Araucaria tree dying and grapes problem

Assalamo Alaikum respected members
first thank you for such valuable posts and such an informative forum.
I am having 2 problems in my garden
1. Having vines of red grape. During spring growht was great fresh new leaves and many bunches of small fruit visible. In summer, all large leaves (size of hand palm) started turning yellow. Fruits fell to ground. From bunches, I only got 4 large grapes rest all fell down. Even now the vine is having brown patches on leaves, loosing leaves, and producing very few (2-3) new leaves. Please guide.
2. Having araucaria tree since past few years, Alhamdulillah its close to 20 feet height. This summer all of sudden its top branches went brown and dry. My desi mali said its because of heat - strange idea but I agreed. He said chop off the top it will be fine. Now 90% of the branches are brown and appears dying. Only 2-3 new branches with growth on the lowest side of tree. Top all brown and dry.
I showed it to new mali and he said its roots are stuck or constrained by your house foundation walls so cut it down no other choice. I would really like to ask your expert guidance as its very valuable plant and took lot of effort to grow such big.
Jazak Allah for your support and help.
