@tangam - i guess my hang up is the idea of saying this is a track. This instance is full on remorse and guilt, his mind is undone, the heart and his life's truth are out and now he reflects on how much he spurned and tormented that which he lives for. I of course think throughout his life, in small and large ways, he will make it up to her. But, I also think that there will be a period of darkness - there has to be for this character - particularly id before he is allowed to show her what she means to him she is shot. I fully believe there will be dark despair for himself and a huge need to be self punished for being the reason for her predicament. He will even tell her she is better off without him - a life sentence of loss for himself, one he will think he deserves - that is how I imagine it. He has that conscience to do it. But my main point for this post is that because he has that conscience and has finally woken up to his misdeeds, he will exact a pound of flesh of himself, not because anyone is waiting for it. ASR is not run of mill, but goodness knows what the cvs are up to. I have been told spontaneous physicality does not translate to TRPs...I thought that miss kiss did very well. 😉

@Zoha - Khushi wont ask,he will do it and if she gets shot, he is going to punish himself big time. When she comes to know of it, she will ask him to stop because him being hurt, hurts her.

@Sharmi - I heard that the hut thing has been done to death - but why cant they. I am for it if it makes sense and it could. I actually would love to see how that complicates their lives further.

@Div - tamatar

@Bubbles - Yes he has love in his heart for her and he told her. But what will happen when she gets shot? He will go to an extreme, again revisiting the pain of losing a loved one (like his mother) and this time he is indirectly responsible. Gul said the character is dark, at that time his repentence will be scary to watch I think.

@Su -there is no way love does not exist here and the scorecards have gone with the wind - except old habits die hard and ASR has kept one on himself.

Anu, I have never been for this redemption track right from the start. In my mind this is a story of two people discovering each other and accepting each other for who they are and growing together as lovers. there is no need for redemption. Khushi loves him enough to understand where his actions stem from. the same holds true for Arnav. When you love someone and you can see the intent behind what they do and not the consequence exacting pound for pound becomes becomes meaningless. If she does want repentance from him then her love will not be the all forgiving kind. So she wont. But him expressing regret is a sign of his love for her. He lied about faking sickness so she doesnt fret over him. now when he knowingly caused pain it will tear him apart every time he thinks of it. His mind will be his own hell. And she will help him find his way out of it.
