MyThoughts- Epi 968

Who wrote today's episode? Take a bow! Even now, they could keep the hope of ABHIRA happening alive (I am not for any ship, Abhir has always remained my main concern, but I am appreciating the writing. I always wanted that Abhir should get love of all his parents whichever ship they go for).

With a pre- cap everyone thought that AbhiMMata will be bashed by BP and AK, but instead she single- handendly took on everyone.

AbhiMMata: The confidence with which she spoke to everyone was commendable. There was no guilt, no shame. She is not being villan from her POV. Whatever she said, she genuinely believed in it.

What AbhiMMata said has a reason behind it.

1. The biggest reason is the overcordial relation that AK- AbhiM shared in Kasauli. Their behavior affected AR, as she doubted AbhiM over his intentions due to the same. AbhiM's thinking changed over time in Kasauli, and AK's confession did put an end to it. However, before confession their behavior gave wrong signals to many, including surekha chachi as well as AbhiN. AbhiN never doubted AK. But, AK has started getting intimate with AbhiN strongly and frequently only after her convo with AR. Before that all her gestures like hand holding, guarded hugs were felt as friendship hugs, care gestures. Hence, AbhiN took clues from the cordial relationship between AK- AbhiM that whatever happened 6 years ago, is one time incidence and still if he gets out of the equation, a beautiful, perfect family of AK- AbhiM- Abhir is possible.

Hence, Blind Faith of AbhiMMata is not out of thin air. What AK felt and how AK behaved, were not congruent. Yes, above it AbhiMMata was seeing everything with a tinted glasses.

2. AbhiM's happiness: All she could see is her son being genuinely happy, the way he was not happy even when he was with AR and Ruhi.

AbhiMMata still knows that AbhiM loves AK (He still does). He took her name during Kalash ceremony with AR. AK blurting out truth that she lived in loveless marriage for 6 years, has its effect too.

Even when Surekha chachi told AbhiN that AK- AbhiM relationship is like shiv- parvati, during AbhiM accident track, it was not out of thin air. AK's behavior was the reason behind making such conclusions. What Surekha chachi said that time, AbhiMMata said the exact same thing today.

One may feel that they are talking selfish, but both Surekha chachi and AbhiMMata are talking sesnse based on what they are seeing.

AK's decision may look like coming from the place of compulsion to abide to the committment, from place of gratefulness rather than love for AbhiN to them. Hence, them saying that AK- AbhiM should be the couple makes sense from their POV.

I am not blaming AK at all. I am just saying that people around her are not making conclusions on their own.

AK's love confession: AK moved on long back, without realizing it. When AbhiN was injured, all her concern was AbhiN with none of her thoughts on AbhiM. However, her realization that she loves AbhiN has happened just now. Else, all her gestures like removing Ji from name, agreeing to go on date looked like her efforts and not from the heart. She just now said to AbhiN that there is love between them, when AbhiN is not even in the mindpace to reciprocate her feelings. For 6 years, there was guard of pain inflicted by AbhiM on AK's heart, and now AbhiN has guard on his heart of Abhir's wellbeing. AK's love confession has come too late and too weakly in front of AbhiN.

AbhiN: AbhiN is Father first. AbhiMMata made Abhir issue of that of mother and son. What she missed is that the Abhir issue is about Father and son. Abhir can live without AK for a while may be, but not without AbhiN. Even though love can't be compared, AK prioritizes AbhiN over Abhir and AbhiN prioritizes Abhir over AK. AbhiN can even convince AK and AbhiM in future to move on with each other for sake of Abhir.

Do or Die: All credit to AbhiM for being sensible in recent times. Sharma house and Abhir has changed him for sure. However, AbhiMMata pulled him in her vile plan without his consent as she always did. Unfortunately, she is just digging her son's grave. Having said that AbhiM, wants his son to know that he is his biological father. Not for Abhir's sake, but for his own sake, looking at his character curve till now. So as I see it, his love for Abhir is not selfless. If it was AbhiN, he would hv been happy just sharing a love with Abhir without Abhir ever knowing that he is her father. Hence, custody battle is going to get ugly as time passes. AbhiM may play ugly games even while feeling guilty, as he wants his ' Khun' to know that he is his 'Khun'.

I anticipate AbhiMMata's premonition coming true at least for sometime in future. But, it will be love lost in winning 'haq' situation.

I see a big discussion about who is male lead post leap. To me, the main lead of the post- leap story is no one but Abhir. Henceforth, it will be less about everyone else, but more about what thinking, what choices and what fights Abhir picks up, whom he fights for.

My wish: In case AbhiN leaves, I want Abhir to go on an expedition to search AbhiN. ITV has all along focussed on Mother- child bond, but rarely on father- child bond. I want AbhiN to fight for Abhir and moreover Abhir to fight for AbhiN. In Ghum hai..when Virat separated Savi from Sai, he was told a child can't live without mother. Even Vinu chose his mother (Pakhi). But, here, beautifully, there is chance to the writers to explore the unexplored, the father- child bond. It is going to be a battle between two sons: AbhiMMata's son vs AbhiM's son.
