Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Armaan lets go of Abhira's hand, Ruhi smirks

Tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai commences with Armaan, telling everyone that he doesn't have the reports yet. Kaveri calls him over, and Ruhi expresses regret, realizing she should have informed Dadisa about the situation. She initially believed Armaan wouldn't go through with marrying Abhira, and now regrets revealing her thoughts to him. She is left wondering how to rectify the situation. Meanwhile, she notices Vidya wondering who left the silbatta in place. She decides to lift it, hoping Vidya will come across the reports and halt the marriage plans.

Manisha, while attending to Abhira, offers her water and mentions writing Armaan's name on her hand. Armaan, distressed and haunted by Ruhi's words, starts to cry. Sanjay observes the tension and comments on the apparent concern. Dadi speculates that the reports might contain troubling news. Vidya intervenes, stopping Abhira and declaring that Armaan's name will not be written on her hand. She presents the report to Abhira, who is devastated to learn that she cannot conceive. The room is filled with shock and sadness.

Armaan is distressed:

Abhira becomes lightheaded, and Armaan catches her, expressing his reluctance for everyone to see the report. He explains to Vidya that it's Abhira's right to know the details first, as it's a private matter between them. Vidya, aware of Armaan's dreams of fatherhood, argues that Abhira's inability to fulfil this dream is tragic. Armaan is adamant about not leaving Abhira despite the situation. Dadi urges Armaan to consider his options carefully, highlighting that while he may marry Abhira, he could never have a biological child of his own. This decision could impact his future, including the potential adoption of a child whose life could be as challenging like him.

Armaan, grappling with the weight of the situation, lets go of Abhira's hand. Dadi further presses him to think about the implications of marrying Abhira, emphasizing that this choice means giving up the possibility of having a biological child. Manish intervenes, stating that marriage isn't solely about having children and that Abhira could be a good life partner. Sanjay dismisses this, arguing that Abhira is a source of trouble and suggesting that they should stop trying to make it work. Manish's frustration leads to a confrontation, but Sanjay calms him down, reminding him that the truth remains unchanged.

Manish supports Abhira:

As Abhira collapses in distress, Manish supports her and advises her not to let her tears go unnoticed, indicating the harsh realities of life. He tells her to choose her path wisely, as staying might only lead to more humiliation. Manish then escorts her away while Vidya reassures Armaan that she will fight for his happiness. Abhira, seeing a beggar, decides to donate money from her jewellery, reflecting her own sense of loss and empathy.

Vidya discusses with Armaan the concept of blood relations versus adopting a child, stressing the emotional weight such decisions carry. Rohit supports Armaan's right to make his own choices about his marriage and future.
