This can also explain why he feels regret so quickly because it involves the topic of the loss of parents to which we know Arnav is extremely sensitive!
But on the same line, Arnav is no different from her because...he is accusing her of hiding behind a smile, but he hides behind his stern/angry young man mask too! He hasn't been able to deal with the loss of his parents either...so who is he to pick on Khushi about it?
