Falling in love is not weakness but she's not in love yet, do its fine. But she's getting unhealthily dependent and habituated to a man who is not trustworthy enough because she's lonely. And she is gonna be heartbroken. She trusted her moms call to marry him but its a mistake coz he's too indecisive, confused and too people pleasing to be dependable when she most needs it. Much of her current status or equation in the house is something she has achieved on her own. She was a free bird and now she's becoming caged by parivaar parampara etc. She isnt too far gone yet but the cracks have started. Its heart breaking to see her observe Ruhi-Armaan and conclude that maybe she's a bad friend.
He's not dependable - at least thats how it looks so far to me. I'd love to see him be different than ghum ML and actually have the spine to live up to his own decisions to keep a distance from Ruhi and focus on his zimmedari waali wife.
That's just sad for Abhira really, coz she is a strong and transparent girl. We don't want her to go through heartbreak coz we love her. But the story won't move fwd otherwise. There won't be angst and longing if they don't go through heartbreak. That's what I feel. Baaki, if they show Armaan as a two timer then of course ppl will demand achcha aadmi for Abhira. Creatives will only go down the path of this much character assassination of Armaan if they have already made up their minds to bring AA for Abhira in future. Simple.
I find Samriddhi to be way better than Shehzaada. He's not bad but he's definitely more raw and he often is unable to show difference in emotion for Ruhi vs Abhira. There's got to be a difference na... Even if he doesn't realize it yet his body language and expression should be different for both women. I don't see that.
Let's agree to disagree here. I find zero chemistry in Ruhaan scenes. Armaan looks like a bechara lamb when he is with Ruhi. While his chemistry with Abhira is natural and he is too comfortable around her. And Sheh does a pretty great job in maintaining that. No wonder everyone find Ruhaan super cringe, coz they serve literally nothing.
