Fantastic post dear.

U spoke my heart aloud.

We all love ASR but do expect certain things from him which of course as rightly said by u is in no way going to change him.

Thank you 👏

If i was that twitter user to whom this comment was made i would hv told

Look Mr GH, ur IPK and 4 lions is a bachha , a tiny kid in star plus. IPKKND is just 1 year old in SP. While my association with star plus as a viewer dates back to kaun banega crorepati days in 2000. You are no one to tell me to change, iam paying my cable bill for entertainment and star plus is my priority channel, Iam watching the ads coming between for which ur being paid indirectly by producer. 4 lions launched with geet in 2010 and IPK in 2011.Its an infant, while my association with star plus is of two decades.
So why should i change my 8pm viewing from star plus.Better u people change urself or close down this show.Iam ready to watch another show at 8Pm.i will not leavr star plus, better u leave.
We are the consumers for whom ur family runs, So dont say dekhna hai to dekho.
i wud say ..accha story dikhana hai to dikhao or else vacate this time slot which is very important in prime time Tv industry.

exactly! people with childhood troubles do not behave like people with happy childhood might do...both Arnav and Khushi are orphans... Khushi owes her life to her foster parents whereas ASR achieved a lot when very young and doesn't believe he owes anything to anyone... both these things lead to problems...

You know what? In reality, I think even if the CVs would ...just for ONE episode SHOW ASR having the flashbacks of the way he had treated Khushi in the past and that remorseful expression on his face, with OR without tears ...doesn't really matter!

What will matter, will be the mighty Arnav Singh Raizada accepting his faults and WILLING or rather pledging to do RIGHT...for and by his wife.

What he is doing right now...standing up for her and her integrity is definitely awesome...but sometimes just a SIMPLE acknowledgment of your faults and a real yet simple promise to vow to love each other to death and to be with each other in all times, could do...wonders. It can heal wounds, not even known to the person who had been hurt!

We don't want a redemption because we derive some sadistic pleasure from watching ASR in pain..or not even because Khushi deserves all that (She definitely does) but now, its not only limited to justice for Khushi...now, its about THEIR future TOGETHER...with NO shadows from the past...

And for that, its always best to fight the demons from the past, even if they no longer exist, they just must be faced once, to get hold of the reality and the great opportunity and capability and belief and hope and strong faith...that lies in ones future.

Bang on Rima...
Redemption has been overused and I think misused...I tihnk the word does not do justice to what we are asking for...
ALL I REEALLY WANT IS FOR THE TURTH REGARDING THE MARRIAGE TO COME OUT...

What I personally want is first- an admittance from him regrading what he did...He used Payal as his bait...so she is the first person who needs to know that her sister has suffered because someone was blackmailing using her as the reason..
Nani needs to know that her chotey did this mistake
Di needs to know to what length her brother mistakenly went to saver her life...if tht doesn't prove to her how much her brother loves her..really nothing ever can
Akash needs to know tht his brother who he almost worships and "who wont go beyond his word" actually used his devotion to ASR and his relationship and love for Payal as a blackmail tactic to force Khushi to marry her...

The family - in front of who - Khushi was called bad things...(Nani herself had said "chotey to yeh sab baatein nahi samajhte AAPKO to samajhna chiahye tha" - she was questioning Khuhi's judgement without knowing tht she was helpless); Khushi was ill-treated; for NO FAULT OF HERS...
That family deserves to KNOW that it was HIS FAULT and NEVER KHUSHI'S
The family deserves to know the TRUTH..

LASTLY and not the least...the GUPTAS need to know..she is their daughter...they need to know that when TEHY HATED KHUSHI- she was HELPLESS..SHE WAS MDE HELPLES...THEY DESERVE TO KNOW THAT SHE WENT THROUGH HELL TO SAVE THEIR OTHER DAUGHTER'S MARRIAGE

EVERYONE DESERVES TO KNOW THAT ARNAV NEVER CONSIDERED KHUSHI TO BE HIS WIFE ALL THIS WHILE AND THEY WERE BEING MADE FOOL OF WHEN THEY WERE MADE TO BELIEVE THAT KHUSHI AND ASR ARE HAPPILY MARRIED...

They deserve to know that HE HELD KHUSHI wrongfully responsible for an alleged relationship with Shyam...they need to know he kicked her out of the room on their wedding night and treated her with nothing more than hatred and called her "disgusting" BECAUSE HE WAS UNDER A MISCONCEPTION...

I really havent made ASR say sorry once in all of this..so theres no question of ASR Being a cry baby or sorry-saying machine...
I think everyone is weakening and diluting and undermining ASR's character and strength by protecting him from a guilt he should have..

All I want is for ASR to MAN IT UP - to KHUSHI AND EVERYONE ELSE...

ITS NOT ABOUT ASR..ITS ABOUT THE TRUTH...
Shyam did something terribly wrong..and his truth deserved to come out...
Why not ASR's??
IS ASR a weakling that he needs such protection?
Does a man always have to shed tears to accpet his mistakes (not tht theres anything wrong with that). In fact will admitting his mistake make ASR less of a man?? IF AT ALL...it will make him even bigger ...

If there is one word which is used and abused in the forum it is 'redemption'

Whenever people say they want redemption from ASR there is always one more set of camp who says 'We don't want ASR to cry'
'We don't want ASR to be Devdas'
'We don't want ASR to say sorry. He has already done enough'
'Why is redemption needed? Hasn't ASR suffered enough?'
'Khushi has also made mistakes'
'khushi herself doesn't want it'
Well, well, well...
First about ASR crying
ASr cried for his di,
ASR cried after terrace scene,
ASR cried for his mom,
He almost cried for Khushi when he thought she is dead...
So he is capable of crying and we are capable of accepting him crying.
So will it hurt to see two drops of tears (Ok even one or may be a droplet😊) having Flashbacks of how he called Khushi characterless and threw her stars and how he threw her to the pool side etc? Come on ek droplet to banta hai boss so what if he has made her smile recently. He has made her cry so many times.
About ASR turning into Devdas
When ASR ran after the ambulance and kept hurting over the terrace scene he was Devdas and we did accept it. Now do we want ASR to have a drink in his hand and seek a Chandramukhi to relieve his pain? 😃 Defenitely no
All we want is for him to realize that one innocent life and the dreams got lost because of him...something he seems to realize a little already. But if he gives her the dream marriage then he will return her dreams and dignity. Why her dreams, they are his dreams too. What is wrong in restoring dreams? Or for that matter what is wrong in realizing mistakes? That is the first thing towards maturity...when you realize you are wrong. I would say ASR is becoming more mature by admitting his mistakes and not becoming a Devdas
Redemption not needed because he has suffered
Of course he suffered. He has loved the girl and almost agonized over the fact that she is his Di ki saut and she loved another man.
He saved her from goons and now he is protecting her and giving her love in his own way.
People say ASR speaks through his actions
But, but, but...when he told her she is characterless, or threw her out to the pool side or said he wished he had never met her or faught with her after Heer Rabjha...he was inflicting his pain on her.
So you see he took out his pain on her, whereas Khushi has not been able to and that is why Khushi's pain needs an outlet through more nice gestures and some equally nice words from him.
Come on. It is the same person right? If he can say bitter things will saying nice things change his character? No
Khushi has made mistakes too
Sure she has. She hid Shyam's truth...but for his sister and she suffered both from Shyam and ASR
Khushi gave him public bath, deprived him of food and played so many pranks on ASR...sure she did...but anyone in her place could have actually done worse. But she did not.
Do you know when you shoot in self defence it deserves lesser punishment in legal courts? Like that Khushi was lashing out after being hurt, but she never inflicted the first wound
Khushi herslef doesn't want it
Sure she doesn't. She has a large heart. She has forgiven and forgotten.
She loves him. She will forgive him a 100001 wounds. And that is the way it should be. Holding grudges is not love
But, but ,but ...we are the viewers. Imagine a child being beaten by his parents regularly. The parents forget. The child also forgets after they give him some lollipops. But if you watched the scene you will feel bad for the child. You would want the child to be loved more, pampered more, understood more...
That is what is happening to viewers. Anyone wanting redemption is not an ASR hater, but simply a human being wanting to see some joy and justice done to a suffering human being
So those who say they are ASR lovers in wanting no redemption are totally wrong.
I find myself a bigger ASR lover in wanting to correct himself, evolve, mature and become the superb person that we can all adore. That will not ruin his character at all. He can still fight with Khushi over other things or be strong with others like Mami. Don't tell me he can be ASR only if he is mean to Khushi.
Tell me who loves him more? People who want him to be loved by becoming better or people who want him to be just as he is and keep on making mistakes for which he will be bashed?
So the whole logic of who loves ASR more is debatable...one love is like a mother's love that corrects the child and the other is like a spoiling mother who does not correct the child
PS: ASR is the best fictional character I have seen on TV. He is like Heathcliff of Wuthering Heights. But Heathcliff never corrected himself and became a villian. But ASR is capable of great love and compassion and he is capable of evolution

Even THE MIGHTY ASR could have confronted them instead of ruining her life. Why did he run away and started crying like a baby in his room?

She didn't tell everyone cuz she didn't want to break her sister's marriage AGAIN!

with ASR she has not tinkered too much with his intrinsic character and right now he is being built up at the cost of hers I would have admired her if she had made it a fair fight
If both had retained there core instead of weakening one to the point of emaciation and making the other strong by building custom made tracks dialogues situations and scenes then there would have been a huge round of applause for both her creations She gave us KKG but then sheproceeded to treat her like a paraya dhan with limited rights
how you been have not seen you for some time girl😊
swathi


Darling KKGSR style hug to you. Time is a gift amidst hectic college work. How have you been?

Yes i do see where you're coming from. Khushi has been the one to bear the brunt of any little thing that goes wrong in the show.

It will always be Arnavs story i guess. We've been cleverly fooled.

@Hiru- True that. One look at our FF section is proof enough.

swathi, what we call as ASR style redemption (the far fetched ways of making his wife feel at home i.e) and the fact that he's defending her when everyone's mean to her and all that is shown at the expence of Khushi's tears is the damage controling way of writers to bring the much demanded redemption track. They wanted ASR's macho image to be intact and totally forgot about mandotory elements in the story line such as a self realisation of his mistakes.
They realised they created a huge blunder by not showing ASR's regret/guilt track, also realised it's too late to come up with a full blown repentence track. Obviously Khushi's character is there to shred and mutilate and carry the weight of their mistakes because they themselves claim they can make Khushi do anything. so here we are, throdding on Khushi's character and completely changing her characteristics so that ASR's style redemption is shown.

i am ready to forget everythg ASR did,except he said '""'sab thumhare waje se he,u were the biggest mistake in my life KKG""...can never forgive him for that...unless they show some unique redemption[like hurting himself for that..or something more..i dont know..ek sorry se ya remarriage se kam nahi chalega...its very easy for him...but he hav to understand the density of the hurt he caused to that poor delicate girl who only knows to love him(who was even ready to commit suicide for HIM)]
