Kaveri and Abhira building bond to bring more shock in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai

Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Armaan approaches Abhira, who is hiding inside the cupboard. Abhira tells Armaan to give her some space. Armaan insists that he cannot withdraw his support for her. Overwhelmed with emotion, Abhira reveals that her tears are uncontrollable, prompting Armaan to join her in her sorrow. 

Meanwhile, Ruhi searches for Manish, and when Rohit calls to inquire about Manish's delay, Manish suspects he wasn't invited by Sanjay, leaving Rohit perplexed. Rohit covers up the situation, telling Ruhi that the Goenkas are running late due to Swarna's illness, which worries her.

Kaveri encourages the Poddars to take group photos while Charu waits for Abhira and Armaan to arrive. Mala observes that Abhira and Armaan often seem absent, while Manisha comments on their romantic nature and tendency to seek solitude. Charu resolves to continue waiting for them.

Armaan and Abhira's dance:

Krish unexpectedly arrives and brings Armaan and Abhira together for a dance dedicated to Charu. After their performance, the doctor reaches out to Abhira to confirm her upcoming appointment, which is scheduled for the next day at 9 am, and Armaan reassures the doctor that Abhira will attend the operation. Abhira becomes emotional as she reflects on her baby.

In another scene, Manish, Swarna, and Surekha discuss the couple while Armaan reminds Abhira to gather her medical reports. After she steps out, Swarna proposes taking Armaan and Abhira on a vacation. Manish invites Armaan to join, but he declines, prompting Manish to suspect that Armaan and Abhira are concealing something important.

Kaveri addresses Abhira by name:

Charu presents Abhira with a gift that Mala had brought, shocking Abhira when she sees Lado Gopal. Ruhi, curious about the gift, mistakenly asks Abhira if she is expecting a child, leaving Abhira stunned. Charu reprimands Ruhi for her thoughtless question, given Abhira's situation. Ruhi shares her suspicions with Rohit that Abhira and Armaan are hiding something significant, but he advises her against taking tension and concentrating on her pregnancy.

As Abhira ponders her impending operation, Armaan offers to accompany her to the hospital, but she insists on being left alone. Despite his desire to support her, Abhira expresses her need for solitude. 

Later, Abhira arrives at the Poddar house, drawing the attention of Vidya, Manisha, and Kajol, who quickly follow her to Kaveri's room. Once there, Kaveri inquires about the issues troubling Abhira and Armaan. Abhira reassures her that everything is fine between them and expresses her desire for Kaveri's blessings.

As she prepares to leave, Abhira asks for Kaveri’s blessings. When Kaveri questions her about any hearings for her cases that day, Abhira, hiding her pregnancy, claims she simply hopes to lose her most significant case, revealing her diminished courage. This surprises Kaveri.

Just before departing, Kaveri addresses Abhira by her name for the first time, which brings a bright smile to Abhira's face. In a touching moment, Kaveri manages to lift herself from the wheelchair, filling Abhira with happiness. Abhira expresses how Kaveri has given her two reasons to celebrate: being called by her name and standing after so many days. Abhira gently reminds Kaveri to take care of herself.

Abhira responds that it’s more than enough and she doesn’t need anything else. Kaveri insists that Abhira deserves more. Then, Kaveri wraps her arms around Abhira in a warm embrace, lifting her spirits and showering her with love.
