In another part of the house, Manish informs Surekha that Anupama is going to visit them, and Surekha’s excitement is evident. When Anupama arrives at the Goenka house, she is warmly welcomed by Manish and Surekha. As they engage in conversation, Manish notices that Anupama has difficulty walking, but she reassures him not to worry about her.
Kaveri, on the other hand, warmly welcomes Leela and Vanraj. The Poddars are surprised to see the strong bond between Kaveri and Leela. Kaveri then introduces the Poddar family to Leela.

As the preparations for the celebration continue, Anupama, Surekha, and Manish start cooking together. At one point, Kaveri, concerned about Abhira, asks Leela if she had said anything offensive to Abhira. Leela and Vanraj assure her that everything is fine. However, Kaveri brings up the topic of Abhira potentially changing her name, a decision that she does not want to be made in front of Arman. Abhira, however, firmly refuses to change her name and discusses the matter with Arman. Arman supports Abhira, telling her that her name is a significant part of her identity, and she should never lose it. He even mentions the hashtag #AbhiMaan, highlighting the importance of her name.
Anupama and Manish also discuss the importance of maintaining one’s identity, with Manish expressing his desire to savor Anupama’s cooking. Amidst these discussions, Kaveri grows worried as the chef she hired gets into an accident, leaving the meal preparation in jeopardy. Abhira steps in to assist Kaveri and calls Manish for help. Anupama, hearing about Abhira’s trouble, also decides to lend a hand. Meanwhile, Leela impatiently demands that Kaveri serve the food, adding to Kaveri’s anxiety. However, Abhira and Anupama manage to impress the Poddars with their cooking, much to Vanraj’s chagrin. Vanraj, unhappy with Anupama’s involvement, makes a snide remark, questioning what she is doing there. In contrast, Arman praises Abhira’s efforts, though Ruhi, frustrated with Manish’s constant support for Abhira, becomes visibly upset.
Kaveri, still concerned, asks Vanraj if he is aware of Anupama’s presence. Vanraj shares his connection with Anupama, and Kaveri expresses her displeasure, feeling that Abhira has upset her guest by involving Anupama. Abhira feels bad for causing any discomfort to Anupama, who consoles her, saying everything will be fine.
As the day progresses, Arman tries to have a romantic moment with Abhira, but they are caught by Anupama, who remembers her past with Anuj. Anupama then senses that Aadya is in trouble and vows to find her soon. Abhira, upon learning about Aadya’s situation, tries to comfort Anupama.
Later, Ruhi reminds Abhira that time is running out, urging her to make a decision soon. When Anupama finds out that Kaveri has asked Abhira to change her name, Abhira becomes worried about Kaveri’s reaction. Anupama, however, encourages Abhira to stay true to herself and not lose her identity for anyone. Ruhi, on the other hand, decides to inform Kaveri about Anupama’s advice to Abhira, adding tension to the situation.
Anupama then tries to convince Kaveri not to force Abhira to change her name. When Arman learns about the pressure Kaveri is putting on Abhira, he confronts her, leading to Kaveri’s anger towards Anupama for supporting Abhira. Kaveri accuses Anupama of instigating Abhira and insults her. Anupama, standing up for herself, does not back down, and Abhira, inspired by Anupama’s strength, also refuses to change her name. She expresses her love for the Poddars but makes it clear that she will not compromise her self-respect. Arman, impressed by both Anupama and Abhira’s stand, salutes them for their powerful stance on self-respect.
The episode concludes with a joyful moment as Abhira, Ruhi, and Anupama dance together. Anupama, filled with emotion, insists that Abhira ties a Rakhi to Ruhi, further strengthening their bond. Although she enjoys the moment, Anupama also misses Anuj and imagines dancing with him as the episode ends.
