She sends Abhi a legal notice (restraining order), which means she is basically instigating a custody battle. Which by her pov she was all but told to expect from Manjari. On the one hand she's making a smart tactical move, if she's expecting to take this all the way to court. Having a restraining order sets precedence that maybe the father is not a trust worthy parent.
On the other hand, she obviously crossed a line and ensured that this case was going to be fought in court; whereas, as the viewers we know that Abhi was not thinking to take it there.
From the characters pov she was making smart moves as per what was told to her what was coming. On the other hand, she didn't really try the talking it out route first - which would be preferable to all parties involved.
side note: why is Abhi pleading with his mother to drop the custody battle in court idea when he is the one that can make that case. Manjari would have a very weak standing so all he needs to do is tell her is not entertaining it...but obviously who am I even talking about? His mommy holds his strings
What are your opinions on whether it was a good decision or not?
