In the latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, viewers once again witnessed Armaan’s unwavering loyalty toward his so‑called mother, Vidya. As a result, Abhira felt disappointed, and the audience shared her frustration. Despite Vidya’s repeated mistakes, Armaan stood firmly by her side. Consequently, the tension between Abhira and Armaan grew deeper.
Vidya’s Defiance
To begin with, Vidya secretly took Mayra away without informing either Armaan or Abhira. When confronted, Abhira reminded Vidya that Daadisa’s eyes fill with tears at the mere mention of her name. Abhira pleaded with her to reconcile and end the bitterness. However, Vidya refused. She declared she would not bow before anyone. Moreover, she complained about her back pain, using it as an excuse to avoid compromise. Even as Abhira continued to request, Vidya insisted she would take Mayra with her no matter what.
Abhira’s Challenge
At this point, Abhira grew firm. She told Vidya that by challenging a mother, she had crossed a line. Abhira vowed she would not allow such injustice. Until now, she had spoken calmly, but Vidya’s stubbornness forced her to take a stand. Meanwhile, Armaan remained silent, watching the confrontation unfold. Abhira turned to him and warned that supporting Vidya’s attitude would only create bigger problems later. If Vidya never felt guilty, she would never apologize. Therefore, Abhira urged him not to encourage her.
Armaan’s Perspective
Nevertheless, Armaan defended Vidya. He argued that if Mayra stayed with her, perhaps Vidya’s heart would melt. He believed Mayra’s love could make Vidya realize her mistakes. Abhira disagreed. She felt Armaan was failing to understand her. In response, He suggested that Abhira should also return to the Podaar house with them. Yet Abhira reminded him that Daadi Sa could not be left alone. Armaan countered that Abhira was not understanding his point either. As a result, Abhira’s heart broke. Still, she accompanied him and Mayra to the house.
Once inside, Mayra expressed her desire not to stay there. She wanted to live with her mother. She promised she would convince Daadisa and return home soon. But Abhira explained that everyone missed Mayra here. Furthermore, she warned that the other house was dusty and could trigger Mayra’s allergies. She insisted Mayra should remain with her beloved “Billi Papa,” who missed her dearly. Eventually, Mayra gave in. However, she made Abhira promise to return soon, bringing Daadi Sa along. Abhira then placed Mayra’s hand into Armaan’s and quietly walked away.
The Final Blow
Armaan apologized to Abhira as they prepared to leave. Yet the emotional wound remained. As Abhira stepped outside, she turned back one last time. She saw Armaan, Vidya, and Mayra together. Vidya’s face lit up with joy at Mayra’s presence. Finally, Vidya cast a triumphant look at Abhira. Holding his and Mayra’s hands, she led them inside. Abhira stood alone, abandoned and heartbroken.
The episode highlighted Armaan’s inability to balance his loyalty between Vidya and Abhira. Although he believed love could heal Vidya’s stubbornness, his actions left Abhira isolated. As a result, the audience felt the sting of betrayal alongside her. The emotional clash between duty, love, and pride continues to drive the drama forward. Therefore, viewers eagerly await the next twist in this turbulent journey.
