I can't overlook the fact that Arman was appalling during their divorce. Being aware of the fact that Abhira is an orphan, he agreed to the divorce prior to her finishing her studies, did not take a stand when she was being humiliated by his Dadisa, complied with the dadisa's request to remove the marriage symbols to signify that Abhira has no value his life, agreed to marry Ruhi the next day, shamelessly expressed that it was the best decision to marry Ruhi and that Abhira was a child whom he was babysitting, and many more incidences.
Abhira ends up staying at an unsafe place, has no money/food and almost becomes a beggar.
Despite all this, Abhira is deeply in love with him and thinks he is a great human. As a woman, how do overlook all the disrespect and awful treatment just for the sake of love? That too, one-sided love.
Her dialogues were particularly problematic in today's scene - she just glorified him and said what a great human he was and that she was helpless and hopeless before his supposed goodness. If he continued to treat her humanely and decently, she would love him forever.
The implication seems to be that merely exhibiting basic decency and politeness towards someone is now the lowest acceptable standard for a man to be regarded as possessing exceptional moral character by a woman.
I will be honest, I did not find Abhira's breakdown impactful because she has had so many breakdowns, and it has reached a point, where you feel like she needs to get a grip on herself. It looks almost embarrassing now.
I have a genuine problem with the way women are portrayed and how their self-respect is undervalued.
