Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai Today Episode 31 July 2026
Today’s episode begins with Arman serving tea to Abhira. Looking at the sky, Abhira smiles. Arman asks why she is smiling when he expected her to be upset after everything that happened today. Abhira admits she was upset, but then realized she is surrounded by a big family that loves her. Arman teases her for realizing it so late. Abhira says she had forgotten, but Arman reminded her once again. Arman promises to love her even in their old age, and the couple happily imagines how they will express their love when they grow old.
Just then, Arman remembers that it is Shivani’s birthday. Abhira is surprised. At the same time, Vidya notices Madhav looking restless. Madhav says his heart keeps telling him that today is a special day, but he cannot remember why. Vidya asks him to calm down.
Arman tells Abhira how he used to celebrate Shivani’s birthday alone every year. Abhira decides that this time they will celebrate it with Myra and Mukti. Arman reveals that although Myra knows about Shivani, she does not know the complete truth. He worries that if Myra learns everything, she may start hating Kaveri and Vidya. However, Abhira believes Myra deserves to know the truth and remains determined to celebrate Shivani’s birthday.
Meanwhile, Vidya asks Madhav to have something to drink, hoping it will make him feel better. Madhav says he feels fine now but is still unable to remember why the day feels so important. Arman thanks Abhira for planning the celebration, but she playfully asks him to stop thanking her over and over again.
Later, Kaveri and Vidya decide to cook for Arman. They are surprised to find Arman and Abhira already busy in the kitchen. Vidya asks why Abhira has prepared so many dishes. Abhira reveals that it is Shivani’s birthday, leaving Vidya stunned. Madhav and Vidya avoid talking to each other, making Arman and Abhira feel bad for them.
Myra and Mukti notice the tense atmosphere and ask why Vidya and Madhav seem so sad. They also wonder why Abhira is dressed up. Abhira asks both of them to get ready, promising that all their questions will soon be answered.
The children become curious about the suspense. Meanwhile, Abhira decides to feed the poor in Shivani’s memory before performing a puja. Kaveri objects and asks Arman not to hold the puja at the Poddar house. Arman explains that this is why he never celebrated Shivani’s birthday there. Abhira tries to convince Kaveri, saying Shivani deserves peace. As Vidya tries to leave, Abhira stops her and urges her to accept Shivani instead of feeling insecure now that she is no longer alive. Hurt by her words, Vidya walks away.
Later, Arman and Abhira distribute food to the poor. During the event, a mysterious woman tries to approach Myra. Frightened, Myra calls out to Arman and Abhira, but the woman suddenly disappears. Soon, Disha, Aryan, and Krish arrive. Disha informs Abhira that they failed to convince the elders to join the celebration.
Back at the Poddar house, Manisha asks Kaveri if they can attend Shivani’s birthday rituals with Arman and Abhira. Kajal refuses, saying they cannot hurt Vidya’s feelings. Manoj points out that Arman is also upset, but Sanjay sarcastically asks him to go and upset Vidya instead.
Meanwhile, Myra asks Arman about the special prayers. Abhira introduces Shivani to Myra and Mukti and tells them about her. Myra assures Arman that he will never have to celebrate Shivani’s birthday alone again. Aryan also reveals that Abhira personally arranged for Shivani’s photograph to arrive on time for the ceremony.
In a surprising twist, the Poddar family, along with Kaveri, finally arrives to join Shivani’s veneration. Arman and Abhira are left completely shocked by their unexpected presence.
