And after seeing all the gushing rivers of posts on his sartorial elegance his strut his style his smirks his shape his shirt now, as far as I am concerned it really is a river in Egypt.

We sure make fast recoveries eh in the forum and it looks like we really have moved on to things more important and highly essential for our daily dose of escapism. I guess it is very true what they say- if at first you don't succeed try , try , try again for what was once a highly distressing scene by repeated exposure is now overlooked and accepted as de facto by a majority. So I have decided to jump on to the band wagon also ' if you can't beat 'em then join 'em!

Me gushing and making excuses- Knowing that she can only slumber under the stars he thought it best to make her sleep outside and he so thoughtfully placed out a thin comforter and a pillow for her so that she could feel safe and cared for while she lay all alone right under the vast expanse of the cold night sky. Wow he really knows her and is all the more concerned about her well being and state of mind even more now that she is his wife.

I think He really must love her for he is made her designated sleeping quarter's right next to his beloved plants and his sanctuary of a pool Waa! I want to cry so badly at his selfless consideration Sniff! Sniff! What humane intentions this man has and I thought him a vile cad and an ass to boot!

Reams of drool worthy pictures and comments have now been posted/uploaded to show his hot Nike and UCLA ensemble. I so agree he looked scorching in it. Wow man he sure did look fantastic eh especially with that sexy sleep tousled hair and the way he lazily stretched his sinewy body, glanced smoothly at his phone before deciding to get up from his warm bed and then suddenly remembered her sleeping outside in the foggy dawn. What a caring sweet man! My heart actually skipped a beat in anticipation of him kicking her awake lovingly and to ask if she too had a cozy night of sleep on the rock hard ground like he had on his soft feather down mattress. Then I and my imagination could have got a foretaste of that lovely bare naked foot of his and we could have had some great pictures uploaded as on ode to his well pedicured feet and a gutter post on foot fetishes and what they can do to a libido but alas KKG denied it, damn her to hell for doing a Houdini! She deprived me of a glimpse of heaven.😡

I so thoroughly enjoyed devouring the numerous posts dedicated to his smirk his muscles his ass his triceps his biceps his whatever's and completely salivated over them, kept telling my heart be still you need to find a real man like ASR soon (never you mind if he is a figment of a fantasy of a soap opera serial), he really is a treat to women but my mind kept butting in and saying but does he really know how to treat a woman. I said who cares as long as you have an eye candy/toy boy like him by your side, self esteem and respect be damned! They broke the mould and threw it away after they made him so I am not going to quibble so shut up already! ASR namaha! I surrender and bow to thee!

(Warning- could affect delicate sensibilities)

There is absolutely nothing unsexy about this Adonis, this Gift from God to Women, This Adam of all Adam's this gorgeous paragon of all manly virtues. I am getting exhausted extolling his myriad sobriquets. What a man! What a man! What a might good man! Yes he is! Nothing he does can be off putting or repulsive so now I am only living in eager anticipation of the next level of appreciative descriptive posts by the many like minded members here so I can shiver in anticipation as I read/visualize on how he delicately removes the booger from his supercilious oops I meant super aquiline nose and flicks it out sexily, waiting hopefully for pictorial uploads so my heart will go giddy when he scratches ever so languorously the crevice between his butt or start panting over how hot was the graceful arch of the trajectory of his phlegm when he spat. I am sure even his morning ablutions must be a glorious sight to behold and the details won't be spared.

I repeat nothing that this man does is icky! ASR is too sexy for this world!

Seriously.. for those still fuming and I know we are a diminishing minority at best

I don't know if it has something to do with being older than the immature or less life experienced who pepper the forum with their 'I dig his ass' posts but to me more than looks and the passable ability to speak English , I expect a man to have a certain intrinsic value system which defines who he is, going for him and garner a special respect from all. for the way he treats women ( let me also add children, pets, those less fortunate and senior citizens) even the ones he does not like and that is where his elan and breeding comes to the fore. Right now I find Arnav's characterization absolutely distasteful and disgraceful, he definitely does not have a single clue on how to behave classily and I am sorry but claiming to have been jilted is no excuse- what separates the men from the boys is the standard of behavior and right now his reminds me of the overbearing playground school bully who wants to bulldoze his way over everyone and everything. A Tantrum Thalaivan!

When I see that sleeping arrangement what goes through my mind is that he still is a bloody disdainful class conscious snob and thinks she can rough it up because that is the kind of lower middle class background she comes from anyways. I doubt he would have the guts or gumption to pull this off on someone of say Lavanya's ilk

I found it pretty distasteful the sight of him lolling on his bed while she continues to sleep outside and even when he discovers the truth and they bring on this whole 'me want to make up for all the sorrow and anguish I have caused' track and brings her to sleep inside as far as I am concerned the damage has been irrevocably done, his image has been tarnished and erasing this act is nigh impossible. The blot is permanent and that is what makes it really sad for let me make it very clear ASR/Arnav was someone that I really liked despite his flaws and rudeness. He definitely had many a pleasing moment for me and was really easy on the eyes. Alas all good things must come to an end.😭

Folks might call him hard hearted I call him dclass and his manners crude and crass for no matter how hot your looks your body your style, your business acumen and success but when you really don't know how to conduct yourself properly with grace under pressure and compassion especially with a woman you claim to be in love with no matter how trying the circumstances your sex appeal is zero zilch nada as far as I am concerned. There are other ways to show your anger- try indifference and ignoring for example.

What is also pretty appalling is the role the CV's play for they know they can get away with such offensive portrayals for all they have to do is make him wear a designer suit and many of the silly females will forget whether they are coming or going or better yet throw him in some tight jeans drench him with water and have the forum erupt with the most nauseating eeehhh hhh awww OMG OMG and move on to the next abusive ground hog day track.

Members especially the ASRohlics/ Barun Barmy Brigade and the Arnavites still expect want and demand Khushi to continue to forgive him, love him, understand his pain and accept his reasons for his obnoxious boorish behavior without much murmur or mutiny even under these intolerable conditions so why cant the same be insisted of him and have his rotten caddish behavior be condemned and exposed for what it is- offensive and obnoxious to women period, yes even to the cougars on the prowl. Don't deny what is the obvious and don't rationalize abuse as forgivable when he seemingly shows his angst or is dressed up sexily. Don't give false sympathy that you get his situation because it demeans us all here and especially those caught in real life abusive relationships.

If Khushi had indulged in even one fourth of the loathsome deeds that he has I think the forum would have been singing a different tune-definitely not give peace a chance!

Honestly I am thoroughly fed up and was glad I had a lot of work the last couple of days to keep me busy. To me what was once an incredibly told love story is now tainted and stained beyond redemption and no matter whatever romance/recovery they are able to pull off in the future tracks it just wont be the same- the credibility of Arnav/ASR, the innate spirit of KKG the original premise of romance and most importantly the viewing pleasure it once afforded has been terribly compromised. There once was IPKKND!

( Yes Yes I am painfully aware also that right now the forum couldn't give a marsupials derriere about my post as they are so super charged with excitement and frothing over the holi/ water fight and KKG-KASR-KKGASR identity crisis)

*edit*

Wow lady, that was a long and sensible post! But sadly, those words fall on deaf ears...

ASR at least the way the character is portrayed, is definitely not the man of my dreams... and I think I have said this on the forum before, in real life, what we see currently, would be one hell of an abusive relationship. It was earlier to some degree... and that was not okay, but this is much worse.

The CV's have always claimed that ASR is a grey character. But I see more shades of black than grey these days. What he is doing is unacceptable... and while I know this happens in real life, right now, it is portrayed in a way that takes away the ugliness of the situation. While they don't glorify it, the portrayal in no way captures the humiliation and alienation a person in Khushi's position might feel.. at least this is presented very superficially...

But then, I tell myself - You're watching an Indian SOAP!! Get real or rather don't get real! 😭

A few years ago, a friend of mine liked this guy who was quite the charmer... except that he did occasionally *lose it* and these outbursts would mean yelling, inflicting injuries on himself and sometimes her. She would justify it saying he would change, but eventually they split and she found someone else.

Her email to him left an indelible impression on my mind... I'm paraphrasing here but in essence she said, "I may not feel the heady passion, the intensely painful fights and outbursts followed by the crazy lost-in-love moments... but I feel his love and his respect have healed me, and helped me put back together my self respect and esteem - that eroded in our time together."

Recently, when a friend called and said her husband was being abusive emotionally, this came to mind. I told her nothing was worth it!

Today, when I see the portrayal of such relationships on TV, I wish I could tell Khushi or even Gopi, the same.

Of course, people might argue that Khushi is not taking it lying down... and THANK GOD she isn't... but I wish the CV's would redeem Arnav's character and stop this nonsense.

I for one, am dealing with this stress by writing FFs where Arnav is not inhumane... because for me, a character like Khushi wouldn't be and shouldn't be with someone who doesn't love and respect her.

Again, I'm ranting... and venting... but there, I feel much better.

Where have you been?

I can't tell you how relieved i am to see your post. I was thinking I am the only one around who is less than enthusiastic in her response to Arnav's characterisation.

I love ASR, don't get me wrong. And I love Mr. Sobti. He truely is as drool worthy as my forum friends are making him out to be

I only don't know if that is enough to forget that he is the heel who all but ruined a girl;s life, didn't even bther to tell her why and made her sleep outdoors on a cold hard floor. Not to forget leaving her alone to deal with the irrational vultures that both their families are.

ASR has a long way to redemption!

And I thought I was the only one who got mad seeing the duvet and mattress by the pool. No amount of sexy eyes and sexy body ( and boy does he know how to use them - he's got my seriously senior citizen heart fluttering away!) can make up for his loustish behaviour.
Thanks, FLS, for this much needed reminder of the hypcrisy of the CVs and the viewers.

Even I wonder that when he is so sensitive to her slightest pains , why does he behave so indifferently when he knows that she is afraid of darkness and sleeping alone? I don't know why the cv's aren't yet clearing this mess yet.

I made a post on exactly the same topic : https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/iss-pyaar-ko-kya-naam-doon/2846095/asr-sleeping-by-the-poolside

But most of the members of this forum seem to watch the show only for ASR's butt, and pecs and abs and stubble, and other assets unmentionable in polite company.

So I guess they would be happy no matter what sort of jerk he was...

I won't be happy unless he suffers the same hell he is putting Khushi through once he realizes what an ass he has been. And by that I don't mean a few tears the forum and can collectively sigh over.

@ fairy ...maybe we are older women...coz we do not led harmones rule our judgement ...
I seriously do not know how can any one with any humanity can tolerate this ...
I mean ..hell even the servants of the house must be sleeping inside ...
all said and done it is serious error of judgement on part of CVs ..on one part they show ASR getting effected with her mere squeal(while putting on the necklace) or amere cough ,,,and on the other hand this sleeping arrangement continues night after night ...
the actor is good looking ,,,,that does not make what is being shown right and acceptable ...

Too much of a manic Monday followed by a terrible tuesday at work😊 But yesterdays scene was bugging me really bad and I had to get it out of my system. I too adore ASR/Arnav and do admire Barun as an actor. What they have done to his character is absolutely appalling and the sad thing is I can never ever see ASR again in the same light. All these Bad Romance scenes and continuing to make her sleep outside is leaving me really disgusted. They have literally indulged in a character assassination of sorts and somehow the magic of Rabbe Ve and their romance is gone a bit for me

*sigh*

its hard to explain how i absolutely agree and absolutely disagree with your post in parts! 😆

but, do cut some slack to the forum waasis.. they want to be happy when they want to be happy.. lets just think there are differing opinions and different people, so different happiness..easier to breathe 😊

there once was an IPKKND and yet, there was this man who threw her out in the rain, threw her off buildings and she 'loved' him after all that.. i don't know who i should 'blame' more then.. him? her? CVs?

the path to my agenda is simple : do what makes you happy! and that's how i got what irks you about this track.. just go back and stick to watching the once upon a time IPKKND's videos.. trust me, it'd be much more relieving that way! 😊

FLS, brilliant and hard hitting as always..👏Guilty as charged, I did drool on his casual look shamelessly last night..But the moment I saw him stretch flex, and then look outside to see if the girl he "supposedly" loves is still out there, like someone would check whether or not their newly acquired pet is sleeping at its designated place, I puked internally..🤢

What the hell is wrong with the CVs?? Why are they so hell bent on butchering ASR's character? Yes, he was always supposed to be an anti-hero..Fair enough, I get it, I am no fool to expect him to be all sunshine and daisies..He is a dark character, not your usual prince charming..But was it necessary to show him as an abuser? Forcing her to sleep outside, on the cold hard floor, without a roof over her head, is plain old barbaric!

I have no idea what has gotten into the head of the writers..For my own sanity I am coercing myself into believing that the writers are not trying to romanticize domestic abuse, that they actually have no idea what a dangerous message they are sending across to the easily impressionable audience..Heck I was all for this intense hatred track, I was ready with my tissue boxes and snicker bars..But this is not hatred, there are a million better ways to show hatred..As you said, he can ignore her, refuse to acknowledge her presence, not pay any heed to her questions, and I would have had no complains..Just like I am not complaining when he is refusing to tell her the reason behind this marriage..That I can swallow, but treating her like an animal, making her sleep outside night after night is not acceptable..Are we supposed to feel better just because he threw in a comforter and a pillow?? No matter how hot, delectable, drool worthy the guy is (and boy he is all of those and much more), I will still never ever be able to forgive him for his atrocities..I am so pissed at the writers, what are they sniffing?

Sometimes I wonder what the reactions would have been if Barun was not playing ASR..Oh well, lets reserve that for another discussion..
