Meenu excitedly tells Anupama that she will spread the word about her food stall, predicting that it will attract a crowd on its first day. Kinjal chimes in with good wishes, and Meenu adds her support, expressing pride in Anupama’s venture. However, Vanraj questions Anupama, asking if she feels ashamed to have a stall in this place. Anupama confidently replies that she feels proud and makes a swastik sign on the stall with a plate.
Meenu signals Sagar to call her, but he ignores her, leaving Anupama determined not to let her hopes falter. Anuj breaks a coconut for a good start, and Baa gathers Kinjal, Meenu, and others, while Anuj wishes Anupama the best, hopeful that they will find Aadhya soon. Anupama reassures him that everything will turn out well. The next day, as Anupama launches her food stall, she prays for divine protection over her kitchen. She shares the news on social media under the name “Anu ki Rasoi,” showcasing the dishes she offers.
With prayers to Kanha ji, she begins cooking, starting with a bhog for God, while preparing other meals alongside. She places the bhog in front of God, intending to offer food to Kaveri and the birds as well. Anuj arrives with lemon and chili to ward off the evil eye, and Anupama asks him to hang it above the stall. As he follows her instructions, she removes any negative energy from him, and a song plays in the background. Meanwhile, Vanraj is exercising in his room when he catches a whiff of the delicious aromas coming from Anupama’s kitchen.
Baa joins him, commenting that despite their disagreements, Anupama is an excellent cook. He expresses his desire to taste her food, prompting Baa to say she will prepare it for him. Back at the stall, Anupama offers Anuj the first serving of her food, expressing gratitude for his support and how everything feels better when he is with her. Anuj tastes the food and shows her the empty bowl, indicating his approval. Titu wakes up, still mulling over Dimpy’s earlier remarks.
When Dimpy confronts him about a post he made about men feeling pain too, she threatens to share a cryptic message suggesting he is falling for the neighbor. Titu sarcastically encourages her to tag him directly. Anupama announces that they should inaugurate the stall before beginning to sell. Dimpy, feeling mischievous, refuses to accept a bouquet from Titu, instead throwing it at him. Vanraj questions the drama, to which Dimpy claims Titu is sending flowers to Nandita from Asha Bhavan.
Pakhi chimes in, suggesting an affair is brewing. Titu defends himself, explaining that the bouquet was meant for Anupama to celebrate her stall’s inauguration, not for Nandita. Meenu supports his claim, stating he respected his mother. Vanraj angrily asserts that no flowers should go to Anupama, while Pakhi insinuates that Meenu will send flowers for Sagar instead. Baa questions if Anupama is oblivious to the underlying tension.
After the inauguration, Anupama invites everyone from Asha Bhavan to enjoy the food, calling them her investors. Bala jokingly asks what they’ve invested, to which Anupama replies that they’ve invested their hopes, support, and courage. Babu ji insists they shouldn’t eat for free and should consider Anupama’s efforts. Bala suggests they will have breakfast as customers, and Sagar reminds her to keep her personal and professional lives separate.
Aadhya notices Anupama’s tiffin on the dining table, and Megha encourages her husband to take it. He decides to pass it to his niece instead. Aadhya insists the tiffin shouldn’t come back empty, and after a brief exchange, she fills it with chocolates and adds a message. Megha suggests adding more chocolates, and Aadhya happily complies before delivering the tiffin to the principal. Anupama declares her intention to serve homemade food, stating that where there is no mother, there is Anupama.
