With each episode Prerna has come closer to recognising her feelings for Anurag. It is obvious from watching the scene where she shut Shivani down when Shivani wanted to blurt out who Prerna actually loves and when she told Anurag today that she wanted to marry Naveen to protect the person she really..."cares about", that Prerna has recognised her feelings for Anurag. She knows she loves him and she also knows nothing will come out of that love. Kaki Ma will not allow it.
Anurag has done a real about turn in my opinion. He has gone from admitting that he feels something undefinable for Prerna that is more than like...to just treating her like a friend and a responsibility. The hesitation with which he touched her hand today after days of jathao-ing his haq over her, just felt weird.
I have a bad feeling... I really have not been liking the detached way in which Anurag behaves sometimes - is it just me? I think Anurag is going to go back to treating Prerna like Rajesh uncles daughter and start considering proposals that his mom brings. Particularly Komolika.
