Anupamaa 20th August 2021 Written Episode
Anupama prepares laddus to celebrate 15th August Independence day. Samar walks in and munches laddu acting as in sleep. Anu says she will slap and wake him up and describes how they used to get 2 laddu in childhood on 15th August after their dance performance. Samar says he learnt dance in the greed of laddus then. Anu says whatever it is, they were excited for independence day from 1st August itself. She further says how parents keep away their children from the national festivals and not let them experience it completely. He prepares laddu unevenly. She laughs. He prepares it with 2 big spoons and says lazy people find a way out. She laughs more. Toshu watches her from behind and remembers insulting her. Anu notices him. Samar says its good that bhai stayed back with bhabhi tonight as bhabhi needed his emotional support. Anu hopes he stays back even tomorrow as its a holiday, let him not return to this house, he should return into everyone’s heart.
Kavya insists Vanraj to answer her question while he is asleep. He wakes up and says he is tired and let him sleep. She says he loves sleep and not wife, she wants to know how they celebrate independence day or else Baa will taunt her. He agrees and says let us make arrangements for tomorrow. She excitedly hugs him. He writhes in pain and says she is not light anymore like before. She says she is, maybe people are taking her lightly and not offering her job. He says he knows how it feels, every person has to go through this phase, being jobless is not a joke. She says money is important and being useful is more important than that, she likes enjoying Sundays but not everyday as Sunday. He says she can do household chores. She says she is not born for that as she has seen Anu working hard and its not her cup of tea. He consoles her that she will get a job soon. She thanks him.
Next morning, Anu walks out of house dressed as a Maharashtrian woman holding laddu thali, Vanraj and Kavya as a South Indian Man and a Muslim woman, Baa and Mamaji as Rajasthani woman and man, Pakhi as a Punjabi girl, Toshu as a Muslim man, Kinjal as a Bengali woman, Samar as a Punjabhi man, and Nandini as a Kashmiri girl. Hum India Wale.. song plays in the background. Baa looks at Kavya and says good girl, she then tells family that they will celebrate independence day first and Bhaila’s surprise happy birthday next. Mamaji jokes that Britishers left India after knowing that didi/Baa is going to be born soon. Family laughs. Anu searches her money and says she had brought it to give it to Anu. Pakhi asks her to relax as its just 100 rs. Anu says one who earns money knows the value of even 1 rs. Samar finds her 100 rs. Anu checks it and says its her money itself. Samar says mummy is cross checking it. Vanraj says Anu from the beginning checks serial number.
Rakhi walks in wearing a gown as a modern girl. Baa says today is independence day and not a fancy dress competition that she dressed like an angel. Mamaji jokes. Anu thanks her for coming and says she didn’t feel Rakhi would come. Rakhi says independence day is the only festival she celebrates. She asks Kinjal what did she and Toshu decide. Kinjal says let us discuss about it later. Samar asks Pakhi if she changed her DP with a national flag. She says yes. Samar says its for only 1 day as they are not soldiers to show patriotism at border. Anu says fighting at border is not only patriotism, benefitting the nation is also patriotism as nation is not just a land but them all; people complain that this country’s system is bad, but they are the system who spit pan on street, give bribe, fight with each other on the basis of religion; they talk about changing the nation, but don’t realize that they need to change themselves first. Toshu says he agrees, but their country is far far away from development. Anu says there will be a few defects in everyone. Baa says just like every mother is imperfect, but child loves her immensely. Vanraj gives his opinion next. Anu says they should work for the nation and take it on the path of success. Baa says let us celebrate independence day first.
Shah family hoists national flag and sing Vande Mataram song (what about national song?). While returning home, Baa says its good that flag hoisting finished on time, now children can show their dance performance. Whole Shah family dances on Humlogon Ko Samajh Sakho to Samjho Dilbar Jaani… song. After dance performance, Mamaji gets happy seeing cake and asks Baa its whose birthday today. Family at once say its his birthday and he is lucky that whole nation is celebrating his birthday. Bapuji sends him happy birthday message. Mamaji says even jijaji remembers his birthday. Vanraj reminds how Mamaji wrote his name on his birthday. Anu reminds how Mamaji forgot when she was newly married and thought her as thief. Mamaji says sorry. She says they are thankful to him instead. Kavya says she used to feel irritated with Vanraj’s love for family, but now realized its value. Anu asks Samar to check if loan amount is credited in account. He asks her to relax as they still have a whole day left.
Precap: Toshu apologizes and reconciles with his parents. Rakhi gets angry seeing that and offers job to Kavya with less work pressure and double salary and says let her see if Kavya will convince her husband or let this opportunity go.
