I never realized how close Arnav and Lavanya had become

I just watched the episode when Lavanya was leaving, and I couldn't help but remember how Khushi saw them together in each other's arms so many times. In the beginning in his office, later in the house, when they got engaged and so on.

After all this, when later she hears him talking to Lavanya after getting married and assumes he is getting back together with her. I can only imagine her heartbreak. It was so weird that Arnav was talking to her so casually after all that happened between them. Though it sounded like he was helping her out for some issue.


I guess later this insecurity really manifested itself when Sheetal showed up as his ex girlfriend with a child in tow.


Arnav seemed to always show a soft corner for ex girlfriends which I guess was consistent with his character. All the while, he couldn't see Khushi with anyone else. Seems like he played quite the double standard.

what i understood in the various situations is.
Arnav shared a very cordial relationship with la n Sheetal... He was never overly friendly with either of them... during the relationship with la , Khushi too felt jealous / insecure with the former's closeness with one another...
Arnav is a very closed off person n very insecure of his budding feelings for Khushi n misunderstood her with Shyam... V knw that blasted m.u which created such a havoc... Her friendly nature with Nk too irked him to a great extent...
wot iam trying to say is both Arnav n Khushi were insecure with their feelings towards one another n to avoid their growing feelings towards one another they hv taken a route.. One to demean her n make her blurt out the feelings n the other to irritate the hell out of him... N when they were tryin to accept their new found feelings , the mishap occured which has brought everything to the start... So acc to me it wasn't double standards by either of them ... Arnav nvr had an objection with the close relationship which NK n Khushi shares cuz he understood the genuinity of their relationship...
well ... I tried to dissect something out of something... M nt sure whether i cud clear ur m.u but i hope u did !! :)) :))

However, Arnav had genuine relationships with these women where he shared feelings for them even if he didn't recognize it as love. He shared his time and were seeing each other and no one else at the time. That sounds like commitment to me, even if it was not forever.


Whereas Khushi was never in a relationship with NK aside from friend. Shyam was never someone she had feelings for or spent committed time with. She was forced in that engagement and she did not continue any cordial relationships there after.


Arnav didn't even like it at the Mrs. India contest when those men were complimenting her.

i was thinking about this too funnily enough while i was watching those rerun episodes. but i was wondering if arnav would have had a problem if khushi had been in a proper relationship before she ever met him. and i think he wouldn't have, everything that happened before they met is meant nothing but everything after is all a big no! so yes, jealous of her fiancee, jealous of nk, mental about shyam, not liking those mrs india people all over her - arnav will always be like that. but no double standard i feel. the way he thinks of khushi is a million miles away from the relationships he's had in the past, she's above everything else, even himself. he's just damn lucky that he doesn't have a male version of la or sheetal from khushi's past to actually contend with, he wouldn't blame her or hold it against her but i can imagine him being jealous as hell.

Agreed that he never even asked Khushi about her fiance. But I guess, I didn't understand why he continued contact with Lavanya on such a regular basis from what I gather after she left. And it didn't seem like Lavanya continued that close friendship with Khushi afterwards. In fact, I think Khushi was surprised that Arnav and Lavanya still talked to each other. Granted at that time, Arnav was upset with Khushi, but was he allowing himself to take comfort with Lavanya knowing she still may harbor feelings for him.

Nor did I understand how comfortable he felt with Sheetal. It wasn't until Khushi started asking what kind of relationship they shared that he wondered if she felt uncomfortable and even then he maintained close proximity to her (basketball and all). I understand he will say meant nothing, but they did at some point. Was he really that clueless to know that Lavanya had feelings for him, and maybe Sheetal did too?

yes arnav was cordial with his ex girlfriends cauz for him dey were never his love , dey were just sum1 who he can tag around wid whom he never hav to share his feelings , who were too busy wid demselves to bother arnav wid his feeling n griefs.
n dats y wen khushi opens his insecurities n tell arnav he replies by saying dat dey meant nthing n she is his love


n i dont think arnav is double standard , he never brought back lavanya into his life, n wen sheetal came his 1st reaction was to stay away from her, he thought dat it would be awkward for khushi to share d same space wid the gal who he use to date n dats y wen khushi came up wid an idea of letting sheetal stay in der house he was angry, he didnt wanted khushi too feel ny kind of insecurity or jealousy even for a bit , he knew from his experience how bad it feels (thnx to NK) n he never wanted khushi to feel dat

Arnav did maintain a good rapport with his ex-girlfriends. Their was a certain level of closeness showed with la. But that was needed for the show. Even during the final stages with the breakup with la or after, he always respected n that was shown beautifully. The intimacy was shown to intimidate Khushi but her nonchalant behaviour definitely irked him n so he wud revert to getting more involved with la to prevent his unwanted feelings. Sheetal was a completely different story. They don't seem to be in a deep relationship as he was with la but nonetheless she was a probable past fling. The insecurities came once Khushi came into his life. The more important she became for him the more possessive he got about her n wanted her solely to himself. Be it either with Shyam or NK. I found their bankyalal conversation hilarious. He obviously took it sportive. But how much he bought her made up story, I m not sure. Her bluff was totally evident. N I guess by then he would understand n know his wife inside out.

A trait of a good guy is that when a girl tells you she loves you, you respect and appreciate that and that was exactly what Arnav was doing to La. I am glad the creatives showed them being in contact after she had left because it really proved that despite all the pain he was causing Khushi he was still a good guy at heart.
It was not necessary to show that but it definitely was a great detail that added a lot to Arnav's character.

I personally don't think Arnav was sharing any of his pain with la about MU, knowing how closed off a person he is.

Also Arnav and La did date and were colleagues as well, so their friendship had no reason to fade away. I dont think they became closer, they just became better friends because everything was in the open now. La knew arnav didnt love her so got over it and kept being his friend and Arnav wasn't confusing himself anymore about his actions towards La so he kept being her friend. It was the first time, they were both JUST FRIENDS to each other.

Nice post but I don't think arnav had double standards
I think he would have been fine if khushi was in a relationship prior to meeting him
Remember banke lal ji?
He said everyone has a past n its ok
As for jealousy, both were jealous
Khushi cud the not show it but arnav was particularly jealous of nk coz nk was friendly n cud talk to khushi and arnav felt insecure coz he felt nk will take khushi away.lolz...
Khushi used to get jealous...remember lisa? Lol

about la.. She was the one firstly who realised that A n K have feelings fr one another... She might hv been a brat initially but she has a heart of gold... I nvr think either Arnav or La will seek comfort continuing their relationship cuz even if Arnav hated K at that point of time due to the m.u , he always had only K in his heart... He wont stoop so low to ... I guess Arnav mentions to Khushi that he was speeaking wid La on sm official purposes ...
