Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Kaveri shocks Abhira with warning about becoming a third wheel in her own marriage

In tonight's episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Abhira playfully asks Armaan if he's feeling anxious about the upcoming arrival of their baby. Armaan responds with a smile, saying he's more than ready and soon the little one will have them on their toes. The couple excitedly counts down the remaining days until their baby, lovingly nicknamed Pookie, arrives.

Elsewhere, Kiara is seen chasing after Abhir and ends up discovering something that leaves her stunned. She finally realises that Charu and Abhir are entangled in an unexpected affair. Overwhelmed by the truth, Kiara breaks down, heartbroken by what she sees as Abhir's betrayal.

Meanwhile, Abhira, Armaan, and Ruhi continue to support and care for one another as a family. In the first scene, Armaan keeps a watchful eye on Ruhi, who's supposed to be doing yoga. At the same time, he's also on a video call with Abhira, who is expected to focus on her work. However, both women are struggling to stay awake. With a playful yet motivating tone, Armaan urges them to stay alert and concentrate on their respective tasks.

In the following scene, Armaan connects with both Abhira and Ruhi on a video call again. This time, Abhira is seen trying to coax Ruhi into eating some fruits. Their sweet exchange is interrupted when baby Daksh starts crying. Abhira seamlessly shifts her focus to him, calming the baby and feeding him milk with gentle care, showcasing her growing confidence in multitasking between home and relationships.

Later, Abhira helps Madhav prepare himself to resume his duties. She motivates him to return to work, reassuring him that she has everything under control. Moved by her maturity and strength, Madhav expresses his appreciation for how she has been managing both the household and the family. Just then, Kaveri sees Abhira and Madhav together, which doesn't go unnoticed by Abhira.

On the other hand, Vidya asks Armaan to deliver a gift on behalf of Rohit. Armaan agrees without hesitation and takes the responsibility. Later, when Abhir comes home late, Kiara is left shattered. Meanwhile, Abhira catches Charu sneaking in late and confronts her actions. Charu brushes it off, claiming she went to see her friends, but Abhira grows increasingly suspicious of her behaviour.

Later, as Ruhi shares her excitement about the baby, Abhira and Armaan become emotional upon seeing their baby's first scan. Overcome with joy, they embrace. Sensing that Ruhi may be feeling left out, Abhira immediately apologises for unintentionally ignoring her feelings. Ruhi, however, reassures her that the moment truly belongs to the soon-to-be parents. But Abhira insists that the joy is shared among all three of them and gently asks Ruhi what she'd like. Ruhi, thinking of Rohit, fondly requests noodles with hot chocolate.

Wanting to lift Ruhi's spirits, Armaan and Abhira propose a babymoon. Though Ruhi initially resists the idea, Abhira encourages her to join them. 

Eventually, Ruhi agrees. The trio joyfully announces their trip before the baby's arrival. Abhira explains the idea of a babymoon to the family, calling it a getaway for couples ahead of welcoming a child. However, Kaveri and Sanjay disapprove of the plan. Manish steps in to support them and even offers to care for Daksh while they're away, especially since Kaveri insists Daksh cannot go with them.

Elsewhere, Kiara questions Charu about her plans for marriage and whether she has truly moved on from Abhir. The question takes Charu by surprise, making her reflect on her past.

In another part of the episode, Abhira is seen packing their bags for the upcoming trip. While organising things, she decides to place Ruhi's belongings in Armaan's luggage. Just then, Kaveri walks in and notices what Abhira is doing. With a sharp tone, she remarks that she once believed Abhira to be smart, but her actions are proving otherwise. She questions Abhira's decision to pack Ruhi's things in Armaan's bag, implying that now there's no space left for a wife's belongings in her own husband's suitcase.

Abhira is left confused by Kaveri's words. Sensing her lack of understanding, Kaveri chooses to be more direct. She reveals her concern that if things continue this way, Abhira might end up becoming a third wheel in her own relationship.

Kiara, meanwhile, gives Abhir a final chance to come clean about everything. She resolves to treat him just the way he's been treating her, deciding not to let herself be hurt any longer. Kaveri further states that Abhira has no idea how badly she's complicating her relationship and that the impact of her choices will only become clear once the trip is over. She advises Abhira not to let her emotions cloud her judgment—whether it's fulfilling the child's wishes or standing by her sister—adding that it's time she sees things for what they truly are.

At that very moment, Ruhi, who happens to overhear their conversation, accidentally drops something from her hand, startling both Abhira and Kaveri. Ruhi quickly apologises and turns to leave, suggesting they carry on with their discussion. But Kaveri, unfazed, tells her that everything that needed to be said has already been said. She then walks away, leaving both Abhira and Ruhi stunned and speechless.
