After someone breaks our hearts we try to distance ourselves from them.
I think the words Mannat spoke when Vikrant confessed his love broke him. He never thought he could have been that wrong about her. The evidence speaks for itself with the business that she got. Like Mannat said, he is still stuck where she left him. ARS plan was foolproof just that she didn't count on Mannat pulling that share transfer plan.
Given she broke his heart and basically sold his love why does he need to prove Mannat's innocence. Prove it for who? The problem with the kaands that Malla creates, they also create problems for other people. As much as Mannat is going to go to jail, this is also bad for Mezbaani and also affects Vikrant's dream. He already has no peace at home because the person who broke his heart is now also living under the same roof as him. He is married to someone he does not love paying for a "sin" he committed. Now his business will be affected again like it did during the bobby saga. He is basically losing everything as well so why should he also not focus on his pain and loss as well.
Mannat expressed her love but what does it change really. He is a married man now. He just wants to focus on his own healing. It's going to take a lot for him to understand that Mannat loves him and for it to sink in. Maybe only when she shows him Malla's true face.
so so beautifully explained!!!

Just adding the below parts:
Vikrant’s character is deeply human and that’s what makes him so compelling. He’s someone who trusts, gets hurt, breaks down, and takes time to heal. He’s not the kind of person who can flip a switch and suddenly fix everything. Like Addy said, right now he’s weighed down by a storm of emotions betrayal, rejection, confusion and because of that, he’s not in a place to fully understand why things are falling apart. But instinctively, he knows something isn’t right… and he will get to the bottom of it. If we talk about earlier storylines, like the Bobby track it’s not easy for anyone to accept that someone from their own family could be capable of something so horrifying. Be it murder, abuse no one wants to believe that. And when it comes to the fact that his mother was secretly drugging him again, no one can easily digest that. Who questions their own mother like that? These are complex, deeply human reactions.
But despite all of this the pain, the doubt, the rage Vikrant never stops protecting Mannat. His anger is never just directed at her. When he loses control, it’s at the situation, at himself, at the betrayal. But even in those moments, her safety is always his top priority. And that says everything about his character.
