The latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, unfolded a series of emotionally charged moments and tense confrontations. The story opened with Abhira trying to connect with Armaan through repeated phone calls. However, Ruhi deliberately kept cutting the calls, making sure no conversation could happen between them.
Armaan, completely unaware, was busy with Daksh at a toy shop. Amid the casual outing, an unexpected moment of affection emerged when Daksh called Armaan “Papa” for the first time. This heartfelt moment caught Abhira’s eye from a distance. She witnessed the bond forming between them and felt overwhelmed by the innocence of the moment.
Determined to speak to Armaan, Abhira finally found a chance. She informed him that the police had visited the office, asking about Krish. The news shook Armaan, and without wasting time, the two rushed home. What awaited them there was even more unsettling. They found Krish sneaking out of the house, apparently planning to escape to London. Armaan acted swiftly, stopping Krish and confronting him alongside Sanjay. Tension filled the air as Charu gathered the rest of the family in the living room.
In front of everyone, Armaan exposed the situation. He revealed that Krish had been framed in a drug case. The actual culprits were his friends who had been dealing drugs, leaving Krish wrongly accused. But Krish confessed he feared going to the police station to give his statement. It was then revealed that Sanjay had encouraged him to flee quietly to avoid trouble.
Kaajal, unable to stay silent, questioned Krish if he had been consuming drugs. Sanjay defended Krish, clarifying that he hadn’t. Armaan remained determined to clear Krish’s name and insisted on taking him to the police. In a sudden burst of anger and frustration, Krish pushed Armaan aside. Everyone stood in stunned silence as Krish stormed off to his room, leaving a heavy, unsettling silence behind.
Elsewhere, trouble was brewing in another corner. Kiara was seen in a car with Samrat, engaged in conversation. Things took a sharp turn when Samrat, advantage, tried to grab her hand and pull her into a hug. In an unexpected turn, Abhir arrived at that very moment. Witnessing the scene, he lost his temper and attacked Samrat.
Amid the confrontation, Samrat suddenly revealed that Kiara had paid him to do this. His words left Abhir stunned. Kiara, no longer able to hold it in, confessed the truth. She revealed that she had discovered Abhir’s secret relationship with Charu. In an emotionally charged move, she dragged Abhir to the Poddar house to confront Charu directly.
Charu was taken aback by their sudden arrival. Kiara then shared her story, but cleverly disguised it as a friend’s experience. She spoke about a woman who was deceived by a man married to someone else, carrying on an affair in secret. The story struck a nerve with both Charu and Abhir, making them realize the hurt they had caused.
Back at home, Kaveri reminded Krish of the importance of respect within a family. She told him firmly to apologize to Armaan for his behavior. Night descended on the house, but the storm hadn’t fully settled. Armaan, emotionally exhausted, found solitude in the dome, reflecting on the turbulent day. The image of Daksh calling him “Papa” and Krish’s rejection weighed heavily on his mind.
Ruhi approached him with a tissue box, hoping to comfort him. But Armaan, not ready for company, asked her to leave. A short while later, Abhira arrived silently. Without words, Armaan broke down in her arms. The two shared a quiet, tender embrace. From a distance, Ruhi watched the scene unfold, unable to conceal the jealousy rising within her.
