It was impossible since day one to not remind of Abhi(&Abhigya-now that more jodi scenes are introduced). Half of that jodi soul is here and he's doing great job making it all cute,not odd;don't know how it will look the day he will answer back to all these looks&touches,have to handle that point carefully;Mohan sure is not ready and not feeling the attraction which in Abhigya case was there all the time,even during hate times.
Shabir several times said he is trying best to come out of Abhi image by giving different thought process, expressions, gestures, impulsive behavior, sadness, change in looks & body language, more maturity, loneliness etc. as character nuances to MOHAN, so that viewers/fans DON'T get reminded of flamboyant, lively, happy go lucky, larger than life, naughty, vulnerable, child like Abhi.😊Many old KKB viewers after June also felt, there's now less of Abhi in Shabir as slowly able to watch more of Mohan in RM episodes.
E.g. scared of cockroaches, bhoots, lizards etc. and so jumping on bed/sofas, hiding behind Pragya/Dadi/Purab etc. is traditional Abhi mark personality trait which globally many TV viewers over the years are aware of. What's the point of copying Abhi's traits into Mohan?throwing water onto Shabir's efforts by writers/directors/creatives of RM and also making most viewers again starve to go back & watch Abhi?
Regarding jodi scenes of Abhigya ☺️mainly some of those romantic, drunk & comedy ones which were organic to their characters, Nag & team already tried directly copying some into KDB & BL shows jodis, even for DP of KKB, 😔but most viewers didn't give them the same reception as Abhigya, simple.
PS.
Shabir had many intense & romantic scenes in Kayamath before KKB, but there wasn't much comparison or remembrance with his Prachi jodi or as Milind when he was Abhi in KKB & with Pragya as jodi, even when both shows are from same Balaji PH & some plots like memory loss got repeated in KKB.
