Check out the written episode 1938 update of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, airing on 21 February 2026.
Today’s episode begins with Abhira (Samriddhi Shukla) seeing Maira in the hostel. She comes near to see her while Maira talks to her friend and checks the notice board. Abhira comes near Maira, but before she could see, Abhira runs away. Coming downstairs, Abhira cries alone, missing Maira, and the flashbacks consume her with pain.
Coming back home, Abhira talks to Maira’s photo and records a note, adding to the thousands of notes that she couldn’t gather the courage to send to Maira since Vidya told her clearly that seeing Abhira is not good for Maira. On the other hand, Mukti takes the things Abhira sent for her, while Maira mistakenly kicks Mukti’s stuff yet again, creating an issue between the two.
However, before the issue escalates, Maira is called with her full name, which leads to Mukti seeing flashbacks, leading to a panic attack. Mukti struggles while Abhira emphasizes that she cannot come in front of Maira for he sake, while she cannot let Mukti know the truth for her sake. Maira tries to help Mutki, but she refuses.
Mutki comes into her room and reads the paper Abhira gave, which helps her calm down. Armaan (Rohit Purohit) tries to sleep at home, only to see Abhira in front of him. Abhriaa confronts Armaan for always making the wrong decision. Armaan refuses to accept it, but Abhira tells the truth: he earlier tried to raise Maira, but failed, and Maira is still unhappy and misses her mother.
At the same time, Abhira, while working, imagines Armaan blaming her for Maira’s pain. Armaan calls Abhira the worst mother. Armaan and Abhira struggle on their own, unaware of the truth and of how Vidya planned to separate Abhira from Maira and Armaan.
What will happen next?
