La loves ASR, why?

Okay, this is a totally fluffy little post for the weekend.

Spot on post, Anu👍🏼You have listed all the questions that swirl in my mind, when I think about La. And I too like this new avatar of La, who is Khushi's bff and don't want to see her hurt...but under the circumstances, she will.

spot on- I agree; before we all go over soft on the new Khushied LA- we have to note that this same LA insulted Khushi at every moment and the name she has given is an insult though Khushi has graciously overlooked it. LA has always imagined love as something she gets in material terms and there are a number of girls like her- who only love themselves. Being soft over this new LA is also erroneous as it is only a surface change to fit in- no fault of LA- she is engineered that way.

Hi Vistaa!!
I also understood the whole friends with benefits thing and I understood when she could be pacified with expensive handbags. This Khushilite avatar for a man (well actually for his Nani) who doesn't care and said so, confused.

LA's exit should be carefully craftey by Arnav without hurting her- maybe she could be made to realise that love is a different emotion not tied to material things- and this is clear in Khushi's approach to Arnav. it would be good if the fake marriage scenario between Arnav and Khushi is shown to leak out to the press and the drama that follows would force Arnav to commit to Khushi for fear of societal wrath and LA to move on graciously.

I hope she is shown to leave on her own. She did once before and i personally loved the fact that she didnt harp on the separation. She had pride and was on her own terms. How she leaves now is up to the CVs. I hope she remains an ally of Khushi.

Anu, I think they might have shared a great physical chemistry - before the great move to RM. La may have associated love with it.

to me the answer is simple: Lavanya doesnt love ASR. before, La and ASR had an agreement: to satisfy each other's needs. Then comes khushi, who bluntly, brainwashed lavanya into thinking; "boyfriend-girlfriend" relationship have to love eachother.. she pratically brainwashed La into thinking the Nani and Khushi way... La went along with it, she is in a state of trance... she hasnt had a chance to examine any of her feelings for ASR... it is obvious ASR and new LA share no chemistry, and key is that they dont love each other... La simply goes along with the family, as she is browbeaten into accepting their norms. To La its simple: behave like khushi, win everyone's acceptance.. her own feelings havent been examined or thought out at all... the day she wakes from this trance she'll realise ASR isnt the right man for her...

Ooh, I'm so glad you brought this up. I was waiting for someone to see what to me, seems glaringly obvious. La doesnt NEED all this overflowing sympathy for the simple reason that she's not going to be devastated by the Arnav factor. She's not in love with him, or if she is, it is at a very shallow level.

She's in love with the picture. And I dont mean that she's totally mercenary cos it IS a pretty picture - rich, good-looking tycoon with whom she gets on tolerably well (she doesnt seem to WANT anything more) and she has grown to love his family (that is definitely genuine).

She has a deeper relationship with Khushi than she has with Arnav. I found it amusing and telling how her first instinct on getting engaged was to look for Khushi rather than wondering what had happened for Arnav to have changed his mind so drastically.

I also would like to believe that THIS is the reason Arnav picked her to be his girlfriend. He senses that her emotions are not deeply involved and that suits him perfectly. I dont think he is callous enough to be indifferent to a girl who he knows is in love with him. In fact, THAT is the reason he pushes Khushi away - apart from his own feelings!! He knows she would feel things very deeply and he cant deal with that either.

I also dont understand this sympathy for 'how much La has changed herself' for Arnav. So - she's a much nicer person now and has a better appreciation of relationships. How is that a bad thing? And what exactly has she sacrificed??

Having said that, I too hope her exit is dealt with well. It would take away from the ArHi happy ending if she wasnt happy as well.

Gud post👍🏼
La n asr wer couple of convenience..bt la hs changed nw.
I really wnt hr 2 walk out on arnav wid dignity or if she remains dan i wnt hr 2 b khushi friend always.

@savitan - I also think that the physical thing was part of the whole intoxicating idea of being with a tycoon. She will be unscathed. I agree.

@tiya - so happy someone else thinks she isn't in love with him. I think she lost sight of why she was there and her mission became to be acceptable to Nani, not be in love with ASR.

@serendipity - I agree with everything you put. I think ASR made her his gf because she strokes his ego and is not very deep. Is easily mollified. He wants to marry her because of the LACK of feelings she arouses in him. And you are totally correct, that is thevery reason he runs from Khushi.
