Anupama finishes her work and asks Anuj what else she needs to do. He asks to keep some work for tomorrow. She gets up. He feels sudden headache. She asks what happened. He says its just a head rush as he didn’t sleep whole night. She asks why? He says he gets migraines. She asks if he took medicine. He says he didn’t have food yet.
She scolds him, brings chocolate milkshake and orders him to finish it before she counts 10. He finishes it before she counts 8. She smiles and says a boss should scold employee, but she is scolding him. He recites shayari. She asks him to speak normally which she can understand, she will send him something to eat, and walks away. He thinks she was with him today whole day, what will happen to him next.
At night, Anu walks to Vanraj with tea and says she came to talk and not fight, tea should be hot and not brain, they may not be couple now but are parents and have to face each other whole life. She asks why he is afraid of losing her when she is not his at all, he never respected her when she was his, he had an affair with Kavya and doesn’t want her to have friendship with Anuj.
she never questioned him whole life and he is questioning her always and doesn’t want her to be happy, does family belongs to only him, who is he to question her, he made a mistake and she is being punished for his mistake, till when she will suffer even after divorce, she just sought peace and nothing else during divorce, when they fight family divides into 2 and they can stop it and not let other relationships go sour. He gets conscious hearing phone ring and realizes its his imagination. He notices Anu returning from office and walks towards her, but then gets jealous seeing her speaking to Anuj over phone and shuts door angrily.
Anuj kneads dough while cooking dinner with GK. GK says he has to knead dough and not wrestle and sensing his dilemma asks reason. He says he is remembering Anu and wants to speak to her. GK asks him to go ahead. He says he has his own limitations and has to follow them. GK says he can pray Kanhaji though. AT Anu’s house, while cooking, Anu asks Kinjal and Nandini to prepare a list of working women who can cook well. Kinjal says they can take NGO help. Anu says they can take Baa’s help and asks if her friends can work as cooks. Baa hearing her warns to humiliate her and not her friends. Nandini asks where is a question of humiliation here. Baa yells she is not yet her bahu, so she should keep her mouth shut. Anu asks if they can take her friend Vimla’s help. Baa says her friend is rich and will not work, she ruined her house and shouldn’t ruin other’s house now as others don’t have a rich friend like Anu to handle their financial situation.
They hear Kavya confronting Vanraj for ruining cafe menu and his attention towards Anu and Anuj instead of cafe. He stares at her. She says instead of giving these looks, he should concentrate on orders, she wasted her time in his cafeteria instead of finding a job. Vanraj says its getting a little too much. She says he is crossing limits by thinking only about Anu and Anuj, in fact he should change menu in Anu and Anuj’s name. He shouts stop it. She says if he doesn’t want to join Anuj, he can at least concentrate on his cafe; she got a chance to work with Anuj, but he ruined it and now has to sell coffee in his cafe. Baa yells at Anu that a relationship which ruins other relationship should be broken as a man and a woman can never be friends. Kinjal asks Anu to ignore Baa’s illogical words. Anu says it hurts when dear ones yell, she cannot change her decision and Baa cannot change her arrogance, so lets concentrate on work.
Kavya insists Vanraj to handover cafeteria to her. He says she wants to become an entrepreneur like Anuj, but she couldn’t handle a simple job without him. She shouts he is insulting her. He says she insulted him outside. She says he is always angry and cannot run a business that way, he used to smell masalas from Anu and now he cannot part ways with her. He shouts enough, she shouldn’t dare to insult him in front of his family or else he can change his wife even now. Baa hearing their argument thinks her family is bearing a burn because and Anu and Anuj and prays Thakurji to do something and end Anu and Anuj’s menace. Kinjal suggests Anu to create an email for herself as every communication is made via e-mail. Anu asks to go ahead then. Nandini says she will make her e-mail on Anuj’s company website and tries, but says anupama id is not available and she needs to add 123 or something. Anu asks her to add extra A and name Anupamaa. Nandini creates ID. Anu says there will be maa in her always.
Anuj sees Anu’s first e-mail and gets happy. He gets a call and gets serious asking if its tomorrow. GK taunts him. Anuj calls Anu and informs her something. She also gets tensed. Next morning, Vanraj sees Anu with her bag and asks if she is going to London this time. Anu says she is here, but Samar is going to Delhi for some work. She gets Samar’s call. Vanraj snatches her phone and asks Samar where is he. Anu says Samar is busy in rehearsals and hence is friend Varun will pick his bag. Vanraj argues with Samar. Anu asks him to stop yelling at Samar as he is going for a corporate event and will be back in 4 days. Vanraj says when nobody is bothered about him, why should he bother. Baa says nothing will happen to his son as Anuj is sending him to his corporate event. Vanraj gets more jealous.
Samar asks Vanraj not to ask him to cancel his corporate dance event he doesn’t want to miss a big opportunity. Vanraj says his father has to pay for it, his children are going away from him and he can’t tolerate it. Samar says he is stuck with the same issue and asks Anu to concentrate on her work and disconnects call. Vanraj asks if Anuj is sending him also in business class; warns Anu that he doesn’t care if her friend comes closer to her, but if he tries to snatch his children from him, he will not tolerate that and will raise his hands. Anu ignoring him walks away asking Kinjal to handover Samar’s bags to Varun and serve tea for Vanraj or else he will continue to grumble. Kavya also leaves saying even she has some work. Baa complains god that its injustice that her son stays at home and these 2 women go out on work freely.
At Anuj’s office, Anu shows her prepared business plan to Devika. Devika praises her. Anu thanks her and says she had to respect the trust she and Anuj has on her. Devika asks what about people who disrespect her, how is family environment after bhoomi poojan. Anu says only 2 things are not okay in the world, one is inflation and another is Mr Shah and she doesn’t care for both of them, her goal is to fly without bothering about his taunts. Devika says that is the spirit. Anu says her father used to encourage her to dream big, god has sent Anuj as a blessing in disguise for her and as Bapuji says god sends his blessings via someone and he sent it to her via Anuj. Anuj enters and gets happy hearing that. Nazar ke saamne jigar ke paas… song plays in the background. He greets them good morning and asks how will they hear cooks. Anu says since they are short of time, they should organize a cooking competition with a prize so that women’s families don’t have any problem, they will try to convince whoever cooks well to work for them. Anu likes her idea with a condition that she becomes competition’s judge. Anu says even he should. He agrees and tries to shake hands with 2 of them, but Devika backs off letting them shake hands.
Samar video calls Samar and informs that he reached Delhi and his crew is coming in next cab. She says she is nervous as Anuj gave him a good platform and he should make good use of it. He says he will. She hopes Rohan doesn’t trouble him. He asks her not to worry. Rohan hears her conversation hiding. Vanraj returns to his cafeteria fuming at Samar and calls Kayva to find where she kept his credit card, he gets more angry when she doesn’t pick call and thinks if she went to seek job from Anuj. Kavya visits Anuj when he is busy discussing business ideas with Anu and requests him give her 5 minutes to discuss something. He asks regarding what. She says regarding his job offer to her. He says he is in the middle of something and asks her to wait in his cabin till he finishes. Kavya waits for him in his cabin and remembering Vanraj’s drama hopes there won’t be any problem this time. Vanraj at cafeteria tells customers that he removed Anupama special dish from menu. A teenager customer says he comes at least 4 times a week for that dish and requests to get it prepared. Vanraj angrily shouts he will not serve that dish. Another teenager comments uncle is getting angry. Vanraj more angrily shouts at him to get out of his cafe. All other customers also walk away. Mamaji suggests him that he is not a businessman but understands its bad when customers walks away disappointed; he should remember that this cafe opened and was running because of Anu but will close because of Vanraj; he didn’t do right by removing Anu’s name and everything is with Anupama. Chef suggests Vanraj to re-include Anupama special dish as they are losing customers. Vanraj asks if he knows to prepare that dish. He says he tired but failed, so he should take Anu’s help again.
Anuj tells Anu that he and GK wanted to hire Kavya thinking her as an asset for the company with Anu, Kavya, and Devika being their woman army; giving or not giving job to Kavya because of Vanraj is not right, but he doesn’t want to put her in any comfortable situation as keeping personal and professional life separate is difficult; he is a businessman and he never took a businessman decision with personal perspective; its her project and he doesn’t want to put her in any uncomfortable situation, she would be facing Kavya both at home and office, so decision is up to her. She says its not about her and Kavya but about Vanraj’s arrogance. Back at cafe, Vanraj angrily shouts at chef to get out for praising Anu. Chef leaves saying when he couldn’t respect Anu, why will he respect him. He gets Kavya’s message and fumes that she doesn’t have time to write call back, thinks where is she and what is she up to.
Anuj returns to his cabin. Kavya says she really wants to work as whatever happened in her personal life was beyond her control, but she can control her professional life; she doesn’t want to sit idle at home and wants to work, etc. Anuj says whatever happened in his personal space cannot change the fact that she is talent and deserve a job, but he doesn’t want a daily soap at his office; his project and his partner are most important to him and he doesn’t want her husband to come and create a drama here. She assures and thanks him for giving her job.
He says Anu gave her job, her family didn’t value Anu, but Anu gave her job and she is because of Anu; he reminds her again that he doesn’t want any daily soap here and like Anu says they cannot mingle their personal and professional life; if something happens, she will lose her career.
Kavya gets tensed. Vanraj repeatedly calls Kavya and gets more angry.
