The episode of Anupama on 17th January 2026 opens with high-voltage family drama at the Shah house. The scene is set with Anupama in a state of frantic urgency, determined to rush to Mumbai to save her beloved Purvichaya chawl and stand by the residents. However, she faces immediate resistance from within her own family. Leela (Baa) and Ansh are dead set against her leaving, fearing for her safety and the stability of the house.
The main conflict ignites when Leela takes an extreme step to stop Anupama. In a dramatic display of emotional blackmail, Leela lies down on the floor, declaring that Anupama will have to walk over her "dead body" if she wants to leave. This leaves Anupama in a painful dilemma, caught between her duty to her neighbors and her respect for her elders. Just when the situation seems impossible, Hasmukh (Bapuji) intervenes with a bold counter-threat, telling Leela that if she stops Anupama, she will have to see his dead body instead. This powerful moment finally breaks the deadlock, and with Kinjal and Ansh promising to look after Prarthana, Anupama sets off with Pari and Ishani.
The journey itself is filled with obstacles. Unable to find a vehicle, Anupama is relieved when Prem and Rahi arrive to pick them up, having heard the news of the demolition from Ansh. However, the car ride is far from peaceful. Rahi is visibly furious and doesn't hold back her words. She harshly criticizes Anupama for her "blind trust" in Rajni, reminding her that she had warned her about this woman's true nature. While Prem tries to play the peacemaker, the tension between mother and daughter is palpable, with Rahi's biting taunts leaving Anupama deeply stressed and reflective.
Meanwhile, the villainous plot moves forward rapidly. Parag heads toward the chawl to oversee the demolition, and Gautam and Maahi are seen plotting to seize control of the entire Kothari empire. The real shock comes when Rajni meets with the builder. Instead of helping the residents, she participates in a ritual ceremony to kick off the destruction of the very homes she promised to protect.
As they finally reach Mumbai, Anupama shows her leadership by sending the youngsters-Prem, Rahi, Pari, and Ishani-ahead to the chawl to provide moral support to the terrified residents. Anupama herself goes to confront Rajni at her residence. However, she is stopped at the gate by a watchman who refuses to let her in. This moment of exclusion hits Anupama hard, as she finally begins to piece together the horrifying possibility that Rajni has betrayed her trust and used her signature on the NOC papers to authorize the demolition.
The episode closes with a glimmer of hope as the chawl residents feel a surge of courage knowing Anupama has arrived in the city. However, the shadow of the bulldozer looms large. Viewers are left wondering if Anupama's presence will be enough to stop the heavy machinery and how she will undo the damage caused by her own misplaced trust.
