While I liked the fact that Abhi finally blew up in frustration with Simi, here are a few things to note. We never got the impression throughout the series that Simi wanted to marry Abhi. If anything, Abhi was the one who aggresively pursued Simi. If you remember, when he proposed to her she was not happy; when she was pressured to marry Nakul, she never bothered to think of how this would impact Abhi - her responsess were that he will understand (or whatever), and even down to the moment she was taking the pheras, it was Abhi, NOT Simi who was trying to end the marriage...
A few weeks later and we see Abhi is married to a woman with a lot of emotional baggage. The fact she calls him bachcha when he is probably the one with more sense than her, is an insult. He could have done better for herself, she could not. Rather than appreciate the fact that he wanted her, she's treating him as if she could have had any guy and he is the one who has lucked.
Pay close attention to the scene. He says to her that if you're so unhappy, why don't YOU leave. Is Abhi suggesting that he is not unhappy with her and is ready to stay with her? I would rather he have said, Simi, I've had enough, after 3 days I am going to set you free and you can marry an "Aadmi" for your choice.
Also, while Abhi has finally blown up, Simi will give him a sob story and make him feel guilty for what he said. Then he'll either jump of the terrace or electrocute himself - or both at the same time - to prove his love for Simi.
The writers give us a bit and then they taketh away. So while I am GLAD (and good work from Neil Bhatt) that Abhi blew is top, I know he will not leave Simi (which sucks) and Simi's sob story will win him back.
