omg, Akshara

. Literally, with very few words she broke him down! these are not small words for a father
But Abhimanyu literally got the worst realization
The only thing I will credit the writers is having the confrontation be abhira only. No gorillas, jhaadu, or Nav!

This right here is the main difference between Ab and Ak today.
Brief recap -
Whether we like it or not, truth is Ak had put herself in the center of the incident. Not wanting to wait for police was her and Neil’s own choice. They could’ve kept a watch or followed silently in the car and kept updating the police. That would’ve worked. We can play with semantics of he said, she said, but stepping out and going to confront those goons was a choice willingly made by Neel and Ak. They wanted to save those girls and was impatient to not wait for the police. If it was not her choice, she could’ve refused or got out and walked off in the opposite direction but she didn’t. She was as willing a partner in this incident. To me it was an unfortunate incident, not accident. It would’ve been an accident had they ended up there without knowing what was going on but not here. Here they choose to go to that spot being well aware of the danger. It was noble intentions coupled with awful execution that ended in loss of life.
6 years back whatever Ab did was very harsh but totally impulsive. But, truth is in the light of what happened, he did not act in a vacuum. He got blinded by immense loss and lashed out. He was distraught with the 3 losses he faced. And everything he said and did on that day and next few days was his emotional response to tragedy. And Ak bore the brunt because she was partially responsible for the recklessness she and Neel displayed. In his anguish he did not realize the extent of damage he was causing, the extent of hurt and betrayal he was giving Ak. He was completely wrong in impulsively initiating divorce and the refusing to talk to her later. So yes, he is only now realizing the entire extent of the damage, that is being unaware that one of his babies survived. But fact is whatever he did was impulsive, none of it planned. He went with the flow of emotions. Even today Ab is still reacting to situations. None of what he has done so far or is still doing is planned or conniving. He is still going with the flow of the situations before him.
On the other hand, after the last time Ab called back and she heard that half baked conversation with Nav, she decided to break off completely. The difference is after 6 years Ak’s actions seem cold and calculating. She is measured in her actions and is intentionally saying and doing things to hurt Ab. Two destructive emotions, anger and ego are what are guiding her actions. 6 years back she was distraught and immensely hurt that she did not even want to approach her family. She refused to go with BP and refused to let them meet her. The only communication she afforded were some voice notes she sent to BP. Her depressed state was her reaction to AB’s angry outburst though she herself accepted she was wrong in how she responded to those goons.
Now i6 years later all the pent up anger has hardened her. It is coupled with fear in equal amounts. Why has she vehemently refused to Confess to Ab? She actively wants to punish him specially for ignoring her calls. But why the fear in her mind is over riding everything? One is fearful only when one does something wrong. I feel in 6 years Ak feels a little that her impulsive reaction to hide their son was wrong but she’s gone down this path too far and she has included Nav and Abhir himself in this deception. If she was fully confident that she is right she wouldn’t fear that Ab will snatch Abhir. Somewhere that very thought itself suggests her guilt.
when the dust settles, Ab will be left with deep regret and extreme guilt but have a clear conscience that his actions were never premeditated, whereas Ak will end up with her share of regret and guilt but May also end up loathing herself for turning in to the very person she disliked, Ar, a person who manipulated and mentally abused people for her selfish gains. Coz at this point there is no love left in Ak, no compassion or forgiveness either, she only seeks to hurt as she has been hurt. It is very.sad to see this.
