Very interesting discussion going on.
I agree with all that you girls said, just can't find a reason why they had to ruin the story when they had such talented actors. I wouldn't buy the theory that people wanted to watch only Arnav-Khushi. I'm sure people enjoyed the Payal-Akash side of the story, they loved Khushi-Payal bonding and the most beautiful of all, Anjali-Arnav's relationship...why I even loved Mami-Arnav equation, there was always an unspoken mutual respect and love. The entire team had amazing chemistry, not just the leads. Take Khushi-Mami during the kidnap track, a lot of people liked their bonding. So you can't put it on the viewers saying they wanted only Arnav-Khushi.
I don't know if they have a decent story to take off for a season 2 because all the interesting parts of the story were wasted, Arnav's past, Shyam, what will they base it on?
Was just thinking the other day, the scenes where Khushi goes to Aarav's school in disguise and also Khushi's suicide attempt, I would rate these two as the worst IPK scenes, you could only sit through those scenes because of Sanaya. The truth revelation was such an important phase of the story and they had to come up with something as ridiculous as suicide attempt. If people were able to overlook all these shortcomings, the entire credit goes to the actors, not just the leads, the entire cast.
I have a feeling, 4Lions lost interest around Barun's movie shooting time, they might have even begun work on Qubool Hai by then and diverted all their focus on it. Looks like they are using ideas meant for IPK there. Never mind, no matter what they try to do, I think even they know, they will never be able to do another IPK in their lives !
