who do mean by allowing others to say arnav can sacrifice his happiness for Di?
Yea he has to balance. But in fact even arnav himself had a hard time doing so. They were each others solace. For the longest time. And with shyam gone. She relied on Akash and arnav for emotional support.

And next arnav himself is a big enigma. Even Anjali has been clueless many atimes.. While he was falling for Khushi, he brought in la to prove a point to his family esp his Nani. So they had to turn her into a bahu material. Anjali only knew of as ArHi's feelings during payash wedding. And that wasn't too intuitive I feel so I am convinced sometimes Anjali doesn't get things too. Probably why she didnt get suspicious of her hubby. She only knows arnav when he was like his original self back when he was a teenager etc.. Moody and cranky. In terms of plot line, she was there to be a bridge for arhi's love story. She wasn't the cupid. So clueless she might be but not confused.

Anjali lets arnav be. He tells her to leave him and she does so. And that's the difference between her and khushi. She isn't afraid of his anger. She can be there and allow him to break down in her arms.

@ MoonBow: Thanks for the comment. I have written something in these lines in the later parts of my analysis which I will post soon.
All I want to say is Anjali relying on Arnav for any support is not an issue for me.
Anjali not realizing that she has to share Arnav's support or love or dedication with someone else is my issue.
I agree, Arnav himself said his Di is his world and he does not care about anyone else in the world. But, that was before he got married. After he got married and fell in love with Khushi, he said, his wife is equally important and Di won't lose her importance in his life. That is a fair statement.
But Anjali indirectly accusing him for falling in love, when she herself predicted that he will fall in love one day is hard to comprehend.
The definitions of Saanse rokne waali or falling in love won't change according to Anjali's state of mind, will they?

I always love discussions about the show. Just like u i have no idea about IF and even about ipkknd, when ipk was on air. So i read old discusions now.
Ppl may feel it creepy, but i enjoy reading anjali and daljeet bashing posts.
But hard core fans of ipk can understand my hatred towards anjali (mainly) and daljeet (some what)
For me ipk is a fairy tale. Love of my life. I loved it till kidnaping track. But post kidnap, which is very very important period to finish this beautiful tale, things went horrible. Thanks to daljeet and her negotiations.
I have not read ur post completely. I dont want ur analysis to influence my comment. I will read after making my post and further comment.

So my opinion on anjali...

A worst sister...not after kidnap...but during initial episodes too..

1. When arnav had relationship with lavanya, many times nani and even once shyam asked anjali why she aproved la even when she know la is not right person for arnav. She replied she dont want to loose chotey in the process. I mean, its chotey's marriage, an issue for life. It does not bother her if arnav choose right girl or not. All she want is her place in arnav's life and house.

2. She just fed on arnav's money. As she is an elder sister, she would have earned and protected arnav. She never hesitated to spend chotey's hard earned money.

3. On bhai dooj, i was irritated when she kept on smiling when mami imitated arnav. And instead of protesting and saying dont loose or sacrifice anything for me, she said i know all this. Eeeks...i hate tgis spineless woman.

4. She never bothered if not shyam, who kidnaped arnav. She did not even ask him how he was when he was injured.

5. She lied to chotey after kidnap and met shyam secretly.

6. Even after shyam's relevation, she did not react when shyam revealed that he kidnaped arnav.

A horrible mother...

1. She never had medicines in time. No bother about baby.

2. Tried to abort the baby.

3. A reason for the miscarriage.

A worst wife...

If ppl thought that she is a good wife, and all she cared about is only herself and her hubby, then they r wrong. She is not a good wife too.

1. She never cared about her husband, as according to her knowledge, he works really hard. I have never seen her offering a cup of chai or coffee when he returns home. All she used to start is pouting. poor shyam.

2. Encouraged him as ghar jamai

3. when arnav said the famous 'this is my house' dialog, she started using her famous weapons, tears, tantrums, sympathy (by falling down) and closed her room door. If she really respects and loves shyam, she would have shared her pain with him. Where she thought that her hubby will sleep? Ofcourse being asr's sister, she would have thought that he will sleep by some pool side.

4. Not walked out of the house when shyam was insulted, slapped and tgrown out of house.

She dont love shyam. She love the way she thinks shyam love her. She love the attention shyam pays to her. She is an attention seeker. If some real man would have really loved her, but could not utter sweet words like shyam, she would not have gone so much ga ga with him.

A shame to woman kind...

1. Whats the need for u to earn? This is the question she asked when khushi started dabba business. Nani answered very nicely. So she is more backward than old generation women.

2. Always want chotey or shyam to lean on.

3. 'U keep on giving me these small surprises. I dont want anything else' 'i dont want anything other than ur live and words'. Seriously these kind of things irritate me to the core. One should throw her out of shantivan and ask her to earn by selling those words.

All in all, i hate anjali.
Now i will read ur post, and comment further.
Sorry for long post, but i have million more words to say about anjali.

Exactly. I did not get why Anjali stopped Arnav in the first place. She did not have a solution for the problem, but was so sure that her husband can solve this issue, who has left home without telling her and was playing hide and seek (on the phone) since the Lucknow fashion show.
6. Even after shyam's relevation, she did not react when shyam revealed that he kidnaped arnav.
My thoughts too! When Shyam revealed that he kidnapped Arnav and tried to kill him, she did not react at all to that piece of information.
Sorry for long post, but i have million more words to say about anjali.
It is not long. What I said in 12 parts, you said in one single post.


Looking forward to read more comments from you.

Actually many a times, the writers are so focussed to add drama to a show , every essence to the characters are lost. Drama becomes more important than character.
Just like Anjali, they have bring lot of contadictions in other people's character. They either make characters extremely white or extremely black. There is no balance in any of the character . All are confused & sometimes they became invisible, when focus went to protagonists.

I can understand all the flaws of Anjali (credit to the writers again). But the problem with her is her habit. She is habituated with Arnav's attention & care so much that sometimes she want him to have someone special in his life & when he does exactly same, she believes she holds no more importance in his life.

She is not vile. She is just trapped in her confused feeling & could not figure it out. After being the sole important person in her brother's life , who has been more than a best friend, confidante & support system to her , it is quite normal for her to not accept thee sharing of same position with somebody else.

Whereas after her broken marriage , she felt grateful towards Shyam for accepting her as her life partner. Out of that gratefulness only, she looked beyond every flaws of Shyam.

Anjali's character did have huge amount of potential to brings lots of shades & characteristics, because she is another important character in the story. We can hate her, absolutely abuse her, but to be very honest, IPKKND would not have been possible without her. If she is not there, Shyam would not have been there & then the story would have never formed. 😉😉😉

One can love her, hate her but simply can't ignore her. Afterall, she is the reason, we are here to discuss about her only.

You have it right. I also thought her very selfish and shallow. She is very good at blackmailing other. She always give this helpless behaviour to get others to dance to her tune. She knows every bodies business but her own.She feels she is entitle and no one else should be important in Arnav's life. I did not feel sorry for her because she was told about Shyam and she could have investigate what Khushi told her. There is Buaji, Babuaji, Garima and the entire Laxmi Nagar to ask. Her ignorance of Arnav's kidnapping amazes me. Her neat Armani dressing brother came home dirty and ragged and she is only concern for her husband. It shows that she only loved what he had to offer her and her husband. She never thought for once that for such a hard working long travelling husband why she has to be giving him her brother's money ALL THE TIME. You sum it up well.
