Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is gearing up for a refreshing and romantic twist that has already started winning the hearts of viewers. The show’s lead pair, Rohit Purohit and Samridhii Shukla, who play Armaan and Abhira, are all set to begin a new chapter in their love story — this time, in a college setting.
In the latest episode, viewers saw Abhira joining an advanced law course at a college in Jaipur. Meanwhile, Myra begins to sense that her parents — Armaan and Abhira — are together only in a formal way. Wanting to reunite them emotionally, she wishes to see her parents married again. However, Kaveri and Vidya are completely against this idea and decide to stop Myra from doing anything that could bring Armaan and Abhira closer.
As the story progresses, Kiara suggests that Myra should send Armaan to Jaipur as well. Following this, Armaan decides to enroll in the same college where Abhira is studying — setting the stage for a second innings of college romance between the two.
This upcoming track promises a mix of nostalgia, youthfulness, and rekindled love, as Armaan tries to win Abhira’s heart once again. Fans are particularly excited to see how the story unfolds as the duo’s chemistry returns in a lighter, more playful college backdrop.
Adding to the buzz, both Rohit Purohit and Samridhii Shukla have undergone a stunning makeover for this phase of the story. Armaan’s look has been revamped with a casual college-boy vibe — featuring baggy jeans, rugged jackets, and stylish sunglasses. Abhira, on the other hand, sports a graceful college-girl look with long kurtas, palazzos, stoles, minimal makeup, and elegant earrings.
While fans are loving the new track and the visual transformation of the lead pair, there’s also hope that this storyline will help improve the show’s ratings. Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai has been struggling with TRPs lately, with the latest figure reportedly at 1.8. The makers are banking on this youthful college romance to revive audience engagement and bring back the old charm of the show.
Whether this refreshing new phase will help Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai climb up the TRP charts remains to be seen — but for now, fans are thrilled to see Armaan and Abhira’s love story rekindle in a brand-new college setup.
