In a bold and refreshing turn of events, Rajan Shahi’s long-running hit show Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai has taken a dramatic 7-year leap, bringing new faces, fresh storylines, and emotional upheavals to the forefront. The leap, unveiled in the show’s latest promo, promises a rollercoaster ride for fans as beloved characters navigate life-altering changes.
The promo reveals a striking transformation in Armaan’s (Rohit Purohit) life. Once a dedicated lawyer, Armaan has left behind the world of advocacy and taken up an entirely new profession — he is now a Radio Jockey. The shift hints at a major emotional fallout, and viewers learn that he is now separated from Abhira (Samridhii Shukla). Their once passionate relationship has hit a crossroads, and the couple is now living apart.
Adding to the intrigue is the introduction of their daughter, Pookie, who is now all grown up. Her entry marks a new generational arc in the series, raising questions about her upbringing, loyalties, and relationship with her estranged parents.
With the leap come three new pivotal entries: Urva Rumani, Sushee Parashar, and Ruheen Ali Khan. Though details of their characters remain under wraps, sources suggest they will play instrumental roles in shaping the next chapter of the story. Their involvement is expected to bring new dynamics and emotional depth, shaking up the existing equations within the show.
Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, one of Indian television’s most iconic dramas, has consistently evolved over the years, blending tradition with modern storytelling. This 7-year leap appears to be another strategic move to keep the narrative fresh and engaging, while exploring themes of identity, family, and second chances.
Fans are eagerly awaiting how Armaan and Abhira’s journey unfolds, and what the future holds for Pookie. With new characters and unexpected twists, the show promises a compelling mix of drama, emotion, and renewal.
