Redwine,
Let me start from the begining:
How did they first meet? - Because of payal's marriage that is when their hate track started...
Why did she come to his house? -- because of anjali -- that is when their love started
After Lavanya, who got them together? --- It was payal, her marriage but that time it was hate + love
Why did Khushi keep the truth of shyam from teh Anjali and Arnav? - because of Anjali's obsessive love...
Why did they marry? - Because of Anjali (and that time that was no lover who was marrying her, it was only the brother) --- hence began the hate track...
But because the love had bloomed, even though they hated each other they still could not live without each other (thus the tagline) and hence Arnav's guilt after marriage , That time the brother was justified but after the holi confession it was the lover who came into the picture, because before that there was no formal declaration of love. Hence arnav was never sure about kHushi's love. he firmly belived that she loved Shyam but his punishment was only as a brother. If the holi confession would not have happened, then his redemption would not have make sense because the lover never sinned it was the brother who had sinned and he was justified in his action. But now the lover will remorse. because he did not believe her.
At this moment it is the fourth promo playing and now the Nafrat has changed to mohaabat...how the story goes from here will depend on whom Anjali believes, the brother or the husband...
Edited to add: The holi confession also happened because of Anjali as she made kHushi drink the bhanag and the actual also happened becasue of Anjali because she panicked and shyam was forced to make that call
Pam .. again i ask u ... they have used a character ( albeit an important one) to bring the 2 main leads together ... if u apply ur own logic & see ... except the meeting ... isn't Shyam equally responsible to bring the lovers together ... whats more to also keep them apart ... so is Shyam the central character ...
whatever u say makes sense if u feel this is a story about siblings ... but thats where i differ in ur POV ... c we both are saying the same thing watching the same thing ... but our interpretations are different ... u feel its a story of siblings .. hence all that is happening is happening due to them...
I feel this is a love story ... so i feel the siblings are a means or props for the lovers to meet ...
Same point different visions ... hope the PH reads this discussion today .. they will be floored with the divergent interpretations ...😃
Shyam Anjali and Arnav and Khushi are all central characters! That is why the story is built accordingly! Arnav and Khushi are pushed together time and again by Shyam and Anjali only! Had it not been for them the realization of feelings would not be there and neither the marriage and neither the ILU. Everything is guided by Shyam and Anjali for Arnav and Khushi.😊
