Parag shifts Mahi and Gautam to the guest room; Kotharis welcome the Shahs in Anupamaa
In tonight’s Anupamaa episode, Pari, Ishani and Prerna finally return home, setting the stage for an emotionally charged turn of events. Parag remarks that Pari still has a long life ahead of her, as she unexpectedly joins the conversation. He then gently asks Anupama if he may take Pari back with him. Vasundhara adds that they wish to take Pari along respectfully and with dignity. Anupama is left shocked by this sudden development. Parag clarifies that this is a well-thought-out decision and assures Anupama that she can take her time before responding.
Soon after, Khyati informs everyone that the Shah family has been invited to Vasundhara’s birthday celebration. Parag personally extends the invitation, hoping to mend broken ties. However, Kinjal points out that despite multiple invitations in the past, the Kotharis have often insulted them. Accepting their mistakes, Parag expresses regret and says they genuinely want to rebuild their relationship. Anil also admits their past errors and shares his hope of starting afresh with the Shahs.
Meanwhile, Prerna decides to leave with Prem and Rahi. Vasundhara objects strongly, stating that she does not want Rajni’s daughter under her roof. Anupama and Rahi step in and manage to convince Vasundhara to let Prerna go with them. Rahi reminds her that Prerna played a crucial role in exposing Rajni. Eventually, the Kotharis head back home.
Back at the Shah house, Anupama assures Prarthana that she will stay with her until her delivery. Kinjal encourages Paritosh to be happy, reminding him that Pari is returning to her husband. Anupama advises Pari to take charge of her own life and make decisions independently. Ansh excitedly comments that this Valentine’s Day is going to be filled with romance.
On the other hand, Mahi and Gautam are furious after Parag shifts them to the guest room. Gautam believes that the arrival of their baby will help them regain Parag’s trust, but Mahi is determined to use this situation wisely so that Parag can never push them out again.
Later, Prem looks for Rahi and prepares a special cake for Vasundhara. As they spend time together, Prem and Rahi grow closer. During their conversation, Prem shares his wish to start a family, but Rahi clearly says she isn’t ready for a baby yet. Vasundhara overhears this and feels Rahi is hurting Prem by refusing motherhood. She believes Anupama is trying to fix everything, while Rahi is undoing it all.
Rahi later asks Prem if he truly meant what he said. Prem reassures her, saying he would never make such a big decision without her agreement. Rahi explains that she wants to have a child only when they are both financially stable and emotionally prepared. Prem understands her point of view, agrees with her, and sweetly mentions that he dreams of having a daughter someday.
Elsewhere, Hasmukh praises the tea made by Anupama. Paritosh and Pakhi question her about not gaining any advantage from her friendship with Rajni. Anupama firmly tells them to focus on their own lives instead of interfering in hers. She also warns Paritosh not to create problems between Pari and Raja, or he will face serious consequences.
At the Kothari house, Anil asks Meeta to leave, but she apologises for her actions. Anil says her apology has come too late. Meeta pleads with Parag to punish her if needed but not throw her out of the house. Parag explains that difficult times reveal the true nature of relationships and decides to let Meeta stay. Khyati adds that although Meeta can remain in the house, the trust she broke will take time to rebuild. Meeta promises to make things right and take care of everyone.
As preparations for Vasundhara’s birthday continue, Prem and Rahi are visibly excited. The Kotharis warmly welcome the Shah family. However, Meeta stops Pari at the entrance. When Anil questions her actions, Meeta explains that Pari should be welcomed properly and with respect. Prem is surprised by Meeta’s stance. Parag then instructs Meeta to formally welcome Pari into the house.
Anupama prays silently, asking God to handle everything. She encourages Pari to step inside and begin a new chapter of her life. Raja welcomes Pari by offering her a rose, while Prem and Rahi tease him playfully. Parag also welcomes Anupama by giving her flowers, acknowledging her presence with warmth.
In the precap, Vasundhara’s birthday celebrations are in full swing as both the Kotharis and Shahs enjoy together. Khyati and Parag entertain everyone by mimicking Hasmukh and Leela. Meanwhile, Rahi imitates Anupama and takes a light-hearted dig at Vasundhara, adding fun to the celebration.
