Hasmuk and Digvijay Push Anupama Towards the Finale

Hasmuk asks Anupama to get ready for the competition, but she refuses, saying God has snatched her dream. Hasmuk encourages her with a beautiful explanation — just as she offers prasad to God without tasting it, He is now taking her exam. He praises Anupama’s cooking skills, saying she has achieved perfection and trained her brain so well that she cannot make a mistake in adding sugar, salt or chilli. He asks her to start believing in herself. Digvijay adds that judges give difficult tasks in every round and questions whether Anupama will give up if they ask her to cook without tasting.

Pakhi Catches Paritosh Red-Handed
Paritosh counts money when Pakhi catches him. She confronts him and threatens to inform Anupama if he does not tell the truth. Paritosh confesses that Gautam asked him to give the packet to Anupama to eat, and he was clueless about what Gautam was planning. Pakhi worries if Gautam gave poison to Anupama, but Paritosh says Gautam cannot kill her and the doctor confirmed she is fine. Pakhi threatens Paritosh to share the money or she will tell the family, and he gives in.
They then spot Ishani and Prerna heading to the competition and worry that Anupama is back in it. Paritosh says if Anupama joins the grand finale, Gautam will demand his money back. Pakhi declares she will not return it, and Paritosh agrees.
The Grand Finale Begins Without Anupama

Gautam asks her to wait, saying Anupama and Digvijay are missing and will not return. The host reveals the trophy and money. Prem asks why the other team is not happy, while Rahi wonders where Anupama and Digvijay are. Gautam tells Vasundhara that an announcement of Anupama withdrawing from the competition is coming soon. Paritosh insists Anupama will not come, but Pakhi says Anupama does the unthinkable.
The host announces that Anupama and Digvijay are late. Prem worries if Vasundhara is behind it, but Rahi says Vasundhara cannot do anything and worries about them. Manpreet, Roy and the other judges declare that if Anupama does not arrive on time, she will be out of the competition. Prem says Anupama should be here as he wants to defeat her fairly.
