You seriously made me re-think this episode. So are you saying that contrary to popular opinion, ASR was not acting out of the purity of the motives that Anjali ascribed him? In fact, are you saying that he hurt Khushi by saying he was faking because he wanted to keep her in the light of being a "conniving and bad person" faking in front of her family so that one day when he has to reveal her in front of anjali that is the face Anjali and the family sees?
wow
Are you also saying that Arnav's real realization comes later when looking at the mirror and that is when he feels bad about what he did with Khushi by telling her he was just faking and therefore undermining her efforts?
That is fascinating and actually falls into the pattern that anytime Khushi has made a gesture of coming towards ASR in a way that is soft or loving, something in him tries to make her hate him.
I too though that in no way asr was saying those things to khushi just so that she would not feel bad. it makes no sense because in order to protect her from one guilt he then brings a whole other type of pain and embarassment to her. Your reading is keeping in line with his personality.
His realization comes later then in the mirror of one more hurt he has given khushi?
