I had a busy day today and just got back onto IF.
Before I read the discussions, I would like to post my next comment.
So, Arnav was 13 when Manohar married Aarti and 20 when Aarti died, Manohar remarried Priya and Arnav was brought to their house.
Manohar re-married Priya soon after Aarti's death. That looks a bit suspicious. How can he forget Aarti so quickly? That makes me think there must be a strong reason for him to get back to Priya.
Was he threatened or was someone sick?
Because of Arnav, constant arguments ensued between Priya and Manohar. Manohar was forced to send Arnav away. I am guessing he was moved back to the house where he lived with his mother. Around that time, he got into drugs and alcohol
Unknown: Did he get into drugs while he was still living at Manohar and Priya or did he get into drugs when he was sent away? Did someone known to him introduced him to drugs? Where did he get money to buy drugs from?
He got too deep into drugs and later he was rehabilitated.
Most probably that is what Arnav meant, when he said Shyam picked him from the streets and gave him life.
Point to be noted: Shyam saved Arnav before Shyam was prosecuted by Manohar for some communal riots.
Then Arnav started a business with Aman. Most probably that is when he became a womaniser. Did Manohar fund the business?
I have a feeling Arnav saw Khushi for the first time, when he was still in business.
That venture doomed and he joined politics.
Akash was studying abroad when Arnav was brought into their house. Was it possible that, Priya and Manohar got back together, when Aakash was away?
It is evident that Arnav is 33. Is Khushi 29?
Arnav's parents both died when they were in their mid 40s.
Unknown: Cause of Arnav's father's death.
N, this is my way to get people into discussion. I am sure we will get our answers in the upcoming chapters.
Cheers.............
