Another bullshit episode!
Akshu wants to go search for Neil with Abhi. Abhi says whatever happened in the past wasn’t her fault, but what happened today was her fault. He told her to stay away and the mom who always supports her did too, but she didn’t listen. He keeps talking, but she leaves. He turns around on the bike and she isn’t there. He looks kind of shocked but he drives away....
Mahima is comforting a crying Manjari. Don’t ask about dialogues because I couldn’t watch Manjari’s drama so I forwarded.
Parth and Shef are looking for Neil and they have an emotional conversation. Harsh is also rattled to learn that Neil isn’t at home. He looks remorseful. This truth coming out is what is going to bring this family together.
Aarohi saves Neil on the road and brings her to the Goenkas. She calls Akshu.
Akshu arrives and tries to give him a kachori but he tosses it. He bashes her for not telling him the full truth and keeping it from her. She tries to explain what happened, but he doesn’t let her. So, officially, Akshu has 0 people on her side willing to hear her out. This is just unbearable. She begs him to come home.
Just then Abhi arrives. Vansh called him. He gets mad at Akshu for not calling him, but her priority was getting Neil back. Mahima is there too. Neil runs away and Abhi chases him. Mahima stops Akshu from following.
The Goenkas stand there silent. Literally there is not a single person in Akshu’s corner right now. 0.
Precap is the media has arrived and Abhi goes to tell him teh truth. Everyone tries to stop him but he opens the door. And then Garima’s BTS.
Like I know the FL will get in a situation in which things go against her but when the show already has some high voltage drama and toxicity issues seeing this happen always gets at me really badly 😡 🤬
I guess the track is going for the everyone finally unites as a family by directing all their undue anger at the FL. The family dynamics will shift and unaware of everyone it will be for the better but in the meantime they are too tunneled vision in their pain and anger they will lash it all out on Akshu who has a heart of gold and will understand everyone's pain. But her being mistreated isn't right either people in that house who never cared for her due to their own insecurities and have very wicked tongues will leave no stone unturned to say their taunts at her. And quite frankly I am not sure I trust Abhimanyu to say something. He probably will because if he doesn't that is character assassination by the writers.
For the first time we had Mahima comfort her sister. For the first time we had Parth speak about his worries to Shefali in a normal way. For the first time we see Harshvardhan worried about Neil and the situation in the house. And I would also say for the first time Abhimanyu is shown thinking about Neil. I know he cares for Neil and we have seen it but sometimes I feel he takes Neil for granted or is too absorbed in his own worries sometimes he doesn't give the time he needs to him.
Now Akshu who is still finding her way into this family and has done nothing wrong has somehow upset the entire family. I am not sure how I feel about Akshu hugging onto Abhimanyu in the pre-cap. Especially since he thinks she did this when she didn't. The only thing if I could say that Akshu did wrong in today was not call Abhimanyu when she found out about where Neil was. I understand she was trying to get to Neil and make sure he was all right but I find again her slowness of deciding what to do in high stress situations got the better of her. She could have told Manjari and Mahima that she found Neil and then called Abhimanyu.
Neil is too hurt in all of this. Now that the writers have written him to be upset with Akshu there plan is 100% making Arohi the person he will connect with. Arohi is the step sister and she always had to "fight" for her rights against Akshu. So she will encourage Neil to "fight" against Abhimanyu for his rights. I like to be proven wrong but I have no faith in the writers to keep things light on the show. Arohi is determined to ruin Abhimanyu's life and so what better way then to pit brother against brother?
And my standard disclaimer here until I am shown otherwise: Manjari is evil. The hate she had in her eyes for Akshu. That is not normal. Her game is up and she is pissed. If Akshu gets hurt later it is because Manjari planned it 🤣
I wonder will Abhimanyu's eyes open up if he sees his mother mistreating Akshu?
