1Hi Pareshp
Thanks for reaching out.
All WordPress themes overwrite when updating so it’s unfortunately not update safe to make changes to theme files directly. If you do and run a theme update all your code edits will be lost. If you’d like to edit the theme at a code level, please, use a child theme: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes.
To restore please follow these instructions: https://siteorigin.com/basics/updating-theme-from-zip/
Hope that helps.
