After 16 years on the cobbles, Coronation Street favourite Aadi Alahan is preparing for his emotional and scandal-filled exit—and it’s a storyline that’s already got viewers on edge.
Adam Hussain, who plays Dev Alahan’s troubled son, has confirmed his departure from the ITV soap. But now, new spoilers suggest exactly how he’ll go—and it’s anything but quiet.
The writing has been on the wall for weeks. Aadi’s world has crumbled around him: mounting debt, reckless choices, and a devastating drug incident that nearly cost Lauren Bolton her life. And now, as Dev’s wedding to Bernie Winter approaches, the pressure finally explodes.
Everything begins to unravel during what should be a joyful celebration. Aunty Rani, always the practical matriarch, arrives with an offer to fund the wedding—but also a desire to keep strict tabs on the spending. That’s bad news for Aadi, who has been quietly cutting corners to repay money he’s secretly lost.
As the ceremony nears, tragedy strikes. Bernie is suddenly rushed to hospital in critical condition after an incident at the venue. Shockwaves ripple through the Alahan family. Emotions soar. And Aadi, already teetering on the edge, snaps.
He turns to alcohol once again—his latest crutch in a long string of self-destruction. But this time, the consequences are immediate and brutal. In a chaotic confrontation with Theo Silverton, Aadi falls hard and hits his head. The impact is severe. Blood. Panic. Silence.
The incident confirms what many already feared: Aadi is spiraling out of control. And it might be too late to pull him back.
Meanwhile, Lauren is growing increasingly concerned. She’s noticed Aadi withdrawing—avoiding her, avoiding everyone. And though she doesn’t know the full truth, she senses something deeper is tearing him apart.
She tracks him down, determined to confront the man she thought she was getting close to. But nothing prepares her for what Aadi confesses next.
In a stunning moment of guilt and desperation, Aadi finally comes clean.
He tells Lauren everything.
The LSD. The drink. The truth that it was his glass that had been spiked. That she drank from it. That he is the reason she ended up seriously injured after the house party.
A still image shows Lauren frozen, horrified. Her eyes wide. Her trust shattered.
How she reacts remains to be seen—but Aadi knows the truth can’t stop with her. He now has no choice but to face his father, Dev. The man who has sacrificed everything to give his son a future.
In the following episode, Aadi prepares to tell the entire family. His jaw is clenched. His guilt, written across his face. It’s a moment of no return. Whether he’s arrested, disowned, or flees—we’re witnessing the final chapter of a character we’ve watched grow from childhood.
And it’s devastating.
Aadi Alahan was first introduced to the show in 2009, the son of Sunita and Dev, and twin brother to Asha. From mischievous beginnings to complex teen years, Aadi’s arc has reflected the best and worst of growing up under pressure. Viewers have rooted for him. Laughed with him. Forgiven him.
But this may be a bridge too far.
The tragedy of this exit lies not only in the actions—but in the wasted potential. Aadi wasn’t evil. He wasn’t cruel. But he was lost. And as he tried to hide his shame, he hurt the people who believed in him the most.
So what now?
Will Dev stand by his son, even after the truth is out? Will Lauren report him—or protect him? Could Aadi face legal consequences? Or will he disappear before anyone gets the chance?
The show is keeping tight-lipped on the final scene—but insiders suggest that Aadi’s last moments in Weatherfield will be unforgettable.
After 16 years of chaos, heartbreak, and redemption… it seems Aadi’s time on Coronation Street is finally running out.
