Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Armaan reaches Udaipur but misses seeing Abhira, finally finds Maira

In tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Armaan tries to stop Maira from heading to Udaipur, but she stands firm on her decision. Frustrated by his resistance, Maira expresses her disappointment. Later, Geetanjali confronts Armaan about any possible link he has to Udaipur. Armaan dodges her questions, prompting Geetanjali to suspect that he's hiding something.

Despite his attempts to persuade Maira to reconsider, she firmly reminds him of her hard-earned achievement and the support she received from Geetanjali. Armaan insists he's willing to take her anywhere else, just not Udaipur. He urges her to eat before he heads off for work. Geetanjali advises him to handle the matter with a gentle approach.

Later, Geetanjali speaks to Maira, trying to explain Armaan's point of view. However, Maira confidently explains why going to Udaipur is important for her growth, ultimately convincing Geetanjali.

Meanwhile, at work, Anshuman asks Abhira to present her ideas. Impressed by her creativity, he encourages her to raise the prices for her saree collection. While Abhira maintains a professional tone, Anshuman offers her coffee, subtly hinting at a more personal interest.

Back at the radio station, Armaan remains troubled over Maira's plans. His superior urges him to concentrate on his job. During his show, Armaan gives advice to his listeners, encouraging them to listen to their hearts, words that reflect his own inner conflict. Geetanjali, listening in, begins to wonder if she, too, should follow her heart. Inspired by Armaan's words, Maira makes up her mind to go to Udaipur.

At Anshuman's office, Krish unexpectedly runs into Abhira, who clearly tries to avoid interaction. Curious, Anshuman asks Krish about his visit, and Krish extends a movie invitation to him and Tanya. Anshuman questions Krish about why he didn’t include Abhira in the movie plan, pointing out that she’s like family. Prompted by this, Krish invites Abhira to join them, but she politely refuses. Noticing the awkwardness between the two, Anshuman later speaks privately with Abhira, expressing that he senses something is wrong and asks her about it. Abhira, however, tells him to find the answers from Krish. When Anshuman says it’s difficult to believe only one side of the story, Abhira advises him to listen to his heart and trust whoever it points to, leaving Anshuman smiling thoughtfully.

Soon after, Armaan discovers that Maira has left for Udaipur, accompanied by Geetanjali. He confronts Geetanjali, questioning her decision to go without informing him. She explains that Maira had planned to travel solo, so she chose to join her. Armaan criticises her for making such a big decision without consulting him. Feeling torn, Armaan decides to follow them to Udaipur, acknowledging that though he left the city for Maira once, he now must return for her sake.

At a cultural event in Udaipur, Armaan and Abhira come close to encountering each other. Abhira hopes her 'lucky charm' helps her through the event. While Armaan searches for Maira, Maira catches a glimpse of him from afar. Amid the hustle, a group of women accidentally swap Armaan and Abhira's belongings. Both feel a strong pull, sensing each other's presence in the bustling crowd, but despite being so close, they miss seeing one another. While Abhira is caught up in the strange feeling that Armaan is around, he finally spots Maira in the distance and rushes to her, eventually managing to catch up with her.
