1. Armaan is NOT dead:
Reason 1: - Ridhima's reaction today on hearing Armaan's name was a major hint. She seemed to be upset and angry with Armaan rather than sad. If he was dead I would never expect Ridz to say that she wants to forget him and move on. Rather she would have said that Armaan was, is and will be a part of her life and she does not want to forget him ever or love anyone else. It would be the others (read shank, atul, niki etc) telling her to move on in life n forget him but not Ridhima herself. Ridzy's reaction today hinted that she was hurt by armaan and blamed him for something and not that he was dead.
Reason 2: Shanky and the reporter said that he was injured rather than dead. Also shanks seems to be going on about rectifying some mistake he did which seems to be related to AR in some way. If Armaan was dead wat mistake would he rectify.
Reason 3: Ridhima's overall attitude is of a women scorned in love and not of someone who's loved one just died. Acc to some article she will not believe in love anymore. This generally happens when u r hurt or cheated in love.
Reason4: Also they are continuously avoiding saying Armaan is dead. Everytime the dialogues are such that we keep guessing whether he is injured or dead. This is a sign that the creatives have not decided to kill him off yet. If they had we would prob have Ridz or someone say so. As long as they don't say he's dead we still have hope.
2. Shanky is responsible for whatever has happened to the AR relationship someway or the other. and he will now try to rectify it.
3. Sid and Ridz will be paired together. Whether it will be one sided or two sided time will tell. But there definately is a track between them in the pipeline.
Keeping the above points in mind this is wat i think might happen:
Armaan is alive and has left Ridz and gone. No one knows where he is. Shanks is reponsible for this as he prob emotionally blackmailed him into it. There is some misunderstanding (prob because of shank) due to which ridhima thinks that armaan never loved her and that he left her hence she is heartbroken and hurt. She has completely changed and no longer believes in love.
Shanks has now realized his mistake and wants to get armaan back and reunite AR. Therefore i think shashank will now try to find armaan n get him back. (hence the talk of rectifying his mistake).
Sid and Ridz on the other hand in typical bollywood style will start off by hating each other. Then somewhere down the line they might become friends. In true DMG style the guy (Sid) will fall in love with the girl but Ridz might just consider him as a friend (cause it will be extremely unrealistic if they show her falling in love so fast). Sid will prob remind her of the initial armaan. They might become really close friends and Sid will get Ridz out from the shell that she has gone into. He will be responsible for getting 'Ridhima' back i.e getting the lively, happy ridz back rather than this sad, brooding Ridz. Ridhima on the other hand will teach Sid the meaning of true love.
And prob just before SId proposes to her and she decides to say 'Yes" (not because she loves him but because she wants to move on ) Shashank will find Armaan and get him back . He will tell the truth and AR will unite again. Sid will be heartbroken but AR will help him get over her and realize that Tamanna was the perfect girl for him. This changed Sid who now knows wat "love" is will finally fall "in love" with Tamz and this time she will accept it.
Here AR will getother and have lots of romance. Shank will noe get them married fast. Hopefully we'll get to see the husband-wife duo of AR get Sid back to Tam n Yuvi n Naina together. And all the masti will be back n we can finally truly say "Dill mill Gayye".
This is wat I think (or atleat hope) will happen in the story in the future. I know the last part is wishful thinking but atleast the part upto Armaans return is wat I truly think can happen.
