Anupamaa’s speech opens the episode. Anupamaa claims that Anuj, without whom she would not have arrived here, her friend Devika, without whom she would not have left the house, and her Bapuji, who always encouraged her, all deserve applause. Anupamaa claims to have read in a Shayari that a true guy respects a lady. Anuj encourages them and says, “Let’s get started.” According to Anuj, they need to make the contestants feel at ease by supporting them. Hearing them, Anuj says they’ll find Nandini and goes, leaving Samar to handle the competition. Anupamaa contacts Vanraj, who is on the phone with a grocery seller, and he disconnects the conversation, promising to call her again. Anuj consoles him by relating his own experience of losing his love and promising that he and his entire family are with him and would find Nandini at whatever costs.

The competition has come to a close. Anupamaa is asked by Bapuji to summon Anuj to judge the contestants. Anupamaa claims he went out since he had some vital work. Anupamaa agrees and believes that in Anuj’s absence, she should evaluate the competition on her own. Anuj assures Samar that his men are on the lookout for Nandini.

Kavya discovers Rohan’s name is still on her friend list at home. Nandini’s ex, says Anupamaa as she walks in. Anupamaa says she’ll explain it later and goes on to tell the entire storey. Let’s talk about it later, Bapuji says and first find Nandini. Vanraj dials Samar’s number, but Anuj answers and informs him that they are still looking for Nandini. Vanraj becomes enraged and claims that he is not required to leave because Samar has found another father figure. Anupamaa claims she has previously instructed him to be there for Nandini and Samar anytime they need him. Kinjal expresses gratitude to God and claims that Anuj is a lovely guy who brought Samar home and now Nandini. Nandini claims Rohan doesn’t get it, so she came up with this plan. Nandini claims Rohan attempted to kidnap her in his car, but she escaped and collapsed on the road.

Vanraj yells at Anupamaa, accusing her of causing the issue and claiming that if she had informed him sooner, the children would not be in this scenario. Anupamaa says she tried to inform him today. Samar says he and Nandini had stopped mummy from informing him. Anuj says it’s not Samar’s mistake. Nandini says it’s her mistake that she didn’t inform the family about Rohan fearing their reaction, especially Baa’s.
