Anirudh even argues with Shrishti when she again blames Jhanak. He tells her if she cannot see Jhanak is battling with his life to survive and still finds her mistake.
The fact that Jhanak agreed to wed an old guy upsets Anirudh. Since Arshi, Shrishti and the other members of the Basu family wish to do so, Jhanak is ready to do so.
When Anirudh revealed that her pulse had been missing, everyone was taken aback. Tanuja was concerned that if there was a police case, they would be in trouble.
Anirudh was taken aback by Tanuja's questioning, and Arshi told him that she was the one who was impacted even though everyone had drunk the same drink.
Anirudh believes that he is favoring her so much that he would rather do everything for her so that Jhanak won't be held responsible and she is continuously insulting him.
Anirudh stopped her because he wanted to talk to her and requested to listen to him when she was about to leave. He comes to know that she promised to give Rumi and Bipasha sarees.
Choton told him that Anirudh's selflessness in helping Jhanak relates to a matter of life or death. If Jhanak refuses, Anirudh tells him to force her to agree, or else he tells her that Anirudh is being questioned by seniors about whether she will participate or not.
Jhanak was told by Anirudh about her advertising campaign. He claimed to be helping her to achieve a better life. Jhanak begged Anirudh not to follow her because he had a very attractive partner during their dispute.
