Pseudo Progressive Narrative - Page 2

Akshara not loving Abhinav is fine but sending her back to Manyu sends a wrong message, no matter how progressive/regressive it seems to people. It just highlights toxic relationships and in the case that they do get back together, its highlighting that toxic love is better than no love at all which if thats what DKP wants, it's very wrong. From a storytelling perspective, I also see more benefits if Abhinav sticks around long term as they've barely explored Abhinav and Akshnav's relationship. There's a lot more potential for tracks that can happen with him around and has a much bigger chance of keeping the audience hooked. But I feel once this story comes back to Abhira, there's not much material that will last. The story will once again revert to how it was and will cause the show to stagnate again and the makers will once more be at the same place they were pre 2nd leap.

Abhira just seemingly didn't work out as well as Akshara-Naitik and Kartik-Naira with the audience (offline) and hence they got 2 divorces in the span of a year and a 6 year leap and since it was a 6 year leap, theres a limit to how many more leaps they can do cause Pranali is too young to play the mother of a kid who's around 10. So if the show does return to Abhira, they most likely will head straight to gen leap because theres not much to explore and try as the family stuff with the Birla's and Abhira solving their problems failed.

There is care, concern and respect in Akshara and Abhinav’s marriage. They are not fighting day and night, their marriage life is harmonious. There is a freedom to live the way you want since abhinav is orphan so no joint family drama or mother in law drama etc. It’s peaceful nuclear family life. Loveless he sahi , itne saal happily reh liya na! Love hona hoga toh hoga otherwise they can lead their marriage life in this way too. That’s none of anyone’s business.
Swarna and Surekha both were wrong for me. Couples can lead happy marriage life without koi-chi-koo and sex in the marriage. Ofcourse hota toh best hota lekin nahi toh koi baat nahi.

Akshara ko kisi bhi halat mai apni shaddi ka sach aise zor zor se announce nahi karna chahiye tha. Hamesha over emotional ho kar dusro ke liye yeh ladki raita failati rehti hai. Poor abhinav ! Bada shant admi hai jo biwi ne aisi announcement kar do fir bhi biwi ko samaj kar baat kar raha hai. Normal log toh apna patience gawa de aisi situation mai agar life partner aise sab ke samne sab bol de toh!

Agar Akshara abhinav ka shaddi toota toh uske liye akshara 100% responsible hogi kyunki abhinav Akshara se kaiiii zyada suj buj wala sulja hua admi hai.

Like u said swarna and surekha both were wrong...but for me rn AkshNav and Abhira both would be wrong... won't elaborate on Abhira everyone knows why they would be wrong....for AkshNav ... i get your point s*x isn't the only aspect of any relationship...but the need for physical intimacy in any relationship also stems from so many other feelings... from emotional intimacy...AkshNav r friends they aren't a couple...AK pretty much announced it on a loud speaker.... the Kasauli happy family is facade AK created...is it fair to the two people involved here to continue living this lie... don't these two adults deserve an actual relationship

I get your pt. People should be in a relationship fulfilling all aspects. But at the end of the day, this isn't a netflix show or a Hollywood movie. If it was trust me we would've got the AbhiAbhi ship instead.

But it's ITV... A woman entering into 3rd marriage just bcos she didn't have physical intimacy with her 2nd husband, that too when she didn't give the guy a chance to proceed, is a ridiculous argument in the society we live.

Plus, now Ak is with a child who considers her 2nd husband as his father. What reasoning will she provide to the child for changing his father the 3rd time?

I'm all for women empowerment, but AkshNav marriage by all standards isn't worth breaking. And once they were shown trying, things did move fwd. It's just that they were struck with Abhir's illness.

This episode (7th May) was decent ...the screenplay rn is fine

1) Atleast for me the makers have pretty much clarified Abhira r their endgame...u see surekha dialogue....she was mostly dropping truth bombs on goenkas ...things they should've realised themselves ages ago...She had one dialogue where she said on Indian families people stay in loveless marriages due to societal stigmas...there has been a whole lot of discussion here on the forum that without abhinav dying Akshara can't return to abhimanyu because Nav is AA... he's been kind nd nice nd respectful... Therefore AK going back to Nav might not be accepted by the TRP audience which might still be traditional ...so here is the makers answer to that... They're being progressive by showing that it's okay if u wanna leave a loveless marriage even if ur partner is an angel...but again this just a sham ...coz abhimanyu rn is hardly redeemable...u don't get out of a loveless marriage to go to a person like AbhiM...

3) What's with swarna nd her passive have s*x with Nav...jyada hi progressive hogya ITV.... honestly it's a little awkward....i wouldn't want my grandma to give me a s*x talk 🙂🙂

2) Just curious who did the custody case promo says AbhiM nd Precap says Akshara

1. I think if they do want Abhira together, Abhi will have to be redeemed in some way, but that may not be acceptable to the viewers. The way I see it, Abhira will be forced to get married again, and then maybe this time Abhi does give respect to Ak, and they have an equal relationship, or Ak even has the upper hand, which slowly leads her to forgive him and reawaken her love for him. Its a shitty plot, I don't expect too much.

Leaving a loveless marriage is completely fine, and I do like the "progressive" thought, but yeah, it is extremely out of place when Ak basically hates Abhi at this point.

2. Swarna's consummation dialogue was super weird, but I thought the whole thing was weird. Marriage isn't all about s*x. Why does Ak still feel she and Nav aren't married? I mean, according to the Abhira plot, they didn't do it until after the first leap. Does that mean they weren't married? The only real thing is in her mind who is she married to? And for some reason, that is still Abhi. I know, I know, she keeps saying Abhinav is her husband and everything, but then she goes and does stuff like this. No wonder Abhinav was feeling embarrassed. For Ak, her heart was basically stopped by Abhi's betrayal. I don't think she can move on even if she wants to. I have mentioned this before, but both Abhira need to heal before they can move on. The paradox is that only they can heal each other and so once they heal they will choose each other again.

On a side note, I am just so tired of Abhi not growing up. I mean, he still desperately loves Ak, now he knows they have a child together, and now he also knows that she never moved on. How much more does he need before he can start thinking in the direction of actually fixing his relationship with Ak? Why does he instead keep viewing Ak as the adversary? Doesn't he realize that once he fixes his relationship with Ak, things will fall into place? I mean, even Manjari should be able to see that.

That's still sending the wrong message though. No matter how it happens, showing Akshara healing only after Abhimanyucomes back into her life paints a completely wrong image that people can't move on. They need to stop painting relationships as "soul love" when those relationships are extremely toxic. It's unbelievable that the show is focusing on this and not more positive relationships and outcomes. And if DKP themeselves want to reunite them, stop posting stuff like the instagram post that said "The person who raises you" statement cause at this point your just backtracking on the positive thinking your showing with the show.
