The episode begins..
Gurumaa Malti Devi tells Anupama to create a dance story in just 5 minutes and perform it in front of her.
Nakul asks Gurumaa if she won't get tired from meeting so many contestants in a day.
Gurumaa says she knows her job.
Nakul wonders if 5 minutes is too short to create a story.
Gurumaa says that maybe it's short for the world, but not for a woman. She explains that a woman can make a child sleep with a lullaby at night, wake up early in the morning, prepare tea five times in five minutes and make decisions in five minutes.
So, she believes a woman can create a story too.
Bhairavi asks Anupama what she will do now.
Gurumaa asks who this girl is. Nakul explains that she is a vegetable vendor's daughter who has been staying with Anupama since her father's death.
Gurumaa asks how he knows about it.
Nakul says he inquired.
Anupama nervously prays to Kanhaji for an idea and realizes she needs to find inspiration within herself.
She closes her eyes and recalls all the events from her life.
Gurumaa interrupts and says time is up asking if Anupama is ready.
Anupama responds with a yes.
Leela keeps calling Anupama and wonders if she went to meet Malti Devi or the prime minister.
Anupama dances beautifully to the song "Tujhe Sab Hai Pata Meri Maa" which portrays the strong bond between a child and mother.
Bhairavi supports her during the performance.
Gurumaa becomes emotional while watching Anupama's dance and asks her to stop.
Nakul guides the students and takes Anupama away from there.
He then asks Gurumaa to sit down.
Nakul expresses how he hasn't seen such a captivating performance in years; it was as if Lord Natraj himself was dancing.
He was so absorbed in Anupama's performance that he didn't realize Gurumaa must have been moved by it.
Nakul believes that finding someone as precious as Anupama is difficult and encourages Gurumaa to consider her for their grand USA tour.
Anupama is waiting nervously outside and hoping that Gurumaa will select her.
Bharavi suggests that Anupama may not have performed well and their performance got spoiled. Anupama disagrees and says that she has performed really well.
Nakul informs Anupama that Gurumaa is calling her.
Anupama walks over to Gurumaa.
Gurumaa tells Anupama that she had high expectations of her and Anupama performed even better than expected.
Anupama feels excited and asks if she can touch Gurumaa's feet as a student.
Gurumaa gives her permission.
Anupama touches Gurumaa's feet and says that it feels like the 12-year-old Anupama is dancing in front of her gurumaa's photo and her dream has come true today.
She continues describing her excitement when Gurumaa interrupts her.
Gurumaa explains that a student is like the shadow of her guru/teacher and the shadow always accompanies its body.
Therefore, Anupama will go wherever Gurumaa goes.
The main branch of the gurukul is in the USA and Anupama needs to stay in the USA with Gurumaa and perform on stage on her behalf.
She can take Bharavi along with her.
The gurukul will take care of Anupama and Bharavi's expenses.
As a result, Anupama has to sign a 3-year contract and cannot meet her family until then.
Anupama stands speechless.
Leela notices Samar happily telling Dimpy that they have set a date for their wedding in a month. Dimpy also feels joyful upon hearing the news.
Leela then proceeds to call Anupama.
Gurumaa mentions how people treat women like goddesses and expect them to stay confined within the home forever.

She describes how women are often forced to make sacrifices by men and emphasizes the importance of breaking free from those restrictions in order to grow.
Gurumaa says that if Anupama can break free from the expectations of her family and move forward, only then can she join the gurukul.
She explains that dance is a form of penance and Anupama cannot fully dedicate herself to it if burdened with the responsibilities of being a mother-in-law and taking care of her children.
Gurumaa offers Anupama some contract documents and advises her to carry the weight of her talent rather than emotional baggage on her journey.
Bharavi informs Anupama that she received a call from Leela.
Malti looks at Anupama and suggests that she can take some time to think before making a decision.
Anupama expresses that she has always chosen responsibilities over her own dreams in the past but today she will prioritize her own dreams.
With that determination, she signs the contract, recalling past events.
In the background, the song "Lakshya Ko Har Haal Me Paana Hai" starts playing.
