Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Armaan considers reuniting with Abhira, while she destroys their special bench

Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai has taken an emotional turn after the seven-year leap, focusing on the widening gap between Armaan and Abhira. Abhira had left hoping that Armaan would return to her one day and that Pookie would once again be part of their lives. However, her hopes are shattered when she discovers that Armaan has been living with Pookie, now known as Maira, all these years.

The story takes a heartbreaking twist as Abhira arrives in Mount Abu only to witness Armaan proposing to Geetanjali, leaving her devastated. While Armaan tries to explain himself, Abhira sends him divorce papers, convinced that their relationship has no future. At the same time, Armaan confesses to Geetanjali that although they plan to marry for Maira’s sake, he can never truly be a husband again, as he once loved deeply and cannot fall in love twice. The journey ahead promises more emotional conflicts and unresolved feelings.

In the ongoing storyline, Armaan finally opens up to Geetanjali about his past with Abhira and the emotions he still carries. However, things take a dramatic turn when he receives divorce papers from Abhira and faints from the shock. Meanwhile, Kaveri happens to overhear Anshuman speaking to himself about his growing feelings for Abhira. Pleased by this, Kaveri feels that Armaan doesn’t deserve Abhira and hopes he stays out of her life. As the story heads towards Armaan and Geetanjali’s engagement, we’ve been exclusively bringing you the latest updates, from Abhira breaking her mangalsutra and wiping off her sindoor at her and Armaan’s special spot with Anshuman, to Armaan finding out about what Abhira, Vidya, and Kaveri are currently going through.

In the upcoming episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Abhira and Anshuman visit the special spot that once held deep meaning for Abhira and Armaan. As they arrive, Anshuman notices a broken bench and curiously asks about it. Abhira, with a heavy heart, replies it is the funeral pyre of her relationship with Armaan. She reflects that just one trace of that old life still remains, and it's time to let it go.

In an emotional moment, she pours a glass of water over her forehead, wiping away the sindoor. She then removes her mangalsutra and places it on the bench, saying it, too, was a mark of Armaan's love, and she's ready to part with it.

Meanwhile, back in Mount Abu, Armaan speaks with Maira and tries to find out more about Abhira and the Poddars. He casually asks if her house is large, thinking there might be more people living there. But Maira reveals their home is actually quite small. She mentions that both grandmothers sleep in the bedroom, and the cute aunt rests in the hall. Hearing this, Armaan is stunned and begins to wonder if he should give his relationship with Abhira another chance.
