here’s my take on it....when he met mishty three times before the engagement....he got very attracted to her..when he found out she was veers fiancée and then started living in her house ...he got to know her more...by observation and from her family..and then fell in love with her. But he knew he couldn’t have her..and it was just a dream to him..mishty mentioned something like this today ..that she was his dream..anyway after the jungle scene ..when driving home he was over the moon that she loved him too...hence all the imagination and silsila song... but then reality set in...that she’s not free, she is engaged to veer and the situation was that she was going to marry veer... hence he felt helpless..he said he can’t watch her marry veer ..because she has not told him that she is going to break off with veer..so today he gave her the choice ...him or veer ..although he didn’t say it in actual words ..but it came across as this,..because he told her he’ll stay when she insisted he can’t leave..and watch her marry veer even though it’s killing him..so he hasn’t forced her to break off with veer or encouraged her...she knows he loves her,..and now basically the ball is in her court..as he told her is she willing to give up veer, her wedding and everything that goes with it...for him...I really liked ruhaan today and always ..he’s a great guy..Originally posted by: Ardhanarishwara
So basically what i felt was right.. The reason why he tried to take a backstep was not because of concern for Veer unlike some were saying.. I didnt quite really understand his behaviour today.. Can anyone explain.. Anyway i am relieved he agreed to stay back.. If he had run away mishaan would have been ruined for me.
