‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’: Manish spoils Akshara and Abhimanyu’s Valentine’s Day? 

The Thursday episode of Rajan Shahi’s “Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai” started with Abhimanyu telling Akshara that they need to plan something special for Anisha and Kairav. Akshara is disappointed that Abhimanyu doesn’t want to celebrate the day with her and is more focused on arranging a surprise for Kairav and Anisha. Later during breakfast she tells the family that it’s a special day not because it’s Valentine’s Day but because it’s her parents’ anniversary and Sirat’s birthday too. 

She prepares their favourite meal and serves it to everyone. She tells them that love starts from family and she is happy that they are together. Later, she tells Aarohi that she has planned something for Kairav and Anisha. Aarohi realises that Akshara has Abhimanyu and Kairav has Anisha and only she is the one alone on Valentine’s Day. She tells herself that she is not a loser. 

After breakfast, Kairav leaves for the office but Akshara asks him to drop her somewhere midway. Just then someone steals Akshara’s bag. They run behind him and he goes inside a room. Akshara stops Kairav from going inside saying there might be a gang, but Kairav still goes inside and bumps into Anisha. Abhimanyu and Akshara then close the door from outside and ask them to pour their hearts out on Valentine’s Day. They ask Anisha and Kairav not to fight but fix things between them. Abhimanyu and Akshara then leave from there. 

Abhimanyu tells Akshara that he is thirsty and goes to get some coconut water. Akshara then sees a man dressed as cupid and feels someone has arranged this surprise for their Valentine and asks him to not aim his arrow towards her. The man still hits her with his arrow and Akshara shouts “mumma”. Just then a soft pink blanket falls on her. She remembers Naira’s diary where she had mentioned about it. She then gets unicorn slippers and a bracelet with a bow on it. At last she gets kachoris which tasted the same as Naira’s. She asks the man if it was all of her, he then points towards a woman coming. Akshara then finds Manjari coming towards her. Manjari makes her wear the slippers, wraps her in the blanket, ties the bracelet and makes her eat the kachori. She tells her that though she is not her mother, she will try to become one to her. She then informs her that it was all planned by Abhimanyu and blesses them to be together always. 

Meanwhile, at the Goenka house Vansh talks to Reem and Aarohi wonders if she is the only one who is left alone on Valentine’s Day. She then hears Manish and Akhilesh talking about Akshara and Kairav. She picks up her phone and says out loud that Akshara and Kairav are at a garden. Manish and Akhilesh wonder what they are doing there. 

At the garden, once Manjari leaves, Akshara thanks Abhimanyu for the beautiful surprise and tells him that he deserves a punishment. She takes him to a room where they see a prince and princess puppet. 

In the upcoming episodes, we will see that Manish comes to the garden and spoils Akshara and Abhimanyu’s Valentine’s Day plans. He takes her home but Abhimanyu follows them. Manish asks his guards to close the gate but Abhimanyu stops them from doing so. To know what happens next, keep watching “Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai”.
