Tonight’s episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai unfolded with emotions running high and the weight of the past refusing to stay buried. It began with Dadi Sa visiting the local cultural fair. In a crowded moment, her eyes fell on someone she wasn’t prepared to see, Armaan. The sight of him after so long left her shaken. She rushed home, carrying a storm of old wounds within her heart.
Once back, another unexpected blow awaited. A framed photograph of Armaan inside the house caught her eye, reopening memories she had fought hard to suppress. The sorrow of watching Abhira’s heart shatter resurfaced, and in silence, Dadi Sa made herself a promise. No matter what, she wouldn’t let Armaan cross paths with Abhira again.
Meanwhile, at the Poddar house, Anshuman stopped by for what seemed like a casual visit. But destiny led him somewhere unintended. A room, long locked and forgotten, stood ajar. It was Abhira and Armaan’s old room. Dust covered forgotten belongings and faded memories lingered in the air. While absent-mindedly looking around, his gaze landed on a drawer left half-open. Inside, an old Poddar business card with Abhira’s name printed as a senior associate rested untouched. The discovery startled him.
In that instant, Anshuman realized the depth of Abhira’s connection to the family wasn’t only personal but professional too. His heart softened with understanding, seeing her pain through a new lens. Without revealing his discovery, he made a decision to visit her.
He reached Abhira’s home under the pretense of craving her home-cooked food. As she greeted him with a polite smile, he noticed the sadness lurking behind her eyes. They gathered for lunch along with Dadi Sa and Vidya. During the meal, Anshuman shared some good news, hoping to lift the gloom. He informed them that their saree business was flourishing and new orders had begun to flood in. The room brightened momentarily with the promise of better days.
Once Anshuman left, Vidya decided it was time to confront what had long been avoided. She directly questioned Kaveri in front of Abhira. Vidya accused her of trying to pair Abhira with Anshuman. Kaveri did not deny it. She argued that if Armaan had moved ahead in life, Abhira had every right to do the same.
Kaveri then urged Abhira to end the lingering pain. She asked her to sign the divorce papers and free herself from the weight of old heartbreaks. Abhira, struggling to hold back tears, asked a question that cut through the room’s heavy air. She wanted to know if Kaveri had met Armaan’s. For a moment, silence hung before Kaveri finally admitted that she had seen Armaan at the fair.
Even as these revelations surfaced, fate had a cruel turn planned. Armaan, along with Geetanjali and little Maira, met with a horrific crash while returning from the same fair.
What comes next will leave everyone’s lives forever altered.
