Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Akshara and Abhimanyu nervous as they begin their new journey together

The episode commences with Aarohi voicing her distress about being touched by Sujeet on four occasions and further states that he molested her. Sujeet's wife chastises Aarohi, provoking Kairav's anger. Manish reprimands Kairav, and Akshu questions her knowledge of her husband. Manjiri inquires about Aarohi's claims, prompting Aarohi and Akshu to urge her to question Sujeet. Akshu takes Sujeet and his wife to task while staunchly defending Aarohi. She argues that societal fear had kept Aarohi silent until now and questions why she didn't react when Sujeet first touched her. Akshu delivers a stern lecture to Sujeet, asserting that Aarohi isn't weak, and the responsibility for the situation lies with him. Sujeet accuses Aarohi of pursuing married men of means, leading Akshu to threaten him. She promises not to let him off easily and invokes her son Abhir as a point of commitment. Sujeet attempts to gain support from Manjiri and Mahima, but the women unite in solidarity with Aarohi, ultimately expelling Sujeet and his wife from the scene under Abhi's directive.

Aarohi is emotionally overwhelmed and expresses her gratitude for the support she received, with Akshu reaffirming her inner strength. Manish commends Aarohi for her resilience, likening her to the goddess Durga, and they share an affectionate moment. Meanwhile, Akshu experiences dizziness, and despite Dadi's advice against fasting, she attributes her weakness and dizziness to something beyond fasting. Suwarna suggests that she undergo blood tests, especially given the prevalence of viral infections. The following morning, Manish and Akshu provide blood samples for testing. Suwarna recommends comprehensive body profile tests for Akshu. In a mix-up, a nurse places Akshu's sample in the pregnancy blood test box. Suwarna encourages Akshu to sit and have a meal, and they share an emotional moment.

Manish assures Akshu that Abhi and Abhir will take care of her, while Akshu expresses her intention to rely on their support in times of need. They prepare for a family photoshoot, and amidst the session, they capture moments and fend off any negative energy. Manish recognizes a suitable picture for a school project. Aarohi suggests taking a family photo, highlighting the importance of including Ruhi. Abhi and Akshu engage in a romantic pose and communicate their affection silently. Abhir and Ruhi join in the festivities, welcoming guests and introducing a 90s theme for the Sangeet. Manish and Suwarna grace the stage with a dance performance to "Gustakh Dil," earning applause from the audience.

Abhir and Ruhi have a brief disagreement, but they reconcile as they call upon Kairav, Anand, and Aarohi for the next performance, dancing to "Koi Kahe." During this, Akshu admits to feeling nervous about their dance performance, with Abhi teasing her about the influence of their son on her emotions. They share a playful moment, and Abhi offers her a chocolate, which she declines due to her sudden aversion to dairy products, to Abhi's understanding.
