Anupamaa: Ansh finally discovers what's been troubling Ishani all along

In tonight's episode of Anupamaa, the tension between family members intensifies. Anupama expresses her disappointment in Dolly, explaining that Meenu's disregard for Dolly stems from her lack of respect towards Sagar. She reflects on Pakhi's behaviour, remarking that while Pakhi had multiple times asked her to stay out of her issues, she now comes with complaints. When it comes to her son Toshu, Anupama points out his ego and notes that despite giving him numerous chances, he remains unsatisfied with her efforts, even calling him a "loser."

She mentions her consistent support for Kinjal, yet she faces only Kinjal's anger in return. Touching on Leela's loyalty to her son Vanraj, she questions why Leela still wants her to uphold a marriage with someone who betrayed her and the Shah family. Frustrated, Anupama urges the Shah family to take a hard look at themselves and, reclaiming a gift she had given, decides to offer it to someone who will genuinely bless her rather than those who always find reasons to criticise.

Rahi takes on the role of a waitress:

Prem, Ishani, Rahi, Mahi, Ansh, and Pari are seen enjoying the party. Ishani is taken aback upon spotting Kunal and pulls him aside for a private conversation. Determined to resolve matters, she promises Kunal that she'll return the money she owes him. Ansh, noticing their interaction, questions Ishani about Kunal. Realising that Ansh is Ishani's brother, Kunal accuses Ishani of damaging his car after borrowing it, demanding repayment. Ansh steps in, insisting on paying Kunal back, while Ishani apologises to him for the trouble. When Ansh questions her about borrowing the car, Ishani admits that she did so to create the illusion of independence. Rahi then advises her to be genuine in her actions and decisions.

In a separate scene, Meet urges the event manager to hire a server immediately. Rahi volunteers, taking on the task of serving drinks. As Anupama waits for the children to gather for the Diwali celebration, Meet discreetly spikes some of the drinks at the party

Rahi and Prem are blamed:

Rahi puts on the uniform and begins her shift as a waitress. Her decision doesn't go unnoticed, as Ansh, Mahi, and Pari spot her and start questioning her choice. She calmly reassures them that she's perfectly comfortable working as a server at the event, explaining that she genuinely needs the money.

Unaware that some of the drinks have been spiked, Ansh, Pari, Mahi, and Ishani consume them without suspicion. To boost Rahi's spirits, Prem joins in by helping serve appetisers, bringing a smile to her face. While walking through the venue, Rahi accidentally bumps into a girl who accuses her of intentionally pushing and ruining her outfit. When Rahi tries to defend herself, the girl misinterprets her response and attempts to slap her, but Rahi intervenes. Their argument escalates until Meet steps in, demanding that Rahi clean up the area. Just as Rahi is about to comply, Prem steps in to support her.

Meet, who recognises Prem as a friend, instructs him to take his friends and leave the venue, and Prem reluctantly agrees. Meanwhile, Prem overhears Meet talking to a friend about spiking the drinks, leaving him stunned.

Soon after, Rahi is shocked as Ansh, Pari, Mahi, and Ishani begin acting wildly under the influence of the spiked drinks, which makes Prem worry that Anupama's trust in him might be shattered.

Back at the Shah household, Anupamaa is stunned to see the Shah children under the influence of alcohol behaving erratically. Leela confronts Anupamaa, furious that she had placed her trust in Prem and Rahi. In a moment of accusation, Ishani informs the family that Rahi was the one who served them drinks, and Ansh discloses that Prem had deceived them to join the party.

Precap for the next episode:

In the precap, Prem attempts to defend his actions, but Anupama, hurt and frustrated, decides to expel Prem from the house.
