I think though in her case they made the decision to abort be medically risky as well for reasons beyond the script says so. Medically, till 3 months the procedure is relatively straightforward and not life threatening to the mother. It’s once she’s in the second trimester that her own life is at risk should she consent to the procedure.
I cant remember if they had shown Nandini was in her second trimester before she’d found out about being pregnant or not.
she would have definitely been in second trimester
like then returned from Switzerland after the assault, then her divorce case started(in between twice they were trapped by Ansh), finally she got the divorce, then on that day Ansh tried to abduct her when Tulsi kills him.
then case starts on Tulsi where she faints in the witness box and then they get to know she is pregnant...
Tulsi is convicted after that she goes for abortion, so definitely has to be over 3 months...
One think I liked there was that they showed Karan disheartened on knowing about Nandani's pregnancy, thinking now they are probably at unpartable distanc. Not like he immediately was like ok I will take your child as own..
he decided to accept it only when he realised that Nandani might risk her like
to be honest they had broken many stereotypes about ideal bahu with Nandani, she was modern, wore modern dresses like skirts, (even after marriage and 20 years leap, she was in sleeveless blouse a typical indication of Ekta vamp) was in a profession requiring late night presence, decided to stay alone in the city, went against marital r**e(earlier Gauri of Kutumbh, heroine in Koi Dil me hai) etc. had casually ignored that crime stating she would still stay with her husband (though was very angry at it but later forgave and started loving same abuser), went to abort her child...
without claiming to be so, Nandani was a real independent and feminist heroine/side heroine..
now supposedly modern ones are mostly same old damsel in distress in modern clothes
