I would say the TRP decrease was expected. Last week had some problematic things going on:
Abhinav behaving like an idiot after listening to Manyu's words. He withdrew from Akshu and came to his own conclusions. There was a rift in NavRa relationship. Abhinav's usp is his unconditional support to Akshara and always giving importance to her words. And yet he got influenced by Manyu's words, causing a doubt about NavRa future. Audience don't want to see confused people swinging from here to there. Why would they invest their time in a relationship that is ambiguous.
Akshara missing her exam. They should have let her take the exam and then got the case against Abhinav. Her law studies was an important progress post leap. They shouldn't have played with it.
They kept hinting that Akshara will call Manyu, since Abhir goes missing. Even though that didn't happen, the precap kept indicating that. I don't think the audience want to see Akshara depend on Abhimanyu for anything now. This is why I feel Abhir's illness track is going to backfire. Akshara and Abhinav going to Manyu for any help is not going to sit well with TRP aunties.
Excess of toxic Birlas. They are so repulsive, boring and irritating with their holier than thou attitude. Also there's not one likable person in that family. Makers should simply write off this family or keep their ss to minimum. There are other toxic families in ITV, but no one is as boring and useless as Birlas.
This TRP decrease is because of the backtracking they showed after the progressive stuff last week. Akshara finally took a strong stand for herself. They should have continued on that note, instead of putting a doubt in Abhinav's mind and hinting a possible reunion for AbhiRa.
