Anupamaa: Prem subtly reveals the reason behind his hatred for the Kotharis

In tonight's Anupamaa episode, Rahi approaches Anupama with a thought-provoking question, asking what truly belongs to them that no one can take away. Encouraging her, Rahi reminds Anupama that they can secure new orders and advises her not to worry. However, Anupama expresses her exhaustion from constantly starting over. She admits that if anything were to happen to her business, Anu Ki Rasoi, it would shatter her completely. Seeing her distress, Rahi reassures Anupama and pledges her unwavering support.

Rahi advises Anupama to stop dwelling on the Kotharis. Despite the circumstances, Anupama resolves to pray for Khyati to reunite with her son and also for Prathana's well-being. Meanwhile, Rahi begins searching for Prem.

Elsewhere, Moti Baa confronts Prem after he announces his intention to marry Rahi. Prem firmly warns Parag not to harm Anupama or Rahi, threatening to stand against him if he does. He also points out that Parag is incapable of handling failure. Before leaving, Prem makes it clear that if Parag tries to cause harm, he will never return. Despite Anil and Baa urging Parag to stop Prem, he remains silent. Moti Baa falls to the ground, and Prem quickly rushes to assist her. She pleads with him to stay back.

Khyati pleads with Prem to stay, but he responds sharply, stating that he left the house and family because of her actions. Parag steps in to defend Khyati, declaring that he will not tolerate any disrespect towards his mother. In response, Prem mockingly questions if she truly deserves to be called a mother, leaving everyone speechless.

Moti Baa insists that Parag truly cares for Prem, but the latter stands firm in his decision. Before departing, Prem advises Prathana to take a stand for herself. Frustrated, Parag warns Prem to leave before things escalate. Prem agrees, declaring he has no intention of staying. As he leaves, Moti Baa questions Parag's inability to stop him, to which Parag responds that while he can compromise for love, he refuses to yield to stubbornness.

Prem meets Rahi, who inquires about his absence. Prem admits he is upset and hungry. He expresses his frustration over the Kotharis' behaviour towards Rahi and Anupama, deciding it's time to reveal the truth. Seeking Rahi's understanding, Prem receives her assurance that she will stand by him. Prem reflects on the Shah family, noting that despite their frequent conflicts, they remain united, a quality he admires. Determined to lighten Prem's mood, Rahi devises a plan to cheer him up.

Later, Prem reveals to Rahi that Parag wronged Gayatri, leaving her stunned. Meanwhile, Ansh becomes anxious about the impact of Rahi and Anupama's actions on his dealings with the Kotharis. Pari reassures him, stating that their connection to Anupama will remain hidden, as Ansh is identified as a Shah. Relieved, Ansh feels more confident.

In another scene, Gautam informs Parag about Anupama's background. Moti Baa comments on Anupama's peculiar family, while Gautam speculates that Anupama aims to surpass the Kotharis by leveraging Prem. Concerned, Moti Baa urges Parag to make a decision. Parag calls Anupama for a meeting, leaving her shocked.
