Today's episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai starts with Rajeshwari, Kirti and Naksh waiting at the court as they miss seeing Kartik(Mohsin Khan) and Naira(Shivangi Joshi) walking down the stairs.
They both walk out onto the road and go separate direction as they are lost. Rajeshwari is convinced by Kirti and Naksh to return home as they suspect that the couple must have reached home.
Rajeshwari suddenly spots the lawyers and walks to them. They ask the lawyers about Naira and Kartik; they come to know that the divorce has happened. This breaks the trio as they cannot believe it happened.
Rajeshwari asks the two why she was never informed about the divorce before. She says that the entire family knew yet no one did anything to resolve issues.
Kirti says that they should not have left it to Naira and Kartik and they should have done something. Naira and Kartik meet again on the road as Kartik invites Naira for a cup of tea.
They sit at the coffee shop as they both realise how well aware each is of the other's likes and dislikes. They remember their old times together and imagine each other in happy times.
Naira helps Kartik with his ATM pin, and the storekeepers observe how the wives are always good at these things. Rajeshwari tells Naksh that she wants to meet Naira and Kartik now.
Swarna tells the family that she spoke to the lawyer and the divorce has come through. The family is left devastated by this. Naitik gets a panic attack as he gorges on chocolates.
Manish is broken as he cries. Naira and Kartik listen to a puppet show and realise that the mistake was not one person's, it was both of their responsibility. They both cry and regret their decision. They both run to find the other when they come face to face with Rajeshwari.
