I donโt disagree with you completely, and while I looked at the Apulon scenes as a mere way to get the BH drama going to fill up 15 out of 30mins of screen time, I quite liked how straight forward and honest they are showing Apu, when it comes to the one she loves!
Also, we might see an otherwise level headed Boroma and Jethu go complete bonkers at the prospect of their daughter marrying a chawl wala !
Truth be told, this classism exists in every shape n form , in middle n upper middle class households and it would be Herculean for Apuโs parents to overcome this !
Maybe Ani takes a leaf from Apuโs books on how to stand up and fight for his love - however, whilst Apu literally has nothing to lose, she lacks the sensibilities to realise what she could potentially lose if she went ahead with this alliance, Ani is fully aware !
Makes it so much more an easier life to live for Apu, than for her alter ego Ani !
Coming to J, if she did sacrifice upon Aniโs request, it just shows that 1.5months of not remembering him, meant nothing! Her love for Ani is too deep seeded and will remain unwavered, despite what Ani says or does to her ! Abhi bhi Ani hi hai, who can stir her up, this way or that !
Now coming to Ani, of course, after showing how proud n eager he is to see J flourish, what would make him ask for this supreme sacrifice, I know not! But given the creative liberties, the makers have always taken with this character, I had predicted this a month back, when I saw how determined he was to get Arshi back on her feet and into dancing!
And while there isnโt โromantic loveโ for Arshi anywhere in sight, there is taras, guilt, and a desperate way to come clean of all the wrong doings he has meted out to Arshi by gifting her back what she prizes most - her dance !
Could this request trigger the much needed character growth we have waited for, from Ani ! Where while at one side he is happy and relieved that he has some what dispensed his duties towards Arshi, he sees the wrongs he has gifted J in return?!
Would the fact that J left home coz of him, hit home? Would the apparent closeness between Adi and J , make him realise that he has deservedly lost all rights in J?
Or would it still be like Arshi wants him to believe, woh tumhe use karke waqt ane par chhor ke chalo gayi. And abb AK ko use kar rahi hai !
As for Arshi, I second what you say, she is a mere passing the parcel, a mere zariya of causing the conflict that makes these two khodo the gadda even further! That said, can the makers keep her off our screens, we could do with understanding that everything RuNak is doing is coz of Arshi ! She really doesnโt need to tread our screens for that !
P.S. - Boy, would J not be proud of what she has done for her Arshi didi? Why is she sad? Kabhi Ani ko, kabhi trophy ko toh kabhi kuchh aur , nichhawar karti rahe Arshi didi par!

now having some time to ruminate on the path the story is goingโฆ a few things are clearing up and here are a few my thoughts on them.
Ani continues to try to form a protective cover around Jhanak. Since he is finding it difficult to do this himself, he has tuned into the person he feels he can trust Jhanakโs well being with. I really wish they had given some scenes of Ani becoming aware of Rudra.. especially when Rudra spoke against Shristi when J was unconscious .. anyways while I am a bit surprised that Ani confided Brij truth to RP.
Aniโs helplessness might seem irksome but in the scheme of things, I am not entirely surprised that Aniโs basic traits are pretty much the same. If the makers want to make Ani show some change, it will likely now come with some dhamaka and somehow the Appu Lallon parallel is giving me some hints;
On the face of it, Appu Lalkon scenes seems unconnected, but for me I see some symbolism; I wonder if anyone here see any such symbolism; the use of music and Lallon understanding Appuโฆ After seeing Appa as Aniโs alter ego, somehow the scenes, the beautiful song sung by them, I canโt but see some parallels emergingโฆ like Ani finding his voice when he gets Jhanakโs support similar to Apou getting Lallonโs understanding.
I may be completely wrong about this but I find it intriguing why they chose to bring about awareness in Appu through this mode and juxtapose it at a time when Ani has completely lost his voice.
The time for Jhanak to shine is nearโฆ it is becoming certain it wonโt happen in this way we imagined but like Aniโs issues need a trigger for change, so does Jhanak. Ofc this will drag unfortunately because this story has only this core conflictโฆ there is no other drama or villain in their lives and I am saying this despite Atshiโs presence. Arshi is persona non grata for me because it is a matter solely between these two dumbos
I know what I write may seem like delusion ๐๐๐ but i still see some flicker of hope left in this story. That BTS with Jhanak angry is some form of a startโฆ
If itโs complete delulu phir toh kuch nahin ho sakta mera ๐๐ asmitaโs imarat of hope keeps me going
