Anupamaa: Rajni wants to use Anu to destroy her chawl, Gautam spots Diwaker-Raahi together & smirks

Parag & Anu's unpleasant confrontation:

In the episode of Anupamaa tonight, Parag and Anupama run into each other and exchange greetings. Rajini questions Anupama about why she has come there. In response, Anupama turns the question back on Parag, asking what he is doing at Rajini’s house. Parag counters sharply, saying she should explain her own presence first. He mockingly comments that after trying her hand at fashion shows, cooking, and dance, Anupama might now be planning to enter politics. Anupama confidently replies that if it is God’s decision for her to step into politics, no one can stop it. She adds that opposing God’s will is impossible and mentions that even Rajini has encouraged her to consider a political role.

Rajni's ulterior motives:

Rajini then directly asks Anupama the reason for her visit. Anupama quietly offers prasad to Rajini and leaves. As she walks away, she wonders if Prem and Rahi are aware of Parag and Rajini’s connection, concluding that they likely are not.

Soon after, Anupama notices Varun nearby. Varun recalls Rajini advising him to follow Anupama’s example by helping others. He cleverly pretends to be kind and supportive in front of Anupama, trying to win her admiration. Anupama is impressed by his behavior and believes he is a decent person, thinking he could be a good choice to discuss Bharti’s marriage proposal.

Later, Parag cautions Rajini to stay alert around Anupama, accusing her of ruining everything she becomes involved with. Rajini calmly responds that she knows Anupama very well. Parag insists that trusting Anupama would be a serious mistake. At this point, Rajini reveals her real intention—to use Anupama as a tool to destroy the chawl. Parag is shocked when he learns that Anupama is staying in the same chawl. Rajini mocks him, asking if this news has made him lose his nerve.

Gautam spots Raahi with Diwaker:

Elsewhere, Rahi struggles to find an auto to return home. Prem informs her that he won’t be able to pick her up. Seeing the opportunity, Diwaker offers her a ride. He feels thrilled, thinking it is the first time Rahi has sat in his car. Rahi simply asks him to drive. Gautam notices the two together and smirks, already imagining how this might affect Prem and Rahi.

Meanwhile, Anupama comes across a young girl in tears. The girl explains that her best friend’s house has already been demolished and fears that their chawl could be next. Anupama comforts her and gives her reassurance. Later, Anupama joins Bharti, Varun, and the children in preparing burgers.

Varun grows frustrated and complains to Rajini that Anupama will never allow her plans to succeed. Rajini confidently assures him that she will ensure the destruction of Purvi Chaya Chawl. Around the same time, Pari and Ishani celebrate with the chawl residents by hosting a vada pav party after securing new jobs. They express gratitude, saying the chawl has brought them good fortune. Anupama adds that the chawl has given her countless blessings. Preet calls the chawl the heart of their lives and takes a dig at Sarita for wanting to tear it down. Soon after, Rajini arrives to meet Anupama.

Prem disturbed because of Parag:

In another scene, Prem appears disturbed. Rahi asks him what is troubling him. Prem reveals that Parag has invested heavily in a real estate project and may suffer losses. He suspects Gautam’s involvement in the matter. Rahi urges him to stay calm, and Prem tells her that he has already assigned someone to investigate the project.

Later, Anupama celebrates Pari and Ishani’s achievements. She then brings up Bharti and Varun while speaking to Rajini and asks her the reason behind her sudden visit. Rajini replies that she wants to address something important in front of all the chawl residents.
