I concur with your thoughtsā¦the thing is Akshara Abhimanyuās journey has been somewhat similar. Akshara was burdened with her mothers death blame and constant emotional abuse by Arohi since childhood and Abhimanyu was burdened to constantly be strong and shield his mother from Harshvardhan as he abused her. Both had manipulators since childhood. Aksharas journey of coming out of manipulation was very nicely shown in stages. With Abhimanyuās love and support, she began slowly from seeing Arohis actions for how wrong they were, to then calling her out and making her rightly take responsibility for it. Then after her license got cancelled Akshara was still calm and let Arohi say crap. But after Neilās accident due to Arohi, she fully saw Arohi for what she is and told her plainly - u donāt love Neil, I give squat what u say, just stop using him for your selfish motivesā¦there was no looking back after that. It was shown nicely how Abhimanyu helped her reach that stage. But Abhimanyu is still stuck with his biggest manipulator - Manjiri. We never saw Akshara helping him see through Manjiriās actions. There was a glimpse when Akshara opposed bringing Neil Arohi home after their marriage but Neilās love and shielding him from Arohi overpowered Abhimanyu. Now to add on, along with Manjiri, Ruhiās demands are also biggest blackmail for Abhimanyu. Iāve lamented before also - why do writers shy away from showing Akshara healing Abhimanyu from this toxic relations? We hoped she would slowly mend Harshvardhan Abhimanyu relation too but that went down gutter too. The leads journey towards being a mature understanding couple who then kick their toxic families and go stay away separately was never shown š”. These two have had issues only because of families and itās high time specially Abhimanyu sees itā¦
I cannot agree more. It needs to start happening.
Abhi is not perfect he has a lot of flaws and he is stubborn and believes he is right from his point of view and it is the same with Akshu too. In fact everyone in the show thinks they are right or doing the right thing from their point of view but what they lack sometimes is seeing the bigger picture.
Akshu use to sometimes be the voice of reason. I really like the scenes when Akshu was explaining to Abhi why she wanted to work at the other hospital and all that. Those were some nice set of episodes where you could see Abhi's need to control and protect was there and Akshu telling him its okay if we like different things or have different view points. We don't always have to like the same things. It was great way to say lets respect each other's decisions and support each other.
Honestly if you go back to some of the older episodes there are these golden nuggets of Abhira. To me those laid some foundation of their understanding of each other. But they always were are pitted against each other due to forces and circumstances out of their control.
š¤ we have some good positive things happening in Udaipur. We need Abhira fighting each other face to face. None of this hide and seek stuff. Some revelations or something or another needs to happen. Someone needs to get checked into Birla hospital now but it cannot be Manjari, Arohi, or Roohi. This can help them drag a bit without going into cringe mode.
Maybe Mimi ends up fainting or gets a heart attack when someone lets slip Abhi and Arohi are getting married. š¤£ I need fiesty angry dialogues between Abhi and Akshu.
