Ruhi slaps Rohit after facing his accusations in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai

In tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode, Armaan (Rohit Purohit)  feels deep regret over making this significant mistake for the first time in his life. Abhira (Samridhii Shukla) consoles him, sensing his loneliness, and reassures him that they will gradually win Rohit (Romit Raj) over. Meanwhile, Ruhi (Garvita Sadhwani) admits to Rohit that she never intended to keep the truth from him. Rohit, feeling betrayed, confronts Ruhi about her involvement with Armaan despite their marriage. Ruhi defends herself, arguing that she genuinely wanted to move forward with Rohit, but he left her. Rohit accuses her of marrying him just to stay close to Armaan, prompting Ruhi to slap him.

Abhira resolves to persuade Rohit. Ruhi apologises to Rohit, but he dismisses her apology, claiming the list of grievances is long. Ruhi decides to leave, but when her stole catches fire, Rohit helps her. Ruhi becomes emotional, but Rohit remains firm, stating he would have helped anyone in her situation and will not be swayed by her tears.

Sanjay plots against Armaan:

Madhav and Vidya have a heated argument; Madhav criticises Vidya for not supporting Armaan, while Vidya is frustrated with always hurting their son. Madhav urges Vidya to help bridge the gap between Armaan and Rohit. Meanwhile, Sanjay plots to use Rohit to oust Armaan from the Poddar firm, suggesting Kaveri should put him in charge.

To lift Armaan's spirits, Abhira dresses in a teddy costume. Their interaction turns romantic, with Armaan expressing his desire to share a bedroom. Abhira blushes but then playfully bursts his bubble.

Elsewhere, Ruhi breaks down in tears as Rohit observes her. He notices Abhira and Armaan together and feels wronged that Armaan is enjoying life with Abhira while his own life is in ruins. Ruhi also sees them together, and Abhira is taken aback. Abhira confronts Vidya and Madhav for not standing up for Armaan, but Vidya argues that Rohit is more deeply hurt. Ruhi tries to give Rohit his medicine, but he questions her intentions, leaving Ruhi devastated.
