YRKKH: Akshara’s arrival soothes Abhir’s hiccups; Abhir calls Abhimanyu ‘Dadda’

The episode begins with Abhir running and calling out for his mother. Abhimanyu urges him to be careful and asks what happened. Concerned, everyone gathers around. Abhimanyu enquires about Abhir's well-being, while Manjiri mentions that his hiccups won't stop and suggests taking him to the hospital. Aarohi agrees, and just then, Akshu arrives home. Abhir's hiccups miraculously cease upon seeing Akshara.

Manjiri expresses her disappointment that Akshara didn't inform them beforehand. Abhi explains that their mother was worried, especially considering the rainy weather. Akshara clarifies that she came to give Abhir his favorite Dohar and requests them to give it to him. However, Abhir refuses it and walks away. Akshara insists they should give it to him, but Manjiri believes it's best for Abhir to adjust without his old possessions and promises to get him a new Dohar.

Aarohi speculates that Abhir might cry for the very thing he's trying to escape. Akshara agrees with her. Abhinav arrives and apologizes for their sudden visit. Abhimanyu reassures them that as his parents, they can come to meet Abhir anytime without needing to apologize. Abhinav inquires if Abhir has fallen asleep. Akshara confirms it and mentions that she gave the Dohar to Aarohi. They bid farewell and leave, shedding tears.

Abhir observes them departing and bursts into tears while the song "Meri Maa" plays in the background. However, Akshara and Abhinav fail to notice him at the window. Back inside, Abhimanyu notices Abhir's sorrowful state. Akshara and Abhinav return home, where Akshara begins to speak, but Manish embraces her, stopping her from saying anything. Akshara compares her situation to Abhimanyu and wonders if she made a mistake by going there. Manish reassures her that she did nothing wrong and affirms that parents always have the same concern for their child. Kairav asserts that Abhir is her son, granting her the right to make decisions.

Manjiri questions why Abhi is retrieving Abhir's old belongings. Abhi defends his actions, stating that there's nothing wrong if Abhir finds comfort in his old things. Manjiri disagrees, believing it will impede Abhir's ability to move on. Abhi ponders on what he should do.

Aarohi approaches him and asks if there's any confusion, mentioning how happy he seemed when Abhir requested the Dohar. She suggests that Abhi might have been influenced by their mother's words, causing him to hesitate. Aarohi explains that the Dohar serves as a band-aid for Abhir's emotional wounds, but it won't alleviate his pain. She warns Abhi that he might become the person who separates Abhir from his parents, emphasizing that Abhir's true happiness lies with Akshu and Abhinav, not with them. Frustrated, Akshu throws a pillow, and Abhinav offers her another one, extending his hand for her support. She rests her head on his hand and recalls their memories of Abhir, acknowledging that although their child isn't physically with them, he is with Abhi.

Abhimanyu covers Abhir with the Dohar and prays to Lord Shiva before leaving. However, Abhir wakes up and cries, placing pillows around him as he falls asleep, thinking of Akshu and Abhinav. The next morning, Dadi asks Muskaan to perform the aarti. Muskaan requests Akshu to sing instead, as she believes Akshu sings the best. Surekha makes a sarcastic comment, but Kairav defends Akshu. Dadi then asks Akshu if she would sing the aarti. Apologetically, Akshu declines, stating that she won't sing Lord Krishna's aarti.

Precap: Abhi asks Abhir to call him "Papa." Akshu fills out the admission form and informs Abhinav. However, Abhinav tells her that she is still Abhir's mother, but he is no longer his father. Abhir calls out "Dadda," Abhimanyu pauses.
