My vote goes to Akshara, she is the most immature and in most wrong here.
Aarohi is wrong but that is how she has been bought up to be selfish at all times and get her way. She knows how to get what she wants right or wrong by hook or crook. The way she went around Manish with Akhilesh to get the Goenkas/Birlas to agree to the match is a testament to how smart she is. She managed to emotionally blackmail Akshara and take all credit but Akshara could have put an end to it at any point, she did not. The reason Aarohi managed to get the entire Goenka and Birla family on her side was facilitated by Akshara. It is not that she was not asked but she chose not to take a stand, in short she avoids confrontation.
Abhimanyu is wrong and he tried all different ways to convince Akshara but she stuck to her stand. In the end he gave in to his family's manipulation because what else could he do when his desired bride refused to accept him. It is unfortunate that his emotionally stunted family decided to choose his love's sister as his bride. He is probably the biggest victim so far, His love keeps popping up in vicinity at all times and refuses to give him closure or explain herself making him feel like a delusional pervert who can't seem to let her go. Instead she keeps giving him mixed signals which keep giving him hope and prevents him from moving on. He is going crazy and everyone is seeing it but everyone is ignoring it for their own selfish reasons.
Now back to Akshara, it is great that she is realizing that this might not be the right match but what if she had that realization after their wedding, she would have effectively destroyed three lives. Now she is talking about honesty, truth and true love but she herself has lied, been dishonest and let us not even talk about how she treated her true love. The level of hypocrisy is insane. If her sister committed a murder and told her to take the blame for it, would she do it? If her sister asked her to marry an unsuitable match to make her happy, would she do it? Every relationship has boundaries and she let Aarohi breaks her and kept justifying it. She made choice for Abhi and that was wrong. The sensible Akshara would go to Abhi and explain that while she felt some stirrings of attraction but she did not think she was a good match for him more so when Aarohi also was wanting him. She has decided to backoff. Some relationships are not meant to be , atleast he would feel vindicated that he did read her attraction correctly and he needed to decide what to do next. Or she could tell Aarohi that both of them will try to Abhi fairly and the decision sits with Abhimanyu if wants to end up with anyone of them. In principle Aarohi has already lost because Abhi did not chose her over Akshara and other matches but because she was the only option provided to him. If Akshara does the right thing now ...she will break everyone's heart.
It is an unpopular opinion but everyone keeps giving a pass to Akshara citing her childhood trauma. Who amongst these three is not suffering with a childhood trauma- Aarohi saw her mother die and she overheard her grandfather talk about bloodlines, That is what drives her to best and maintain appearances. Abhi has his own childhood trauma (not disclosed so far) that created a rift between him and Harsh and fuels his anger issues and stubbornness.
