Mother didn’t decide who the son should marry. To begin with it was misunderstanding. If Abhi was blindly following his mother, he would have gone ahead with the engagement with Ar in first place, but he didn’t and called out the misunderstanding. Abhi did dola re dola? He clearly advised Ak to not take up music therapy job at Birla hospital because it will affect them all. But she still took it. Why? Was that the only job left in the city? Why was she so desperate to take up that job? sorry but Ak did dola ra dola. As regards to after leap events, Manjiri told Abhi to marry Ar, but Abhi clearly refused many times. And the only reason he agreed was because of Ruhi’s insistence - though I do not endorse this, but clearly it was not Abhi blindly following Manjiri. The whole custody fiasco was Goenka’s doing, started first by Kairav by sending restraining orders and then by Bade papa by stopping Abhi-AbhiN-Ak from telling Abhir anything and then starting custody with conditions.
At every point, Manjiri has advised Abhi as any mother should do, and Abhi has listened to her, considered her advise but then has taken actions based on his judgment. He has called her out when her actions were unreasonable, however he has done that respectfully. How is that an unhealthy relationship/codependency between mother and son.
Akshara accused their marriage after second leap and solely due to WD. Did she say that when they were together? If he was a bad abusive husband, why didn’t she get those “life imprisonment” feelings or express that when they together.
I agree Ak is poison for Abhi, a sweet poison albeit. He unfortunately fell in love with such a selfish but wants to be mahan kind of woman. But love is blind, and he followed his heart and ran behind her. The biggest mistake of his life, which I hope he sees, rectifies and moves on. 🙏🏻
@pink I was referring to the time Abhimanyu proposed Arohi after fire incident. He clearly said he was marrying AR for his mum. He danced 'ranjhana hua mai tera' with her, sat down for ceremonies, but all the while hovered (did dola re dola) around AK..
Was Akshara at fault there? She sure was. But that doesn't take away from Dr. Birla's actions.
Those great conflict scenes regarding career I haven't watched with much interest so am not recalling them accurately.. I will take your word on it.
@green And where's role of Manju in the whole custody fiasco? She was the one who lied & instigated her son that Akshnav took Abhir to Kasauli without informing due to which Abhimanyu landed uninvited in Sharma house.
Then she instigated Abhinav to leave his family for her imaginary happy Abhira family dream.. Her insolence and shamelessness triggered the chain of events.. BP was way out of line in his custody proposal but that doesn't cancel out Manjhari's vile actions.
@red Not always but frequently Manjhari has just manipulated and misguided Abhimanyu.. sometimes by crying, sometimes by fainting, and sometimes by explicit statements.. and he has always (except a handful of times) followed her wish against his heart & better judgement. That's blind following for me.
@blue Abhira are clearly incompatible.. (narrative returning to them despite everything that has transpired bw the two is ridiculous but that's for some other post)...
So coming back, blinded by first love they thought they'll make it work out.. and things kept on piling up until it blew out on WD. Most of the people realize they're in a toxic cycle once they come out of it and experience something better. That seems to be the case with AK. Dr. Birla's reasoning of running behind Akshara till his last breath goes over my head bcos this devdas kinda narrative is beyond me.
