I am glad that makers are pointing out the difference. Whatever Armaan has done for abhira till now, abhira has always made to feel indebt to that calling it a EHSAAN by kabhi ru, kabhi kv, kabhi v, kabhi ar himself. But with madhav, she is not made to feel indebted so she accepts genuine efforts made out of love. Abhira's insecurities for being calling out for taking ar ehsaan is so real. Armaan did a big mistake by calling her a BOJH. People used to ask if ar gifts her something in future as her husband, won't she accept it? Definitely, she will if it is like this. Not jathaaoing ehsaan and more connected to emotions.
PS - I am not supporting madhav's character over ar here. Just analysing two different scenes.
Beautifully put. I so agree
To be fair, its not always Armaan who has made her feel bad about what he does for her. it has been Ruhi, Kaveri, etc etc. but he allowed them to say those things to her. In front of him, Ruhi called Abhira a bojh in his life who only creates problems in Mussoorie and even at other times and he was quiet. whereas today when M saw what Kaveri did, he was ready to fight. Thats the difference.
And Ab has actually accepted a LOT of things Armaan has given without ever thinking or discussing money etc because she felt it came from a genuine place of care. but the taunts she got from all especially Kaveri, Sanjay made her feel really bad and then when he himself called her a bojh, ungrateful and suggested she was a freeloader during that Kaveri case and him being angry at her- tab seh baat uske zehen mein baith gayi that he does only ehsaans on her. She knows that he also does things out of care, protectiveness etc but then its hard to let go of those words she has been subjected to.
I still maintain that she was very wrong to break that cars windshield . it was very out of character.
but I can absolutely get why she rejected the car. I wish she had done it without damaging the car
I dont think she is gonna reject everything Armaan gives her. Its a matter of when she feels secure and happy that none of his deeds will be later thrown back at her as a taunt. when they reconcile and get back together on more "equal" terms she will not bring up money and stuff. but until then it will play on her mind
M is a 100% seriously flawed character but the way he is with Abhira is really sweet. he really gets her. and he is an Abhimaan shipper at the end of the day. his methods may not be ideal but in the end he will also help get both together stronger than ever.
Armaan himself was shown to understand and appreciate the contrast - why she rejected his brand new gaadi but happily accepted the secondhand repaired scooty. I am glad that instead of feeling bad, he was able to smile genuinely and realize why she felt comfortable taking something from M today
Abhira is not anti gift or anti help. She will accept help and gifts when she doesnt feel its an ehsaan and when she doesnt feel its exorbidant.
She accepts chorus gang ke little surprises too because she sees them as her apney
And she feels a haq on M as her papa now. whereas she was always denied the feeling of haq on Armaan. everytime she was cruelly reminded by Ruhi that she is only deal wife etc. even when she was on the verge of confessing love, Ruhi was getting DP made and Armaan was letting Ruhi speak of their "deal " shaadi nonstop. but then after her proposal was shattered, her feeling that she has a haq on Armaan also broke. She still bravely kept trying to piece things back claiming legal rights but he broke that also when he served her DP. jiss insaan par uska haq nahi, uss seh voh kuch nahi le sakti.
M has not spent a whole lot of money on the scooty - just a little bit on oiling and repairs which people anyway do to keep their old bikes running and its emotional for her to receive her papas old scooty- as she said- puraana dost vibe from that. thats why she is so gleefully accepting it.
I remember how attached I was to my dad's old Dio scooty which he used to ride everyday. I never wanted to sell it even when it was ancient.
