Today’s episode begins with Banku crying a lot, but Anupama (Rupali Ganguly) asks him to be strong as they cannot fall weak because Digvijay needs their support. As Digvijay comes downstairs, he tells Anupama that he thought about what she said, but wonders how he will rediscover himself. Anupama welcomes Digvijay to her city, Ahmedabad, telling her that it’s the place meant for business, and also tells him that now he has to fulfill Saavi’s dream.
At the same time, Ishani cooks for everyone, but Pakhi screams at her for this. Leela scolds Pakhi, and Ishani refuses to listen to her. Maahi notices Ansh’s pain, and they discover that Gautam hit him. Anupama, with Banku and Bose, pack everything in the truck while Bose shares with Anupama about Digvijay’s past, revealing he was a renowned Kabbadi player and turned great coach too, but Saavi’s demise left him hopeless.
Meanwhile, the officials come to seize the Saavi villa. Anupama goes inside to ask Digvijay to come out as the government officials have arrived. At the same time, Maahi and Ishani take care of Ansh. Vasundhara plans to ruin Anupama’s life. Gautam tells her to also control Raahi; meanwhile, Raahi arrives, grabbing Gautam’s collar.
Raahi warns Gautam for trying to harm her family, while Vasundhara taunts her that she is like her mother. Raahi proudly accepts that she is not afraid to call out the wrong. Prem misunderstands and says that Raahi faked understanding him. Vasundhara again taunts Raahi that, like this, she will forever suffer when Anupama comes in.
While leaving, Anuj’s photo falls off Anupama’s bag, and Digvijay sees it. He asks her about Anuj, and Anupama asks how he knows about her husband. Digvijay shares how he met Anuj in America and shared his experience with his wife, whom he loved. Digvijay tells Anupama that she also has a right to Love You Zindagi Cafe, which makes her emotional.
