The latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kahlata Hai begins with a celebratory mood as everyone gathers to welcome the new year. Manisha playfully wishes Armaan, lightening the atmosphere. Meanwhile, Rohit enters with Daksh, and exchanged warm greetings with everyone. Amidst the cheerful moments, Abhira makes a sudden arrival with a delighted expression. Dadi notices her and immediately asks Armaan about her presence.
Abhira announces she has come to reveal her answer. She respectfully greets Vidya, but her demeanor shifts when her eyes land on Vidya’s anklet. Her focus sharpens, and she bends to examine it closely. Vidya looks confused and asks what she is doing. Tears stream down Abhira’s face as she confronts Vidya, questioning if it was her car involved in Abhir’s accident. Madhav appears uneasy, and the rest of the family exchanges puzzled glances.
Abhira grows insistent, urging Vidya to speak the truth. Armaan steps in, pulling Abhira back, urging her to stop blaming Vidya. Vidya stumbles, and Dadi quickly supports her. Still, Abhira persists, demanding Vidya admit her role in the accident. Armaan, confused and agitated, asks what truth Abhira is referring to. Dadi, in a stern tone, orders Abhira to leave, but she refuses, declaring her right to seek justice for her brother. She accuses Vidya of leaving Abhir injured on the road, ignoring his cries for help. Vidya breaks down under the weight of the accusations.
Trembling, Vidya admits to the truth. She tearfully confesses that her car had hit Abhir’s bike, but insists it wasn’t intentional. She pleads for forgiveness and asks the family not to involve the police. Her emotional confession shocks everyone present. Just then, Manish enters and overhears the entire revelation. Anger flashes across his face as he declares that every crime deserves punishment. He sternly addresses Vidya, holding her accountable for her actions. The tension escalates as Vidya collapses from the stress, prompting Madhav to call for medical assistance. But Manish was determined to call police as Dadi asked him to consider Vidya’s health.
As a doctor attends to Vidya, she advises the family to ensure Vidya avoids stress. Madhav, visibly distraught, finds solace in Dadi’s comforting presence. Armaan stands silent, his worry evident. Meanwhile, Abhira and Manish return home to find Abhir consumed by frustration. His music, he says, is his only way to cope, but he found his reality shattered as he can’t practice. Swarna and Surekha do their best to console him, but their efforts fall short.
When Vidya regains consciousness, she shares her side of the story with Armaan. With tears in her eyes, she recounts how fear overwhelmed her when the accident happened. She explains that Abhir’s helmet obscured his identity, and the sound of approaching police sirens made her panic and flee. She insists she had intended to help and even went to the concert to send help through Armaan, but fate had other plans. Armaan listens intently but remains conflicted.
Back home, Abhir lashes out, throwing objects in anger, declaring that he cannot find peace until the person responsible for his pain is brought to justice. Abhira reveals Vidya’s confession to Abhir, leaving everyone stunned.
The truth, now exposed, shakes the family to its core as they grapple with the consequences of Vidya’s actions and the pain inflicted on Abhir. The night leaves behind questions of justice, forgiveness, and the complexities of human emotions.
