We're finally hearing from Akshara! - Page 3

In that case, shouldn't Akshara realize the extent of her life - or rather her entire life that revolves around aroo, and her own unwillingness to come out of it, and make a decision that it's best for her to not get into a relationship now?

Is she going to take arooo along with her in a suitcase to Birla house? 😆

one example - who wakes up in the morning to see if Aaru is still in bed and be worried that she is not???? There could be any reason that she woke up with most simple thing being using the washroom!

That is literally her new plan. In today's episode, she said you'll be with me or in front of my eyes 24/7 (ek pal ke liya bhi mujhse door nahi rahegi). Akshu, u might enjoy this plan but I promise you, your fiancee will not. He's going to want to steal you away from the family for cute private romantic moments and this plan will bust that lol

Today Akshara said a few dialogues that really piqued my interest:

1. Mere aur Aaru ke beech ka rishta mein tumhe shayad kabhi nahi samja paati
2. Usse akele rehna ka matlab bhi nahi pata, woh aaj tak aap sab se dur nahi rehti.
3. please meri behan ko wapas lae ao.

The first dialogue was typical of Akshara but it made me wonder, is it partly because you can't explain it yourself? Akshu, I always think a part of your grave attachment to Aaru is because Sirat Maa isn't here anymore and Aaru is her last nishaani. Evidence to that theory was today when she said Mumma Papa nah ho [in the wedding] par-". She was most likely going to complete the sentence by saying her siblings (who symbolize her parent's love - Kairav and Aaru) would be but she stopped midway. But what about before that? Your love for Aaru hasn't changed much over the years. You've loved her blindly before you knew you were half-siblings, so it isn't because you wanted to be an example like Ram ji and Lakshmanan. I don't know if that kind of love can purely be explained by the family and Sirat not stopping Akshu from being a doormat. Akshu was taught to forgive Aaru and look after her at all costs, but what about that lead Akshu to believe she's incomplete without Aarohi. What is it that makes you love her more than Kairav and Vansh? And what drew distance between the sisters and Kairav. The trio loves each other, but there's a lot of formality. In siblings who love each other as much (Akshu and Kairav, specifically), I'd imagine they'd share their feelings but here, everyone's in their own little bubbles. Is it the large age gap between the three that built this communication gap?

Akshu doesn't have monologues or conscience visits or long chats with Manjari about her feelings like Abhi and Aaru, but she has these trinkets where she lets us dive into her soul. An example of the same is the second dialogue. The reason you and Abhi connected so deeply is that you know what it's like to be alone, even in a large family. I believe when he heard your music the first time, it was loneliness and the search for inner peace that radiated within him. If Abhi because an established doctor because one Birla child had to conform to the high-pressure and stakes Birla environment, then Akshu became this sacrificing devi to support the Goenka household for there was no Naira to smooth things overtake on the responsibility of keeping everyone happy.

Another thing: Akshu folded her hands and pleaded to everyone to bring "her sister back". Isn't she Kairav's sister too? Isn't she Manish's granddaughter as well? Akshu emphasizes Aaru as her own and it never ceases to amaze me. If this was a rare incident, I would rationalize her possessive pronoun by saying everyone's mad at Aarohi so maybe that's why she had to push the meri Aaru and meri liye usse wapas le aao. But it isn't and wow. From childhood, it was meri Aaru. At times, it goes over my head how such a bond formed between the two. Akshu really considers Aarohi her child - she loves Aaru with more blindness than a parent does. And the Goenka's know that. They're seeing Akshu breakdown due to Aarohi's disappearance and pitying her plight rather than sharing it because they know, from childhood, nothing will happen to Aaru as Akshu will take care of her. Everyone has literally passed Aarohi on as Akshu's responsibility and now they don't blink an eye. It reminds me of the scene where Naksh messed up as a child (lied to his parents, bunked school, and something else) and Akshara was reacting just like this, so hurt and broken while the rest of the family just watched from afar. The Singhania's were disappointed by Naksh, but more so they were worried about Akshara's feelings for she had the same reaction. She held herself responsible for Naksh's misdemeanours and cried far more than he did.

ALSO PRANALI LOOKS SO GOOD IN THAT RED SUIT I LOVE IT

This is an interesting pov.. In support of it I want to point out two incidents from the sisters' bachpan... Don't know if you saw that.. One is when they are both in their prams and their parents Kartik and Sirat were in her club, practicing for a match. When suddenly some logs that were kept in a corner are about to fall right on Aarohi's crib. The parents notice it and come running but they wouldn't have been able to reach in time.. So Akshu being the toddler she was still, reaches out and pushes way the pram and Aarohi is saved. Everybody is amazed at the way Akshu seems to have a connection to her sister, even at other times they are shown to laugh and cry together. Another time Aarohi gets lost as some couple with an identical pram roll her away and leave their baby in her place when Kairav and Vansh were supposed to be taking care of her. Later it gets resolved.. while the Goenkas are all upset over seeing a different baby, the other couple comes and bring Aarohi and everything is sorted out. However years later when Akshu is in her pre teens and Aarohi is 8-9 years old, Kairav tells the sisters of this incident.. And then Akshu starts having nightmares of losing her sister, of Aarohi getting lost.. So such ott scenes were shown from the beginning to underlay this weird love Akshu has for Aarohi. It was this way from before the parents' death and the family were aware. It wasn't even because Akshu was conditioned to be like that by Sirat as so many people here have claimed, because Sirat never did anything like that.. She actually often scolded Aarohi whenever she put herself forward and suppressed Akshu.. In fact it used to look like Sirat inclined more towards Akshu than Aarohi, which I think is the basis for Aarohi's insecurity. And also the fact that Manish never fully accepted Sirat into the family and would often compare her unfavourably with Naira and her upper class family..and many times Aarohi overhears it even. That's why I never agree to the point which is raised that Goenkas have spoiled Aarohi by blindly loving her and pushing Akshu away to keep her happy. It's probably more like to compensate for Manish's discrimination Akhilesh and Swarna might have given her some extra attention.. But Akshu was always the reigning queen in their hearts and Aarohi is aware of it even if it isn't overtly shown..and that's the thorn for her. After all, I am thinking, why does Aarohi keep mentioning that she is alone, she's always been alone? There must be some reason for that.. And from what I saw of the sisters from the beginning, Aarohi has not been actively manipulating and emotionally 'abusing' Akshu since they were kids.. She was only shown to push Akshu away and not want to do everything with her.. But the concern was there always..like when they come to know that Akshu is Sirat's step daughter Aarohi worries for her and wants to comfort and assure her that she is still her real sister. But every now and then her competitiveness and insecurities would get the upper hand. The parents die just a few days after that and the girls don't even have a chance to talk and understand the issues with their father after coming to know the facts. So to say that the parents conditioned the girls in such a way is FALSE. A lot is said on how Akshu had to stay away from her family because of Aarohi but then in the twelve years after the parents' death, it's only in the last three that she goes away, presumably to pursue her studies. Aarohi does say hurtfully that those were the best years of her life, but it doesn't mean that she was the one who drove her away.. That point is unresolved.. Aarohi's active wronging of Akshu started only with the Abhimanyu matter. Mine is a minority opinion, but initially it would have looked to Aarohi, it's understandable I feel, that Abhimanyu was rightly hers because his family want her as their bahu, and to her mind she is better suited.. Being a cold person who doesn't even understand love, her being attracted to Abhimanyu and materially matching him is seen by her as what would develop into love.. That's why she accepts his indecent proposal too bcz she thinks his mistaken infatuation for Akshu due to her singing will eventually wear off. Anyways, so Akshu's love for Aarohi is definitely beyond what is normal or usual, but it isn't some neurotic obsession and she hasn't been blackmailed or manipulated by either her mother or Aarohi to be this way.

And then Akshu starts having nightmares of losing her sister, of Aarohi getting lost.. So such ott scenes were shown from the beginning to underlay this weird love Akshu has for Aarohi. I do remember those scenes and I often point the second one in posts to show that Akshu’s loved Aaru like this their entire lives. She protected Aaru before she even knew what protection meant. It’s such an odd thing. Like I said, Sirat taught Akshu to forgive Aaru for her indecencies, but she didn’t teach Akshu to love Aaru like this.

It was this way from before the parents' death and the family were aware. It wasn't even because Akshu was conditioned to be like that by Sirat as so many people here have claimed, because Sirat never did anything like that.. She actually often scolded Aarohi whenever she put herself forward and suppressed Akshu.. In fact it used to look like Sirat inclined more towards Akshu than Aarohi, which I think is the basis for Aarohi's insecurity. In the show we saw Aarohi’s insecurities peak in relation to Sirat when she saw Sirat and Akshu hugging on Mother’s Day and saying, “meri Danae pyaari beti” to Akshu. Furthermore, she was insecure of the dance academy being named “after” Akshu and she ran to Sheela who further poisoned her idea of Sirat-Goenka relations. also the fact that Manish never fully accepted Sirat into the family and would often compare her unfavourably with Naira and her upper class family..and many times Aarohi overhears it even. That's why I never agree to the point which is raised that Goenkas have spoiled Aarohi by blindly loving her and pushing Akshu away to keep her happy.

But Akshu was always the reigning queen in their hearts and Aarohi is aware of it even if it isn't overtly shown..and that's the thorn for her. After all, I am thinking, why does Aarohi keep mentioning that she is alone, she's always been alone? Her loneliness reminds me of Abhi actually for I’ve seen many comments about how, at times, he comes off ungrateful for his family for they all seem to adore him, even Harsh (tho Harsh is very toxic and unhealthy). There must be some reason for that.. And from what I saw of the sisters from the beginning, Aarohi has not been actively manipulating and emotionally 'abusing' Akshu since they were kids.. Before Sirat’s death, Aarohi was seen actively demeaning Akshu (causing her a pauper) and her work but it didn’t seem as if Akshu minded for she added to Aarohi’s princess. It was when Abhi praised her for her simplicity during their first meet that I saw Akshu recognize herself as special and we saw her confidence boost. She was only shown to push Akshu away and not want to do everything with her.. But the concern was there always..like when they come to know that Akshu is Sirat's step daughter Aarohi worries for her and wants to comfort and assure her that she is still her real sister. But every now and then her competitiveness and insecurities would get the upper hand. The parents die just a few days after that and the girls don't even have a chance to talk and understand the issues with their father after coming to know the facts. So to say that the parents conditioned the girls in such a way is FALSE. A lot is said on how Akshu had to stay away from her family because of Aarohi but then in the twelve years after the parents' death, it's only in the last three that she goes away, presumably to pursue her studies. Aarohi does say hurtfully that those were the best years of her life, but it doesn't mean that she was the one who drove her away.. That point is unresolved.. Aarohi's active wronging of Akshu started only with the Abhimanyu matter.

That's why she accepts his indecent proposal too bcz she thinks his mistaken infatuation for Akshu due to her singing will eventually wear off. I do agree with that. She presumed his love for Akshu was an infatuation and eventually, he’d fall in love with her instead. But didn’t she know Akshu’s feelings for Abhi were real? Akshu risked her life to save him! Anyways, so Akshu's love for Aarohi is definitely beyond what is normal or usual, but it isn't some neurotic obsession and she hasn't been blackmailed or manipulated by either her mother or Aarohi to be this way.

However, Aarohi’s nonchalant attitude towards Akshu’s panic attacks does bother me quite a bit. If not as a sister, she should be concerned as a medical student/doctor cause it’s evident she knows it’s not a one time thing. As adults, we have seen Aarohi emotionally blackmail Akshu, for example when Aaru was in the hospital after Tilak 1.0. And maybe when Akshu was referring to Aaru’s disappearance as her fault, she was thinking back to this conversation as Aaru said if Akshu married Abhi, Aaru would leave the Goenkas.

I completely agree with you. Remember when both were still babies and continously crying, Sirat jokingly says if Akshu stops crying, then even Aaru will stop. And Akahu immedieately stopped crying. Even since such a small age, Akshu has always been caring towards Aaru.

The only problem is that she's too caring that Aaru ends up feeling annoyed. Like during Sirat's death. Aaru feels that if Akshu didn't follow her to the mandir even after she made it clear that she wants to go alone, then maybe Sirat wouldn't have tripped and died.

It was obviously an accident that no one saw coming. But according to Aarohi, Akshu's need to always care caused the situation.

I don't think Aarohi has ever hated Akshara. The thing is Akshu is very affectionate, cares about everyone and is kind of clingy in showing her affections. While Aarohi is slightly more practical than Akshara. She is also quite reserved and not a huge fan of affections.

So I believe that Aaru doesn't hate Akshu. More like she feels annoyed with Akshu's too caring, too loving nature. Akshu need to learns to put herself first while Aaru needs to stop being so selfish and self-centered.
