So I was right, it turned out to be anticlimactic with someone Khushi did not even know. But you managed to bring in the past when none of us were expecting it.
You got us all nervous with the prospect of who the guest could be, and just as we rested easy that it's no one important, you dropped the bombshell. Not fair .
I liked how Arnav saw Khushi being uncomfortable and came to her rescue. Also, the fact that he tells her to say No, even if it is to his own Grandmother.
I'm someone who finds it very hard to say No to people, and the same advice has been doled out to me multiple times. But it's not as easy as it sounds 🙈. I hope me and Khushi, both learn it soon 😆.
And I think my favorite part of this update was when Khushi unknowingly pictured Arnav in her wedding reception. To be honest, I had been slightly wary of how their platonic friendship was ever going to turn into more. Especially for Khushi, who is not in the right mind frame to consider relationships anywhere in near future. But this was an absolutely fantastic way to make her think of something, she wouldn't ideally have.
Even if it was only Arnav's companionship that she seeked, she did picture him beside her as her husband. And she realizes the depth of what she imagined! She may try to brush it away as a casual thought but I don't think it's going to leave her alone. Especially after knowing how close it was, to becoming a reality.
Coming to the peak of the update - poor Nani. She is going to highly mortified when she realizes her folly. Arnav has tuned out the convo but glad that Lavanya made sure he listened first hand and knew what damage was being done. So good of Anjali to act immediately upon Arnav's silent request.
Although this opens up a plethora of possibilities... am I allowed to say that I like how things actually turned out? 🙈
I know my opinion is different from most, but I firmly believe that whatever happens, happens for the best. If it was destined to be in this manner, there must be some hidden good in this. Khushi's character has changed tremendously and been shaped by her marriage. Arnav too must have gone through subtle changes in the intervening years. 3 years ago, they weren't the people they are now. We have no way to know whether they would have suited each other then or not... but we are more than sure they suit each other NOW!
I wouldn't ask for anything else 😇.
Still, I'm really keen to see if either of them dwell on the What-ifs later, when they are in isolation and thinking through the events of this party again. Let's see what are their opinions on this turn of events.
And yes... let me not forget the other details from the party -
Akash has it bad. Let me quote something here 😉
“Oh and would you believe his audacity?” “the man was trying to tease me with you earlier this morning.”
This should be what Arnav says to Khushi later... if they end up being together before Akash and Lavanya 😆.
Hope that Lavanya realizes his feelings soonish, if not her own.
Again, I was right about Anjali finding herself a cute guy 😆. Your description reminded me of the time when NK was introduced in the show initially and Arnav used to be super annoyed with him 🤣.
Waiting for Anjali and Mr. Mongoose ki Love story... they are going to need a lot of luck 🍀🍀 to avoid disturbances from the predatory raptor 🦅.
Okay that's all. I don't know why I start writing essays in the comment section. Geez 🙈. Read it aaram se... when you have time.
Love,
Stuti
