I don't see how Om can become Shivaay, actually. Shivaay is naturally cold and naturally ruthless. He's always had ice in his veins, without any trauma, provocation or outside influences making him this way. All his life he's had money and power, his family who adore him, even a few decent girlfriends. The coldness and ruthless cruelty in him --that has been there, throughout. He is truly Tej's real son, with just his brothers keeping him somewhat human all this time. Anika fought with the original Iceman. Even now, she's got herself a man who thaws only for her, but is the exact same person he's ever been, to everyone else.But this change will lead to a rewritten Omkara. Om would be destroying himself, completely, if he is ending up with Svetlana even for the short term. His beliefs are based on goodness, truth, love and loyalty--all elements she is singlehandedly the anti-thesis of. Putting on the icy, deal making SSO mantle would be more damaging for Om, since it would have to come at the expense of his principles, beliefs and nature. And it wont get better-- living with Svetlana is enough to sour anyone, and it might be the "obstacle" to him and Gauri later on.
