis will ever respond. Leela distracts Pari by asking her to find Hasmukh's slippers, but privately worries if Pari will end up staying with them permanently. Just then, Vasundhara arrives at the Shah home with Mahi and Gautam, leaving everyone, especially Anupama, startled.

Elsewhere, Rahi encourages Raja not to give up on Pari and to fight for his love. Motivated by her words, Raja decides to do so. Parag, meanwhile, advises Ansh to learn business strategies from Gautam, drawing comparisons between the two. Even Anil agrees that there's no harm in learning. Prarthana tries to calm Ansh by explaining that Parag's remarks were strictly professional, but Ansh loses his patience. Annoyed by constant comparisons, he angrily asks Prarthana if she regrets marrying him.

Prem and Rahi’s Heated Argument

Rahi seeks Meeta's help to reconcile Raja and Pari, but Meeta firmly refuses to allow Pari back into Raja's life, leaving Rahi disappointed. Later, Vasundhara invites Anupama and the Shahs to Mahi and Gautam's wedding. Anupama gracefully accepts the invitation. Pari apologises to Vasundhara, with Ishani supporting her, but Vasundhara coldly ignores both. Mahi bluntly tells them not to bring negativity when her life is finally filled with happiness, and Vasundhara agrees with her. Anupama then asks the Kotharis to leave, assuring them that she will attend the ceremony.

Meanwhile, Prem is anxious about his failed investment and the impact it could have on the Kotharis' image. Rahi urges him to focus on the ongoing family tensions involving Mahi, Gautam, and Pari, but Prem loses his temper and yells at her. Stunned, Rahi questions his change in behaviour.

Later, she comforts Pari, assuring her that Raja truly loves her and will stand up for their relationship. She tells her to remain patient and have faith. Rahi then meets Anupama, who consoles her in return. During their conversation, Anupama suddenly receives a call from the AK Group of Companies and is visibly shocked by what she hears.

Anupama Receives a Shocking Phone Call

At the same time, Mahi excitedly prepares for her upcoming wedding and searches for the perfect outfit. She asks Khyati and Prarthana to help her choose a dress, but Khyati refuses. Mahi then taunts Prarthana, saying her child will be loved by two mothers. Offended, Prarthana stands up for her baby and warns Mahi and Gautam to stay away. Ansh intervenes, telling Gautam to keep his distance from his child and questioning Prarthana for tolerating his behaviour. Prarthana retorts that Ansh's desire to maintain ties with the Kotharis is only causing her pain.

Meanwhile, Anupama continues to dwell on the mysterious phone call, clearly disturbed by it. Leela remarks that Vasundhara's visit was never about inviting them to the wedding but rather an attempt to insult them. Anupama, tense and thoughtful, remains silent, wondering what lies ahead for her family.
