I wish she had told Abhi about the proposal as well and had at least taken Arohi’s name so that he could have cleared out the confusion. But I'm not going to cuss at her or proclaim Mahima is much better than her or sympathize with Harsh who is an abuser. There is a manner of criticizing someone's actions without offending people who may identify with some of the qualities that the discussed character possesses.
In regards to her telling Abhi to respect his father, she isn't wrong. His behavior is out of line. Him disagreeing or not liking his father is one thing. But for Abhi to constantly raise his voice, threaten violence or display his anger by shouting and throwing something at his father is downright rude. If I was Akshara and either I or my family witnessed this interaction, I would seriously be second-guessing my choice in wanting to marry Abhi. There are much more civil ways of engaging in a disagreement but Abhi has the tendency of taking things to a volatile extreme which is incorrect.
Moreover, if he has such a huge issue with his dad, then he can very well move out of the house or work elsewhere. But he won't because of Manjiri. So if this is the decision that he has made, then he has to bear the consequences that come along with it. He can't expect his father to change overnight or for the issues between them to be resolved so quickly. They require active and strenuous efforts and if he's not willing to put in the effort then the least he can do is find a way to peacefully coexist.
I think people still like Manjri over Mahima but some of her qualities are not praise worthy. And I think the only reason people are supporting Mahima over Manjiri is due to her being the caption of ship Abhira. Some of us are not even liking Kairav because he isn’t letting this ship sail. So I don’t think people are literally choosing Mahima over Manjiri, some of us are just sticking with whoever is team Abhira. Well I personally am 😆
@Bold I disagree. Actually Abhi does respect his father which is why he is still trying his best to be civil towards Harsh. What I don’t like is how Manjiri keeps comparing them two despite knowing this will irritate Abhi. Agreed violence is wrong but the only times he uses aggressions is when Harsh crosses the line. Abhi reminded him many times that Akshara will not be involved but Harsh didn’t only disregard this plea but he also spoke of Akshara as if she was beneath him. Abhi will obviously lose his patience after all this because Harsh is now treating Akshara like garbage. Abhi is civil as long as Harsh maintains the boundary so he does try his best to remain peaceful. I don’t think he wants Harsh to change because at this point, it seems that he’s had enough and does not wish to associate himself with Harsh. It is Harsh who not only pushed his son to this extent but he also does not comprehend why Abhi is the way he is. He blames everything on Manjiri but does not see that he is the reason Abhi has blocked him from his life.
