Anyway for some of the new people, I started loathing Abhimanyu Birla after he proposed Aarohi after Tilak 1.0. He was so self obsessed, he couldn't see anything else other than his pain and was our classic example of a toxic hero. He kept harassing/manhandling Akshara every chance he got and calling that out didn't go well with the fandom.
And I stopped watching the show. I didn't even watch Abhira shaadi. But after that I started watching once in a while and what I understood is Abhimanyu has this idea of Akshara. And every single time she behaves accordingly to her character traits and not his so called idea of how she should behave, he lashes out. In a way she was right when she said, her relationship with Abhimanyu was like a prison. She never had the freedom to be herself. He always kept her apart from his family, never letting her consider the Birla family as her own. (Anyway it is not like the Birla family is a family one would like to have in their corner 🤪)
So, I recently started watching more regularly after the second leap. And I see a lot of opinions here, that on the day of Neil's death, Abhimanyu acted out of character. He was destroyed and what not. But for me it was very much the natural progression of the guy he was. Obsessed with oneself and his pain, can't see anything beyond his anger or ego, so that did not come as a surprise at all.
But like everyone has pointed out, it is very much unbelievable that someone who is privileged like Akshara did not go to her maternal family but decided to entrust herself with a stranger. But for whatever reason she did that, I absolutely love the gem of a person Abhinav is. He is everything that Abhimanyu is not and such a pure soul. Even the way Abhinav and Akshara argue is so healthy. And I love how they stand together like a single unit against anyone outside their nuclear family even if they have disagreements with each other. What a bliss of a relationship!
And now coming to Abhir, I absolutely agree with Akshara for not actively trying to let Abhimbayu know the truth. She tried even after being humiliated and thrown out like that when she just had a miscarriage, by her soul waala pyar who is a doctor by the way. Didn't even bother about her existence. And I give it to her for being vulnerable and still reaching out to him when she realises one of her babies are still alive. She did that much, begged for a chance to talk and didn't even get that. No woman with self respect will go back to a horrible human like Abhimanyu after that. I love that how she so badly wants to keep toxic Abhimanyu and Birla family far away from herself and her son.
And coming to today's episode, she talked about everything she went through. The pain, the stress, being alone in a complicated pregnancy, fighting hard for her son's and her life. But what did Abhimanyu do. HE WAS STILL OBSESSED WITH HIMSELF AND HIS PAIN AND HOW HIS HAK WAS STOLEN FROM HIM! Not even for a second he felt guilty and miserable or even basic compassion for everything Akshara went through trying to give birth to Abhir. He was so focused on himself and his pain. He kept saying, I didn't know, I didn't know. Not even once he admitted he didn't know because he treated his ex-wife, another human being in such an abhorrent manner.
I pray to God that none of you, even the hard core Abhira fans end up with someone like Abhimanyu as your partner!
Also, how are you some of my forum friends, @indiatv, @Amru4krish. I don't know whether anyone else is still active.
Also, extremely happy to see so many opinions on the toxicity of Abhimanyu Birla and the love Abhinav-Akshara is getting even though there is a 100% chance they won't stand a chance against the soul waala pyaar/couple.
