Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Written Update: Armaan Collapses After Receiving Divorce Papers! Anshuman Realizes His Feelings For Abhira
The episode begins with a heart-wrenching scene where Abhira is suffering from a high fever, being cared for by a worried Vidya. In a moment of despair, Abhira philosophically remarks that just like temporary relationships, this fever will also break. Simultaneously, a wounded and distraught Armaan is seen signing divorce papers, believing he is freeing Abhira from their seven-year-long, painful marriage. He is under the impression that the divorce papers were sent by his ex-wife, whom he believes Abhira has been waiting for all these years.
A flashback takes us to a conversation between an injured Armaan and Abhira. Abhira, wanting to understand his past for the sake of their daughter Mayra, persistently asks him about Mayra’s mother, Geetanjali. This triggers a series of emotional flashbacks for Armaan. He poetically describes Geetanjali as a vibrant, beautiful, and courageous woman who was his best friend. However, the visuals ironically show memories of his happy, carefree moments with Abhira, not Geetanjali, highlighting his deep-seated confusion and the blurring lines between his past and present.
Armaan’s flashback continues, revealing that differences in their parenting styles led to their separation. He is angry, believing that after seven years of silence, she has now sent him divorce papers. He feels it’s unfair for her to expect him to still love her.
Meanwhile, Kaveri visits Anshuman’s office. Anshuman, concerned, asks about Abhira’s well-being and why she was so stressed during their trip to Mount Abu. Kaveri breaks down, revealing (though misleadingly) that Abhira is shattered because she discovered that the man she waited seven years for is marrying someone else. This conversation deeply affects Anshuman, who is seen having an emotional outburst in his office. He realizes his feelings for Abhira are more than just friendship and that he is falling in love with her. Kaveri overhears his confession, adding another layer of complexity to the situation.
The episode reaches its climax when Dadaji hands Armaan an envelope. To his horror, Armaan discovers it contains a divorce agreement from ‘Abhira Sharma’. The shock is immense, as he believes his ex-wife, with a name so similar to his current wife’s, has finally ended their bond. Already weakened by his injuries, Armaan collapses on the floor. Mayra finds him unconscious and desperately tries to wake him. As he regains consciousness, he tearfully hugs his daughter, completely devastated by the turn of events. Vidya, witnessing this, confronts Kaveri, accusing her of destroying her son’s happiness by manipulating Abhira into this drastic step.
