I am not sure why people connected with Kasauli track, but there have been a lot of fun family moments pre leap. Maybe we forget cause of the constant drama from the last eight months, lol.
And coming back from this will be difficult, but I am sure if they take their time and establish a friendship first it will make more sense. We all know Abhi never stopped loving Ak, so this time its upto Ak to fall back in love with him. That also will be way out into the future. Meanwhile, I think we can expect fun moments from the next few episodes itself with them trying to cheer up Abhir and stuff.
It's amusing that Kasauli has become some buzzword for "happy place" in Gen 3 😆....as you said, there were plenty of fun family moments before that in the show also. Makers chose to prop up Kasauli as a utopia in order to prop up the cameo character......simply going to Kasauli doesn't guarantee any happiness.
Story has to continue so eventually they will also say that Udaipur was Ak and Abhir's destined happy place always and Kasauli was just one chapter on that journey😆
Rest I agree with you that it is tough to rebuild relationships from the mess and upheaval of the last 8 months so some time has to be allowed for transitions.
They are clearly working towards bringing the fun family moments back and they have to do it in such a way as to transition the characters out of the baggage of Nav's death too....so let's give them a little time. It's literally only been two epis since Abhi got out of jail and Ak told everyone to accept Nav's death as fate😆. Pace is still pretty decent I feel.
LOL I think they will change her styling soon. Abhi "widow mourning period" chal raha hai iska....but as they transition towards focusing on giving Abhir a happy family vibe, she will have to spruce herself up too....warna isko aise look mein dekh ke waise hi depression badhta rahega Abhir ka bhi😆
Wonder wat this means??! 🤔
I don’t want to assume he will call him papa or dad this soon 🤣

second gen was def better written than the current one, but its not a one to one comparison cause the characters are so different. They def made this gen the saddest of them all. But the way I see it, its cause with each generation they have increased trauma. With OG Ak, she had both her parents and their support pretty much the whole time. She had that guidance which stopped her from making some critical mistakes. Naira had more trauma in her years apart but she still had her bond with her father remain strong and stable. She had her brother too who stood for her always. And then current Ak has nothing. She lost her parents, got blamed for the death of a parent and even her brother isn't a constant consistent support. She has grandparents who aren't really great at parenting. So she ends up making the most mistakes and stuff too which leads to a lot of issues down the road.
Very well summed up. I think it has been a deliberate choice from the makers to change the character and family dynamics with each generation.
When the show first started, they pitched it as a positive family drama amongst all the other high voltage soaps running at that time....but over time, the makers and channel themselves seem to have moved away from the core message of the show and don't seem to have confidence that they can sell those kind of family bonds anymore.
They were still ok with the Naira generation cuz she was shown as a strong character unto herself who could survive even without family support even if she did value family support too. But the current Ak is just a lost character on every level.....family support is non-existent in this generation for both the leads....the families are only used for showing reactions or to create half-baked MUs. They literally serve no other function in the show right now.....lol but makers clearly feel this is the only way to sustain the show so they will keep going with it.
Right now what Rishta has is the FACADE of family....but then again, that is exactly what the rest of ITV is doing too😆....they have simply fallen in line with most of what is already going on in ITV.

Maybe Krishna Goenka's entry in Goenka Villa.

LOL now they are using the kid for their AMAZE promotions? 😆
Bas goli de rahe hain....iska "big" kya hi hoga....maybe the football match is a big thing for him isliye khush ho raha hai😆
I will be very surprised if he calls Abhi Papa or Dadda again this soon....the level of distance they have created in their bond, it doesn't seem like a possibility right now. At the most, he just may open up to Docman again.
Also the chemistry in the second generation 🔥 like the kind of scenes they had.. I haven't seen that much INTENSITY so far in this current one..
As lagjagale said, the writing for Gen 2 was notably different than for the current generation....there was a concerted effort to show Kaira romance in every situation 😆....I think I recall seeing a clip of them even romancing while trying to give PSAs on Covid safety protocols 😆.
Kaira were an equally passionate and headstrong pair so they were able to deliver those kind of scenes in their dynamic.
In this generation, all the intensity has only been given to Abhimanyu....he carries the weight of delivering the intensity for the most part while Ak runs around confused most of the time 😆. And now with the whole leap angle and showing Ak having lived as someone else's wife for 6 years, Abhira have been taken in a different direction than Kaira ever had to face. Makers have brought in forced detachment for Abhira - something they never did for Kaira no matter how many seperations they went through.
Abhira weren't even allowed a parenting dynamic in the need to glorify a cameo's fatherhood....lol so now even though they are parents in the story, have a son together - everything feels scattered. There is still scope to build intensity from here on out also but that is up to the makers if they want to do that. The actors aren't lacking....it is the story that needs to ALLOW them to show intensity 😆

Memories bhi sudden a jati hai..he couldn't sleep without blue kambal ..uske baad to wo alag hi pada dikhta hai ..mummy se door hone pe hichki ATI hai..ek episode baad wo band bhi ho jati hai 😂
LOL it's sad but I kinda laugh too seeing how much of a caricature and prop they've made out of Abhir.
Kabhi isko Papa jaap karvaate hain ki Papa se chipak ke sona is his zindagi, kabhi dikhaate hain that it is only his Mom he is connected to and willing to run away from home for 😆....sirf Maa jaap kiya isne nonstop when he had run away....but Maa waapis milte hi, suddenly it switched to Papa glorification again cuz uska birthday aa gaya....now Papa is dead toh back to full obsession on Papa only and Mama mein koi interest nahin😆
And then let's not even get into the mess of the Docman dynamic....lol kabhi Docman was his confidante jisse sab share karta tha....then overnight, wohi Docman se shut down ho gaya when he found out that's his real father....then few days baad, again wohi Docman ko reject kar diya but phir bad bhi feel ho gaya uske liye and then usko best friend bol diya😆
This mess is all thanks to makers ka need to keep Abhira split as a family for propping up the cameo....that is why Abhir is being tossed around between three parents ki jab marzi kisi ek parent se obsess karva do bacche ko....lol
Anyways aage I guess Docman ka turn aane wala hai for Abhir to get attached to again based on the way he takes turns hopping from one person to another😆
No wonder Abhi-Ruhi scenes are coming out better cuz they are keeping her character simple right now - happy with whatever little time she gets to talk and play with him....lol. Bechara Abhir has been burdened with being made a pendulum to satisfy this lame drama about keeping him confused between parents.
I was thinking about this yesterday also in just how much makers have diluted in the last couple of months for Abhir and Abhimanyu.....
There was a time when everyone was talking about how much Abhir is like Abhimanyu - their mannerisms being the same, their reactions, heck Ak did a whole tamasha over how their gussa is the same.....lol and now overnight, no one talks about it😆
Now when Abhir is struggling with loneliness or depression, it doesn't occur to anyone to wonder if he is similar to Abhimanyu on this and that might be the key to unlocking the problem.
Abhir rejected Abhimanyu so much during his stay in Birla house that now even Abhimanyu has given up trying to use correlations and analogies to samjhaao Abhir.
It really is damn funny ki usko bulaate Junior hain but sab bhool gaye ki woh kiska Junior version hai😆
