In today’s episode, Paritosh compliments Prem for his efforts, to which Prem expresses his gratitude. Meanwhile, the staff urges the Shahs to get in the car, reminding them that the Kotharis value punctuality. Anupama advises the Shahs to leave, informing them that she will join them later after making a visit to the temple. At the temple, Anupama seeks Lord Krishna’s blessings, feeling empowered to confront the Kotharis.
Upon arrival, the Kotharis warmly welcome the Shahs, although Prem pointedly ignores Khyati. Baa encourages Prem and Rahi to touch the food so she can distribute it to those in need, but Prem suspects the Kotharis’ sincerity, while Rahi defends them as genuine. Pakhi, trying to play matchmaker, confuses Gautam with Raja and insists that Ishani befriend him. After realizing her mistake, Pakhi asks Ishani to find Raja, but Ishani dismisses the idea.
Paritosh comments on how the Kotharis respect the Shahs more than they respect themselves. As the introductions unfold, Prem accidentally bumps into Parag, prompting Baa to interrupt and insist that Prem embrace her. Anupama has a brief slip, but is steadied by Prem, surprising both Parag and Baa.
Curious, Pakhi asks Baa if she can explore their house, but Baa requests that she wait until after prayers. Anupama is lost in her thoughts as the Kotharis and Shahs continue their introductions. Pakhi attempts to flirt with Raja but is halted by Ishani, while Mahi reflects on how, had Rahi not interfered, she could have been the Kotharis’ daughter-in-law.
Meanwhile, Radha argues with Badshah when they cross paths, and Ansh introduces himself to Gautam, who responds dismissively, stating he doesn’t mix office talk with home life. Prathana notices the tension between Gautam and Ansh.
Anil invites Prem to sit with them, but he opts to sit alongside Anupama and Rahi, provoking anger from Parag and Baa. Anil praises Prem as the favorite child, prompting Rahi to encourage him to smile, which further irks Parag.
Later, the Kotharis invite the Shahs to join in prayer, and they are taken aback to see an idol of Lord Krishna. Khyati prompts Rahi to lead the prayer, with Anupama cheering her on. Rahi steps up to perform the ritual, leading Neeta to comment that Rahi’s prayer style resembles Baa’s.
**Precap:** Baa brings up the topic of divorce, and Parag makes a jibe at Anupama. Baa expresses her views on women working, to which Rahi responds that girls today do work. Baa insists that young women can only work if they are not left helpless.
