Can someone explain to me what's going on? My friend tagged me in an upcoming BTS where Akshara drags Aarohi about voice messages to Neil. Apparently, Aarohi talked about harming herself in them and I'm so confused.
I know Aarohi and Abhimanyu are two different people (arguably one has an acc moral compass and the other is a vamp gone wrong), in two different situations but the voice messages thing reminds me of Abhira's confession. Abhimanyu warned Akshara similarly to admit her feelings - she ran to him in distress, believing he'd hurt himself. The similarities between the two scenarios actually make me uncomfortable cause I don't know where the writers are going with this. It makes me dislike Abhira's confession. I don't know if their aim is to make Neirohi likeable (like Kunal and Kuhu) but I don't think this is how you do it.
Maybe their aim is to show Abhimanyu that Akshara loves him and the Birla's so she will go against Aarohi and support him? Or just show him that Akshara isn't weak when it comes to Aarohi anymore. She has a strong head on her shoulders and doesn't sacrifice for no reason (like Manjari).
Edit: Just watched the episode (first one I've fully watched since Abhira's fight about Manjari-Harsh's divorce thingy) and Akshara Goenka-Birla, I love you. I mean, I've always loved you my choti sherni but the way you stood up about depression and how serious it is warmed my heart! Pranali, you've acted mental illness out with such grace and accuracy that your panic attacks gave me representation in ITV and now, this. The way you stormed upstairs because Aarohi's depression _________ (don't know enough to know if she's actually mentally ill or acting so I'll leave it blank) felt so real because you, Akshara, as a part of our community felt hurt and insulted. I love you Akshu.
Abhi, I wanna give you a hug because I know how much Neil meant to you so seeing him in this state, without Akshu by your side and your mom's comforting embrace, is a nightmare come true. You've struggled so much this last year but you've made it through and I'm proud of you for growing and just being amazing
