Abhimanyu has been brought up in a dysfunctional family, where he has seen none of the man in the family be it Harshavardhan, Anand or Parth has ever supported their wife in their professional growth.But Abhimanyu basically supported every other women around him in their professional growth.
Manjiri : Abhimanyu always saw his mother getting abused physically & emotionally in her marriage, since his childhood. So, when he came to know about his father's extra marital affair, he asked his mother to come out of this loveless marriage. It was Abhimanyu, who stood beside his mother, gave her support & courage to divorce Harshavardhan. He freed his mother from an abusive marriage. He always supported her singing, always acknowledged her contribution & role in Birla house hold. He also gifted gifted her Sitar, so that she can restart her passion.
Shifali : Initially, when Parth- Shefali used to have major arguments regarding Shefali's working hour , Abhimanyu always used to support Shefali & used to ask her to focus on her work & achievement.. When Abhimanyu came to know about Domestic violence, he stood by Shefali & supported her.. Not just that he also asked Shefali to re join & restart Journalism, which she left 6 years back.
Mahima : Abhimanyu has immense respect for his taiji & always used to respect her talent. He never looked down upon her or taken her advice for granted, just coz she is a woman. It's a big thing because we saw how Harshavardhan & Anand used to always ignore Mahima & nullify her contribution in Birla Hospital. Even when Abhimanyu became MD of Birla Hospital, he always felt that Mahima was more deserving. After Neil's death, he left his MD position & made Mahima, the new MD of Birla Hospital.
Akshara: Abhimanyu has always supported Akshara in her music career. Abhimanyu always stood for Akshara whenever Harsh used to humiliate Akshara for being a music therapist.. He even gifted Akshara, a whole music department in Birla Hospital. Even when Abhimanyu's hand was injured & he was sitting at home while Akshara was rising in her career, Abhimanyu had no jealousy, something which is possible for any husband.. He has always supported Akshara's music career when every other person around Akshara mocked her for singing.. And even today, it was Abhimanyu because of whom Akshara was able to give her exam & become a lawyer. Abhimanyu very well knew that Akshara wanted to become a lawyer so that she can keep Abhimanyu away from Abhir legally, even after all this he helped her in giving her law exam. After becoming lawyer Akshara's first case will be against Abhimanyu only but still he is happy for her for becoming a lawyer.
Aarohi : Probably, this is the most complex relationship of his life. Aarohi has always created problems in Abhimanyu's life. She blackmailed him, mocked his fatherhood & even plotted against him many times. After Neil's death, he forgave Aarohi & made peace with her. Today Aarohi is a senior doctor & an important member of Birla Hospital medical Board. Has this been possible without Abhimanyu's support given she was a single mom. Aarohi herself accepted this in front of Goenkas that Abhimanyu made sure to be with Roohi so that she can fulfill her professional goals . He infact took a backseat in his career , he is no more MD of Birla Hospital , so that he could give that time to Roohi, which in turn gave Aarohi time to grow in her career & fulfill her professional goals.
Abhimanyu is a feminist in true sense. He has always supported every woman around him to grow in their career. It's just that he never created fuss about it, he did most of the things silently. He is always a giver.
It's sad to see that Abhimanyu did so much for others selflessly but none of the woman mentioned above has ever understood Abhimanyu's pain ,trauma & loss. They all are still using him & will kick him once their purpose is served. He is a mahadev bhakt in true sense " Na apmaan ka dar, naa samman ka moh "
P. S: This post is solely meant to highlight Abhimanyu's contribution & role in the career growth of the woman around him. So, please refrain from bringing any other topic here.
