and felt that it was Barun they were seeing...
i beg to differ..ok here is why..
before Khushi came in to his life he was ASR..and it was only because Khushi challenged the way things were done in ASR's life did he lash out at her..
it was because she dared to say No to him did she make that very special place where no1 else had reached for the last 10 years or so!
before ASR was born, there was an Arnav who had laughed, who had been naughty, who had a simple uncomplicated life..
it was that same Arnav who laughed heartily at his di's wedding teasing her.
it was that same Arnav who glued Akash to a bed when they were kids..
so circumstances have made him bury that innocent Arnav and become ASR..
but Khushi has made him realize that Arnav is not dead..he is only hiding because ASR is more powerful..
but khushi little by little in her own unique way has crept through ASR's defenses and reached Arnav..and she is tugging him out of the hiding place..
It was she who made him laugh out loud after so many years!! was it contradictory to his nature? yes..
but did we question it when it happened? NO
cz then we accepted that it was Khushi who did that to him!! and today it is the same thing!!
so what we see is Arnav..or Nannav that NK has told us about..
It is not illogical..
cz the Khushi Kumari Gupta we saw in the first episodes would never be lashing out at another human being or showing that she is hurt..but she is changing and she is showing her true feelings to Arnav..
And just like that Arnav is making her see a completely different side of him to her..
love makes people change..and that is what we see..
it is Arnav who is little by little understanding that he has stolen the very smile he has loved from Khushi..that he has been the reason why her happiness is lost..and he feels her pain and he is willing to do anything to make her happy..
just because he was ruthless and was no nonsense kind does it mean he can never be lighthearted? no..it doesn't..
if khushi is becoming hard hearted by being exposed to ASR's world, Arnav is becoming more prominent cz of Khushi..
Even i felt for a second whether it was ASR or Barun..but realized soon that it was neither, it was Arnav all the way!!
this doesn't mean that when the next business rival does something, he will be polite and wait. He will still be the mighty arrogant ASR who will attack and destroy anything and any1 who crosses his path..
But just for Khushi, just like he had been for di till now he will from now on mostly be Arnav instead of ASR..
