@ sharika...no probs discussing anji here. because if this thread is about shashank then inevitably we must discuss the person he has had acute effect on...his biological daughter.
my husband and i have contemplated adoption very seriously too, but these very reasons of favoritism, on way or the other scares us. its human tendency, to be too defensive or too follow a natural path. it is indeed commendable if a foster aprent can be onjective with both his children.
anjali's character has definite scope of playing the devil. in what capacity, it still remains to be seen. i hope it isn't the age old two sisters falling for the same guy, cos there is no evidence of that thus far and to suddenly introduce such a twist would indeed be disappointing and defintely not well substantiated at all.
anjali is a cynic off her on volition, defence mechanism set to save her from rejection again. only a character like atul can actually draw that part of her out that knows who to feel. armaan, however adorable, is still the stereotypical hero and would have no romantic effect on anjali. it is atul's quirky nature that will puzzle anjali, or so i feel.
