Tbh, the past few episodes have made little to no sense to me. Ak talking about her marriage with Nav, and all of them just arguing while Abhir is still in the house. Abhir going on incredibly long bathroom breaks. It feels like everything is just stuck since Abhi got to know about Abhir, and tension just keeps building. No one has moved forward an inch.
I am glad we got Abhi's POV today cause it was getting really hard to connect the dots with him. He feels guilty about not picking up calls/ not listening but still blames Ak cause she could have told him through any other means. Ak also revealed her worries when Manjari said if she had known, Ak asked would you have taken my son then?
I think Ak really believed that Abhi would forgive her/ realize she wasn't wrong and come get her during those seven months. I think she expected him to be angry about Neil's death and everything but not to completely shun her out of his life. She called him because she wanted to share the happy news but also because she wanted him to accept her back. When he refused to listen to her, she realized that even if he accepts her child, he will not accept her back. So that led to her hiding things and never telling them cause she was worried about going back and being forced to either give up her kid or forced to co-parent with Abhi, who she still very much loved and who would still have the final say in everything.
Abhi is not wrong that she could have contacted some other way, but what would that have gotten her except more judgment and pain? But yes, if she were thinking about what's right for the child, she would have informed at least BP or someone to convey the info, which she didn't.
From Abhi's end, he was going through hell too, and he does regret not being a good husband but also feels like he had no other options then. Ak has always been blind to Abhi's pain or his mental issues, and this is an extension of that.
The custody battle really seems to have come out of nowhere. Both Abhira were maintaining no need for a custody battle, and today suddenly, both are on board. Abhi should have listened today, I have no idea why he kept interrupting her. Also, Ak could have just told him to shut up and said that it was Kairav, not her, who gave the restraining order. I don't understand how Ak can talk about the past, and everything else but not convey the actual information. Btw Abhi saying, "You can't use Goenka's power and money," sounds so funny when he is trying to prove in a custody battle that Ak is poor.
Finally, I completely expected all the dirty tricks in the custody battle, and I am pretty sure the whole reason for showing Sharmas poor is so that Abhi wins custody, but then he gives it up because Junior misses his family.
Custody Points :
In favor of Abhi :
1. Navshu are poor
2. Abhir is ill and needs doctor family to provide proper care
3. Abhi wasn't informed
4. Navshu don't have a real marriage ( whatever that means )
5. Ak is a bad mother cause she was fighting goons during a complicated pregnancy and trusted a stranger instead of her very supportive family
6. Abhi is a good father to Ruhi
In favor of Ak :
1. Abhi is mentally unstable/violent
2. Abhi wanted the pregnancy to be aborted
3. Abhi divorced Ak when she miscarried
4. Abhi is set to marry Arohi and is already a father to Ruhi
5. Abhir loves his current family, and such a big change would be harmful
6. Sharma family may be poor but they did everything to provide and care for Abhir
7. Abhir is raised well and has no mental health issues thanks to Navshu parvarish
8. Mother's rights trump father's rights
9. Nav is best father/human
Logically Ak would win, without any doubt. But in the ITV universe, I think Abhi may actually win cause he will play dirty while Ak won't.
