Yeah honestly it's to the credit of the actors like Anita Raaj that she's making this whole whitewashing seem convincing where atleast the scenes seem earnest! But it's atrocious how ridiculous the flip was and just how much vileness of hers is being expected to be forgotten just because she is now in the leads' corner!! She wasn't even given one scene of reflection or just even a simple sorry to Armaan for calling him all those completely ridiculous things but we are supposed to just buy her turnaround now because Vidya is more annoying currently 
@bold this is the issue honestly …as a legacy viewer, you know there were times when you empathised with a Gayatri or a Nandini or a Rajshri more than an Akshara …you look at characters for who they are and not just where they stand with respect to the leads…even in this gen, Sanjay interests and intrigues you as a character ..you actually want to know what his next move is…he makes you curious ….you might not like him but his antagonism towards the leads still doesn’t make you indifferent towards him …I have the same problem with Manoj in the cabin issue .:.this man has been sidelined all along …he accepted Sanjay as someone who stood by the family and the firm when they were kids ..so he is willing to cede to his authority …Armaan was stripped of his cabin and cases and no one could do a thing about it .:so he’s accepted the fact that Sanjay and Rohit will always come ahead of him …but after promising him the respect owed to him professionally, now Kaveri makes things worse by choosing Abhira as well over him .:.why would he not feel sidelined or disturbed or betrayed …there is no justification for Manisha being nasty to Abhira but it is also true that Manoj’s pain and humiliation cannot be sidestepped either …and if Kaveri is being sidelined by her family today, she herself is primarily responsible for that .:.she never took a stand when she had to and allowed things to blow up ..and now she’s conveniently taking a stand that makes her Ms Goody Two Shoes? We have extensively discussed and agreed that Armaan’s handling of the whole cabin affair needed calling out ::and we did that too .:.bottomline whether people are for or against the leads, they need to make sense to you as characters ..:and forget others, Kaveri makes no sense to me ..maybe Abhira can forget all the vile things she did, maybe Armaan can forget the lifetime of trauma and manipulation at her hands but we as an audience are now being expected to root for her over say a Manisha, whose words and actions seem inconsequential in the face of all that Kaveri has done? Koi DKP se seekhein ..they should run a masterclass on how to make a mess of a show and its characters 🤷🏻♀️
P.S - i had made up my mind not to post on the forum .:.but Shivani is my weak-spot and you know it
