Anurag was NOt in the initial phases of love during the Chunari scene. During the drugged glass scene he said to Mohini that he would have done the defence for anyone and it’s not about prerna, I don’t think this dialogue applies to the glass scene (bcos of course his love of prerna made him extra forceful) but it definitely applies to the chunari scene. Forget anurag no woman, man... no human will just walk away leaving anther there especially when the other person was trying to rescue the Durga statue.
Someone who comes to the AT now is going wonder - what the what! What’s this all about! I wish some biriyani or pilau would come and we could talk about that rather than all the inconsistencies caused by shoddy writing.
