Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai is a beloved Indian Hindi-language romantic family drama that premiered on January 12, 2009, airing daily at 9:30 PM on Star Plus and streaming on Disney+ Hotstar. Produced by Rajan Shahi under Director’s Kut Productions, it’s India’s longest-running TV soap, surpassing 4,800 episodes by July 2025. Set in Udaipur’s Marwari joint families, it initially followed Akshara (Hina Khan) and Naitik (Karan Mehra), evolving through generations to Naira (Shivangi Joshi), Kartik (Mohsin Khan), and now Abhira (Samridhii Shukla) and Armaan (Rohit Purohit). The fourth-generation story explores Abhira and Armaan’s turbulent love, annulled marriage, and family conflicts, with Ruhi (Garvita Sadhwani) complicating their bond. Recent episodes, like the July 20, 2025, episode 4871, feature high drama with Anshuman’s accident, Armaan’s collapse, and Abhira’s heartbreak over Pookie’s identity, peaking at 3.2 TVR. With crossovers like Anupamaa and a spin-off, Yeh Rishtey Hain Pyaar Ke, it’s lauded for its emotional depth and festive sequences but criticized on X for repetitive twists and unrealistic plots.
