Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Kaveri REFUSES to accept Abhira's baby after learning the surrogacy truth

In tonight's episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Armaan has a serious discussion with Rohit, Ruhi, and Abhira, emphasising the importance of honesty. He expresses his belief that they should not deceive their families or manipulate their emotions. Ruhi, however, challenges his stance, questioning why he is so determined to reveal the truth when everyone seems content. She points out that Vidya even bought the same ring for Abhira, symbolising acceptance.

Despite Ruhi's argument, Armaan remains resolute, stating that the happiness they see is built on a false foundation. He is firm in his decision to disclose everything to both families. Standing by Armaan, Abhira makes up her mind to come clean about the surrogacy, believing that honesty is the best path forward.

Meanwhile, Sanjay devises a plan to expose Armaan, Rohit, Ruhi, and Abhira's secret. He manipulates hospital staff to extract crucial information and successfully uncovers the truth about surrogacy.

Elsewhere, Armaan gathers both families for an important revelation. Aryan and Krish, unaware of the real reason, assume that the meeting at Armaan's workplace is for a celebratory occasion. However, Armaan quickly clarifies that he has called them to share significant news. Before he can make his announcement, Sanjay intervenes and discloses the shocking truth—that Ruhi opted to become Abhira's surrogate to portray herself as noble and self-sacrificing. This revelation leaves the Poddars and the Goenkas in utter shock.

Kaveri lashes out at Armaan and Abhira, accusing them of being selfish and taking advantage of Ruhi. She demands to know if Armaan intends to separate the baby from Ruhi after birth. However, Ruhi stands her ground, asserting that the child rightfully belongs to Abhira.

But Kaveri remains unconvinced and questions Rohit, asking if he truly has no concern for Ruhi. She reminds everyone how Armaan once prioritized Abhira over the baby. Raising a crucial point, she turns to Rohit and demands to know whom he would choose if a similar crisis arose during delivery—Abhira and Armaan’s baby or Ruhi? This leaves the four of them stunned, unable to respond.

Still seeking answers, Kaveri confronts Armaan, Abhira, and Rohit, pressing them for an explanation. She goes a step further, declaring that this child will bring destruction into everyone’s lives. Unable to tolerate such harsh words, Abhira firmly stands up for her unborn baby, stating that the child will bring joy, not misfortune. However, Kaveri refuses to acknowledge or bless the baby, vowing never to accept it. She then delivers a final blow, ominously warning that both Abhira and Ruhi will regret their choices before taking away their rings.

As tensions escalate, Manish and other family members withdraw from Abhira, refusing to engage with her. Meanwhile, Abhira reflects on her decisions and realises she should have listened to Armaan sooner. He reassures and supports her through the turmoil.

Vidya is left in disbelief upon learning about the surrogacy. Madhav contemplates the future of the baby, while Kaveri, still disturbed, fears the implications of Ruhi's past feelings for Armaan and how they might affect the present. However, Madhav encourages her to adopt a more optimistic perspective.

Elsewhere, Manish discovers that Swarna had known about the truth all along. Confronting her, he demands an explanation. Swarna admits that she was aware and had tried to dissuade Armaan and Abhira from going ahead with their decision.

Meanwhile, Aryan, Krish, Kiara, and Charu extend their support to Armaan, Abhira, Ruhi, and Rohit. As the situation unfolds, Rohit and Ruhi overhear the chorus gang discussing the matter.

Precap for the next episode:

In the precap, the Goenkas, along with Armaan, Abhira, and Rohit, shower Ruhi with care and affection. Meanwhile, Manish prays that nothing disrupts the bond between Armaan, Rohit, Ruhi, and Abhira.
