Anupamaa : CloudBurst !

Anuj tells Anupama that he had many girls in his life, some as friend, some as girlfriend, some as a night companion. He met many and had affairs, but couldn’t love anyone; its not that those girls had something missing in them, he couldn’t love them and it would have been injustice to the girls if he had married one of them; usually one falls in love after marriage, but what if it doesn’t there is one-sided love in marriage. Anu remembers Vanraj’s betrayal.

Anuj says he would have married, but couldn’t as he didn’t want to take risk. She says he can marry even now as he doesn’t look more than 30, rich, and handsome; he should marry as everyone needs a life partner. He laughs and mimicking Salman Khan says there are 2 kind of people, one can be married and sad and other can be unmarried and happy, he chose to be happy. She laughs. He says he had a bad luck in love, but he has learnt to live happily. She continues laughing. He asks when she told everyone needs a life partner, then why don’t she marry. She says she doesn’t need a life partner.

Vanraj writhes with leg pain and headache. Nandini gives him pain killer. He thanks her. She says feels bad when he hurts Anu and hurts himself in the process and gives an example of a kid playing in a dirt. She says a lot happened in this house recently and she feels it was just a built up and real drama will start now, he should handle it if it happens.

Anu tells Anuj that she doesn’t have a place for a life partner in her life, not because she is a mother of grown up children, but because she doesn’t have courage to love or bear pain as she did it once and can’t again. She says one can tolerate a young age love, but cannot a mature age love; she gathered herself with great difficulty, but can’t again. He mimics Salman Khan again and says she is right and should join Mamaji’s single’s club membership; as he said she can be happily unmarried than unhappily married. She laughs again. He says can they go now after his bad mimicry. She says yes. They pray god again and return to car. Ek Duje Ke Vaaste.. song plays in the background. Climate changes. Back in car, Anu messages Bapuji that they are leaving and will reach home by evening. Rain starts. Anu says its an unseasonal rain like cooking competition day. He says he can’t see roads due to heavy rain.

Family gets concerned for Anu. Pakhi asks Toshu about Kinjal. Toshu says she has gone to Mumbai for conference. Bapuji says Anu messaged that she will return by evening. Samar says her phone is not reachable. Anuj’s car gets stuck. He tries to make a call, but doesn’t find network. She says its heavily raining and even her phone doesn’t have a network. He says he will go out and check and asks her to be in car. She says they both will go out together and jokes giving example of a movie.

He offers her umbrella. She asks if he is waterproof. He says he is also not made of salt. He holds umbrella and gets her out. She slips. He holds her and drops umbrella. They get drenched. He removes his blazer and drapes it over her. She remembers seeing a house nearby and reminds him discussing about it. He says he remembers. She asks is it. He murmurs he remembers her each word. They both head towards the house.

Bapuji speaks to GK over phone and assures him that Anuj would be fine. Vanraj gets worried for Anu. Baa with a frowning face asks what is he blabbering. Samar says its better for mummy and Anuj to stay in a hotel than driving in rain. Baa determines to punish Anu if she doesn’t return home today. Anu and Anuj reach a hope and ring bell hoping they can make a call from there. Two boys half open door. Anuj requests to let them make a call. Boys says they can’t trust strangers and cannot allow them in.

Anu says they are right as she also taught children not to trust strangers. Anuj asks them to check his name on internet. They check and get excited seeing him and say they were partying with friends in their guest house. They take them in and introduce famous NRI businessman Anuj Kapadia to their friends. Anuj apologizes for disturbing their party. Anu calls from landline and informs Bapuji that they are stuck in rain and reached a house. Samar suggests to stay there tonight as there is a cloud burst in that area. Vanraj, Toshu, and Baa frown hearing that.

Precap: Anu and Anuj dance with youngsters. Vanraj calls landline and enquires about Anupama. Boy says uncle and aunty are resting in a room. Vanraj gets angry and waits to humiliate Anu. Kavya provokes him.
