Yes, I was worried about this confession because of the second hand embarrassment that he will be rejected but there is nothing embarrassing about the confession because it was basically him surrendering helplessly to his feelings and not hoping for anything from her. She kept yelling about wanting to know the truth, so he gave her the truth. And also the teary eyes when confessing it felt like Abhi was saying I know you are annoyed that I can’t move on but even I am annoyed that I can’t move on
I just have to appreciate HC again for still giving his sincere 100% to the scenes even as the story ping pongs wildly.
People outraged so much in advance presuming this confession will make Abhi a doormat, it will be a joke blah blah.....dunno why people lose faith so easily in Abhi as a character and HC's ability to always add some variation and nuance in the scenes.
It was obvious from the precap also that even though this is another upside down confession, he is enacting it differently....and the actual scene proved it.....the way Abhi expressed his emotions had that pure honesty as always but this time without that fierce intensity.....because he has accepted his love as hopeless....that is the nuance that HC brought to this scene today and I feel he enacted it very well. Not one false note in what Abhi said and emoted in this confession.....as usual, his emotions steal the show in the epi while Ak is left looking like a wild caricature.....lol the only few moments of peace in the epi was when she was just watching him while he confessed
Kudos to HC for not letting Abhi's emotions feel stale even as the story generally stagnates in the rinse/repeat of Ak's forced anger and frustrations.....lol
