In tonight’s Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode, Abhira finally decides to let go of her long-standing search for Pookie. Just as she is about to destroy the diary that holds memories of her daughter, Vidya intervenes. She reminds Abhira that she has been holding onto hope for the past seven years and shouldn’t be so quick to give up.
Overwhelmed with guilt, Abhira confesses that she feels like a failure, not only because she couldn’t find Pookie but also for losing her temper at Maira. She believes she wasn’t a good mother, which is why her daughter was separated from her in the first place. Vidya and Kaveri break down in tears and embrace Abhira, assuring her that fate will reunite them with Pookie one day.
Meanwhile, a shattered Kiara returns home and breaks down in Armaan’s arms. Concerned, Armaan asks her what’s wrong. Kiara emotionally says, “We were six… now only four remain.” Armaan presses her to explain, sensing there’s more to the story. Just as Kiara is about to reveal Charu’s truth, Abhir steps in and stops her. Armaan gently tells Kiara that even though Charu was her closest confidante, she can now share everything with him. Kiara holds back tears.
As the wedding preparations begin, Abhira and Anshuman start getting ready. Krish hands over the scarf to Armaan, asking him to pass it to Anshuman. Internally, Krish feels a bitter satisfaction, believing today marks Armaan’s ultimate loss, he is about to lose Abhira forever.
Abhir asks Kiara to get dressed for the occasion. Kiara, still haunted by Charu’s death, says she can’t pretend to be happy. But Abhir urges her to participate for her sister’s sake. Kiara, visibly moved, agrees. Abhir gently tells her to hold back her sorrow until the wedding is over.
While Abhira gets ready with help from Kaveri, Vidya, and Manisha, her thoughts drift to Armaan. Meanwhile, Anshuman is assisted by Kajal and Tanya. Tanya remarks that their late parents would have been proud to see him today. Kajal encourages the siblings to consider her as family. Just then, Tanya realises that Anshuman’s scarf is missing. Armaan hands it over, silently watching the man set to marry the woman he still loves.
As Armaan gazes at Abhira’s mangalsutra, he reflects on her strength—how she continues to wear the symbol of their broken marriage. He believes she deserves a fresh start and happiness, even if it’s without him. Meanwhile, Abhira spots Armaan’s ring but chooses not to return it. Armaan quietly holds on to Abhira’s mangalsutra, keeping it with him.
Tanya frantically looks for Abhira’s mangalsutra and worries that Anshuman will blame her for the carelessness. Manisha and Vidya try to calm her down. Tanya insists that its safety was her responsibility. Manisha and Vidya decide to help her recover it.
Later, Tanya confronts Armaan, accusing him of not being trustworthy. Despite her doubts, Armaan promises to find the mangalsutra. Vidya and Manisha confront him too, questioning his decision to let go of Abhira so easily. As the varmala ceremony begins with Abhira, Anshuman, Krish, and Tanya dancing together, Kaveri notices something odd in Anshuman’s behaviour. However, Kajal brushes off her suspicion.
In a private moment, Vidya and Manisha urge Armaan to stop the wedding. Armaan refuses, reminding them that Abhira stood by Vidya when no one else did. He believes Anshuman is a better match for Abhira now. But Manisha points out that Armaan is still holding onto Abhira’s mangalsutra—a sign that destiny hasn’t given up on them yet.
Soon after, Armaan finds the missing mangalsutra on Anshuman’s side, leaving him stunned. It hits him that fate might be pointing him toward Abhira once more.
