In tonight’s episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, the Poddar family begins the day by tidying up their home. Meanwhile, Tanya reaches out to Mehta for advice on investing in social media and expresses complete faith in his judgment. Mehta, in turn, encourages Tanya to take charge of an upcoming meeting with potential clients. Though she feels nervous about interacting with them, Mehta motivates her to step up.
While Tanya remains focused on her phone, Kaveri reminds her to help with the cleaning instead. Krish, however, disagrees, arguing that since they haven’t brought any embarrassment to the family, they shouldn’t be made to clean.
Abhira and Armaan Return Home to Tension
Maira and Abhira
Soon after, Armaan and Abhira return home, only to sense the uneasy atmosphere around them. Kaveri asks Vidya and Manoj to manage the situation outside the gate, while Abhira is left shocked to see offensive comments and hurtful words scribbled all over the walls.
To shield Maira from witnessing the hateful messages written on the walls, Abhira quickly covers her eyes and leads her away from the spot. When Maira innocently asks why, Abhira cleverly distracts her by asking a few playful questions, which Maira answers with a smile.
Determined to lift her daughter’s spirits, Abhira decides to spend quality time with her. Armaan then closes all the windows and doors, explaining that even their privacy is at risk as people might secretly record them. Abhira understands and agrees with his concern. Wanting to lighten the mood in the family, Kaveri comes up with the idea of hosting a pani puri party.
Abhira’s Stand Against Phone Addiction
However, Abhira soon notices that everyone is still glued to their phones instead of engaging with one another. Frustrated, she gives the family a heartfelt lecture about how excessive screen time has started to affect their lives, relationships, and peace of mind. She suggests that everyone take a complete break from their phones for a day.
Tanya hesitates, explaining that she has an important meeting lined up. Madhav advises her to use her laptop for work instead, and Tanya finally agrees, handing over her phone with the others. Krish initially resists, but Maira’s innocent request makes him surrender his device too.
Fun and Laughter at the Pani Puri Party
Pani Puri Party
The Poddars then gear up for their pani puri party, with Armaan and Abhira joining in the fun. Maira is chosen as the judge for the competition. Meanwhile, Kiara appears troubled, thinking about Abhir. She confides in Charu, wondering if she should be worried. When Abhir tries to call her, she abruptly disconnects the call, unable to face him.
Elsewhere, Tanya successfully carries out her meeting with Sid and Varun. The two express excitement over her decision to invest in their venture. Tanya, assuming they create funny and dance-related content, casually brings it up, but Sid and Varun cleverly change the subject. Just then, Abhira calls Tanya to join the pani puri contest, and she rushes to be part of the fun.
The Poddars form pairs and begin their friendly pani puri challenge. Laughter fills the room as everyone competes with enthusiasm, and Maira, the judge, ultimately declares herself the winner. Pleased with the lighthearted atmosphere, Kaveri tells Abhira to continue guiding Maira to stay confident in life, adding that humility will naturally follow. Despite the cheerful moments, Kiara remains preoccupied with thoughts of Abhir and the uncertainty surrounding their bond.
Precap for the Next Episode
In the precap of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, Sanjay confronts the Poddars, pointing out that the same controversial video of Abhira and Armaan is still circulating on social media, with people continuing to post indecent comments. Abhira questions why Sanjay is even reading such remarks and explains that everyone has the choice to ignore unwanted content online.
Sanjay then expresses his frustration, saying that their firm’s clients are unhappy and don’t want to associate with a company once linked to Abhira and Armaan. In response, Abhira asks what solution he suggests, to which Sanjay insists that they should apologise publicly. However, Abhira firmly refuses, saying there’s no reason for her and Armaan to apologise when they are innocent.
