Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Vidya admits separating Abhira & Armaan, Armaan fights goons for Abhira

The episode opens with Arman alone in his room, lost in thoughts about Abhira. Overcome with anger and hurt, he picks up a framed photograph of himself with Abhira and Myra and rips it apart. The torn pieces fall to the floor just as Vidya walks in and notices them. She quietly gathers the pieces, her face clouded with emotion.

Kajal soon confronts Vidya, questioning why she seems disturbed when she was the one who always insisted that Arman and Abhira should go their separate ways. Vidya tries to brush it off, but Kajal does not hold back. She asks Vidya whether she truly believes no one knows the truth. Kajal then reveals that she is aware of everything. She knows that Vidya handed over Myra’s custody papers to Arman instead of Abhira and that she deliberately kept Abhira from meeting her own daughter. According to Kajal, it was Vidya who quietly orchestrated the rift between Arman and Abhira all along.

Vidya does not deny it. Instead, she openly admits to her actions and says she has no regrets. In her eyes, Abhira betrayed Arman’s trust by choosing to believe Anita over him. She also blames Abhira for leaving Myra in danger during the fire and saving Vani instead. Vidya insists that someone capable of that does not deserve a place in her son’s life. Kajal challenges her, asking who gave her the authority to make such life altering decisions for them. Vidya answers firmly that she is Arman’s mother and will always do what she thinks is best for him.

When Vidya questions why Kajal kept quiet for so many years, Kajal explains that she did not want to drive a wedge between a mother and her son. But she makes it clear that her silence will not last forever. One day, she says, she will ask for something in return. Vidya agrees without hesitation. Their tense exchange is cut short when Manisha steps in and urges them to stop staring daggers at each other.

Later, Manisha, Kajal, Vidya, and Tanya approach Arman to apologise. He listens but remains unmoved. He says their words mean nothing because Myra was the one who suffered. He reprimands them for taking her out shopping without informing him and lays down a strict rule that no one will take Myra anywhere without his consent. Kaveri takes the opportunity to make a pointed remark about Abhira, indirectly stirring the pot further. Elsewhere, Abhira waits anxiously, hoping for news about Myra.
