Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Ruhi regrets hurting Daksh, reflects on her past actions

Tonight's episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai begins with Ruhi growing emotional as she reflects on Abhira's guidance about taking care of Daksh. Overwhelmed with guilt, she recalls how she neglected Daksh, refused to feed him when he was hungry, almost naming him "Ashubh," and other past incidents. These memories bring her to tears.

Rohit arrives and informs Ruhi that Armaan has regained consciousness and is now doing well. He shares his deep fear of losing Armaan, adding to the emotional moment. Ruhi, however, remains burdened by guilt and remembers how Daksh could have been seriously hurt if Abhira hadn't intervened.

Rohit comforts Ruhi, encouraging her to leave the past behind and reminding her that Daksh is too young to remember these events as he grows up. Despite his reassurance, Ruhi confesses that this guilt will remain in her heart forever.

The following day, Manish and Abhir get into a heated argument over Abhir's behaviour. Abhir tries to defend himself, and amidst the chaos, Abhira steps in to prevent Abhir from getting hurt. Later, Abhira prepares to meet her clients despite her family urging her to rest. Manish advises her to take it easy, but Abhira refuses and instead asks her family to remind her of all the events from the past few days. Her request leaves everyone shocked. They try to dissuade her, insisting that revisiting the past will only hinder her progress. However, Abhira firmly declares that moving on is impossible for her.

While Manish decides against fulfilling Abhira's request, Abhir takes it upon himself to share the recent events with her. Hearing about everything that transpired, Abhira breaks down in tears but promises to try to be stronger in the future. Before she leaves for work, Manish receives legal documents and becomes visibly tense. Abhira notices and questions him, but Manish dodges her queries with vague excuses.

At the Poddar residence, Kaveri and Vidya oppose Armaan's decision to meet Abhira, citing her absence during his hospital stay. Armaan defends Abhira, explaining that she had visited him, though Kaveri refuses to believe him. Despite Kaveri's efforts to keep Armaan at home, he leaves to meet Abhira.

Meanwhile, Manish instructs his lawyer to modify certain clauses in Armaan and Abhira's divorce papers. Unexpectedly, Manisha and Swarna confront him about his actions. Manish defends his decision, asserting that he is prioritising Abhira's safety, which he believes the Poddars cannot ensure. Both women attempt to reason with him, insisting that his approach is wrong. They also seek Abhir's help, but he sides with Manish, warning him not to repeat the mistakes made in Akshara's life. Manish assures them that he has no intention of doing so.

Abhira later meets her clients and is surprised to see Armaan. He pleads for her forgiveness, but she rejects his apology. Meanwhile, Kaveri criticises Abhira, but Madhav steps in to support her. The situation takes a dramatic turn when everyone receives Abhira and Armaan's divorce papers, leaving them stunned.

At the same time, Abhira faces hurtful comments from a colleague who accuses her of kidnapping Ruhi's child. Armaan intervenes, warning the colleague to stop and leave. He then tries once more to persuade Abhira to forgive him, reminding her of the promises she had made to him. Abhira responds by admitting her mistake of trusting him blindly and walks away. Vidya confronts Abhira about the divorce papers, and Abhira quickly realises that Manish is behind them. However, she chooses not to answer Vidya's questions and leaves.

Later, Abhira confronts Manish about his actions. Manish, with support from Abhir, defends his decision, arguing that it was in her best interest and that Armaan would only continue to hurt her. Meanwhile, Kaveri lashes out at Abhira for initiating the divorce process. Armaan, however, refuses to believe that Abhira sent the papers and repeatedly tries to contact her, though she does not respond. Madhav urges Kaveri to allow Abhira and Armaan to make their own decisions about their future.

At the same time, Manish questions Abhira's decision to ignore Armaan's calls. He expresses his belief that Abhira will never truly forgive Armaan for his mistakes.
