Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Abhira prepares for her unborn baby to lighten Armaan's burden after her death

In tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode, Abhira asks Armaan to remain calm after his argument with a stranger. Armaan, however, expresses frustration, stating that this man chose the child over his love. Abhira responds, suggesting that this is also a difficult choice for the husband. Abhira again urges him to stay composed, and they both share a hug. Krish then asks Armaan to handle Kaveri's discharge.

Abhira encourages Armaan to go, but Armaan questions whether she is keeping something from him. Abhira tells him to stop being suspicious. Armaan argues that hiding things from each other always leads to misunderstandings. Abhira reassures him, though she secretly decides to keep her pregnancy a secret for now, thinking he will choose her instead of the baby. Manish approaches and advises Abhira not to worry, as Kaveri is in good health.

Meanwhile, Madhav asks Kaveri to stay calm, and Vidya decides she will take care of Kaveri. Kaveri, however, refuses help from both Vidya and Manisha and requests Kajal's assistance instead. Manisha, frustrated, tells Vidya that Kaveri's behaviour is due to Abhira. This angers Vidya.

Abhira upsets Armaan:

Abhira is determined to make everything right for her unborn child, bracing herself for the challenges she might face during her pregnancy. She starts to imagine how Armaan and the baby would be content without her, feeling unnoticed in her efforts to gain their attention. Lost in thought, she is startled when Armaan interrupts her. He notices some brochures, and Abhira explains that they are for preschools, which makes Armaan suspicious. He questions her intentions, asking if she's doing this for Ruhi and Rohit's child and wonders why she's going to such lengths. Before Abhira can respond, Armaan confronts her, questioning how she plans to fix their broken dreams by clinging to these new hopes.

He then asks her what she gains by holding onto the fear and uncertainty, frustrated by her actions. Abhira tries to understand why Armaan is giving up on the idea of having a baby. Armaan bluntly tells her that she needs to accept the reality that they won't have a child and move forward. He then shocks Abhira by confessing that she alone is enough for him, leaving her speechless.

Elsewhere, Sanjay encourages Kajal to discuss Charu's wedding with Kaveri. Kajal feels hesitant to bring it up. Meanwhile, Abhira apologises to Armaan once again. Armaan, still suspicious, asks if she's hiding something from him. Abhira insists he should stop overthinking. 

Vidya accuses Abhira:

The following day, when Abhira vomits, Armaan becomes concerned and plans to call a doctor. She reassures him, asking him not to worry. Despite her efforts, Armaan remains troubled about her health. Abhira decides to visit the temple to pray for Kaveri's recovery.

In another scene, Vidya and Manisha offer Ruhi a sweet dish, kheer. Abhira hears that the kheer made by Vidya is good for babies and feels drawn to it. Kajal finally brings up the wedding with Kaveri, who asks Charu if she is truly ready for marriage. Charu follows Kajal's guidance, and Kaveri stresses that the family's honour must be upheld. However, the conversation shifts when Abhira arrives and offers aarti and prasad to Kaveri.

Ruhi accidentally spills some kheer, but Manisha and Vidya reassure her, mentioning they made extra. Abhira decides to partake in the kheer, hoping that Vidya's blessings will benefit her baby. As she eats, Vidya calls her greedy, much to Abhira's surprise.

Precap for the next episode:

In the precap, Armaan tells Kaveri that he believes Abhira is hiding something. Abhira contemplates finally telling Armaan about her pregnancy.
