The latest episode of Deepa Shahi and Rajan Shahi’s Anupamaa is filled with secrets, blackmail and emotional moments as Ansh and Prerna’s wedding celebrations continue while Anupama remains unaware of a brewing conspiracy.
The episode begins with Paritosh taking Prem aside for a private conversation, immediately catching Anupama’s attention. Sensing that something is amiss, she grows suspicious. Paritosh questions Prem about his preparations for the upcoming cooking competition. While Prem says he is focused on the wedding and does not want to miss the celebrations, Paritosh makes it clear that he already knows the secret behind Prem’s confidence.
A confused Prem initially dismisses Paritosh’s claims, but the latter finally reveals that he knows Prem has stolen Anupama’s recipe diary. Taking advantage of the situation, Paritosh demands ten per cent of the prize money in exchange for his silence. Realising he is being blackmailed, Prem asks if Paritosh simply wants money to keep quiet. Paritosh smiles, making it clear that Prem has understood his intentions perfectly.
Just then, Rahi arrives and questions Prem about his conversation with Paritosh. Trying to avoid suspicion, Prem casually tells her they were discussing the wedding. However, he is visibly disturbed by the encounter.
Meanwhile, Paritosh informs Gautam that he has done exactly what was asked of him. Delighted, Gautam eagerly waits for the drama to unfold. On the other hand, Prem confides in Shruti that Paritosh has discovered the truth about the diary. Worried about the consequences, he decides that the safest option is to return it to Anupama. Shruti strongly opposes the idea, insisting that they cannot allow Anupama to regain access to her best recipes before the competition. She argues that no one would believe Paritosh anyway. Although Prem says he can create new recipes on his own, Shruti remains determined to keep the diary hidden.
Elsewhere, preparations for Ansh and Prerna’s wedding continue. The priest asks who will perform Prerna’s kanyadaan, and she requests Digvijay to take on the responsibility. Overcome with emotion, Digvijay admits that after Saavi’s death, he never imagined destiny would bless him with such a meaningful moment. Ansh assures him that he will always take equal care of both Prerna and Pranshi. Anupama explains the significance of the sacred ritual and happily invites Digvijay to perform the kanyadaan, filling him with gratitude.
The tension rises again when Shruti secretly warns Paritosh not to reveal anything before the cooking competition. She threatens to make him disappear from Ahmedabad if he dares to expose Prem. However, Gautam manipulates Paritosh into revealing the truth, encouraging him to expose both Prem and Shruti publicly. Influenced by Gautam’s words, Paritosh decides to create a scene.
Back at the wedding, Leela asks Anupama to prepare the special prasad. Kinjal suggests making a unique offering, prompting Anupama to look for her treasured recipe diary. To her horror, she discovers that it has gone missing. While Kinjal tries to calm her down, Anupama becomes increasingly anxious about where the diary could have disappeared.
Despite the tension, the wedding rituals continue as Ansh and Prerna complete the sacred pheras. Hasmuk and Leela fondly discuss the importance of the wedding vows, while Anil and Meeta reminisce about their own marriage. Watching the ceremony, Prem recalls his wedding with Rahi and silently regrets hurting her. Raja and Pari also reflect on their relationship, with Pari expressing her excitement about embracing parenthood. Elsewhere, Shruti is consumed by regret as she thinks about how her life with Anuj could have been different had Anupama not entered the picture.
Later, Khyati requests Anupama to bring little Pranshi to the Kothari house, confessing that she fears Gautam. Anupama reassures her that Pranshi will never be left in Gautam’s custody for long. Once the wedding concludes, Anupama asks the newlyweds to seek blessings from the elders.
Even as the celebrations continue, Anupama cannot stop worrying about her missing diary. The family then prepares for the traditional Chedu Pakdo ceremony, where Vasundhara explains that Ansh will collect gifts from the guests before distributing them. Anupama decides to perform the ritual with Prerna. When Ansh jokingly complains that no one has given him gifts, Rahi, Ishani and Pari tease him for his lifelong habit of demanding presents. Smiling, Ansh says that Prerna herself is the greatest gift he has received. As the family enjoys the light-hearted banter, Vasundhara shifts the conversation towards Prerna’s farewell ceremony.
Precap: Paritosh questions Anupama about her missing recipe diary. As Kinjal confirms that the diary has disappeared, Paritosh publicly exposes Prem. He asks Prem to swear on Rahi and reveal the truth. Left with no choice, Prem admits before everyone that he stole Anupama’s recipe diary.
