Bold Orange - I agree. The HAM have their own agenda and concern for Manjari is no part of it.
Manjari really did steal the show. Abhi's expressions made it so clear that she was getting through to him. It's like he would hear her, and then all of a sudden his rage would come back. What really did bring him back into reality is when she told him to go ahead and cancel the wedding. He wasn't expecting it, and he wasn't ready to deal with it. He realized in that moment the gravity of what he had said.
I, too, loved Manjari's talk about trust. Abhi has given grand lectures about how much he trusts Akshu, but when it came time to show it, he failed. And that's ok. Given the circumstances, it makes sense. But, this should be a lesson moving forward for him.
There is definitely lots to Manjari and Harsh's story that we don't know, and I bet all of it will come out during the adoption track.
I actually thought that Harsh's advice was the complete opposite of Manjari's. As was the intention. Harsh purposefully said those things to trigger Abhi and instigate him against Akshu. He wanted Abhi to not trust Akshu. He was planting doubts in his mind about Akshu's priorities and who she is. On the other hand, Manjari was telling him to trust the girl he knows Akshu to be. The girl that would never do this intentionally. She was telling him that its okay for her to make mistakes, but he should trust who she is at the core. And that is what love is! Manjari is pure love, and Harsh is pure hate. That's all I have to say.
I didn't see a concerned husband in Harsh either. I'm sorry but Mahima and Harsh totally made a mockery out of Manjari's accident today. Mahima already had when she started using it to scheme, but it was so obvious today that their intention was to demean and abuse Akshu more than anything else. Concern about Manjari was secondary, if not nonexistant in my POV.
Harsh really didn't let Akshu speak at all -- that is where Abhi gets it from. But, luckily, he has Manjari in him and beside him to guide him. And Akshu will change him too.
As for your last point about Harsh and his dialogues about Akshu's career. Just disgusting.
About the precap -- I am with Abhi on this one too. Again, Abhi has his own insecurities about Akshu and her family, but what bothers him deeply about Aarohi is that Akshu would die for her, but all Aarohi has given her is pain. There is nothing wrong in wanting to protect the one you love from abuse and getting frustrated with them for dealing with it. The same is true with how he sees Manjari following Harsh around and him abusing her in return.
He is still calling her Akshara in the precap. He will protect her against the world, but he is still upset with her. I think that after she chooses him and the family drama happens, they will talk in private, where matters will truly be resolved between them. Waiting for the moment that he calls her Askhu again. She will melt entirely and forget all of the toxic venom he spewed at her in anger. In fact, she already has. The expression of relief, guilt, joy, everything when he showed up. It was beautiful.
