and the rest of the family also enabled it
unfortunately it doesnt look like Armaan along the way during his education opened up his mind to question why he was given stepson treatment and made to fight for validation and feel indebted and inferior always. he just accepted it as normal and will lash out if fingers are pointed at the elders in his family for their poor upbringing
its a cycle of toxicity. each one perpetuates it after internalizing the crap treatment they get
Kaveri disrupted Madhav's life, he disrupted Vidyas, she disrupted Armaans and he disrupted Abhiras.
Madhav, Vidya and Armaan are intrinsically good people though. but Kaveri is the root culprit for their flawed behavior. Madhav is more of a failure than Vidya and Vidya is more messed up than Armaan.
