It took time for Kaira to gain their own loyal fans & emerge as a most popular couple. Akshu was liked by majority when her character was introduced in Gen 3. Viewers accepted and liked her being Kaira's daughter though she didn't possess any of her parent's traits initially.
There's a lot of generalization that goes on here . I'm also a gen 1 fan & a gen 2 fan also ..in either of the generations the format of the show was such that either you like it or dislike it . Only in this generation that's gen 4 , there's plenty of troll worthy material so obviously it will attract that kind of a viewership ..and comments etc will be likewise ..that dhinchak style of story telling , ddp filled plots and every char acting randomly , flipping in 2 days , it never used to happen even in s3 . It started towards the end of s3 and s4 is 100 % like that .
I don't remember about anyone else but I didn't like akshara sharma either . And Def not bec she was somebody's daughter . I liked her only after white day events.
There was never a blind hatred for akshu ,and even if it's there for abhira , not everyone blindly "hates " abhira . If they do they have the right to their opinion like you and me ..
