The latest episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai (18th August 2025) unfolds with deep emotions, heartfelt conversations, and unexpected twists. The focus remains on Abhira, Armaan, and Myra as relationships are tested and decisions questioned.
Myra Questions Abhira About Armaan
The episode begins with Myra asking Abhira if she is still upset with Armaan for taking her to Mount Abu. Myra gently reminds her that despite everything, Armaan brought her back safely and requests Abhira not to marry Anshuman.
Abhira responds with a striking example. She compares her life to a train that has already left the station, explaining that chasing it now would only bring pain. This symbolizes her belief that her happiness with Armaan is gone forever. Although she hides her tears, Myra notices her pain.
Armaan and Anshuman’s Emotional Conversation
Elsewhere, Anshuman meets Armaan, leading to an emotional exchange. Anshuman assures Armaan that he will never try to take his place in Myra’s life.
Armaan, with teary eyes, recalls sweet memories of his daughter and shares details of her likes and dislikes with Anshuman. He tells him that with time, Myra will accept him as a father figure. Every father, Armaan says, fears the day his daughter will leave him, and for him, that moment has come sooner than expected. He requests Anshuman to always protect and love Myra.
Myra Brings Joy to Abhira
Later, Myra surprises Abhira with flowers and serves her breakfast lovingly. She talks about Armaan, confessing that while she will miss him, she feels happy staying with Abhira. This innocent love softens Abhira’s heart, even though she hides her emotions.
Soon after, Vidya invites Abhira to the Janmashtami celebrations at the Poddar house. Abhira declines, sending Abhir and Myra instead. Myra questions her decision, but Abhira avoids answering. At home, Armaan asks Vidya not to force Abhira to forgive him, urging her to let things unfold naturally.
Janmashtami Preparations at the Poddar House
As Janmashtami preparations begin at the Poddar house, Myra asks Anshuman to tie the handi. She also tells him that Armaan had shared how sad Abhira was after losing her. Myra decides she wants to live with Abhira, even though she will miss Armaan deeply. Abhira overhears this emotional confession and is touched.
Meanwhile, Kiara helps Abhir with a photoshoot, reminding him that she is his manager, which irritates Abhira. Tanya and Krish argue in excitement, while Kaveri happily joins the festive spirit.
Finally, Abhira and Anshuman arrive at the Poddar house in disguise. Myra playfully showers flowers on Kaveri, leaving her curious about who did it.
Precap: A Major Turning Point
In the upcoming episode, Abhira tells Vidya that she has forgiven Armaan. Armaan explains that Abhira believes Myra needs both her parents. Vidya urges him to reunite with Abhira before she marries Anshuman. Meanwhile, Abhir questions Abhira if she truly wants to marry Anshuman.
