Thanks, first for the Geeta Ma wali compliment and then thanks for your honest feed back. I really appreciate it. I think I will explain a little bit here.
When I started this, in the show Khushi was going through a hard time with Arnav and his family. We were all feeling a little sad for her. So I decided to give her a honeymoon like any new bride would want. Of course since her husband is Arnav, it would not be easy. So everything would have to be circumstantial and not planned. So Nainital comes up as a business trip for Akash. Arnav is forced to tag along. Anjali Di the romantic comes in handy to makes things easy. The events that follow is completely circumstantial as well. The walk on Tandi sadak, the bike ride to binsar, sunset at zero point, being stuck in a romantic cottage on a mountainside, visit to kasar devi mandi etc.
Another point I wanted to bring up was that Khushi proves to Arnav that she can be and look classy if she wanted to - this was born after the water fight episode. Hence the gown.
The whole honeymoon series was meant for Arnav and Khushi to acknowledge their growing attraction toward each other culminating into their final act of love - in spite of the MU. And this could happen only in the magical himalayas. (My own honeymoon was in Manali :-))
Believe me, I thought a lot if I should have made them confess before this. But I think I was selfish. Maybe I wanted to write more about them. Sorry for giving you a long drawn explanation. But I think I needed to get this out of my system. And thanks to you for helping me with this :-)
