The latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kahlata Hai begins with Manoj accusing Abhir of flirting with both Kiara and Charu. Abhir realizes he had mistakenly been chatting with Kiara instead of Charu. He clarifies the misunderstanding, but Sanjay accuses him of lying. In response, Abhir openly confesses his love for Charu. This declaration enrages Kaveri, who refuses to accept his choice. Manish attempts to calm Kaveri, but she remains adamant. She warns that if Abhir doesn’t change his decision, she will not forgive him.
Meanwhile, Kiara grows anxious, fearing the Poddar family might create trouble at Abhir’s house. Armaan reassures her, insisting that Abhir is mature enough to handle the situation. Kiara remains skeptical but tries to stay composed. Abhir, determined to stand by his feelings, announces his intention to marry Charu. This further fuels Kaveri’s anger, leaving everyone on edge.
Abhira confronts Abhir about the confusion. Abhir explains everything, showing Charu’s picture to clarify his love for her. Abhira advises him to resolve the situation quickly to avoid more hurt feelings. At the same time, Kiara, worried about how things are unfolding, fears that the Poddars may have insulted Abhir. However, when Abhir tells Kiara that he loves Charu, she is stunned. Refusing to hear more, Kiara abruptly ends the call, leaving Abhir feeling uneasy. He becomes more concerned, realizing that someone’s heart is bound to break.
Charu returns home, deeply upset, and finds Kiara dressed exactly like her. Surprised, Charu questions Kiara about copying her appearance. Kiara confronts her, demanding to know why Abhir loves her and not Kiara. Although Charu tries to pacify her, Kiara becomes increasingly agitated. Manisha informs Kaveri about Kiara’s distress. Kaveri insists that both Charu and Kiara need to move on from Abhir, believing neither should marry him. Vidya supports this idea, emphasizing that neither woman deserves the pain of such a complicated situation.
Elsewhere, RK is lost in thought about Abhira. His brother teases him, asking if he has feelings for someone. RK denies the idea, claiming he could never fall in love. Despite his denial, his distracted demeanor suggests otherwise.
Abhir reaches out to Charu again, expressing his love for her with sincerity. Charu, however, remains preoccupied with thoughts of Kiara and her emotional turmoil. Abhira feels that the situation is becoming too messy and suggests Armaan should intervene. Armaan, however, suspects that Abhira herself has feelings for RK. He decides it would be better if she speaks to him directly.
Armaan asked Krish to keep an eye on Kiara while he meets with Abhira. Despite her best efforts, Charu fails to comfort Kiara, who continues to avoid her. This leaves Charu feeling even more disheartened. On the other hand, Abhira forgets to inform Armaan that she is waiting for him at their special meeting spot. Both Armaan and Abhira miss each other and mistakenly assume the other is upset, deepening the emotional confusion surrounding everyone.
The episode ends with unresolved tensions and a cloud of uncertainty hanging over the relationships. As Abhir stands by his love for Charu, both Kiara and Charu grapple with their feelings, and the rest of the characters are left navigating the tangled emotions in their own ways.
