Oh, I very much did. But I restarted watching regularly after the second leap because Abhinav-Akshara story pulled me back in. It felt great to see Akshara in a healthy relationship and in a new place altogether. And her realising her relationship with Abhimanyu was a prison was sure a highlight for me.
And I was honestly looking forward to see Abhimanyu breaking down and introspecting how low he has fallen and he would be in misery thinking how he treated Akshara. But yeah, that is for sure is not happening and the deranged pshyco is back.
And I will probably keep watching till Abhinav story line culminates and will hope to see Abhimanyu being shown a mirror by Abhir which I don't think will happen.
Honestly I don't thank any relationship in this show is healthy.
I personally feel Akshu is slightly delusional. She made this family to of course help raise Abhir. But I sort of feel like she is using Abhinav now. Like she knows if he goes she has to face the reality that its just her and Abhir. He's the key to keeping this "family" together. He's a shield she uses to keep people away. Hence her panic when they returned to Kasuali and Abhinav was having his mini crisis. From that point on I just felt like she was simply willing to do anything to keep Abhinav. So she allowed herself to give in to his wishes and wants as she knows he has fallen in love with her despite the fact she doesn't love him. It just felt so off putting for me. Granted she was trying her best to "move on" and essentially this marriage is like an arranged marriage. She decided to stop listening to her heart and just be practical about things even though she had her own reservations. She even asked Lord Krishna what was wrong with giving someone hope? When the underlying context was that she would never love. She's pretty much given up on love.
Goenkas have always been bad but there were so many ways she could have handled the situation. I feel like she isolated herself to protect herself but yet due to that isolation it made her ties with her family even worse. Kairav was acting like a dummy until recently when he finally patched up with his sister.
Writers have been there are some good things we did get after the leap but then at the same time some really bad things. We are back to characters saying one thing one episode and next episode they sort of contradict what they just said the episode before or we have people go 180 change in one episode.
I continue to keep my expectations low.
Just knowing how our conversation had been in the past I don't expect you to agree with anything I said 😆 We always have different view points.
