I had a feeling Anand would tell Harshvardhan to apologize to Manjari. I would have liked to have Anand yell at him so more but instead he's acting like the big brother who is just trying to fix the situation and advises as such. It's always once again the reputation of the hospital, etc. Well, you should have thought of that when you decided to cheat on your wife. You should have thought about your words and the years of abuse you put on your wife and the way your own son witnessed everything. A simply sorry isn't going to cut at least not for Abhimanyu. Because of the trauma that Manjari has faced over the years and that yearning to be loved by Harshvardhan she literally was melting under his sorry. But even still there was some apprehension if later there would be some payment.
I will say this Harshvardhan was really calm not in a menacing way and he may have been lying just to get this over with. But the way he told Abhimanyu that he doesn't know the full story and this matter is only between him and his wife. He still fails to see what he does and how he behaves impacts not only his relationship with his wife but also his relationship with his family - his sons Abhimanyu and Neil. One son learned to voice his anger and the other suppressed his because he didn't know his true birth right.
Now I don't know if there are red herrings in these dialogues making it seem like there is more to the story or just usual words that an elder would say to a prying youngster about a situation. Truth is Abhimanyu has seen things and he knows truths but he also saw things as a child that perhaps he didn't actually understand. Or only saw half of a situation but not the full picture and based on that made his own assumptions. I'm not saying Harshvardhan is not guilty for the abuse he's put Manjari through for all the years. But even in situations there are rights and wrongs (what I mean is there may have been times when Manjari had done something wrong and was in the wrong but the way Harshvardhan responds is always in the wrong because he goes straight to his vile talks.
Enter my Manjari may be evil theory 😈 😆 We know Manjari took in Neil but hide is truth. I had said it I wonder if there was a part of her that was okay seeing Neil get mistreated by Harshvardhan. It was like sweet karmic retribution that father is bashing his own son and doesn't even know it. On the same lines Manjari also plays the victim knowing if she does in certain situations she could get Abhimanyu to do things for her. Do things in such a way that further takes Abhimanyu away from his father. Okay end of theory rant 🤣
Akshu:
Coming to the hugging scene now that I've seen the whole sequence I totally agree with you Pooja this is Akshu's way of calming down her husband so she can speak to him. She is not being submissive.
This entire day has been one angry moment after another for Abhimanyu. His rage meter is literally filled to the brim. It's going to take some time for him to get out of this funk so they can talk.
But writers won't give a piece of respite more drama is coming our way
Pre-cap:
I will just say I don't trust Manjari. Because of this whole situation I really think she is going to start alienating Akshu. And because the situation at home is still very sensitive I suspect Abhimanyu will continue to comfort his mother and do as she says. Which means Akshu don't do anything for the family. So no cooking, no prayer, and, no sticking your nose in anybody's business. Basically ignore everyone and just go to work and come home. Akshu went from being alone in the Goenka family to really being alone in the Birla family. At least the Goenkas (minus Arohi) loved her and enjoyed her company.
