Kudos to you for the last two analysis you've posted up for the show. Hope you stay around because this makes a great discussion means for the show.
I wasn't fully aware actually that the show belonged to a Barjatiya member until ast night. Just some scenes/dialogues resemble the skeleton of the movie Vivah a lot and then I had to search it up and tbh it was a pleasant surprise. Because whilst their shows/movies often depict the more "acha acha, happy happy" aspect of society, that exact notion at times gets you questioning that do these things actually exist this way and/or is the reality of how things should be. Nevertheless, Rajshri has a trandition of presenting everything with a charm and it wouldn't be false to say that they do uphold the reputation of weaving an almost fairytale for many of their audiences.
I want to pay heed on what you had questioned in your last post as well as today's - the big question of how to we position ourselves if we are going to meet a potential partner for marriage. I think as such in their previous movies, Rajshri has never pursued the matter with so much depth. The children in Vivah or even hum aapke hain kaun for that matter, were just advised to converse and decide whether their heart agreed for the match. Here however the situation wasn't entirely different in context as such, yet the advisory of the parents altered a little. They almost intimidated the duo (Sanchi and Aryan) to present themselves as the perfect kids of the society. I guess I understand that perception but like you said, it gets us thinking whether that in fact is the more apt criteria to choose a groom or bride in today's date.
You'd want to encourage your kids to embrace a more truthful approach because it is well a lifelong bond. It's a nice contrast isn't it though, the parents are more so focused on the short term aspect of this alliance. They want their kids to be perceived as the "good boy" or the "good girl" by each others' familiars so the alliance is sealed. Yet we tend to overlook sometimes that marriage is not just a journey from engagement to marriage, but a lifelong journey of togetherness. Where not only two individuals but two families walk the road together. And under any and every circumstance you would want this bond's initial steps to be based on full honesty and trust.
For the viewers, when in individual frames, we know already that Aryan and Sanchi are completely compatible. Both very passionate about their life, their families and their hobbies. But the societal pressures and the weak advisory of their parents leads them to hold a sense of dislike for each other after their first meet. I know at the end of the day, we know what this show's plotline is. It'll revolve around the nature of Aryan's and Sanchi's marital bond and how they tackle life problems together whilst keeping the happiness of their families contact. However, what intrigues me is how these two kids who belong to our present society will find a sense of belonging amidst the traditions and norms of the society as well as the more contemporary though process they both process.
Hope to see you around again and sorry for the rant 😆
