Let us start from the first episode. Saanjh is very close to Arjun, he is her best friend. She can see people around her unlike her friend Arjun hence she realises that Maya is crying, also she is not the one to easily get into trouble thus she does not want Arjun to pick a fight with Maya's bodyguards. She then reveals she has no big dreams regarding life, only wants to be with her loved ones. When she comes home we see she belongs to a very happy family, but that family mistakes her relationship with Arjun to be more than friendship but she clears it to them that they are just friends but she herself is not convinced with that answer.
Within the first 5 episodes it becomes pretty clear to everyone that Saanjh really loves Arjun but her friend doesn't reciprocate her feelings, and she is also unable to convey her feelings. Bravo! š
Her father realises this and tries to protect her from the scenario in his own way- wanting her to maintain distance from Arjun. But her mother supports her beliefs in love and wants Saanjh to atleast give it a try.
We also come to know that Saanjh is pretty chipkoo when it comes to Arjun hence she wants to be everywhere near him. She continuously calls him even when they are in their respective offices, decides to go and meet Arjun in his office hours to have an ice cream etc.
Basically she is taking care of Arjun like a wife.
Later she meets arjuns boss and is hell scared of her coz her BFF has told her that Maya is a chudail!! š She gets scared pretty easily! However she realises that it's all okay as long as your work is good. At this point of time, her character is shown to have high morales thus she wants arjun to apologise to Maya.
However her morales have a limit and his name is Arjun. And that is why when prem asks her if she is really ready to meet a boy for marriage, she doesn't thinks about her father's feelings at all, she only thinks of how shubh advised her that this may bring Arjun closer to her, which doesn't happen! š
It clearly stated that when she said she wants a peaceful life with her loved ones she meant Arjun!
So Saanjh wants Arjun and her family and Arjun's family really want this to happen at all costs.
Meanwhile Arjun gets a project and is ready to climb stairs of success, there is an event and he requires a suit so he decides that as usual he would ask his BFF Saanjh (whom he uses as a doormat) to arrange for the suit. She somehow manages to enter the venue and hear him thanking the one person responsible for his success which should obviously be her but she hears Maya's name and is shattered!
Nonetheless she decides to wait for him on their Shanti Spot for dinner so that she can propose him but he doesn't turn up coz he forgot!! She waits for him thewhole night!!
It feels that Arjun matters a lot to him and she really needs him in her life. She loves him a lot maybe the word is beyhadh! š²
Moving on she sees Arjun's photo in newspaper and gets happy, but wait. There is Maya's photo too. They both are standing hand in hand near each other in the same photo! This obviously is unbearable to her so she decides to cut the Maya out of the photo. Well that's sensible from her POV. Afterall Dusky ka duffer sirf Dusky ka hai. She is completely taken over by Arjun and as I said she does not wants him, she needs him!
Now Arjun has started to appreciate and admire Maya whom he once called queen bee and Saanjh is simply not liking it. Then there comes the day when Maya asks Saanjh to give her the presentation on the very next day, for which Saanjh works all night. When she goes to Maya's office, Maya makes her wait for long hours, then tears her presentation and tells Saanjh that she is not at all efficient.
Saanjh gets really hurt about this. She becomes really heartbroken and scared due to that. That night when she was with Arjun, he starts to say Maya ka Dil bilkul saaf hai uske kapdon ki tarah, but Saanjh interrupts and says ki uska dil bilkul kaala hai. Arjun praises Maya and she leaves in anger.
Saanjh's anger is completely justified, but it important to note that a few hurtful words from Maya and she knows ki iska dil kaala hai! At that point of time I realized that saanjh is not at all simple, even she has layers.
She extremely sensitive, an hold grudges against people and has a strange feeling of helplessness in her self. She did felt extremely bad regarding Maya's behaviour and she was going to hold it in her heart. But then Arjun goes and picks up a fight for him and she really likes it.
Yes, she likes it intact she loves it!! But why? She was always the one to stay out of trouble then why bring trouble onto the person she loves the most? Answer is simple coz it was Maya he fought with. Maya - the person whom Arjun thanked in front of everyone, the lady who was with Arjun in the newspaper photo, the person whom Arjun had started to appreciate. If Arjun picked up fight with Maya for her it surely means she is super important and he definitely loves her right? So this can make anyone happy!
But then she gets a message and she is completely scared of Maya. She can in no way go and meet Maya in Maya's house. She would definitely roast Saanjh for Arjun's anger. But she gets far from roasted, according to Maya she is chopped, cut, grated, grinded!!! š š
Maya uses her to gather information about Arjun and what he likes, scares her to pieces and finally gives her a watch that she is supposed to pass on to Arjun.
Saanjh is a scaredy cat for sure. But she is also very intelligent. She can see through Maya's facade and realise her intentions. She now knows that Maya loves Arjun and she is panicking! She runs to Arjun and tries to explain the whole situation to him but duffer being duffer and in sleep completely ignores her.
But there was something strange in her Panick. The always fragile, happy and simple Dusky was different. There we can see her insecurities stemming from her love for Arjun. He belongs to her and only her, no one else!! She simply cannot stand anyone loving him, no one has the right to do so!
Hence the sensible and gentle speaker was shouting and blabbering.
Saanjh's love for Arjun becomes pretty evident but duffer still does not gets it.
Since its been a long enough post, I guess I will post the remaining stuff later.
