In the beginning, Khushi did take it as her insult and all and that is why from Sheesh Mahal to guesthouse she did all to answer him in a strong way. WHen Khushi started working in RM then she started getting him and his equation with Anjali and then his words started fading away, his anger had effect in such cases but

BUT whenever he showed anger layered with mean, teasing words, she answered him back to knock some sense or by her acts, if she did cross lines she said sorry if he crossed a line, he said sorry and we know how hard was that for him but she started bringing out his real inner side. He took her craziness as a package of her

After marriage he talked low of her on wedding night but then she knew him very well and she knew something else is there that is making him saying all of this and doing all of this. but he never told her. She had no idea why did he marry her like this. When she knew, it was that bridge and then kidnapping. Arnav always thinks from his own perspective, when he implied you didn't find it important to tell me about Shyam he forgot that he never told her the reason for marrying her before. Anyway then kidnapping and all. That completely changed their chemistry. A man was ready to take her as his woman in the hut, gave himself in for saving her, then carried her in his arms to home, after mishap with his sister got instigated by his Mami and yelled at Khushi. Fine, she cried and made peace with it to leave but then he asked her not to...he reprimanded his act. But when he asked "aur main" she answered true to its nature "agar di na khush hai to kya aap khush reh payengey"

a very straight forward answer because he did exactly when his sister went to an extreme.He blamed Khushi and way too harshly. A fuel to fire, he burned her soul by bringing the contract out. After that she didn't want to explain much. She wanted to finish the contract period and wanted to move on, or wanted to see if he will accept her as her, not as a contracted wife. But he did when he returned her the pearl necklace. After that their paths become one.

There are certain things in marriage, in husband and wife, depend on the type of relationship they have. Besides love, respect and trust are two gauges this relationship gets weighed on. Trus was there but Respect in a true sense for each others' feelings and all started after Khushi's cold shoulder, she made him understand that. She never show "Zid" when she said those words to Anjali about that this child will be your light, she was right. She cares about Anjali genuinely and Arnav knew that too.

They were living under the same roof, so if Khushi was told not to go to her room, Anjali shouldn't be in their room with Kheer either. It was impossible not to cross each other. This was one of the reasons she left. She didn't know what Arnav talked to Anjali and what happened between bro and sis after those rose petals path scenes. Anjali's reaction was hasty. That also showed she didn't understand Khushi's importance in Arnav's life. She did after Raksha Bandhan when Arnav wore Kurta. She tried her whole life but couldn't convince him to wear but Khushi did it.

All these minute details are sensitive among relations in my eyes, we can't weigh down one and weigh up the other.

This last line of yours have summed up very well.

I agree because in his head she was a two-timer or a gold digger and he wanted her to tell him about Shyam and his characterless nature but in Khushi's head was all Anjali and Arnav's equation. She didn't want to bring brother and sister face to face on this. Think deeply, it could have been a cold war in between them which we saw after when Arnav threw Shyam out. That cold war could have other consequences. If Anjali gets separated from Arnav and went along with Shyam in a separate home then her life could be in danger as we have seen how Shyam tried to kill her many times. With that Arnav had no reason to keep Khushi along too. I think Arnav thought out this and kept everyone in this loop for six months. He took away privileges of a joint account and money sources just to see how far Shyam could go. Shyam started using Anjali and that was another reason for Shyam to keep Anjali alive. She was his Bank...😡

He was keeping an eye on Khushi too at the same time. Khushi was keeping her distance from Shyam but I guess that was not enough and I can understand why he was thinking of her so low.

In the end, he embraced her putting everything aside.

I don't think he wanted her to tell him about shyam. The next min he said I wouldn't have believed you if you said so 😆 He was totally messed up in his mind.....i am happy without any detectivegiri or proofs, he just followed his heart ....Khushi not revealing anything was totally justified . Nobody would believe her , plus shyam could turn the tables on her anytime. Payal and akashs wedding would be in jeopardy...she and arnav , jo bhi tha..was at risk..anjali would be devastated.. She thought after anjalis pregnancy shyam will change.

Anyways , I feel really bad for her toput up with shyam in the same house for 6 months. Glad the writers didn't show much creepiness except once or twice when arnav misunderstood her again. They just dragged shyam till the end n it's ok ..at least other characters were not butchered completely for him. That one scene where khushi brings shyam home and he tries to talk to arnav n say it was all a mu, n he took khushis name by mistake , WO wala reaction tha jo dil ko thandak de gaya 😎 For me that was enuf..

I know the daily soap has its own turns and twists, I was refferring to that Arnav had this clear because Khushi did mention Shyam being paying guest on the bride and all during that time and when later it came Arnav had this clear in his mind. The kidnapping track did make him clear from Khushi, they had their own tiffs but he never misunderstood Khushi again.

She failed to connect shyam to arnavs kidnapping..as for khushi and shyam , he contradicted himself by putting everything on khushi so it was clear to arnav that he is lying ..enuf to convince arnav but not enuf to convince the family ..the good thing is , none of them , including anjali , ever connected khushi to shyam . She was never taunted , nor questioned , nor misunderstood after that point.

Superb post & superb creations Faiqa 👍🏼 and sorry for the late reply!

Let me comment here on some parts of your post which I find very striking! [The lines I have lifted from your post are coloured, while my commentaries on it are in black].

"Aap sach mein insaan nahi, rakshas hai, rakshas." [You're truly not human, you're a devil, a devil.] Her Devil vs Prince ...ASR will show her the way to his Golden heart later...She lashed out at him for being alone but it seemed that this was the only way she was getting the strength to hold onto her fears.

This reminds me of a much later dialogue of Khushi : “Pal mein shaitaan, pal mein rajkumar!” - during that Sundari and Shaitaan track! It’s Khushi’s magic which will work on to peel off the layers of ASR to find the Prince Charming Khushi’s Arnav Ji inside this apparently beastly Rakshas!

His polar nature was basically his restless mind and painful heart that were driving the energy from all across in between his beliefs and his disbelief of his previous experiences. Khushi was unaware of it until she understood him very well. This was the reason when he knew she took him as her man the way he was, he took her as she was. Their hearts and minds were tuned into the same beat besides being odd and that was all it mattered at the end.

Whenever Khushi prays to Devi Maiya in her distress for strength, for protection, for help, Devi Ma sends Arnav Singh Raizada right there...and The Knight arrives...At first, he searches slowly - he doesn't know for sure that she's still here. It's only when he finds the phone and bag that the panic truly sets in.

Yes as if that is Devimaiyya’s answer to Khushi’s prayer! Devimaiyya sends Arnav for Khushi not only here but almost always! Again a divine sign!

To rescue her, her knight in shining armour arrives, as the damsel in distress desperately prays for divine help to get out of the dilapidating guesthouse!



P.S. On a lighter note, knights in shining armour in this 21st century no longer arrive in white horses though! They rather seem to prefer white SUVs 😁

For the first time here Arnav calls out KHUSHI...!! ~ so loudly with so much intensity! And Khushi could hear him! And you so rightly pointed out that she will never fail to hear him from now onwards whether she is near or far away from her Arnav ji (reminds me, in this context, of that telepathic connection in the kidnap track too) 😍

Telepathy started from the very first epi, behind closed eyes

"dekho mujhe pata nahi tha--------- [ Look I didn't know"]

For the first time ASR is on the back foot, very much on the defensive mode lol. He realised it very well that he has wronged Khushi!

He was way too weighed down by this guilty and whenever he is in that mode, he always goes on back foot.

AND here he got interrupted by a forceful push from Khushi ( WOW)'..👏Way to go girl, he deserved it big time.

Her anger is what makes this episode so powerful. Khushi threw her anger when things reach a certain level where she refused to take it further.

We saw a raging tigress in an otherwise tolerant Sankadevi here! Fury knew no bounds as Khushi yelled at him, pushed & shoved him back! Her smashing gussa was a sight to see 😯 How she unleashed her fury on the mighty Arnav Singh Raizada in the guesthouse! ASR has finally found his match, hai na? 😄 And wow Sanaya you aced the scene like a queen 👸👌🏼 Her fiery dialogues still ring in our ears : “Aadat daal lijiye Arnav Singh Raizada ki ek chhoti aukaat ki ladki, ek chhoti haisiyat ki ladki aapko yeh bataane ki jurrat kar rahi hai ki sirf aap ka gussa nahin, aap ki poori zindagi ek galat buniyaad pe bani hai!”

I love Khushi here, she showed him the very first time that people with low status also carry big egos. The ego of self-respect and dignity. From that point on he made sure everyone around him never has the courage to disrespect her name or her. This broke that wall of his self-created fears also. She wasn't afraid of him at all and that made her stand on an equal pedestal with him. He got that right away. After that, he treated her with respect but she wasn't in a mood to talk to him.

Reminiscing the guesthouse scene where a fierce Khushi had lashed out at him, Arnav said 4 years later in IPKKND Ek Jashn (mini web series on Hotstar in 2015) : “I was shocked! I was like this tiny girl taking panga with me?” 😳🤣😍👇

haha, I know he mentioned that

Here it seems a fairytale from Disneyland...Like a princess has been captivated by a beast of that palace. Well, he was her Rajkumar too we all know but now the Rakshas snarled!

Yes our Rajkumar & Rajkumari ~ but not from the Disneyland though ~ they are from the Arshiland 😄♥️😍🤴👸

Pal mein rakshas, pal mein rajkumar ...! 🤔

Remember the very first episode where a kid asks Khushi (when she tells him that she is dressed like this because she is going to play a Rajkumari in her school drama): Par aap ka Rajkumar kahan hai?
And the camera shows Khushi looking at the chopper from which ASR will be landing soon in Lucknow! Her Prince Charming in the garb of a devil!

First 10 epis have the lay out of the entire IPK



Soft strains of Rabba Ve trilled here in as their eyes locked 😍🔥♥️ What’s there in their eyes? Love, lust, fury, concern, care, agony or a mix of everything?

‘Her tears landed on his hand and broke the spell.’ ~ This scene was a beauty and so are the scenes that followed!

... just before her arm came down and her body slipped to one side to fall down but heshe falls and he catches her.

Rabbe Ve played again, as he stared at Khushi without any fear as this is one of his habits seeing Khushi and adoring her when her eyes were closed or she was sleeping..... He brushed her locks from her face and wiped her tears, so gently and with such care defying his person who he was and what he was made of... \

This classic, intimate, instinctive pose oozing unabashed passion & restless angst has become an innate feature of almost all iconic love sagas since decades!

The chemistry is not only seen but felt through every fibre 🔥

This habit of removing her hair always remained intact as he couldn't tolerate anything hiding her face! - Yes and this habit stayed with Arnav vis-à-vis Khushi till the end! ❤️

The knight lifted her up and took her to his SUVs in his arms!!

Here’s the gait of a hero with the heroine in his arms 🔥♥️

The airs again rings with Rabba Ve as Arnav strides on carrying Khushi 🎶💕

He gently balanced her form coming out of the car. Lift her up in his arms but his eyes never left her like he was finding the courage to have this separation.

When Arnav lifts up Khushi out of his car to drop her at Buaji’s place, an unconscious Khushi holds his collar! Rabba Ve plays 🎶💕 From now, this (Khushi holding his collar whenever Arnav lifts her up) becomes a recurring motif for ArShi in IPKKND ♥️

This is why when later her hand was not on his collar when he picked her up, that was the sign for him that something is wrong.

Whenever Arnav became distressed she could feel him closer to him and the same went by with him too. They both could feel each others' presence in their hearts. ....

... But there was a connection, a destined one has shown here.

Yes that heart to heart connection, telepathy, two hearts beating in sync 💓💓 Their journey in this iconic love saga has already begun! The divine connect is very much palpable! It had to be there as they were destined to be!

Ah, What should I name this love?

Iss pyaar ko kya naam doon? 🤔❣️

On a lighter note, to quote Sanaya & Barun from one of their offscreen segments (SBS ArShi Teri Meri offscreen segment) : “Tu tera jo dil karta hai yaar! ...” ... “Tu naam de de yaar! Bas de de naam!” 🤣

Thanks dear for taking the time.

My answers are in pink, bold

There are two signs where it was clear that Arnav had thought out everything

First, when he arranged everything in Mandir, the sindoor, manglasutre, and second, when after kidnapping he mentions about the lawyer that he has to make changes in the papers/deed/.he was referring to the contract and all. She was his legally wedded wife by all means.

He kept things in such a way so he can see how far these two could go in their love train, at least that was in Arnav's mind for Shyam and Khushi, but instead it brought him closer to Khushi and Khushi to him. They both explored each others' feelings and all more than ever.

Well spotted,and I always go by his words, he mentioned many times, you are my legally wedded wife. That was enough for me.
