IPKKND

My favorite character in this show was Arnav (male) and Khushi (female). These both characters gradually became what my life revolves around

Arnav- Honestly- his hotness. But also loved his humbleness and indirect caring attitude.

Khushi- her OTT drama and also how she is very gullible and niave.

Arnav- the way he sometimes treated Khushi horribly

Khushi- HELL YAAH

Arnav- No actually but I still love him

If I could live the way Khushi does and eventually get a Arnav in my life THEN HECK YES

Q9 Did you learn anything from that character or were inspired by her in any way?

By Khushi definitely yes

Q10 If yes, what did you learn/ how did it change your life?

Uhh...it's a TV show, not a motivational speech...

The only change it did to me was make me completely obsessed with everything related to the show

Q11 If another character [male/female] in the serial, blames/scolds your favourite female character for no fault of her own, how should she react according to you?

She should stand up for herself and explain that it was not her fault.

You would stand up for yourself and explain that it was not your fault.

Western

Q16 Have you ever wished that your daughter/ daughter-in-law/mother-in-law or any female relative was like the character in the serial?

HECK NO! By god Arnav's DADI was horrible. If I had anything to fo with her either she would be murdered or me!

But I would love to have a relative like Naniji and Anjali!!!

Q17 Have you ever tried to imitate your favourite character in reality? [Sense of dressing, behaviour or talking]

For Khushi Yes...I even bought a suit like hers from online

Arnav- uhh that would be plain wierd (I'm a chick..not a dude) but I did copy his famous dailogue 'what the'. Its in my everyday language now

Q18 Any specific reason as to why you watch a particular serial?

Go see the male leads face..you will know why 😉

Q18 Any specific reason as to why you watch a particular serial?

It's the single serial I really watched because it had a way of balancing the drama and the logic. I liked the chemisty ☺️, I liked the cast and moreover, I think the characters were exceptional. I am yet to find a character as strong as that of Arnav's. Their backgrounds, their moods, their flaws, their habits .. it's unparallel. (Well, to me at least 😳)

Q19. Do you think that female characters in Indian television serials are portrayed well enough? Yes or No, why do you think so?

Absolutely not. Definition of the word female in their dictionary means loyal, BS-taker-without-complains, preferably housewife, family-servant, ridiculously traditional. Some of them are modern but that has it's limit too. I wish they'd show more along the lives of career women, and not just business women but service woman as well. I WISH 🥱
