Thanks a lot. Viewed it just now. Yes Maya will live on.

I'm trying to heal myself watching certain episodes of season 1 lol. But the butter ending has really soured even season 1 because it hurts to see how this gorgeous love would end. Also that Arjun didn't fulfill his promises.
I know these days people are too practical but I am convinced that if Arjun really loved Maya like he said he did - junoon, ibaadat, Beyhadh and his line of jiski dhun dil Mein bas jata hai etc etc - he would have destroyed himself to cure her. He would have given up his happiness for hers. I keep coming back to it but the best example of BEYHADH love I've seen in movie world is that of Aarohi in Aashiqui 2. Despite her love having chronic alcoholism which had little hope of recovery and despite everyone telling her to leave her love or he would ruin her, she said I don't want any sort of life without him. If he can't live in my world, then I'll join his world of alcoholism because I want nothing else than to be with him.
That is the sort of love Arjun promised Maya but couldn't even try to give her.
Since it's unreal, if they really wanted to show us a crazy beyhadh love story, they would've shown Arjun sticking with Maya NO MATTER what she did. They would've shown him blanketing her with his protection, joining her world but would not leave her at any cost.
The kind of love people want Arjun here to give Maya is the stuff of fairytales, not real life.
If Arjun had really known what Maya was capable of before marriage, I don't think he would've married her. He underestimated her problems.
There was however one dude willing to live up to his end of a crazy love story, and would've exactly done what you described here in bold, but unfortunately, Maya didn't want him.
Samay? Lol. He was obsessed with her jism not with Maya. Maya loved Arjun because she saw a man who didn't want her for her looks or her money. Who was down to Earth and had self respect. Who was genuine and his love was genuine. Whose love she believed would protect her and help her. Who she felt would accept her exactly as she was. Samay had none of those qualities. He was just a user.
That's what people on the ArYa fan-boat would always say against Samay.
It's not even clear whether he got what he wanted in exchange for doing Maya's work- the serial never showed that in black and white. Given his cray-cray behaviour, I think he didn't get what he wanted initially (Maya got her cake and ate it too), which resulted in him getting more desperate later.
I wouldn't deny that Samay lusted her at the beginning, but he certainly seemed a better fit for what she thought as love than Arjun. He would've happily isolated everyone else in his life for her, and lived like her lapdog for eternity.
And that bit about Arjun not wanting her for her looks or money is again tosh- he's a good lad our Arjun and his heart is in the right place, but to say that Maya's beauty and her wealth wasn't an influencing factor in him agreeing to marry her is just BS. Make no bones of it- it certainly was.

The kind of "passionate love" you're talking about sounds good in cheesy Mills and Booms novels. In reality, obsessive love destroys lives and mental sanity. Arjun did everything he could to cure Maya, but Maya never wanted to heal.Arjun has no reason to die from guilt over killing Maya. That woman drove him nearly insane, killed his mother in cold blood and destroyed his happiness. She deserves zero sympathy.
