The latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kahlata Hai opens with Shivani expressing a heartfelt wish, stating that every mother hopes for her son’s happiness. She urges Abhira to consider motherhood, leaving her in deep thought. Shivani questions if fear holds her back from bringing a child into the world, emphasizing the beauty of being a mother. Lost in memories, Abhira recalls Daksh and becomes emotional.
Abhir encounters Charu and, upon realizing the truth, sincerely apologizes. Charu reminisces about Kiara and tells him that while their connection remains strong, they must find happiness separately. This revelation leaves Abhir devastated.
Both Abhira and Abhir reminisce about Akshara, sharing their grief and longing for her presence. Meanwhile, Shivani diligently prepares for the puja. Armaan, concerned about her health, warns against fasting. However, she dismisses his worries, assuring him that skipping medicine for a day will not have any dire consequences.
Manisha, eager to capture moments, asks Aryan to take pictures. However, Aryan advises her to prioritize the puja first. Manisha confesses that she no longer believes in time constraints and wants to cherish moments with her children. Krish suggests Kaveri take a picture with the children, but Madhav dismisses the idea, calling it unnecessary. Ruhi, burdened by guilt, regrets her past actions against Abhira and Daksh. Rohit consoles her, telling her not to dwell on the past.
Vidya anxiously waits for Armaan, hoping he will arrive. Rohit reassures her, confident in Armaan’s arrival. Meanwhile, Abhir prevents Swarna from fasting. Manish, observing the situation, remarks that the younger generation fails to recognize their parents’ sacrifices. He points out that while Swarna fasts for Abhir’s well-being, he disregards her effort. Abhir counters, asserting that Swarna’s health should not be compromised, though she remains eager to complete the fast for him.
Abhira, overwhelmed with emotions, recalls BSP and Daksh. Determined, she decides to fast for both, with Armaan supporting her choice. As the Poddars begin the rituals, Vidya continues to wait, her hopes unwavering. Rohit reassures her once again, certain that Armaan will arrive.
Accompanied by Shivani and Armaan, Abhira visits the temple. Encouraging him, she tells Armaan to face Vidya with courage. Armaan, concerned, asks if she will be at ease around Daksh and the children. She reassures him, saying there is no need to worry.
Vidya’s patience is rewarded when she finally sees Armaan. Her face lights up with joy. Meanwhile, Abhira catches sight of Daksh. Ruhi, upon learning of Abhira’s fast for Daksh, feels immense guilt. Abhira, in a heartfelt moment, expresses her affection for Daksh.
Elsewhere, Kiara requests Charu’s help in fixing her sari, but Charu, still distant, ignores her. Abhir steps in, assisting Kiara while Kajal watches, feeling sympathy for Charu. The atmosphere shifts when Kaveri notices Abhira with Daksh. Her expression hardens, and anger flashes in her eyes as she takes in the scene before her.
