On the 17th of August 2024, the episode of Yeh Hai Chahatein begins with a tense atmosphere in the kitchen where Pradyumna approaches Kaashvi. He assures her that he won’t let anything bad happen to her. Meanwhile, Arjun is increasingly anxious, questioning Devansh about the delay in the doctor’s arrival. Devansh quickly contacts the doctor and hands the phone over to Arjun, who explains the critical conditions of both Kaashvi and Meera. The doctor, en route, reveals he has only one dose of the antidote.
Arjun, in his desperation, insists the doctor administer the antidote to Kaashvi. He then carries Meera and informs Mahendra that he is taking her to the hospital. This action deeply hurts Kaashvi, who begins to believe that Arjun only cares about Meera. Her distress overwhelms her, and she loses consciousness just as the doctor arrives. Pradyumna, desperate to save Kaashvi, urges the doctor to act quickly.
At the hospital, Arjun explains everything to the doctor, who reassures him that there is no need to worry. Despite the reassurances, Arjun prays fervently for Meera and her unborn baby’s safety.
Later, Kaashvi regains consciousness and finds herself in the hospital. Pradyumna, who stayed by her side, informs her that he brought her to the hospital following the doctor’s instructions. Kaashvi, concerned about her baby, anxiously asks about its condition. Pradyumna reassures her that the baby is fine, and Kaashvi thanks him for saving her child. Pradyumna, in turn, praises her for her bravery, reminding her that she saved many lives. He encourages her to rest before leaving the room.
Meanwhile, Meera, who has learned that her baby is safe, discovers that Kaashvi is in ward number 10. Concerned, she visits Kaashvi to check on her, and Kaashvi nods weakly in response to Meera’s questions about her well-being. However, the nurse soon asks Meera to leave, and it is then that Kaashvi learns of Meera’s pregnancy. Misunderstanding the situation, Kaashvi becomes convinced that Meera is carrying Arjun’s child.
Later, when Arjun visits Kaashvi, she confronts him, asking why he is there. Arjun tries to explain that he was worried about her and their baby, but Kaashvi, still hurt from the morning’s events, accuses him of not caring for her earlier. She is unaware that Arjun had instructed the doctor to prioritize her. She bitterly recalls how she saw him choose Meera over her and bluntly states that she knows Meera is pregnant with his child. Arjun is shocked by her accusation.
Kaashvi’s anger boils over as she accuses Arjun of leaving her to die. She demands to know how he would react if she were pregnant with his child. Arjun, who knows he cannot abandon Meera, realizes it’s better if Kaashvi despises him. Coldly, he tells her that she is right; he does love Meera and their baby, and that’s why he saved them. He then wishes her all the best for her future, to which Kaashvi responds by telling him to leave. As he exits, Pradyumna, who witnesses Kaashvi’s tears, concludes that Arjun is not worthy of her love.
Afterward, Meera questions Arjun about whether he saw Kaashvi. Arjun lies, claiming he did not. Deep down, he knows Meera is unaware that her father blackmailed him into marrying her, a secret that weighs heavily on him.
Pradyumna, ever supportive, takes Kaashvi home. Kaashvi is overjoyed to see her family waiting for her, thanks to Pradyumna’s efforts. Dadi, noticing how attentively Pradyumna cares for Kaashvi, suggests that the two should marry.
The episode ends on this note, with the preview hinting at further complications. Arjun finally confesses to Meera about Kaashvi’s misunderstanding, and Meera advises him to tell Kaashvi the truth. However, in the meantime, Kaashvi agrees to marry Pradyumna. Romila, seizing the opportunity, informs Arjun’s family of Kaashvi’s decision to marry Pradyumna, setting the stage for even more drama in the upcoming episodes.
