It is a clear case of blind copy pasting from Imlie. It doesn't make any sense in KKIS. You can't suddenly show a character like Gun being attached to sindoor. Whatever maybe her feelings for Anu this is not the girl who does sindoor jaap.
I don't know if it's a blind copy/paste from Imlie....lol woh toh aage hi pata chalega if bigamy goes through and Gun lands up in K house as secret first wife of Anubhav.....lol
Gun's attachment to the sindoor is not that far fetched given the headspace her character has been in since the party tamasha....she's been shown mostly off balance since that day with her heartbreak over her mom's betrayal, Anu's hurtful words, Ks cutting off from her - she's been trying desperately to either distract herself with things or missing Anubhav terribly. Her dad has been her only anchor through it all but ultimately she still loves and misses Anu no matter how much she tries to deny it. She is craving some connection to him, that is why she organized that breakup party and now wanted to buy this ring as his wedding gift....she keeps saying these are last goodbyes from her side but her yearning for him clearly shows now. The CONNECTION as Golu gang and Garima like to talk about😆
So with all this backdrop, that moment when Anu put the sindoor on her and so fiercely called her his wife, talked about how sindoor ek hi baar lagta hai etc....her fragile state of mind latched on to that. She is ultimately a very naive and lonely soul who tries to hide all her vulnerability behind her bratty demeanor....all she actually wants is to be loved for who she is and if she gets a semblance of that from somewhere, her naive heart latches on. Anu may be mockingly calling her Papa ki Princess....lol but point wohi hai ki she's a pampered kid who just wants to feel safe and protected...in that one moment, Anu became the first guy other than her dad to protect her like that and that is why her fragile mind further connected to him, to the sindoor through which he connected himself to her.
Anu toh has no integrity left. He is also shown so callously ready to marry Akriti while still having feelings for Gun. This guy was ready to marry Akriti but had problem with Gun being married. Ronnie doing forced shaadi is irrelevant. He got hyper without knowing it was forced with his loud shut up. Now again he is the one who believes in sacredness of customs but still goes back to wed Akriti. Matlab banda chahta kya hai. He is coming across as an assh*le.
LOL Anu is a hard character to defend right now, no doubt😆.....but when I see people actually claiming that characters like that creep Professor Shaurya from SAKK are better than Anu, then I feel compelled to defend Anu as a more humanly sketched character even with his current flip-flopping behavior😆.
Makers have bungled the writing for why Anu has agreed to marry Akriti all of a sudden and isn't even showing enough discomfort with her acting familiar with him....but looking past all that, the truth is that he still hasn't realized his feelings for Gun toh kahaan se admit karega? lol....his feelings for Gun show in his fiercely protective actions for her but he hides all that behind his caustic words since he feels Gun is the one who doesn't like him....lol...it's a game of one-upmanship ki who can pretend first that they don't like the other taaki kisi ko pata na chal jaaye that they ACTUALLY like the other😆.....
Everything he's doing is an exercise both in running away from his feelings for Gun and trying to get a reaction out of her....shaadi toh yeh zombie mode mein kar leta shaayad Akriti se but would have struggled to function after that even if this Ronnie tamasha hadn't gone down to compel him to run to Gun....lol
Agar bande ko pata hota ki woh chahta kya hai toh story is haal mein nahin hoti 😆....aise toh Gun ko bhi nahin pata woh kya chahti hai....lol she hasn't realized either why she is so heartbroken over her rishta with Anu breaking and she doesn't realize that she did actually want to marry him....yeh itni badi baat kaise admit karenge dono jab itne time tak tashan maara hai about not wanting to marry each other😆
Imlie's complex context cannot be copy pasted in this show which has completely different characters & backgrounds. Manan is otherwise a decent actor but I think he is not able to portray Anu's conflict properly because he may not be able to understand Anu's sudden switch.
Actually I feel Manan did a good job in this epi of showing Anubhav ke emotions for Gun....the angst was there.....only time he drops the ball is in interactions with Akriti cuz those all look contrived and very poorly written that he suddenly starts talking normally to her.
