For Season 3, I just didn’t like Akshara and Abhimanyu pairing. It felt odd to me. Everyone has their own opinion so I have mine 
I loved Akshara-Abhinav pairing. They seemed more compatible. While for Abhimanyu, his scenes with Arohi were more impactful and they looked better both visually on screen as well as their professions and how their characters shaped.
For Season 4, I liked Abhira with Armaan, but not this Armaan
I liked the old actor moree. They had more cute and childish vibe. And the old Armaan would always support Abhira.
I’m glad Ruhi got a nice exit and is living happily with her son Daksh in Japan 
For Armaan and Abhira both this season, they should move on. They have no trust and respect with each other when crisis arise.
It does look like that has been the writers intention behind both the seasons, to show just because 2 people love each other doesn’t mean they are meant to be together. Only love isn’t enough when there’s respect and most importantly trust missing in a relationship. In both the seasons, the couples got married after so many hurdles, but they couldn’t hold onto relationships because of their own differences.
S3 ML Abhimanyu was a character who spent his life being the protector of his mother standing up against his father, he was used to being in the driving seat of the relationship. Akshara on the other hand was someone used to making her own life choices, even if her choice meant hurting herself/staying away from her loved ones. Abhimanyu resonated with Akshara because of his mother, someone who despite giving only love to others was neglected. Akshara resonated with Abhimanyu because he pushed her enough to choose her own happiness, someone who didn’t just accept her decision of giving up when she would be hurt by it. Abhimanyu didn’t realize that Akshara wasn’t his mom, he didn’t have to play the protector and that Akshara had her own autonomy to make her own decisions. Akshara didn’t realize that being in a relationship meant letting the other make some decisions for you sometimes, you didn’t have to play the lone warrior all the time.
Similarly in S4 despite getting married after so many obstacles, both Abhira and Armaan seem to be making decisions which they know will lead to pain for each other or jeopardize their relationship. Abhira chose to go with her first pregnancy despite knowing the painful consequences that awaited them. Armaan on the other hand gave a bigger pain in the form of betraying not just Abhira, but the whole family. Even after claiming each other to be their family, they couldn’t find each other enough for their happiness, why do they need a child to complete it…
Maybe that’s the writer’s perspective behind both seasons…. What is love if you can’t share your deepest feelings and fears with each other? What’s love if you constantly live with the fear of not being enough. What’s love if someone gives up on you easily when you are wrong? Maybe the writers are gravitating towards the fact that 2 people may have strong feelings for each other, may make grand gestures of love and confession, may even stand against the world when opposed as a sign to prove how strong their love is; yet without trust and respect all this means nothing…
