Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Dadi takes away Akshara's belongings from Abhira & demands Rohit's return

The episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai tonight commences with the entire group urging Rohit to join the dance. As they dance to the rhythm of "Haq hai humko… Aaj sher khul gaye," Rohit's attention is drawn to Ruhi, triggering memories of their marriage. Meanwhile, Ruhi notices Armaan, who avoids eye contact and continues dancing. Abhira observes Dadi, and Manish notices her concern. As the countdown for the new year begins, Rohit, with a heavy heart, announces the last 10 seconds. Amid the celebration, Armaan playfully handcuffs himself to Rohit, and the festivities continue. However, Rohit, overwhelmed with emotion, abruptly leaves, prompting concern among the guests.

Armaan calls out to Rohit, but he remains elusive. Vidya instructs Krish to check the room, but Rohit is nowhere to be found. Worried about his disappearance, Vidya, Madhav, and others search for him. Dadi, however, nonchalantly dismisses the situation, attributing it to Rohit's childhood habit of seeking solace with friends. She suggests playing a game to alleviate the tension, leaving everyone anxious.

As time passes and the clock strikes 3 am, Vidya anxiously awaits Rohit's return. Abhira advises Ruhi to take her medicine, assuring her that Rohit will come back. Dadi proposes calling Rohit, but he remains unreachable. Concern grows, and Abhira suggests filing a police complaint, but Sanjay and Madhav advocate waiting. Manisha, overhearing Aryan, accuses Abhira of causing Rohit's departure. Amidst accusations and tensions, Abhira collapses, prompting Armaan to take her aside.

In a heated conversation, Manisha blames Abhira for Rohit's departure, and Vidya confronts her daughter-in-law about Rohit's final words. Accusations escalate, with Abhira getting dizzy. Armaan warns her about the potential consequences of her actions on Rohit. The family blames Abhira for Rohit leaving, and she denies any knowledge of the reasons behind his departure. Dadi intervenes, presenting a box as a bargaining chip, demanding Rohit's return in exchange. Abhira pleads for the box, insisting it's her mother's last belonging. Dadi, unmoved, asserts that nothing is more important than Rohit.

Abhira expresses her frustration at being blamed, and Manish shares the Goenka daughters' past struggles. Ruhi suggests that Rohit left after discovering something about them, leaving Armaan shocked and Abhira distressed.
