Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Ruhi sees Manish's call on Abhira's phone, gets in a tussle with her

The episode kicks off with Dadi expressing her anger towards Armaan and Abhira. Abhira suggests that Armaan should participate in the puja if she can't. Armaan intervenes, but Dadi raises her voice. She instructs Sanjay and Kajal to conduct the puja. Abhira takes Armaan aside while Sanjay and Kajal perform the rituals. Abhira mentions they can still see the puja from their location, but Armaan points out that Dadi has set a boundary to keep them away. Undeterred, Abhira and Armaan pray for Rohit's return.

Krish and others encourage Aryan to go for a hockey match, but he refuses. Abhira discusses Rohit's situation with Madhav, who conveys that they couldn't find any leads. Aryan's hockey match is approaching, and Armaan is hesitant to participate due to Dadi's displeasure. Abhira urges Armaan to take responsibility for Aryan, emphasizing that he needs to step into Rohit's shoes. She shares a motivating story about Akshu and pledges her support. Armaan reluctantly agrees, and they decide to meet in the parking lot in 10 minutes.

Krish advises Armaan to attend the match, and Armaan encourages Aryan to play in Rohit's absence. Aryan hesitates, expressing concern about Rohit not returning. Armaan consoles him, and Aryan agrees to play. They decide not to inform Dadi to avoid upsetting her further. Abhira convinces Ruhi to attend the match, and they leave. Dadi learns about their departure and expresses concern about Abhira driving. The group, including Armaan and Ruhi, reminisces about Rohit while driving to the match location.

At the match venue, Aryan realizes he lost his hockey stick, which was a gift from Rohit. Armaan suggests using a spare one, but Aryan insists on having that specific stick. Abhira attaches Rohit's picture to a new hockey stick, telling Aryan that he'll be playing with Rohit that day. Dadi arrives, sees the gesture, and ties a red thread to the hockey stick, expressing her support for Aryan. She emphasizes that Rohit's presence will double Aryan's strength, and they share a heartwarming moment. 

The precap hints at Ruhi discovering an incoming call on Abhira's phone of Manish Goenka, she does not like it and accuses her of snatching him away.
