Anupama 14th April 2024: Anupama faces tough competition

Anupama and the others gather for a puja, with Babu ji asking Anupama to play the shank. Baa remarks that she’s preparing for a new battle. Anupama plays the shank as instructed. Later, Baa instructs everyone to pack their bags without leaving anything behind once they reach Ahmedabad.

She notices Anupama reading while eating and advises her against doing so. Meanwhile, Pakhi announces her plan to go to the parlor, prompting Anupama to inquire about her destination. Pakhi brushes off the question and heads out, with Vanraj asking Toshu to drop her. Pakhi clarifies that she’s going to Kinjal’s friend’s parlor.

Ishani arrives and calls out to Pakhi, who is annoyed by being called from behind. Ishani mentions that she needs to look presentable. Dimpy comments that she just woke up, while Kavya advises against making the kids self-conscious about their appearance. Ishani asks Pakhi to accompany her, mentioning that she feels cold.

Anupama checks on Ishani and notices she has a fever. Pakhi directs Ishani to take medicine and rest, telling her not to bother her. Anupama reminds Pakhi of how she used to stay up all night when Pakhi was sick, contrasting her current behavior.

Pakhi defends herself, stating that she’s not that kind of parent. Anupama emphasizes the importance of a mother’s care when a child is unwell, suggesting that if one fails in that aspect, they aren’t fit to be called a mother, especially if they’ve kept the child away from their father.

Vanraj comments on Pakhi’s emotional depth, and she accuses her family of hindering her aspirations. Babu ji intervenes and instructs Anupama to leave. As Anupama departs, Kavya, Dimpy, and the others wish her luck.

Meanwhile, Anuj is approached by Aadhya, who apologizes to him with a song and asks for forgiveness. Anuj requests them to trust him and not force him to confront his sorrows. He emphasizes that if they think he’s asked for too much, they should let it go.

At the cooking competition, the judges announce the rules for the second round, stating that two contestants will be eliminated, and contestants will have limited ingredients and time. Anuj receives a message to meet Hitachi Wang at the MG studio on someone’s behalf.

Hitachi instructs the contestants to prepare a dish with the limited ingredients. Anupama faces a challenge as she struggles to open a ghee can with one hand. She recalls Baa’s advice and decides to use almond paste instead.

With the competition heating up, Anuj notices Anupama’s predicament and offers to help. He opens the ghee can for her, allowing her to continue with her dish. However, as the time runs out, Anupama accidentally spills the ghee, leading to a tense moment with the judges. Despite the setback, Anupama presents her dish, Mohan Thaal, explaining its significance. However, the judges criticize her for not speaking in English, leaving Anupama disheartened.

Pakhi meets Aarush in a hotel room, where he reveals that he booked it for privacy while his parents were away in India. Pakhi shows him jewelry, explaining that she has already given him all her money. Aarush agrees to lend her money and offers her champagne.

Back at the cooking competition, all contestants present their dishes. When it’s Anupama’s turn, she introduces her dish, Mohan Thaal, as a favorite of Lord Krishna, known as Mohan. Keith, one of the judges, demands she explain in English, but Anupama struggles. Despite her efforts, the judges criticize her lack of fluency in English.

As the day progresses, Anuj receives a mysterious message asking him to meet Hitachi Wang at the MG studio. At the studio, he hesitates but ultimately follows the instructions. Meanwhile, back at the competition, Anupama faces a difficult moment when she accidentally drops the ghee, a crucial ingredient for her dish. Despite this setback, she maintains her composure and completes the task.

The competition intensifies as the judges announce that only a few contestants will proceed to the next round. Anupama’s fate hangs in the balance as she waits for the judges’ decision, hoping her efforts will be enough to secure her place in the competition.
