Ankush, Barkha, and Adhik paid an unexpected visit to Anupama's home and greeted the family. 

However, Pakhi questioned their uninvited arrival, to which Barkha explained that they were relatives. 

Pakhi expressed her dissatisfaction, causing Adhik to intervene and request proper behavior. Barkha apologized to Anupama for any inconvenience and expressed her desire for the Kapadia family to reunite. 

Ankush inquired about Anuj's whereabouts, but Samar informed them that his phone was switched off, possibly due to a delayed flight. 

Soon after, Vanraj, Leela, and Toshu arrived at the house, and Hasmukh welcomed them. 

Leela and Vanraj acknowledged their selfish intentions but stated that they wanted to partake in Anupama's happiness. 

However, Kanta believed that Vanraj, Leela, and Barkha were present to ruin Anupama's happiness.

Anupama called the airport and was informed that Anuj's flight had landed.

This led to everyone's applause. 

However, Kanta noticed Vanraj and Barkha's insincere smiles. 

Later, Samar informed Anupama that Anuj's phone was still switched off, causing Vanraj to suggest that Anuj might have missed his flight. 

Hasmukh and Anupama considered other possibilities, but Anupama felt that something was wrong as Anuj would have contacted her through someone else's phone if he faced any issue. 

Barkha tried calling Maaya but was unable to reach her, which made Anupama anxious, and the lights started flickering. 

Ankush informed Barkha that Anupama was nervous, and it would be tough for her if Anuj didn't return soon. 

Barkha speculated that Anuj might have only agreed to come due to Pakhi's insistence and didn't want to return.

As Anupama recalled  Anuj's expressions of missing her, Samar informed her that his friend went to the airport and discovered that Anuj's name was not on any Mumbai-bound flight. 

Vanraj suggested that Anuj might arrive on a later flight, while Leela proposed that Anuj might not come at all. 

Kanta provided comfort to Anupama by suggesting that something unexpected might have happened.

However, Anupama became agitated and insisted on visiting Mumbai to find Anuj. 

Ankush offered to accompany her, and just as they were leaving, Anuj called. 

Anupama answered the call anxiously, but then stood shocked, revealing that Anuj had decided to stay in Mumbai with Little Anu and Maaya.

The family members criticized Anuj's decision harshly, and Hasmukh attempted to call and scold him. 

Anupama disconnected the call and forbade anyone from discussing Anuj in her presence. 

Vanraj urged her to return to the Shah house, but Anupama refused and recited a poem, boasting of her independence and determination to live for herself from that moment on. 

She warned Leela not to speak and declared that she did not require anyone's help or assistance.
