Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Abhira & Armaan to get into a heated arguement, Akshara looks on

The episode commences with a touching moment as Abhira (Samridhii Shukla) humbly seeks Manish's (Sachin Tyagi) blessings by touching his feet, and he graciously bestows them upon her. He praises her unique way of seeking blessings, and she attributes it to her mother's teachings. Meanwhile, Armaan, Sanjay, and Chacha ji engage in a lively game of archery, reveling in the fun of the moment. Sanjay suggests to Armaan (Shehzada Dhami) that lowering the windshield repair costs could serve as a valuable lesson, and Armaan departs to consider the idea. Sanjay and Chacha ji discuss the Omesh Gupta case, with Sanjay providing valuable advice, emphasizing the importance of keeping things uncomplicated.

Vidya attentively delivers cream and tea to Dadi, who commends her for her caring nature. Vidya expresses her sense of being blessed, and Dadi warmly bestows her blessings. Manisha seeks Maasa's blessings as well and confides in Kajal about being sent outside. She expresses her frustration that despite their husbands working tirelessly, Vidya always seems to receive more praise. Kajal encourages her to let go of these feelings. Maasa instructs Vidya to take charge of the situation just as Armaan returns and inquires about everyone's well-being.

Dadi reflects on the soothing sight and expresses her wish for people to be better. Her thoughts are interrupted by a video call from Rohit, and she conveys her deep longing for him. Rohit reciprocates the sentiment and suggests they celebrate their birthday on his behalf, urging them to promise to do so. Armaan engages in a private conversation with Rohit, who advises him to fulfill Maasa's dreams. Rohit encourages Armaan to embrace the possibility of finding love and a soul mate during their stay in Mussoorie, which elicits a somewhat reluctant response from Armaan. Nevertheless, Rohit offers his blessings, hoping that love will find its way into Armaan's life.

The story takes an unexpected turn as Armaan, while on a call with Rohit, witnesses Ruhi talking to someone about family matters. He is charmed by her and comes to her rescue when her heels break, causing her to slip. Their encounter leads to a heartfelt connection as Armaan assures her that he won't let go of her hand. A brief yet intense moment of eye contact ensues, followed by a conversation during which Ruhi expresses her trust in him.

Later, Ruhi's caring nature becomes evident as she presents Manish and Suwarna with medicines and knee warmers. The family receives a heartfelt hamper from the resort, and Ruhi's gestures of care and love earn her admiration from Manish and Suwarna. Manish reflects on his past while gazing at a jar of jam, expressing his mixed emotions, and Suwarna comforts him, reminding him of the purpose of their visit – to celebrate his birthday. He acknowledges Ruhi as their source of hope and happiness.

As the day unfolds, Abhira visits Armaan's room and finds him shirtless, leading to a moment of surprise. Armaan and Ruhi subsequently engage in friendly and supportive interactions, forming a connection that Abhira observes from the sidelines. Meanwhile, Akshu returns home, and Abhira congratulates her on a successful case. However, she becomes anxious when Akshu inquires about a broken glass and a punctured tire, hinting that there might be more to the story. Abhira attempts to reassure her by offering tea and using the example she had suggested. But Akshu shares an unexpected encounter with a guy bearing gifts, dhol, and flowers, leaving Abhira worried.
