In today’s episode, Rajini addresses the gathered residents of the chawl, acknowledging the curiosity surrounding her decision to halt the party and assemble everyone. She explains that this meeting is crucial for discussing the legal procedures necessary to save their beloved chawl from redevelopment. Rajini expresses her understanding of the deep emotional ties that the residents have with the place, emphasizing the countless memories they have created there over the years.
Holding up a document, Rajini explains that by signing it, the residents can effectively halt the redevelopment plans. She suggests that someone they trust from the community should read the document first to ensure everyone understands what they are signing. Rajini points out that Anupama is a trusted figure among them and asks her to review the papers and gather everyone’s signatures. The residents, displaying their unwavering faith in Anupama, are eager to sign immediately. However, Anupama, ever the voice of reason, advises them not to trust blindly and insists that they should read the documents thoroughly before making any commitments.
Rajini presses Anupama and the residents to make a quick decision so that they can initiate the process without delay. She also emphasizes the importance of keeping this plan a secret from the builder, hinting at her ulterior motives. Rajini thinks to herself that once she collects everyone’s signatures, she will manipulate the documents to her advantage.
Meanwhile, Parag contacts Rajini, informing her that he is ready to invest in the project. Rajini expresses her gratitude for his decision, feeling a surge of confidence. However, Parag expresses concern about Anupama’s involvement, but Rajini reassures him that they are destined to win and that Anupama remains completely unaware of their plans.
Later, Parag confronts Gautam, questioning why he concealed the fact that Anupama is currently staying at the chawl. Gautam explains that he believed Parag would become emotional upon learning this information. Parag clarifies that while he has a relationship with Anupama, he does not have any sentimental attachment to her. When Gautam presses for details about what Parag discussed with Rajini, Parag remains tight-lipped.
In another scene, Vasundhara inquires about Parag’s meeting with Rajini. Parag explains that Rajini and Anupama share a friendship. Gautam interjects, noting that while he was already aware of Parag’s relationship with Rajini, the fact that Anupama also knows her adds an unexpected twist to the situation.
Amidst this, Pari and Ishani are seen panicking about being late. Ishani stubbornly refuses to eat the homemade food, insisting on a more glamorous lifestyle. Later, Anupama asks Ishani to drop her off in Priya’s car, but Ishani declines, stating that she cannot insult Priya by bringing Anupama and her boxes in such a lavish vehicle. At that moment, Priya spots Ishani at the chawl. Ishani quickly lies, claiming she doesn’t live there and that she only came to try on a dress. Anupama is taken aback by Ishani’s behavior, sensing something is off. Preet, noticing Ishani’s attitude, becomes angry and worries that her actions could lead to serious trouble. Anupama remains disturbed by the entire situation.
Meanwhile, Prem and Rahi share a romantic moment, which stirs feelings of jealousy in Mahi. As Anupama struggles to reach the film set on time, Ishani relaxes in the car, seemingly unconcerned about her mother’s plight. Anupama is left scrambling to find an auto-rickshaw, highlighting the stark contrast between their attitudes.
In a separate conversation, Mahi complains to Gautam about feeling ignored. Gautam, ever the manipulator, tells Mahi that he is focused on finishing his work so he can spend quality time with her and their baby. Mahi admits to understanding his situation but confesses that she feels jealous when she sees Prem and Rahi together. Gautam then drops a bombshell, claiming that Rahi is having an affair and is backstabbing Prem. Mahi is taken aback by this revelation, while Gautam smirks, satisfied with the chaos he has sown.
At the film set, the director approaches Anupama, requesting that she teach his mother how to cook. Anupama asks for some time to adjust to her new job, but she soon learns that Ishani is causing trouble for everyone on set. Anupama firmly instructs the director to treat Ishani like any other actor, urging him not to hesitate because of her status.
However, Ishani continues to throw tantrums, displaying an arrogant attitude when the director asks her to shoot on time. She dismissively tells him to wait because she is busy, pushing Anupama to her breaking point. Frustrated by Ishani’s behavior, Anupama finally loses her temper, setting the stage for a confrontation.
**Precap:** In a tense moment, Bharti approaches Anupama, expressing that Mangesh is troubling her once again. Anupama immediately rushes to Bharti’s side, determined to protect her and warns Mangesh to stay away from her, ready to confront any challenges that come her way.
