The Monday episode of Rajan Shahi's "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai" started with Harshvardhan telling Akshara that she should adapt to the living style of the Birlas now. She and Manjari then serve tea to everyone and Mahima taunts them that now Manjari will have Akshara's company at home. She tells them that since they don't work, they can chill at home. Aanand asks them what's the plan for the day and Manjari tells him that she was thinking of doing Akshara's rituals as they couldn't do it before. She said she wanted to call the Goenkas as well. Harshvardhan tells her that they are already physically tired because of the wedding and continuing the rituals will make them mentally tired too. Mahima tells them that they have an important meeting to which Aanand tells her that it's online and they can do it anywhere and asks Manjari to start the preparation. They also say that they need to talk about the music department too and they will do it in private.
Paarth then asks Akshara and Manjari to join them for breakfast. As soon as Manjari joins them, Harshvardhan reacts and asks her to get something for him. Just then Abhimanyu comes and breaks his plate. Seeing him Harshvardhan leaves the table but Manjari follows him. Abhimanyu tells him that he should talk respectfully to his mother and Harshvardhan tells him that she is his wife too and it's none of his business how he talks to her. Harshvardhan also taunts him that he wonders from where he has learnt all this to which Abhimanyu replies that it's from him as he grew up seeing how he talks to his mother. Harshvardhan then tells him that he doesn't know how to talk to his elders and soon Akshara will also talk to them in the same way. Abhimanyu asks him to not drag Akshara in this. Aanand gets angry and asks them to stop their argument. Shefali then comes to Akshara and tells her that it's a usual thing in their house and soon she will get used to it. Manjari tells her that she will send her breakfast in her room.
Akshara is upset with what she saw and Abhimanyu tries to cheer her up. He dances to "Right here right now" for her. Later, Abhimanyu apologises to her and tells her that he knows she did not expect this but he and Harshavrdhan have always shared a rocky relationship. Neil then comes to their room and they realise that they have to get ready for the rituals before the Goenkas come. Abhimanyu waits for Akshara to come and is in awe of her. He sees Akshara running towards him but realises she was going to the Goenkas. Akshara hugs her family and cries and Aanand asks her to not cry so much or else the Goenkas will think that they have tortured the new bride. Harshavrdhan then taunts them that it's surprising that though they are a business family, they are always available for such things. Manish tells him it's all about priorities.
They then invite them inside. Aanand comes to sit with them and Manish tells him that they tried their best and apologises if something was not as per their expectations at the wedding, but he was surprised to see that Aanand did not pay attention to what he said and instead was busy on his phone asking someone to send the link for the meeting.
In the upcoming episode, we will see that during their meeting Harshvardhan, Mahima and Aanand decide that the music department in the hospital would be shut down. Abhimanyu tells Harshvardhan that he won't let him control Akshara's dreams and ambitions just like he controlled his mother's. They get into an argument and Akshara gives them her decision.
