The episode begins with Anupama asking what Aadhya has done. Baa says Aadhya was selling sarees in the market. Dolly adds that the neighbors even recorded her video. She shows everyone the clip. In the video, the neighbors recognize Aadhya as Anupama’s daughter and make fun of her while recording. Aadhya remembers she needed to sell sarees to buy her costume and jewelry for the competition. (Flashback ends.) Baa says Aadhya sold sarees at a discount but damaged their family’s respect for free. Aadhya questions how her work is linked to their respect. Baa replies that since Aadhya is staying at Krishnakunj, their respect is connected. Aadhya says if anyone asks about Krishnakunj, people will say, “Follow the noise, and you will reach there.” Everyone feels insulted and tells Anupama to send Aadhya back and question why she even brought her there.
Anupama tells them to stop. Aadhya says when they fight at home, their respect is not lost, but when she works hard to earn money, it becomes a problem. She says she sold sarees to manage her own needs because everyone else has support, but she has no one. Anupama feels emotional. Baa scolds Aadhya for being rude. Aadhya says this isn’t her fault and prays to God, applying tilak to herself and taking an apple as Prasad. She refuses to take Anupama’s blessings and says she will win by God’s blessings. Later, Baa gives lucky flowers to Ansh, Ishu, and Pari, asking them to keep it for good luck, but when Mahi comes, Baa says the flowers are finished. Anupama says blessings should be given to all, but Baa ignores her. Aadhya feels angry but controls herself, while Mahi feels hurt and walks away.
Everyone reaches the competition venue with their families. Pari says there are a lot of people. Kinjal says only a few will have real talent. Toshu encourages Pari, while Pakhi supports Ishu. Baa wishes for Ansh, Pari, and Ishu to win, but not anyone else. Dolly says she forgot to wish them luck. Anupama notices Mahi looking upset and tells her not to think about others’ words but to use her pain as motivation to give her best. Mahi hugs her. Anupama calls Mahi her best daughter. Mahi searches for Prem, while Anupama looks for Aadhya. Aadhya prays to Kanha ji for help to win and return to Dwarka. Prem teases her and says he has already prayed. They argue over who will win, and Aadhya says her Kanha will make her win. Prem jokes that she’ll lose and stay at Krishnakunj. Their friendly banter continues, and Aadhya’s dupatta gets caught in Prem’s watch. He smiles and frees it.
Everyone gets ready for the competition. Anupama helps Mahi, Pakhi helps Ishu, and Kinjal helps Pari get dressed. Toshu cheers for Ansh. Prem also joins. Anupama smiles seeing them. Aadhya also gets ready. Just then, an announcement is made asking all parents to leave the green room, and only participants are allowed inside. Baa reminds the kids to keep the lucky flowers with them. Pakhi wishes Ishu good luck. Before leaving, Anupama showers mogra flowers over Aadhya from behind. Aadhya smells the flowers and looks around. Anupama remembers Anuj and wishes everyone good luck. The kids declare that they will win and head to the stage.
The competition officially begins. The Anchor announces that many participants from all over Gujarat are here. He introduces the first judge, singer Parul Gandhi, and the second judge, famous Gujarati film and theatre actor, Ketan Gada. Ishu finds Parul boring, and another girl says Ketan Gada is very strict. The Anchor adds that a special guest and honorary judge is joining, someone who made Gujarat proud internationally – Anupama Joshi. Dolly, Baa, and others are shocked. Ishu says Anupama didn’t even tell them she would be a judge. Baa worries that Anupama will be partial to her children. Toshu thinks Anupama will favor her daughter.
Anupama greets the audience. Kids like Ansh and Prem feel happy. Aadhya looks upset. The Anchor praises Anupama, saying she initially refused to judge because her kids are participating, showing her honesty. Anupama speaks about respecting art, warning that ego and jealousy ruin talent. She says one should pray for their own victory, not others’ defeat. She encourages everyone to compete with talent and good character. She wishes all the kids the best of luck. The Anchor asks her to perform a dance to start the event. At first, Anupama refuses, but the kids cheer for her, and she agrees.
Anupama performs gracefully to the song “Chal Wahin Chale.” During the dance, she remembers emotional moments, including Aadhya’s hurtful words. She ends the dance, hoping her family does not lose hope no matter who wins. Aadhya thinks that Anupama will give her fewer marks to make her lose, so she decides to perform so well that even the other two judges will give her good marks.
The Anchor starts calling participants. First, Krish comes on stage and performs an act balancing on a bicycle wheel. Then, Ishani Shah is called next. She models and then dances to the popular song “Lucky Boy.” Pakhi records her dance on Dolly’s phone to upload it online. Everyone claps, but Baa criticizes the song choice. Pakhi says it’s a trending song. Kinjal says the performance wasn’t that good.
Next, the Anchor calls Pari Shah. Pari drapes her dupatta around a model creatively and dances to the song “Jalwa.” The judges look impressed. Toshu says this is real talent. Kinjal says talent isn’t just dancing, while Pakhi calls it a waste of time. Anupama feels happy seeing strong competition among the participants.
