it is not Abhira but Armaan who told her to hide the deal terms from family.
She is guilty about hiding the deal truth from his family which she expressed multiple times including when she was drunk on holi
She wants to get that off her chest. It is Armaan who has forbidden her from talking about it.
When she got kangan from Vidya she was upset and immediately told Armaan because she doesnt like misleading family.
She proposed the deal terms because she knows that taking a dying promise to forcibly marry is not fair. She did it for both their sakes so that Armaan also can draw comfort in the fact that he is not bound to her forever against his will. she saw how troubling it must be for him to marry someone who isnt his choice.
Spinning this deal into something that Abhira did out of spite or out of cunningness is highly inappropriate interpretation because it was definitely not like that.
Abhira brought up deal as a lifeboat for Armaan and herself and Armaan grasped it with both hands. if it was all on Abhira and she is to blame for deal, then Armaan wouldnt be harping on "deal shaadi" himself. he can maintain that he will honor his dying word which is to LIFELONG nibaho his commitment to Abhira. He should not have told Ruhi also about the deal because deal toh sirf abhira ka kiya hua "drama" hai na. but fact is at the time, he also saw the deal as a nice compromise. something that eases his guilt. he can support his guru's daughter until she is independent and then let her go away - that way he will feel like he paid back the karz of someone taking a bullet for him and he wont forever be tied to anyone either. mutual win win
abhira has fulfilled a bahu's responsibility way better than Ruhi ever could. she has stood up for the family, protected them, and does all the cooking vaghera stuff that others do as well. She has taken a stand for right things and not to simply create tamasha and more people are recognizing that everyday. thats why she is the go-to person for all the cousins when they are in actual trouble. people are acknowledging that she is challenhing the status quo and making things better instead of mindlessly following tradition. on the other hand she is rooted to her values and she was the one to remind everyone about Saraswati puja instead of doing Valentine party. And infact she convinced Kaveri to not force people to attend a puja because devotion cant be forced. aise sabko saath lekar Abhira chalti hai. not the bahu who is misleading whole family about something as crass as having romantic feelings for one brother while being married to another. Deal shaadi is still a real shaadi and not fake shaadi. but to marry one brother to be near another is cringe and all the laad, pyaar, dulaar she is getting for being Rohits wife would never happen if she lets them know how she really feels. So thats a WAY BIGGER lie to tell than what Abhira is doing
And Abhira is guilty about that lie but Ruhi is not even guilty about playing with everyones feelings but fantasizing about another man - that too brother of her husband who is now legally married to another woman himself.
