I am so here for this ship - they are serving and serving so well. They are building comfort and understanding like #Kaira and #Naksh did. While I had to create a narrative to explain #Abhira's instant love and connection (which is then explicitly stated in their first drunk confession), I don't have to do that with Armaan and Abhira. We see the potential for camaraderie and situations they're placed in to help it progress.
Abhira is just adorable - I can totally imagine Naira hiding behind kittu for fun sake when approaching Suhasini, and here Abhira is doing the same. We see the age gap between the two characters, and with that comes a special consideration for Abhira's situation. Armaan is taking care of her like Akshara would, and that's so nice to see - from protecting her from allegations to feeding her noodles how she likes. Granted, Armaan takes care of everybody, but with Abhira, he doesn't have an expectation of reciprocation. He isn't begging for her love as he does with Dadisa or others.
It's also refreshing because it differs from Abhimanyu and Virat (GHKKPM). Unlike Abhimanyu, he doesn't roar (I also don't think the actor could pull it off as well as Harshad, so smart move-makers). Armaan takes a calmer, more collected approach. Unlike Virat, he isn't the golden child, and so his relationships are far more complex.
