It's totally fair if the audience prefer this couple. I mean.. whatever makes sense for story. Honestly I didn't even like the plot in the beginning. Aryan was already married, right? I know there was another woman. Triangle going on.
The makers might had realised that Imlie should move on and it clicked for the audience. When the characterisations for the other ML is designed better and the story between Imlie and Aryan is well written and loved by the audience, then there is no surprise that they will tune down Manasvi's role.
I think he was not married but was going to. Imlie was the first wife as far as I know. I didn't use to watch it then. But the story eventually went the usual way again. Stupid hero getting fooled time and again, vamp doing all the scheming and plotting, and nobody believing the heroine's truth. Same old same old🙄🙄
And then every show just shows the forgetting every abuse and coming back to the abuser because of "love" 😒😒
