Chaos unfolds in the latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, shaking the family to its core. A massive stampede erupts, sending waves of panic through the crowd. Abhira, driven by instinct, rushes to Ruhi’s side, shielding her from the stampede’s force. Armaan, caught in the turmoil, focuses on protecting Vidya and Shivani while ensuring Daksh remains unharmed.
As fear grips everyone, family members rally together, forming a protective shield around Ruhi. The crowd’s unrest grows, and in the midst of it, Rohit notices Sanjay and Kaveri trapped. Without hesitation, he pushes through, dodging panicked people to reach them. Meanwhile, Shivani’s gaze lands on Manisha and Manoj, also caught in the chaos. Determined, she rushes to help, pulling them to safety.
Gradually, people escape the danger zone. Relief begins to settle in, but then Ruhi realizes something, Swarna and Manish are missing. A deep sense of dread fills her. She alerts Rohit and Armaan, who immediately turn back, bracing themselves for another search. Just then, Manish appears in a car, Swarna safe beside him. Without delay, they rush Ruhi and Daksh to the hospital. Inside the chaos, Shivani finds Rohit and Armaan, bringing much-needed news, Manish has already taken Ruhi away. The weight lifts slightly from their shoulders. Just as they prepare to leave, something unexpected happens. A loud explosion shakes the ground. The air fills with screams. A sudden cylinder blast sends shockwaves through the area. Horror washes over them.
The blast changes everything. The family rushes to the hospital, hearts pounding with fear. In the hospital Ruhi, still trembling, looks at Swarna and Manish, eyes filled with questions. “Where is Rohit?” she asks, worry evident in her voice. In an effort to calm her, Abhira tells her that he has gone to drop Abhir. But the truth is far worse. Rohit, Armaan, and Shivani are in critical condition.
At the hospital, tension grips everyone. Abhira finds Armaan, but the news that follows shatters her. Shivani couldn’t be saved. The words hit like a storm, leaving everyone speechless. Madhav’s composure crumbles. He sobs, unable to contain his grief. “She always lived alone,” Abhira says, voice heavy with sorrow. “And in the end, she died alone as well.” The weight of her words settles over them, thick and painful. The family, standing together yet feeling utterly lost, struggles to accept the loss.
The tragedy lingers. The hospital halls echo with silent prayers, desperate hope clinging to the air. They wait, praying Rohit and Armaan pull through. Shivani’s sacrifice is not forgotten. The family, though shattered, remains bound together in grief, their hearts burdened by loss but strengthened by love.
