Abhira story when it started i wished to see another version of OG Akshara and Naitik relationship. But writers failed immensely. They wanted to bring change, but it did not work. With Akshnav i started liking them more the family they set in. They could have moved ahead with a story with them but may be the market demand is not there. We viewers will stop watching if we do not like what they show. Would also watch the TRP trends to see if Rajan Uncle did a right job.
Abhira def failed due to lack of understanding but also due to incessant tragedies one after the other. I think they tried really hard and then lost it when things got too bad. In Contrast nothing that bad has happened between Navshu, except for Abhir's issues and they are both aligned in that.
But...the bigger issue for me is the story of Akshnav as a couple. As a family, I agree that they were really good. But as a couple there is no proper evolution. People just don't fall in love with people out of gratitude or just living together. They should have shown more compatibility and more spice in that relationship. But their whole goal was not to create a new relationship with Akshnav but to create an opposite of Abhira in every way. To the extent where Nav demeaned his own relationship by saying it's not a great love story and he doesn't believe in passionate big love etc. And this was repeated in every way. Sometimes they tried to emulate Abhira by showing same scenes and sometimes they went exactly against Abhira by giving opposite dialogues.
My point is, Akshnav was built in contrast to Abhira and had no identity of its own. There were some cute Sharma family moments that were unique, yes. But nothing about Akshnav was unique or interesting so the ship failed.
