She believes Pari would be happy knowing Anupama is standing by Rahi and admits that she herself will miss Anupama deeply.
Hasmuk notices Anupama’s disturbed state and asks what’s bothering her. Anupama confesses that she feels unusually restless as if something unpleasant is about to happen. Hasmuk tries to calm her asking her not to think negatively but Anupama explains that this feeling is different it’s an intuition she can’t ignore. She admits that while she never felt uncomfortable staying at Anuj’s house living under the Kothari roof makes her anxious. Kinjal steps in to reassure Anupama reminding her that the family is always with her.
Gautam and Mahi’s Hidden Agenda
Away from the Shah family Gautam and Mahi grow tense over Anupama staying in the Kothari house. Mahi mentions that Prem and Prerna have gone to Delhi together sparking an idea in Gautam’s mind. He decides to manipulate the situation to bring Prem and Prerna closer believing it will weaken Anupama’s position.
Gautam blames Anupama for interfering in his chawl project and for bringing Prerna into Prem and Rahi’s lives. He coldly declares that Anupama will pay for her actions and vows to throw her out of the house in the most humiliating way possible.
Vasundhara expresses regret over celebrating her birthday sensing that trouble is approaching. Despite this Anupama brings snacks for Vasundhara and Parag trying her best to be respectful. Vasundhara immediately taunts Anupama reminding her that she is a guest and should not work adding that their household has servants unlike Anupama’s.
Khyati intervenes clarifying that Anupama insisted on helping despite being told otherwise. Feeling guilty Anupama apologizes to Vasundhara for spoiling her birthday mood. Vasundhara responds coldly stating that what’s done cannot be undone.

The atmosphere grows heavier when Kriti and Kapil arrive at the Kothari house. Vasundhara introduces Kriti as her niece. Kriti immediately takes a dig at Anupama after learning that she will be staying in the house.

Kriti demands a large room for herself sarcastically commenting on how modern the world has become. Parag assures her without hesitation. Vasundhara reveals that Kriti is unhappy in her marriage hinting at unresolved issues.
Anupama politely asks Vasundhara and Parag if her presence is causing any inconvenience. Vasundhara complains about the overcrowding but dismisses it as manageable while Parag tries to ease Anupama’s worries.
Elsewhere Prem tells Rahi to take care of herself before leaving for Delhi. Rahi reassures him that Anupama is with her. Meanwhile Paritosh and Pakhi complain about Parag not asking them to stay back to support Rahi. Kinjal interrupts sharply calling them out for their selfishness.

In the kitchen Anupama accidentally bumps into Kapil who explains that he is preparing cardamom milk because Kriti likes it. His gentle concern surprises Anupama making her wonder why Vasundhara had portrayed Kriti’s husband and in-laws as cruel if Kapil is so caring.
Kriti’s Shocking Dual Personality
Later Anupama overhears Kriti scolding Kapil harshly inside the room. Before she can process what’s happening Kriti notices someone nearby and instantly changes her tone playing the victim and painting Kapil as the villain. Anupama is left confused unable to understand who is telling the truth.
