The episode of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai starts with Kartik worrying about seeing his family. Manish says Sirat made promises about Kairav, but now he thinks she forgot about her promise. Ranvir says Sirat has proved that she cares for Kairav and will stick to her promise, she will stay with them until Kairav lets her go. Manish says Sirat cannot leave as she doesn’t have any house. Kartik asks Sirat and Ranvir to stay quiet and let him handle it. Manish says he asked Kartik not to get Sirat home, but he did not listen and now when Kairav has attached with Sirat, Kartik is letting Sirat go. Manish asks Kartik how will Kairav feel when he comes to know that Sirat is leaving him and marrying her boyfriend. Kairav hears their conversation; he drops his painting and runs outside the hotel.
Sirat sees Kairav leaving and calls him. Kartik says Kairav heard which means he heard their conversation. Kairav runs outside the hotel recollecting Manish’s conversation with Kartik and cries. Sirat and Kartik look for Kairav. Ranvir thinks he came to make Sirat happy, but he messed up the situation. Ranvir says he will make things right.
Kartik and Sirat come outside the hotel to search for Kairav. Ranvir gets Kairav back on his bike. Kairav hugs Kartik and goes to his room. Suwarna asks Ranvir where he found Kairav. Ranvir says he also used to run away from his parents and hide at some particular places, so he just went searching at some similar places and found Kairav. Sirat says she will talk to Kairav. Kartik says he will talk to Kairav in the morning.
The next morning, Kartik goes to Kairav and asks if he remembers Naira gave him a storybook where they were in Mumbai. Kairav says he read all the stories and asks Kartik what he wants to know. Kartik asks Kairav if they have a good friend and that friend is in love with someone and wants to marry him, what they can do. Kairav says they should let them go. Kartik says Sirat loves someone and wants to marry him. Sirat comes to Kairav and says she loves him and will always come to meet him wherever Kairav will miss her.
Kairav asks Sirat to call the person whom she loves as he wants to see if that man can keep Sirat happy as Kartik kept her. Ranvir comes to meet Kairav. Sirat says Kairav will take Ranvir’s test and if Kairav will approve then they can get married. Kairav asks Ranvir questions and Ranvir answers them all right. Lastly, Kairav asks if Ranvir can keep Sirat happy as Kartik kept her. Ranvir says he will give more happiness than Kartik gave her. Kairav says Ranvir has passed the test.
Later, Kartik calls Sirat and asks her to eat sweets. Sirat says she like sweets but cannot eat them as she needs to focus on fitness. Kartik explains Sirat that how she feels when sweets are in front of her but she cannot eat, the same way Kairav feels as he loves her, but cannot be with her. Sirat says she can leave today itself. Kartik says she has booked a hostel for Sirat which has boxing coaching. Sirat agrees to stay in the hostel. Kartik says Sirat and Kairav need to learn to stay separate.
