Today’s episode opens with Parag questioning why Kapil remained silent about the abuse for such a long time. Anupama explains that nobody would have trusted his story. She points out that boys grow up hearing that only girls should cry. When men talk about being hurt, people laugh at them or call them weak for showing feelings.
Anupama stresses that society must encourage men to speak openly about their struggles. She reminds everyone of a similar situation Pakhi had treated her husband Adit the same way.
Kapil’s Confession
Parag directly asks Kapil if Kriti had been hurting him. Kapil confirms she has been mistreating him for years. Anupama displays Kapil’s injuries as evidence. Vasundhara refuses to believe him, but Kapil stands firm on his truth. He explains he tried speaking up before, but everyone dismissed him. Anupama was the first person who actually listened and believed him.
Anupama challenges Vasundhara for overlooking Kapil’s visible wounds. She states that tears always tell the truth. Kapil adds that assuming men don’t experience pain is completely wrong. He emphasizes that men quietly bear a lot of suffering. Gautam privately thinks Kapil should have fought back instead of showing emotion.
Anupama’s Powerful Message
Anupama declares firmly that abuse remains abuse regardless of who experiences it—it has no gender. She criticizes society for treating men’s and women’s tears differently. Parag agrees that everyone deserves equal treatment and education. Prem voices his support for Kapil.
Anupama recommends that Parag contact the police and register a complaint against Kriti. Kriti boldly challenges Parag to involve the authorities, threatening to make up a false story that would land the entire family in jail.
Kriti’s Shocking Confession
Parag asks Kriti why she didn’t simply divorce Kapil if she disliked him so intensely instead of destroying his life. Kriti admits she despises Kapil but reveals her parents forced the marriage on her. They warned they would cut her off from family wealth if she left him. She declares that money matters most and questions why she should lose her inheritance.
Vasundhara asks if money truly means everything to Kriti. Kriti turns the accusation around, claiming Vasundhara is equally focused on wealth. She brings up how when the Kothari house faced financial trouble, Vasundhara faced pressure to leave despite family support. Kriti warns everyone not to call the police. Anupama sternly tells Kriti to speak respectfully.
Family Unity Against Abuse
Meeta states that someone like Kriti needs to face consequences. Rahi, Anil, and the remaining family members stand behind Kapil. Parag promises Kapil will receive proper justice. When Kriti asks Vasundhara for support, Vasundhara chooses to side with Anupama and the Kotharis instead.
Shah Family Money Problems
Meanwhile, Kinjal accidentally runs into Pakhi carrying cash and questions her about it. Pakhi explains that Diwakar plans to start a coaching center and requires financial help. Kinjal cautions Pakhi about her choices. Hasmukh attempts to make Pakhi see she’s making a poor decision.
Hasmukh then gets a phone call that shocks him. Kinjal and Paritosh ask what’s wrong. He shares that his friend is sick and he needs to visit him. However, Pakhi and Paritosh refuse to give him money for the trip. Hasmukh becomes emotional, understanding his children are deliberately preventing him from going to Delhi.
Anupama Prepares to Leave
Later, Anupama gets ready to depart. Parag and Khyati thank her for defending Kapil. Anupama encourages Vasundhara to move past old troubles and embrace the joy ahead—Prarthana is expecting a baby. Vasundhara mentions she also hopes to see Prem and Rahi’s baby soon.
Rahi and Prem clarify they’re not prepared for children yet. Vasundhara argues that having a child doesn’t stop careers and asks Anupama to persuade them. Parag suggests postponing this conversation, but Vasundhara insists that Anupama must talk to Rahi about it.
