i saw the show from 6 months in so i already knew shyam was married to anjali and it was about arnav and khushi. but asr was being particularly mean then so i was rooting for nk for a while, till i caught up with the episodes and figured out all the relationships and arnav's dil ki baat 😳 but even then i was still shocked by shyam in the early episodes, if i'd seen it right from the beginning i would have thought asr was the villain and shyam the hero - who the heck would think that the guy who saves her will be her dushman and the guy who breaks her dori, makes her badnaam and drops her from a height would be her love? 😲 it was so unexpected and so interesting from a psychological, behavioral and emotional viewpoint. i really like how the cv's did that and reversed the two characters completely over time, their shades became lighter and darker, very clever and very compelling story telling 😃
