Seeing dialogues in the show sometimes, its very much clear that makers stalk IF. So its not any secret for them that noone wants ab to accept gks at once. Lets see what they will do...
I agree that Abhira is what connects me to the show.
I am happy to say that I am pro Abhira and watching for Abhira's journey and this is HER story. That does not take away relevance of other characters. However theres no question that the protagonist of yrkkh gen 4 is very clearly Abhira. As audience I can relate to her more than anyone else. She is consistently written and her evolution is organic. This current version of her where she's sacrificing things or bending/accommodating is because she's unconditionally in love and thats what people do in love. And while I am not thrilled about her being the one making most of the adjustments and compromises, its actually entirely to be expected since she has to survive in a joint family if she wants Armaan in her life. As long as its not at the cost of ruining her career and completely erasing her core values- it'll still be watchable. I still think she is the least flawed character and most consistently written character in the show. And i don't think they have made her the typical "mahaan" FL which is wonderful because that gets grating to watch. She is quite real and relatable. Sam also plays her in such a way that I am 100 % rooting for Abhira.
Armaan is very likeable too because he's also got a solid backstory regarding why he's the way he is. And RoPu makes him look vulnerable and soft. But for me when I compare the 2 people - Abhira is definitely the better person. She's strong, more reliable and more sorted in life than Armaan.
As audience, I feel I like Armaan fundamentally because Abhira loves him more than for his own core personality
One thing i do feel is that in this love story Abhira most of the time is Armaan's strength but Armaan majority of the time is Abhiras weakness :( I hope to see Armaan also be her strength especially during Goenka reveal.
Abhiras influence on Armaan has made him more vocal and expressive, made him choose himself without feeling guilty about it. But Armaans influence on Abhira is making her assume guilt for things she doesn't need to , its making her compromise on things she otherwise would not have. She's getting his companionship and a family which she always craved given her lonely childhood so thats a huge thing. For a person like Abhira who was literally a lost child when her mom died suddenly, having Armaan take her hand and be an anchor means so much that she is willingly bending over backwards for him. Thats not wrong as long as she doesn't lose herself in the process.
I don't think makers will show Abhira melt towards goenkas as soon as reveal happens. Knowing her mom was accused of killing her maasi and abandoned for so many years will not be something she'll easily forgive. I don't see her accepting that her mom could have even accidentally killed anyone and she will dig deeper and find proof that she only took the fall for what Ruhi did as a kid so that Ruhi the child would not have to live with the knowledge of killing her own mom.
