Did Pragya stop Abhi from seeing Nikhil??

When Abhi wanted to see Nikhil's face after he caught him, Nikhil didn't want to be exposed. So he was worried. But Pragya also kind of stopped Abhi by interrupting him and asking him to untie her first.
I was not sure why she did that. It was unintentional or intentional? Did she think Abhi should not see Nikhil? Did she worry of a stress attack?
I thought if Abhi saw Nikhil at least one villain would have been exposed.

Yes for memory reasons - I think so.

But Rishu.. Abhi was supposed to know Nikhil from past. Purab reminds Abhi that Nikhil had worked with them before too when they meet again after Tannu pregnancy.

And then Abhi didn't get attack to meet Pragya too let alone Taaliyah.. why will he get attack to meet Nikhil by that logic anyway!
