Again a superinteresting episode:
Synopsis first: AK while defending AbhiN, blurts out the truth and everone is shocked. Before things could go worse, Abhir comes and asks if they are fighting. That puts the argument to an end.
Back at Birla house, mahima accuses Manjiri of having double standards. That conversation was a delight to hear...
AK, AbhiN are just processing what happened, too numb to come to terms with it. BP thanks AbhiN for whatever he did for AK and Abhir. In future, I will not be surprised if BP stand with AbhiN over AK. The hug between BP and AbhiN was so pure to see. AbhiN is no more his 'Jamaisa' but a son he would adore.
At Goenka house, US chachi, says Abhira are the couple. Instead of making 4 people unhappy, atleast make Abhira happy.
BM tells AK to put efforts to make her marriage with AbhiN work. AK kind of agrees to it. AbhiN overhears to convo, tells AK that he is never going to impose the relation on AK but he is uncomfortable as all have come to know the truth of their relationship.
Episode ends.
Precap: AK files for Abhir's custody.
Now, my thoughts(lol):
1. AK's expectations from AbhiM: even now, AK has some string attached to AbhiM. She expects that atleast AbhiM would do the right thing this time. In yesterday's episode, when Manjiri declared her guilty of wrongdoing, she had some expectation that AbhiM will take a right stand. But, he said, she is guilty and snap went another string.
2. Manjiri is right: one comment from Manjiri that I liked was, why AK made everyone live a life that is incomplete. I know that we can't find faults with the relationship between AK and AbhiN, as the terms and conditions were predecided and accepted, it did bind AbhiN into a loveless marriage. The world is not a ideal place, neither human beings. Everyone is unique with some positives and negatives. One can't have it all. Living with someone for his positive attributes for 6 long years while longing for someone who has some other positive attributes is what AK did. Hence, I liked the question by Manjiri.
3. Effect of blurting out of the truth: Yes, as Krinya had mentioned, AK told the truth to tell everyone what AbhiN has done for Abhir. But, honestly, she disrespected their relationship big time. AbhiN may become god in someone's eye, but a man who could not become a husband in 6 long years in eyes of others, a failed man. Now AbhiN will not be able defend her or his defence would not count as he is not even a husband. Then by what 'haq', he will defend AK? Their relationship is now open to manipulations by many.Some would want their relationship to work while others not. People will construe that AK has not moved on but in reality she is in the process. Her efforts to make relationship work may be felt as forced by others inclding AbhiN.
I liked how AbhiN handled the situation. One think till date that I liked about AbhiN is he rarely hides his feelings from AK. He did not get angry at AK for making such a big blunder and he did not even go on backfoot atleast today. He said he is not going to impose the relationship on AK but at the same time indicated that he is standing at the same place. He wants the relationship to work. The ball is in AK's court. I do not want AbhiN to go on sacrifice mode, but let go mode. AK should come clean about where she stands on this relationship. AK can not have a cake and eat it too. I would respect any decision of hers which has come from place of honesty. Else, I would loose the respect for the AK character.
