Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Abhira CONVINCES Armaan to accept Ruhi's 'surrogacy offer,' he ADAMANTLY REFUSES

Today's episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai begins with Ruhi making a life-changing decision. She wants to help Abhira and Arman start a family by becoming their surrogate mother. Abhira is overwhelmed by Ruhi's generosity and feels guilty about accepting such a huge favor. Ruhi then explains that she wants to repay Abhira for her kindness when her son Daksh was in coma. Abhira is hesitant, worried that this might cause tension between Rohit, Ruhi, and Daksh. Arman shares his concerns about the challenges Ruhi might face as a surrogate mother.

Rohit suggests creating a contract to avoid any misunderstandings. However, Arman struggles to understand Rohit's point of view. Ruhi reassures Abhira and Arman that they should take their time to think about it, emphasizing that this is a chance for them to have a child. Abhira reads the contract and discusses it with Arman. He ultimately decides that he cannot accept Ruhi's offer, feeling that he would be indebted to her and Rohit. Abhira tries to convince Arman to change his mind, but he insists that they should forget about it.

On the other hand, Abhir is encouraged by his family to take Kiara out on a date. Abhir agrees, but he's not enthusiastic about it. At the restaurant, Abhir feels uncomfortable and tells Kiara to stop treating him like a celebrity. Abhir then runs into Charu, who tries to avoid him. Abhir asks Charu if she doesn't have feelings for him, and Charu replies that getting close to him would be complicated. Abhir confesses that he's tried to be a good husband to Kiara but has failed, and he admits that he has romantic feelings for Charu.

Meanwhile, Kiara searches for Abhir and asks him to give her a chance to be a good wife. However, Abhir ignores her and sends a text message to Charu, asking to meet up. In the closing scene of the episode, Abhira visits a temple and receives a blessing to become a mother. Meanwhile, Rohit and Ruhi wait for Abhira and Armaan, but they're surprised when Abhira returns the contract, indicating that she's declined Ruhi's offer.
