Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Abhir tells Akshara he doesn't want Akshara's baby, Akshara loses her calm

The episode commences with Manjiri expressing her concerns to Akshu. She mentions that Akshu already has her past memories, making it difficult for something new to happen. She advises Akshu to consider the potential of improving three lives instead of just one. Akshu appreciates Manjiri's input but asserts her right to make decisions about her life. Manjiri respects her choice and encourages her to think it over.

Meanwhile, Manish and Suwarna inquire about Manjiri's conversation with Akshu, to which she replies that she has spoken to her and leaves. Akshu ponders Manjiri's words and starts feeling anxious, especially about Abhinav. As her anxiety mounts, she exits the car to catch her breath and continues walking.

In a harrowing moment, a ladder suddenly falls toward Akshu, but Abhi intervenes just in time, preventing a potential disaster. He reassures her and checks her well-being. Concerned, he asks if she feels nauseous and suggests going to the hospital. Akshu declines the offer and expresses her confusion about whether she's moving forward or not. Abhi reassures her and they continue on their way.

As the school bell rings, Abhir and Ruhi emerge from school. Abhir questions why Akshu is there, considering the doctor's advice to rest. Akshu apologizes, and Abhi advises her to eat almonds and drink milk to stay strong. He wants to support his younger sister's health. He meets the Goenka family and wonders what might be bothering Akshu, possibly due to something someone told her.

Muskaan enters the scene and shocks everyone by mentioning "abortion," revealing that she overheard Manjiri and Akshu's conversation. The family is left in disbelief and shock.

Back at home, Manjiri appears distressed, prompting Mahima to ask what's bothering her. Abhi confronts Manjiri about her apparent stance on preventing Abhinav and Akshu's child from coming into the world. The family is taken aback, with Manish insisting that the decision should be left to Akshu. Manjiri defends her position, citing her experience and the potential consequences of emotional decisions.

A heated argument ensues, with various family members expressing their opinions on Manjiri's stance. Suwarna, however, supports Manjiri, explaining that Manjiri's actions stem from her deep love for Abhi and a desire to see him happy. She believes that Akshu's choice to have the baby could complicate her life.

As the family argues, Akshu overhears their conversation. Abhi remains steadfast in his decision, determined to support Akshu and the unborn child. The family remains divided on the issue, and Akshu appears distressed.

The next morning, Abhi prepares breakfast as Ruhi accidentally knocks over a vase. Manjiri cries silently, while Aarohi remembers her past with Neil. They talk to Ruhi about her resemblance to her father. The family acknowledges the challenges that may arise if Abhinav's child is brought into the family.

In a preview of the next episode, Akshu arrives late to a puja, and Abhir expresses his resentment towards the baby, hoping that Lord Shiva will remove the baby from their lives. Akshu raises her hand to stop him, but Abhir walks away.
