Written update from Anupamaa, August 21: Anupama and Anuj discuss stress relief techniques. Anupama mentions that today's children use spinners, while Anuj recalls a magnetic spinner from the past. Anupama also talks about her childhood habit of spinning a pen, and Anuj agrees that even small things can matter.

Meanwhile, Meenu tells her friends how much she enjoys home-cooked food as compared to the outside food she eats due to the no-cooking rule at her home. Inspired by this, Anupama shares a new idea with Anuj.

Titu feels neglected and almost steps on a nail. Nandita intervenes and tells about her difficulties to give some perspective. Titu jokes that he should use her advice in his vlog and Nandita humorously asks for payment. Dimple, who is watching them, is jealous. Anupama shares her plan with the family and everyone supports it. She asks for their help and Babuji gives his approval. Anupama plans to start immediately and tells Anuj to prepare for a busy day. She gives Bala some money and predicts that the principal will regret not accepting her catering offer.

When Titu and Nandita return home, Dimple accuses Nandita of trying to attract her husband. Pakhi, who witnessed their conversation, supports Dimple's accusation. Titu tries to calm the situation, explaining that they were just talking. However, Dimple and Pakhi argue that their conversation was laughing, suggesting that Nandita's intentions were inappropriate. Nandita defends herself, asking if laughing is now considered a sin, while Pakhi criticizes her past relationships and lack of respect for marriage. Babuji intervenes, siding with Nandita and highlighting the flaws in Dimple and Pakhi's arguments.

Later, Bala and Babuji console Nandita, who prefers to keep her problems to herself. Anupama comes with vegetables and announces the start of preparations for the food stall. Babuji suggests playing a song to boost morale and Sagar agrees. Anuj accidentally hurts his hand and Anupama helps him. Meanwhile, Sagar, thinking about Meenu, watches Anupama unveil the food stall named after Choti Anu, hinting that they are still looking for her.

Vanraj comes and taunts Anupama and makes fun of her efforts at the food stall. He jokes that she should take her bowls and beg and mocks her for her previous successes with spices and chutneys. Baa also criticizes Anupama and questions her decision to set up the stall.

Pakhi asks if she is worried about the light this might cast on her family, but Anupama remains unfazed. She stands firm and declares that neither Vanraj's nor her friends' opinions will affect her, stressing that her work is a tribute to hard work and dedication.
