The latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, unfolded against the backdrop of a joyous occasion. The entire family had gathered to celebrate the baby shower ceremony, filling the house with warmth, rituals, and laughter.
As the rituals proceeded, Kaveri, extended a sweet to Ruhi. What should have been a moment of love turned uncomfortable in an instant. Armaan, ever vigilant about Ruhi’s health, immediately intervened. Without a second thought, he stopped Kaveri from feeding the sweet to Ruhi in front of everyone, asking the staff to bring sugar-free alternatives. Though his intentions were rooted in care, the timing and public setting left Kaveri deeply embarrassed.
Ruhi, already exhausted by Armaan’s increasingly possessive ways, took this latest incident to heart. Unable to hide her growing frustration, she chose to eat the sweet anyway, justifying it as a gesture for the baby. But it wasn’t about the sweet. It was about her agency, her choices, and the space she felt slipping away within Armaan’s suffocating concern.
Later, unable to bottle up her emotions, Ruhi turned to Abhira for comfort. Sharing her restlessness, she confided that she was desperate to return to the Goenka house. She admitted that Armaan’s overbearing nature had reached a point where she could no longer bear it.
Abhira, ever the peacemaker, decided to intervene. She approached Armaan with Ruhi’s request, hoping to reason with him. But Armaan stood firm. He made it clear that Ruhi was not leaving. No matter what Abhira said, he wasn’t ready to let her walk out of the house.
As night fell, the atmosphere inside the house remained heavy. Unable to withstand the weight of her frustrations any longer, Ruhi quietly packed her things and tried to leave unnoticed. But fate wasn’t on her side. Armaan caught her at the doorstep. Sternly, he ordered her to go back to her room and rest, leaving no space for further conversation.
The next morning only brought fresh complications. As the family began their day, they realized both Ruhi and Daksh were missing. Panic set in immediately. Armaan and Abhira tried reaching out to the Goenka house for answers. Manish answered their call and confirmed that Ruhi was indeed there.
Without wasting a moment, Armaan rushed over to the Goenka house. Armaan, anger evident in his voice, scolded Ruhi for leaving without informing anyone. But this time, Ruhi was in no mood to back down. Looking him in the eye, she declared she wasn’t returning.
As the episode closed, viewers were left with questions. Would Armaan realize the consequences of his actions? The coming days promised answers, but for now, the air remained heavy with unresolved emotions and unfinished battles.
