The big difference between season 1 and season 2 is that, in season 2, the lead pair is already unknowingly attracted to each other before they got married. Ishan and Savi have spent more time with each other, through clash of their views, light banters, and affection. Much more than Ishan and Reeva. Inspite of all, Savi and Ishan still have a place of signifiance in each other lives.Ishan was not letting go Savi, even before Reeva came back.
However, there were and there are multiple barriers for them to fall in love and accepting that they have fallen in love. Few of them are:
1. Savi is a very goal oriented girl. She likes Ishan but she will never let the feelings overpower her. This is like any college girl, guy who don't commit as they have career goals.
2. For both Ishan and Savi their teacher-student relationship is a big barrier. It is one thing to get married to take responsibility and other thing to fall in love. There will be a guilt factor as they develop feelings.
3. For Savi, Ishan is committed to Reeva. She is an upright person. Even after falling in love, she will still let go Ishan as that is the right thing to do.
4. In season 1, I always felt that Virat loved Sai much more than Sai loved Virat. For Sai, her individuality took an excessive priority over relationship.
I want that to be different in this season. I never want a woman to be a doormat of a man, but at the same time do not want a man to be doormat of a woman. It should be a relationship of equality.
I feel that Ishan has already fallen in love with Sai, at least a bit. He was in phase of leftover feelings when Reeva came back. Under the pressure of Akkasaheb's health issue, he just gave in to those feelings and proposed to Reeva. Savi is just attracted to Ishan, but she can easily decide to leave him as she is not in love. Hence, Ishan will be the person to block her from leaving the marriage. Ishan was already doing Savi jaap, but Savi never even remember him in happiness,pain and need.
