Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Abhira stops Armaan from leaving, seeks closure before final goodbye

Star Plus' Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai has taken an emotional and dramatic turn as Armaan and Abhira finally come face-to-face after a separation of seven years. Abhira had held on to the hope that Armaan would return and they'd reunite with their daughter, little Pookie. But her hopes are crushed when she sees Armaan proposing to Geetanjali. Heartbroken, she hands him divorce papers, and though hurt, Armaan signs them, choosing his daughter's happiness over his own. Later, Armaan admits to Geetanjali that their marriage is only for Maira's sake, as he still can't move on from his past love.

The current track takes a dramatic turn when Armaan rushes to Udaipur after hearing about Vidya's eye condition. Despite staying under the same roof, Abhira avoids him completely. Meanwhile, Armaan learns that Sanjay and Krish tricked Kaveri into signing over the Poddar house and firm. Furious, he slaps Krish and vows to bring Kaveri, Vidya, and Abhira back to the Poddar house with full dignity.

In the upcoming episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Armaan finds himself caught between his feelings for Abhira and the life he had built in Mount Abu. He sees Abhira and considers telling her the truth about Maira and Geetanjali but hesitates, wondering how he would explain everything to Maira if he comes clean.

As he reflects on his actions, he realises that since he kept the truth hidden, he should be the one to face the consequences. With that thought, he decides to return to Mount Abu and resume his old life. He begins packing his belongings and prepares to leave, thinking it's better to walk away rather than cause more pain to others.

Just as he is about to leave, he crosses paths with Abhira. They exchange a silent gaze. Armaan continues getting ready to go, but Abhira stops him. She gently asks him to stay at least until her mother's surgery is done. She says that maybe their story is reaching its final chapters and suggests they give it a proper closure by spending a little more time together.
