In the latest episode of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, the dynamic between Jenny and Sumit takes another unpredictable twist when Sumit’s mother, Sahna, decides it’s time for Jenny to embrace Indian culture in her own way — by joining her in daily yoga sessions. What begins as a simple cultural bonding activity quickly spirals into one of the most awkward yet surprisingly heartwarming storylines the couple has faced. For long-time fans, this moment encapsulates everything that makes 90 Day Fiancé so compelling: cross-cultural clashes, family expectations, personal insecurities, and the quest to find love that defies every obstacle.

Jenny, the 65-year-old American woman who moved to India to be with her much younger husband, Sumit, has never quite managed to win over his traditional mother. From the very beginning, Sahna viewed Jenny not only as an outsider but as someone fundamentally unsuited for her son — too old, too foreign, and too resistant to Indian customs. Despite Sumit and Jenny’s legal marriage and years together, Sahna continues to make her disapproval known in ways both subtle and dramatic. This time, her disapproval manifests through “cultural enlightenment,” as she insists Jenny learn yoga and meditation under her supervision.

When the episode opens, Sahna is seen rolling out yoga mats on the courtyard floor, the morning sun rising over the Delhi neighborhood. Jenny, wearing loose pants and a nervous smile, looks visibly uncomfortable. “I’m not exactly a yoga person,” she admits to producers in her confessional. “I’ve tried stretching, but I’m more of a coffee-and-relaxing kind of woman.” Meanwhile, Sahna declares that yoga will help Jenny achieve “balance, discipline, and a cleaner mind” — a not-so-subtle jab at her perceived lack of composure. Sumit, caught between his wife and his mother, awkwardly tries to mediate, telling Jenny, “It’s just exercise, babe. Maybe you’ll even like it.”

The lesson begins with simple breathing exercises, but it doesn’t take long for tension — both literal and emotional — to rise. Jenny struggles to maintain even basic poses, groaning as Sahna scolds her form. “No, no, no! You must stretch your spine like this!” she insists, demonstrating with impressive flexibility. Jenny’s attempt to imitate ends in near disaster as she topples over, breaking into laughter that Sahna does not share. The cultural divide is glaring: Jenny sees the moment as humorous and lighthearted, while Sahna interprets it as disrespect and laziness.

As the session continues, Sahna grows more intense. She instructs Jenny to “find her inner peace,” something that Jenny finds ironic given the disapproving stare directed at her. “It’s hard to be peaceful when your mother-in-law is glaring at you like you’re doing everything wrong,” Jenny jokes to the camera. Viewers watching the episode couldn’t help but sympathize — after all, yoga is supposed to bring calm, but in the Sharma household, it only seems to bring chaos.

However, the turning point comes when Sahna decides to lead Jenny in a guided meditation. The energy in the courtyard shifts. The background noises of honking cars fade as both women close their eyes. For the first time, Sahna’s tone softens. She tells Jenny to breathe deeply and let go of her frustration. “In India, we learn patience through practice,” she says gently. Jenny follows along, hesitant but willing. The moment stretches into silence, and something unexpected happens — both women begin to relax. When they open their eyes, Jenny looks at Sahna and says quietly, “That actually felt… nice.” Sahna, without smiling, simply nods. It’s not a breakthrough, but it’s a truce.

Later in the episode, Sumit admits in his confessional that he’s proud of both women. “They’re like fire and fire,” he laughs. “But even fire can create warmth, not just burn.” His optimism, though sometimes naive, captures the essence of their ongoing struggle — finding harmony in a relationship built on cultural contradictions. Jenny’s willingness to try yoga, even if reluctantly, becomes symbolic of her ongoing effort to fit into Sumit’s world. Meanwhile, Sahna’s decision to teach her, rather than dismiss her entirely, shows that deep down, there may be room for acceptance.

Fans have had mixed reactions to the storyline. Some found the yoga scene hilarious, calling it “classic 90 Day Fiancé tension — awkward but endearing.” Others praised Jenny for stepping out of her comfort zone. “She’s 65, living in India, and still trying to impress her mother-in-law,” one fan tweeted. “Give that woman credit!” Yet, others criticized Sahna for using yoga as a means of control rather than connection. “It’s not about health or spirituality,” another viewer wrote. “It’s about showing who’s boss.” Regardless of opinion, the scene has sparked lively debate about generational expectations, respect, and cultural adaptation in cross-border marriages.

Behind the humor and awkwardness, though, lies a deeper emotional thread. Jenny’s journey has always been about more than love — it’s about belonging. Her move to India wasn’t just a romantic gesture; it was a complete reinvention of her life. Learning yoga, no matter how begrudgingly, represents her attempt to bridge that gap between who she was and who she’s becoming. And for Sahna, who once refused to even speak to Jenny, inviting her into a morning ritual — however tense — might be the closest she’s come to acceptance.

By the end of the episode, the tone shifts toward hope. As the camera pans over the courtyard, Jenny and Sahna are seen sitting side by side, sipping tea. There’s no laughter, but there’s no arguing either — just quiet coexistence. “Maybe tomorrow we try again,” Sahna says, and Jenny replies, “I’ll be ready.” It’s a small moment, but in 90 Day Fiancé, small moments often mean everything.

The preview for next week teases more challenges: Sahna suggests a “cultural cleansing” day involving fasting and meditation, which Jenny immediately calls “a hard no.” Sumit looks nervous, realizing that his quest for family unity might once again be tested. Still, fans are hopeful that this unexpected yoga truce marks the beginning of something new.

Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that love isn’t just about romance — it’s about learning, growing, and sometimes falling over in downward dog. Jenny may never master yoga, and Sahna may never fully understand her son’s choice, but both women share something deeper now: the effort to meet each other halfway. And in the unpredictable, emotionally charged world of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, that small act of trying might just be the biggest victory of all.
