victor versus protector
Explanation:
abhibhavak means the one who defeats,
a defeater,
a victor,
a winner,
a conqueror or
where as sanrakshak is a protector,
a defender,
a guardian,
an upholder etc.

But I do not think it is abhibhaavak it is abhibhavak.

Hope that helps.

What are you translating? Sounds interesting!
