YRKKH Written Update 18 September 2024: Abhira’s Heartbreaking Decision to Call Off Wedding Leaves Armaan Devastated
In the latest Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai (YRKKH) episode, aired on 18 September 2024, the storyline takes an emotional turn as Abhira faces immense personal turmoil, ultimately leading her to call off her wedding with Armaan. The episode explores deep emotional struggles, family conflicts, and the heart-wrenching consequences of societal pressures.
The episode opens with Abhira arriving at the Goenka House, where Swarna is performing the aarti. The sight of a baby Krishna photo alongside Yashoda stirs emotions in Abhira, who has been grappling with her inability to have children. As she stands there, visibly upset, Manish and Surekha take notice of her distress. Surekha quickly turns off the aarti music, but Swarna, already harboring frustration, questions why Abhira has come. Before Swarna can say more, Manish steps in, stopping her from saying anything hurtful. He instructs Surekha to take Abhira away, and Abhira, overwhelmed, is too shocked to respond. Manish reminds Swarna of the emotional burden Abhira is already carrying, asking for compassion during this difficult time.
Meanwhile, Armaan finds himself conflicted, thinking about calling Abhira. His thoughts are interrupted when he sees a pair of baby socks in his room, a reminder of the dreams he once had of starting a family. Vidya and Kaveri’s harsh words about Abhira’s inability to have children echo in his mind, and Armaan decides against contacting her. Abhira, on the other hand, is completely unraveling. She talks to her mother, recalling how excited Armaan was about having children. The weight of the family’s expectations and her own sense of failure start to crush her. In a moment of emotional vulnerability, she accidentally knocks over Akshara’s guitar, clinging to it as she cries, feeling disconnected from the family and unsure if she even deserves one.
Outside her room, Manish stands helplessly, overhearing her cries. He looks at a photo of Akshara and vows not to let Abhira suffer any longer. Inside, the family discusses Abhira’s situation. Charu asks Kaveri if she would have canceled a wedding if Kiara or she herself had faced fertility issues. The group of women agree that Abhira is being treated unfairly. Kiara speaks up, stating that women are not just meant for having children, while Kaveri, though showing some remorse, argues that societal expectations still dictate that women must give birth. Madhav suggests that it might be better for Abhira to leave, as she would face continued cruelty even if she marries Armaan. Chachi, however, insists on supporting Armaan, and a heated exchange follows, with Sanjay mocking her stance. Chachi turns the tables on Sanjay, asking how he would react if his own son faced infertility issues, exposing the deep-rooted biases within the family. Vidya remains firm, insisting that the marriage cannot happen, despite the love between Abhira and Armaan. Unbeknownst to the family, Armaan overhears the entire conversation, heartbroken by the harshness of his own relatives.
The emotional intensity heightens as Abhira begins to hallucinate, hearing a child’s voice calling her “mumma.” The hallucinations push her further into despair. She looks at a photo of herself and Armaan, recalling the happy moments they shared, their dreams of building a life together. Armaan, too, finds himself isolated, hiding in his wardrobe as he reflects on the joyful times and the painful reality that his dream of starting a family with Abhira may never come true. Kaveri knocks on his wardrobe door, reassuring him that she is not pressuring him, but subtly reminding him that Abhira cannot give him his biggest dream of having children.
Unable to bear the weight of her emotions, Abhira sends Armaan a message, asking to talk. The moment Armaan receives her message, he video calls her, and both are filled with tears as they see each other on the screen. In a heartbreaking conversation, Abhira tells Armaan that there’s nothing left to discuss. She explains that his family’s desire for his happiness has left her no choice but to break off their engagement. She tells him that while she will always love him, she cannot bear the thought of ruining his dreams or being resented by him later. This moment seals the fate of their relationship.
After the call, Armaan goes downstairs to where the family is waiting. With a heavy heart, he announces that Abhira has decided to call off the wedding. The family’s reactions are varied: Chachi is upset, Sanjay appears smug, and Ruhi, sensing an opportunity, smiles. Armaan, devastated, congratulates Vidya and Kaveri, sarcastically remarking that they got what they wanted. Kaveri, in her defense, claims that everything was done for Armaan’s happiness. Manisha, speaking up for Abhira, tells Kaveri that if they had truly accepted her, they wouldn’t have tried to change her. Vidya’s response is cold, stating that her love for her son is more important than Abhira’s happiness.
As the episode concludes, a preview hints at what’s to come. Manoj suggests that they should reconsider canceling the wedding, while Kaveri insists that it was Abhira’s decision. In a surprising turn, Armaan goes to Abhira, applies haldi on her, and tells her that he will wait for her at the wedding mandap, showing that his love for her remains steadfast. Abhira is then seen looking at a wedding lehenga given to her by Manish, who urges her to reconsider her decision, reminding her that Armaan is willing to stand by her, no matter what.
This episode leaves viewers on the edge of their seats, wondering if Abhira will change her mind or if this is truly the end of her relationship with Armaan. The deep emotional conflicts, family dynamics, and societal pressures continue to drive the drama forward, making it a must-watch for fans.
