I spent a week away from this show just cause I was busy. I did hope things would have moved on by now but it seems to be getting worse in so many ways. The writing is abysmal, the characteristics of Abhira is giving me deja vu - to karthik and naira and I think that is what the writers intended. Funnily enough the UK show synopsis still mentions the show is about karthik and naira!!
They had been dragging this for 2 weeks now and it will definitely go on for another week at the most. With the drama of Mimi, well get ready for cheers, a dhamaka reunion is waiting for Abhira. Then it will be repeat, rinse and spin all over again. S3 is a rehash of Kaira.
I'm not liking Abhi at the moment. I started watching S3 for HC but honestly there is no joy in it now.
Sheesh, as a writer it hurts me to see this two characters digging themselves in deeper when all they need to do is sit down and acknowledge they hurt themselves in the midst of an argument. People in love do and say things that really cut deeper than anything anyone else can say. The fact they are not doing this just means it is dragging on for trps (aka bad writing). Random moments of long lingering looks, tripping and falling, song and dance just doesn't cut it anymore. In fact it makes them look silly and juvenile. I'm not juvenile enough to sit and watch it as well, lol.
Akshu wasn't wrong in saying he is behaving like his father. Read that again. She did not say he is like his father. There is a world of difference but his trauma is making him think the latter when she meant the former. Trauma is a difficult topic and very subjective. People need to have patience with the one undergoing it but here is what I find difficult - Abhi is a doctor, trained in these matters even if not specialising in it. His professional judgement should be to get into therapy. But nope, he is walking with blinders. Again true to life but it is very unpleasant to watch because he gets nasty and very angry. This in itself is a cycle and for that I am glad Akshu went to her parents when she did. You can love someone but take a stand against their abusiveness. yes, Abhi often borders on it by shouting, yelling and forcing someone to bend to his will, whether it is his mother or Akshu. I get it why, when he was raised in a chaotic environment (father abusive, mother submissive) he internalised his anger and helplessness (as a child) to be safe and well. However, this made him as a adult to the same thing but in his mind it is because he has to keep his loved one (mother and akshu) safe. In a nutshell, he can't cope with strong emotions or things that come along to skew his world, so he falls back to what he saw and uses his word and emotions to control events until deep inside he feels safe again. Classic behaviour of trauma and upbringing in an abusive household.
Akshu got triggered by his word. She is shown to never make mistakes and so to be told that one decision of hers - outed out to the world in the worst way possible - is a mistake, her pride and wordlview could not take it. I actually agree with Abhi, their marriage is a mistake. These two should have dated, had sex, travelled the world, made a career and then decide if they want to marry one another. LOL🤣 of course what they do is rush to marry and within the first week have so many issues that they collapse rather than work as a couple.
I just hope they actually decide to work on themselves before rushing back together. We know they well, and once again they will separate. It's in their blood after all!
I'm just interested in the adoption track. Mataji still needs to answer why the hell did she not tell any of the Birla's that Neil is their blood? - that seems to have been swept under the carpet lead by Abhi the biggest bully in this track. Oh, he cannot see his mum being questioned so who gives a fig if a child, then a man, grew up thinking he is just a poor orphan. I really liked abhi but in this track he is tarnished for me. But all is not lost, Neil will demand answers especially the way it is going. He will stand by Harsh and Abhi by Mataji. Then a total face-off will happen and more answers will come spilling out.
