If he was to leave in Feb, and it was known he extended in June...
ASR could have been bumped off during kidnap track when Barun left for the movie
Misunderstanding could have been cleared before that, when they were uselessly wasting time during Swami and GH track
Khushi could have met her new man then before audience expected more
Ok let us assume audience wanted Barun back and they decided to continue ASR character
They knew Barun is leaving in September
When remarriage happened
He could have been bumped off right after remarriage
And new man could have been brought in then
But no. We had to put up with the ridiculous Mrs India and Sheetal track.
So, at what point of time did the makers decide that Barun was leaving?
Like really leaving?
So, why did the makers wait till Khushi was Arnav's body and soul?
Why did they introduce telepathy and unconditional love when Barun had to leave and Khushi has to fall in love again?
Why had they not killed ASR suddenly before audience even got wind of his quitting?
I refuse to believe the whole storyline could not have been changed
Or the whole thing could not have been planned to accommodate his eventual absence which was known from February
How can they explain this clear oversight?
If I knew a team member is leaving in my team,
I would plan for it
I would gradually make him less indispensible for my work
Why did that not happen?
