Yes. Abhinav is a good friend, a good husband, and a great father
For six long years, he had fulfilled every responsibility of a friend, husband, and father. In return never expected anything. Never exerted his rights on Akshara.
They were married on paper only. It's not like Ashkara wanted to leave and he prevented it.
So, How exactly did he trap her?
He wasn’t a husband during their 6yrs because they were neither emotionally involved nor physically - as you said it was a paper marriage. So does living together and providing monetary support make him a good husband? It definitely makes him a decent person for keeping his side of deal and respecting boundaries that they agreed. From what writers have shown they get along well and resolve their differences quite amicably. But I think this is because they weren’t emotionally involved. They do have compatible personalities. But in my opinion when you start to get involved with a person, dynamics of the relationship do change. So good husband? - he could be eventually but I don’t think they are there yet.
Good friend? - that was the second point of my post. In my view, they are at best flat mates who share a house, finances and a kid together (🤦🏻♀️) but given their aloofness for 6 years - are they even good friends yet? They hardly knew each other during the 6 years and Ak is probably opening up to him in past few episodes.
So he has been a good father, good flat mate doing his part for the house and keeping boundaries with the other person as they agreed but does that make him a good friend and husband.
To his credit, he did tell Ak after Udaipur trip, that he should leave because their relationship is based on gratitude and this is what I mean. By agreeing to marry that day, he created an invisible barrier of debt and gratitude for Ak. Instead if he would have given her space, time and support to process her trauma and then if Ak and he wanted to marry, they would be in a real relationship rather than fake one. But he wasn’t thinking of Ak when he said yes, he was thinking about himself and his desire to keep the child.
I am not saying that Abhinav is evil and that this was his master plan from beginning. What I mean is that Ak was under trauma but he wasn’t so he could think with clear head and so his decision that day was selfish and something that emotionally trapped Ak - even though he didn’t intend to.
So now after 6 years of living together that too with a child involved, can Ak just walk away if she wanted to?
