Today's episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai starts with Kartik(Mohsin Khan) and Naira(Shivangi Joshi) riding to the building. Swarna is frustrated that she is being forced to go for the marriage function where the Singhania's will also be present. Swarna thinks that Manish is being stubborn and he does not understand that she does not want to be reminded of anything related to Naira and the incident that took Shubham away from them. Manish walks in and tells Swarna that in two years he has listened to everything Swarna wished for and now this time at least he wants her to listen to him.

Sulekha is busy planning a party for Luv-Kush who have been away from home for so long, and now Sulekha wants to make sure that they do have a good time when they are home. Swarna walks in and says that there can be no parties at held in the house and she sends the planner away. This makes Sulekha very sad. Kartik reaches the sea shell apartments, and so does Naira. They do not see each other and Kartik takes the lift before Naira can reach it. Later Naira takes the stairs, and Kartik's lift gets stuck midway.

Naira notices this, and she calls out for help. She informs the security about the lift being stuck. The guard arrives, and they manage to get Kartik out, but before Naira sees him, she walks away assured that the man in the lift is safe. Meanwhile, Swarna is trying to contact Kartik desperately. Swarna finally calls the driver and finds out that Kartik is at Sea Shell Apartments. Swarna asks Manish if he sends Kartik on some errand. Manish is happy and thinks that a miracle should happen.

Naira reaches home and informs Naitik that she has got her admissions and Naitik is elated. He makes Naira have some sweets, and she has a very blank expression. Naitik later shares with Chitti that he just hopes he could take Naira back to her happiness which is with Kartik. Sulekha confronts Swarna for not trying to see anyone else's point of view. She asks Swarna if Luv and Kush do not have any right on this house.

Swarna says that she is scared for the children's safety and she does not want that they should be left unattended to during a party. Manish and Akhilesh hear this confrontation and decide to speak to their respective spouses. Manish tries knocking some sense into Swarna and says that she is just being too stubborn and that everyone is sad about Shubham, but everyone is trying to keep things unbroken.

Swarna says that Manish does not blame Naira for what happened and this is wrong. Manish still does not believe that Naira is wrong and asks Swarna to be less self-centred. Sulekha tells Akhilesh that she has been adjusting to Swarna's demands for so long and at least at times hopes that Swarna would see other's feelings too. She says that Swarna has lost one son and now she will soon lose Kartik also as they can all see how Kartik has changed.
