Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai 12th December 2025 Written Update: Abhir’s Entry.
The episode starts with a tense moment. Abhira looks at her phone as Abhir’s call keeps coming. She doesn’t pick up. It’s not anger—she just can’t handle another problem right now. While she is lost in her own thoughts, Armaan comes in quietly. He doesn’t lecture or accuse—he simply stands as someone who finally sees how drained she is. Abhira tells him to blame her openly since everyone else already is. Armaan pulls her into a hug, a rare moment of grounding amid the storm. For a few seconds, the world looks softer.
But back in the Poddar house, softness is nowhere to be found. Manisha storms into Kaveri’s room, breathless with accusations. She claims Abhira is plotting with Abhir to trap Kiara and used the night to sneak him into Kiara’s bedroom. Kiara steps in firmly and says she didn’t even know Abhir was coming. Yet Manisha continues, determined to paint Abhira as the mastermind. Kiara finally snaps, asking why Manisha has turned against Abhira so suddenly. Instead of answering, Manisha shifts her anger back onto Kiara, as if the girl hasn’t suffered enough.
Tanya intervenes, asking how much more they want Kiara to cry. Manoj warns her to stay out of family matters, but Tanya refuses. She says someone needs to stand by Kiara since her own parents are too busy pointing fingers. Manoj retorts harshly, reminding Tanya that Kiara won’t give her baby to her. Sanjay joins, tempers rise, and soon Madhav steps in to stop the chaos. But Manoj’s frustration spills over as he blames Abhira for dragging the family into this mess.
Manisha, overwhelmed with fear and embarrassment, goes a step too far. She declares that babies bring joy, yet Kiara’s baby has only brought fights. She blames the unborn child. Kaveri snaps instantly, telling her not to speak another word against the baby. Kiara hears every word and breaks. She tells Manisha to curse the baby more if that’s what she wants and announces she is leaving. She cannot watch the Poddars fight because of her.
She storms out despite Tanya’s attempts to stop her. Krish warns Tanya not to chase Kiara when her own parents have turned their backs. His voice trembles with helplessness. He may not say it aloud, but Kiara leaving feels like a bitter defeat.
Abhira and Armaan see Kiara running out of the Poddar gates and immediately chase after her. Krish, anxiously pacing back at home, receives an unknown call. Tanya asks about it, but Krish lashes out, still hurt by her lies and the pressure of the stay order. Sanjay promises he is working on it, but Krish pushes him to hurry. It’s the first time Krish looks rattled—Kiara’s pain has begun affecting his judgment.
Meanwhile, Abhira and Armaan track Kiara to a bus stand. Kiara sits alone, crying into her hands. She admits she wants to take a step closer to Abhir, but her past burns her like a wound she never healed from. She doesn’t know how to trust again. Armaan and Abhira sit beside her, not forcing decisions, just offering presence. Together, they gently bring her home.
Back at the Poddar house, the tension snaps like electric wire. Manisha tells Madhav to use his police authority to find Kiara. Kajal accuses Manisha of dramatics, saying that instead of stopping Kiara earlier, she was too busy cursing the baby. The accusation becomes another spark in the already burning room—until Abhira and Armaan return with Kiara.
Abhir rushes toward Kiara desperately. But Manisha and Manoj block him with their scolding. It is Abhira who tries to stand beside Abhir, but he stops her gently. He doesn’t want her blamed anymore. He tells the family he will not leave without Kiara. Finally, Kiara looks at him directly, no escape left, and says they should talk right here—in front of everyone.
She lays down two harsh conditions. If she marries Abhir, she will abort the baby. If she keeps the baby, she will raise it alone and leave Abhir forever. The room freezes. Abhir’s face changes instantly. He feels broken that the woman he loves is ready to give up either their child or their relationship, depending on what she thinks will hurt less.
Abhir tells her he cannot choose either. He says she can raise the baby by herself if she wants. He won’t force himself on her. Then he turns away, as he always does when she pushes him. Abhira tries to stop him, begging him not to give up. But Abhir is done hurting her and hurting Kiara. He decides to walk away.
The episode ends with two hearts going different ways—one leaves because he loves too much, and the other stays because she is too afraid.
