Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Abhira and Armaan team up to bring Abhir and Charu together

In tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode, Shivani questions Roop about his reluctance to accept Armaan's help in visiting Abhira's house. Roop responds with concern, wondering if Armaan might abduct them. Shivani probes further, asking why Roop has such animosity toward Armaan, especially when they don't possess anything of value that he might take. Roop replies that he has Shivani, and he won't let Armaan take her from him. Shivani reassures him. Meanwhile, Armaan offers to take Roop and Shivani to Abhira's house, and Roop wonders if Abhira is prepared for their visit.

At Abhira's house, Ruhi and Abhira show a ring to Abhir, who shares that he initially chose it for Charu, but now intends to gift it to Kiara. Ruhi is upset with Abhir, accusing him of playing with both Charu and Kiara's feelings. Abhira explains that Abhir is attempting to make Charu jealous by proposing to Kiara. Abhir admits it's part of his plan. Ruhi and Abhira express their concerns about Charu's potential departure from Abhir's life, but Abhir remains hopeful, stating that even if Charu doesn't marry him, Kiara will at least be happy.

Kiara, excited about marrying Abhir, turns to Charu for assistance in convincing the Poddars. She also asks Charu for help in picking out a ring for Abhir. Charu becomes emotional, and Kiara pleads for her support. Meanwhile, Manish grows angry with Abhir, but Abhira tries to calm him down. However, their peace is disrupted when Roop, Armaan, and Shivani arrive at their doorstep.

Shocked by their unexpected visit, Abhira accidentally shatters a glass, but Shivani remarks that the breakage is considered auspicious. Shivani and Abhira have a conversation, which leaves Manish stunned as he realises that Roop and Abhira are playing a game. Shivani asks if Roop and Abhira have been fighting, and Abhira assures her that no such thing has happened. Roop tells Armaan to leave.

Shivani comments that Armaan and Abhira must be familiar with each other, and she decides to leave. However, Abhira almost gets hurt in the process, and Armaan steps in to help her. Roop and Shivani are taken aback by the closeness between Armaan and Abhira. Armaan tells Abhira that she was almost injured. Shivani suggests that Roop should learn from Armaan.

After their departure, Abhira attempts to discuss the situation with Armaan regarding Abhir and Charu. However, seeing the tension on his face, Abhira quickly reminds him that she had already explained the situation to him, stating that Shivani wasn’t feeling well and was only pretending for Roop’s sake. Armaan, visibly upset, calls out Abhira for her dramatic behavior in front of Roop and Shivani. Abhira defends herself, but Armaan, growing increasingly frustrated, mocks her for acting like a wife before their separation even begins. This leads to a heated argument between the two.

Abhira, trying to keep the conversation focused, insists that they should discuss Abhir and Charu's relationship without making it personal. However, Armaan, determined to leave, declares he no longer wants to talk. Abhira intervenes, urging Armaan to find out if Charu truly loves Abhir, asking him to at least have a conversation with her. Armaan, however, insists that she should give up on love. Abhira, with conviction, responds that love is too powerful a force for her to abandon. She vows that if he won’t support her, she will stand by Charu and Abhir herself.

Later, Armaan enters Charu's room to find her in tears. He questions her, wondering if she's planning to leave after noticing a parcel containing a visa and travel agency details. Charu then reveals her intention to visit Chicago for two months. Armaan, seeing her upset, asks if she's crying over Abhira's actions, suspecting she's hurt by his fake love drama. In the heat of the moment, Charu confesses her feelings for Abhir, which surprises Armaan as he realises she has feelings for him too. With this new revelation, Armaan contacts Abhira and decides to take matters into their own hands and work towards bringing Charu and Abhir together for marriage.
