Ultimately, he chose to rescue Daksh and the others, while Abhira ensured Ruhi’s safety.

Ruhi’s Confusion & A Looming Tragedy

As the crisis intensified, Ruhi struggled to process everything happening around her. When she questioned Rohit about a loud explosion, he reassured her that it was just a transformer blast. However, things took a darker turn when two armed goons attacked Kaveri, demanding her jewelry at knifepoint. Armaan fearlessly fought them off, saving Kaveri, who finally realized his love and protectiveness for the family.

The Family Sticks Together Amidst Uncertainty

While the Poddars tried to regroup, Ruhi’s anxiety over Rohit’s whereabouts continued to grow. Abhira comforted her with a lie, assuring her that Rohit had gone to drop Kiara and Abhir home. Trusting Abhira, Ruhi hesitated but eventually accepted the assurance.

Meanwhile, Shivani fell ill from exhaustion, prompting Rohit to rush to get water for her. Touched by their concern, Shivani blessed Armaan and Rohit, acknowledging their genuine care for her.

A Fatal Explosion & Shivani’s Death

As the family began to settle, Armaan noticed a gas leak and warned Rohit and Shivani to evacuate immediately. Just as they attempted to flee, a massive explosion rocked the area, leaving Kaveri and Abhira in shock.

The devastating news soon reached Manish, Swarna, and Surekha, who grew even more concerned. Ruhi’s restlessness intensified as she desperately sought answers about Rohit. Determined to find him herself, she prepared to leave, but Abhira intervened, calming her down and insisting that Rohit would be back soon.

Shivani’s Death Leaves the Family Shattered

As doctors fought to save Armaan and Rohit, they delivered the heartbreaking news—Shivani couldn’t be saved. Abhira was in disbelief, struggling to accept the loss, while Madhav was equally shattered. When the doctor coldly inquired about arrangements for Shivani’s last rites, Abhira lashed out, furious at the lack of sensitivity. Overcome with grief, she vowed to stand by Shivani during her final journey.

Meanwhile, Vidya was consumed by guilt, regretting her role in separating Madhav and Shivani. She realized that her past actions had kept Armaan away from Shivani, making the loss even more painful.

Precap: A Devastating Loss
