I feel after today's episode taht Arjun (where I felt sorry for him) loved both women in his weird way. He loved Ovi for they have a shared relationship of childhood, familiarity and friendship. He could have been equally happy with Ovi, if Purvi never came in his life.
He also I guessed love Purvi or maybe the novelty that was her. He obviously can't get her out of his system. He is like a little confused child who is lost in the darkness and do not know the way out. Being confused, he wasn't happy when married to Ovi and missed Purvi. Now, say he marries Purvi, even then I think he will never be happy. It is a weird love story above societal norms and our value system and so will always be condemned. But there are real life examples of such men who loved multiple women but those have been kept secretly tucked away'
Kalapi, I don't know how one can love two women or two men equally but then as mothers we can and do love two or more children equally so maybe loving two spouses does happen in real life. I just would not want my daughter or son to be ever part of such an equation.
As far as Arjun is concerned, my take is the same as yours, if he had never met Purvi, he would have been reasonably happy with Ovi, would never have missed the "falling in love" part. But since he did fall in love with Purvi, novelty or otherwise, he cannot get her out of his system. He does love Ovi in his own way, as a friend, as someone he has known all his life hence his hesitation in not getting out of their engagement, agreeing to go forward with the marriage and even trying to make a go of the said marriage. But Ovi is right, she can never take the place of Purvi in Arjun's heart so it is better for her to find a man for whom she will hold the same maayine as Purvi holds for Onir and to some extent, for Arjun. A woman deserves to be the one and only for the man in her life, no sharing business when it comes to dividing the love of a husband.
