After all the positivity here, I went and watched the episode. It was amazing, really got OG Rishta vibes back. Abhira family moments were amazing !!! I wish they didn't give us that horrible precap, for me at least it puts a damper on my current enjoyment. Abhi and Ak are indeed in friends mode, but the natural chemistry between them makes even innocent scenes look romantic lol. One thing I am glad about is that Abhi is in a deep freeze. He didn't even look at Ak when she was dancing. He is happy she seems back to her bubbly self. The evolution in Ak has been drastic the past few episodes. The less anger she has for Abhi, the more her true personality shines through. The last dancing scene was really Thu Thu Thu. First Abhir joined Abhi and then Ak came and joined them. Ruhi was off with Nav.
I am trying not the think about how this is going to progress. I have accepted that Ak loves both Abhi and Nav, but I just wish they wouldn't use the same Abhira scenes for Navshu ( same song, swing scene, drunk confession etc). People can fall in love again, but every relationship is different.
Manjari flipping isn't too surprising for me either. As long as Abhi is happy she is usually fine. And now Abhi does seem happy. I was also so glad to see him actually happy in so long. He looked so young and full of energy. I think Ak and Arohi did too. Only issue is Nav, he still looks same tired. They did show him seeing the Abhira family scene but I think he was just confused. These people were at each other's throats just a few weeks back. And I doubt he knows anything about Abhira or even Manjari in that equation.
