The audience thought that Kairav will bring his parents Naira (Shivangi Joshi) and Kartik (Mohsin Khan) back together in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. However, their son, Kairav has become the reason for a battle between the estranged couple. They are at loggerheads for Kairav's custody.

The makers of Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai released a new promo wherein, Kartik is seen telling Naira that after fourteen years, he is destined to live with his son, Kairav. Naira says that it's not possible for her to live in the Goenka house as Kartik is married to Vedika. Her and Kairav's presence is turning to be an obstacle for Vedika's marital relationship to bloom with Kartik. On the other hand, Naira says that she cannot even think about living without her son and that she doesn't want to take Kairav from here but living together is not possible.
