I like Saanvi's character so far and I hope she stays positive. It is good that Mukhi
has at least one good friend from childhood who isn't after something from him (so far and I hope it stays this way!), and who he
can talk freely with.
I also like that they have shown that a male and female can be friends, both with Saanvi-Mukhi and Aru-Gautam. I guess Saanvi being pregnant at least means that they can't link her up with Mukhi at this point. Another thing I like is that they haven't shown Saanvi being ostracised and being made to stay away from wedding functions etc because she is a widow. I'm glad they are not perpetuating the old belief that the presence of widows is inauspicious, so good work for simply showing her as another member of society in that respect. 👏
Coming to why Saanvi and Mukhi didn't ever get married, in all seriousness, I think Rami and the Old Mukhiya (Saanvi and Arjan's father) will have joined forces to prevent that. The Old Mukhiya hates Mukhi/Raidhan because he replaced him as the Mukhiya and so wouldn't want him as his son-in-law. And Rami never wanted her brother to get married at all, so probably joined forces with the Old Mukhiya to stop any potential Raidhan-Saanvi wedding before it ever got to the point of happening. She probably helped the Old Mukhiya arrange for Saanvi to marry her now-dead husband as soon as it was possible, before anyone suggested that Raidhan marry her.
Whether Mukhi/Raidhan ever thought of Saanvi as more than a friend, I guess we'll find out at some point! There was certainly some reason, apart from his age and responsibilities to the village, why he didn't want to get married when Mishri first told him she wanted him to get married before her, but whether that is Saanvi-related or not, again I hope we find out in due course!
And even though he hates Mukhi, I bet the Old Mukhiya was fine with his son Arjan marrying Mukhi's sister Uma so that Arjan could take over Mukhi's business and ill-treat Uma, for revenge! The Old Mukhiya certainly seems to know that his son is up to no good! 😡
