Check out Anupamaa’s written episode update for episode 1960 airing on 18 March 2026.

Today’s episode begins with Digvijay screaming at Banku for being 10 minutes late, and as he lectures him on time and punctuality, Anupama (Rupali Ganguly) breaks in. She confronts Digvijay, asking if he doesn’t talk to anyone; that doesn’t mean nobody will talk to anyone and live. Digvijay stops Anupama from interfering, but she still speaks, saying that sometimes it is better to be late, and she also emphasizes the sacrifices Banku makes for him.

Anupama’s words leave Digvijay wondering about his daughter, and even he wishes that, sometimes, being late is better. Anupama also mourns the passing of her children. At the same time, Ansh and Jaspreet’s togetherness bothers Toshu, and he instigates Leela against Jaspreet, who decides to find a girl for Ansh soon.

Prem (Shivam Khajuria) asks Raahi (Adrija Roy) about her worries for Maahi, and she shares her concerns, expressing her wish to help Maahi prove herself. Prem appreciates Raahi’s thinking, who credits Anupama for that. Prem drops Raahi off at her work, while Prerna joins Prem, and as she sits in the car, she spots Gautam with another girl. She keeps wondering if she should tell Prem about it or not.

Later, Anupama finds a job related to cashews. After working for the whole day, in the evening she asks her co-workers to have tea, but that turns out to be the opposite. At the same time, Prem surprises Vasundhara with his first cheque from the restaurant, while Raahi’s salary doesn’t impress Vasundhara, but Prem appreciates her. Raahi stands her ground, while Anupama gets expelled from the job as she takes a stand for a co-worker.
