agreed. I also am glad to see him be there for Abhira . I love their bonding.
but madhav's newfound realizations and good deeds dont negate his prior inactions and indiscretions. after so long he is trying to right his wrongs but V, and Armaan, even Rohit have suffered his absenteeism for long. he may not have deliberately been absent but he was not there for many moments that they needed him for emotional support.
Abhira case mein she has an independent equation and bond with Madhav which is not colored by his past stuff. thats why its easier. she knows very little about the past and therefore she is able to be non judgmental and she is able to see and more easily accept Madhav's acchai , see his love for V, Rohit and ofc Armaan and his attempts now to be there for them. Thats why she is able to understand where he comes from and also speak honestly with him and call him out too.
He definitely has not been a great parent to Armaan and therefore Armaan is unable to accept even the good advice Madhav gives now because Kaveri, V trump Madhav in his life. He is finally beginning to see Kaveri's scheming ways etc which he used to turn a blind eye to. but Madhav has never been there for him.
Madhav knows first hand all the crap Kaveri can do and he himself has gone through a similar situation of love vs family pressure and family disapproval of his love. and he has also gone through the aspect of moving on from first love to now loving his current wife. so everything Armaan is feeling in terms of stress of love vs family and 2 women in his life, Madhav has already suffered it all and at a much bigger scale
For Armaan, Ruhi was just an infatuation, no intimacy/children etc. For Madhav he had a really serious relationship with Shivani. It was genuine love and likely she was his first wife and they even had a child together.
So madhav has already seen and endured much more intense version of the things Armaan is facing and thats why he doesnt want him to make mistakes like he did.
