In today’s episode, the Kotharis engage in a lively game of cricket, but chaos ensues when Raja gets injured. Leela dramatically declares that the Kotharis are finished. Taking charge, Parag steps up to play, with Anupama bowling for him. A friendly challenge arises as Anupama asks Rahi to catch the ball to prevent a Kothari victory. However, Prem wishes for Parag to lose, and Rahi fails to catch the ball, leading to the Kotharis claiming victory. Leela gloatingly announces that the groom’s side has won, while Prem suspects that Rahi dropped the ball on purpose. Parag, reminiscing about his childhood, acknowledges that he wasn’t playing, while Hasmuk emphasizes the importance of keeping a childlike spirit alive. Prem, visibly frustrated, reacts harshly.
Meanwhile, Anupama discovers that Baa is suffering from gas. She reassures Baa not to feel ashamed about age-related issues. Leela shares that she once felt ashamed too, prior to Anupama’s encouragement. Anupama asserts that women often face pressure to remain silent and should confide in one another instead.
Raja confides in Ishani, claiming he tried to sabotage the Kothari team but was thwarted by Parag. He urges Ishani not to be upset. Convinced that Meeta is arranging Raja’s marriage, Ishani devises a plan to win Raja’s affection. Raja boldly requests a kiss, but Ishani attempts to evade him. Raja then forcibly advances, leaving Ishani uncomfortable. Baa witnesses the alarming scene and is taken aback. Anupama, sensing something amiss, inquires about what’s happening. Baa, with a sharp tongue, questions whether Anupama is intent on marrying off yet another daughter.
Anupama swiftly pulls Ishani into a private room for a confrontation. She pressures Ishani for an explanation, while Pakhi interjects, revealing that Ishani and Raja have feelings for each other. Anupama questions Ishani’s knowledge of Raja. Meanwhile, Baa sternly warns Raja to end his relationship with Ishani, hinting at dire consequences if he doesn’t comply, leaving Raja anxious.
Anupama realizes that Pakhi is coercing Ishani into a relationship with Raja and expresses concern that Pakhi is repeating past mistakes. She advises Ishani to think for herself and disregard Pakhi’s influence. Pakhi retaliates, accusing Anupama of only caring about Rahi. Anupama responds firmly, stating Pakhi can believe whatever she wants. Pakhi then insists that Ishani should disregard Anupama and follow her lead.
Baa approaches Anupama, expressing concern that girls bear the brunt of difficulties rather than boys. She decides to prepare prasad and seeks Anupama’s permission, which is granted. Later, Rahi and Prem have a confrontation where Rahi explains the reason for her performance in the match, ultimately convincing Prem of her perspective.
Baa turns the conversation to Anupama, questioning why she hasn’t taught Rahi how to cook. Anupama defends Rahi’s strengths in business, just like Prem enjoys cooking. Baa probes whether Prem will take up cooking duties after the marriage and queries Anupama about Mahi’s feelings for Prem. She criticizes Anupama for focusing on her business instead of household management. Anupama reflects on the sacrifices elders often endure due to their children’s mistakes and resolves to prepare for Rahi’s wedding.
As the episode wraps up, the precap reveals Anupama managing catering for Rahi’s mehendi ceremony. A guest taunts her about the catering job, but Anupama confidently responds that she finds joy in serving.
