So true, TM ... Khushi whisked life into the show! It was so dull and lifeless without her ... still cannot understand what the makers were thinking, making this Jashn into a series of flashbacks with one sided narration ... one or two episodes is fine, but six out of eight episodes ... disaster!!! And Barun was completely the wrong choice for narrator ... won't say more on that.
But Khushi in one episode has brought the life and spark back into the show ... Sanaya has done two other characters after Khushi, and one of them a polar opposite of Khushi ... yet she got back the mannerisms and speech down pat ... except for one slip at the start ... 'main yahan hun' ... after that she went right back to 'hum' During the show, Sanaya said her dialogues were given to her written with main ... and she had to change them to 'hum' ... she remembered even that little detail.
Either the writing was better for her character, or Sanaya as usual rose above the script to emote beautifully ... Khushi was always a firecracker with an angry ASR, but melted into mush with Arnav ... That last scene was the best, where we saw the mixture of expressions fleeting across her face ... trying to hold on to her anger, but melting, worrying for him, softening immediately when he said he can't live without her ... her eyes said it all.
Good to see the Arshi nok jhok again ... theirs was a match of equals ... right now looks like Khushi firmly has the upper hand ... but good to see a small glimpse of the famous ASR temper ... Arnav did not seem like Arnav without that for all the last 6 episodes.
