Ak carries the whole family forward which is actually very difficult and complicated and the sufferings are more. If you have just one priority, its easier, you are only concerned about that one person or that one aspect. You dont have to bother about others. For Arohi, her priority is always herself and her career. So her decisions are easier to make and she is even smart to manipulate people to her advantage and will go to any extent to get that attention and fulfill her desire. She doesnt care about family or how it affects others. Even for Abhi though a straightforward and righteous person, is easier to make his decisions cos his only priority is his mom and Ak. Now when we come to Ak, its a lot tangled story. Her life is always complicated because she wants peace and is concerned for every member of the family. She lost her own mother when she was an infant and her stepmom and father again that too in front of her eyes and she feels guilty for it towards Arohi. Her greatest fear and insecurity is of losing family and understands and values relationships for which she will sacrifice anything to keep them together and at peace. More the number of people you are concerned, more the issues and more the sacrifices to make and thereafter more the sufferings you have to endure.
After marriage, Ak has to think of Abhi, her in laws, whole of Goenkas including Arohi if she becomes the cosister.. All these people have to be kept happy including Arohi. Its going to be hell. As of now Ak doesnt realize the level of manipulation Arohi can do, she is still naive and protective of Arohi. It will take time for her to understand. Abhi will guide ak and protect her. Until the pain and sufferings, ak has to endure, she will happily bear it. But she will change the moment when that pain, hurt and suffering is directly directed to Abhi. Abhis unconditional love, support, will gradually change her and she will learn to prioritise him over others and take a stand for herself. As of now she knows she loves abhi but to understand the intensity and depth of it will take time. You can see it in glimpses eg fire incident and court issue where her actions are spontaneous.. But its fullfledged understanding she will only realize after marriage and time. She is just a playful, innocent cheerful cub now. Life with Abhi and time will teach her to grow into a tigress who can match her beloved tiger and fight her own battles.
