Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Armaan saves Ruhi first

In tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode, Abhira (Samridhii Shukla) flees from Armaan (Rohit Purohit), prompting him to pursue her, only to stumble. Amidst his fall, Armaan discovers Ruhi's (Garvita Sadhwani) peril, sparking his determination to save her at any cost. Vidya probes Kaveri about potential trouble, but Kaveri brushes her off, opting to keep her worries to herself as she resolves to safeguard her family, though feeling remorseful for hurting Vidya.

As Armaan learns of Ruhi and Abhira's jeopardy, Kaveri contacts him, inquiring about their safety, leading Armaan to disclose the danger they're in and feeling overwhelmed. Kaveri, however, offers words of encouragement, urging Armaan to rescue both Abhira and Ruhi. Meanwhile, the Poddars are astonished, and Armaan receives a chilling ultimatum from a goon, setting a tight deadline for saving Abhira or Ruhi, complicating matters further.

Armaan successfully rescues Ruhi:

The goon sets a tight deadline for Arman: 21 minutes to save either Abhira or Ruhi. As the clock ticks, Armaan races against time, torn between saving Ruhi and worrying about Abhira's fate. Abhira urges Armaan to rescue Ruhi first. Shocked, Armaan promises to save her, but Abhira stops him with a heartfelt plea, invoking his mother's oath. The goon taunts Abhira, who remains resolute, while Armaan implores divine intervention for her protection, believing in her capability to fend for herself. As the situation escalates, anxiety mounts among Manish, Swarna, and Surekha for Ruhi's welfare, with Swarna's faith resting on Armaan's shoulders.

In a tense confrontation with the goons, Armaan successfully rescues Ruhi just in time. Meanwhile, Abhira struggles in her own attempt at liberation, prompting Armaan's grave concern. Despite Ruhi's reassurance, Armaan remains fraught with worry, shedding tears for Abhira.

The fate of Abhira hangs in the balance:

As time runs out, flames encroach, and Abhira attempts to free herself, but her efforts are met with struggle. The Poddars watch on anxiously, their concern extending to Abhira, Armaan, and Ruhi. In a moment of desperation, Abhira manages to untie herself, yet Armaan's mind is plagued with ominous thoughts about her well-being.

Despite Ruhi's reassurance, Armaan's worry for Abhira intensifies, propelling him into action as they both rush to her aid. As the burst of fire erupts, Armaan's anguished cries echo through the chaos, fearing the worst for Abhira. The episode draws to a close on a cliffhanger, leaving the fate of Abhira hanging in the balance.
