Again, love the meat you added to my bare bones HC about Sheetal secretly shipping Kuhu and Kunal It's not disagreeing with what I thought at all, just giving it more detail. The scene you came up with, how Sheetal is the one to broach the topic of Kuhu's business to Kunal, and all his reactions, is absolutely perfect.
I've been thinking about how she reacts to Kuhu's decision not to go through with th divorce. I think she'd reflect a lot of our feelings -- she's happy Kunal finally stepped up and spared both of them the heartbreak but she's also a little concerned that Kuhu is rushing into it. Kuhu's been avoiding talking to her because she's afraid Sheetal will judge her for not going through with the divorce (which in my mind explains why Kuhu's been less her mature self lately) but she ends up calling her after they get back from the resort. "Sheetal, I'm scared I've made a huge mistake."
Kuhu and Ketu helping Atul with his acting dreams is everything!!! Can I add a little detail where soon after marriage, Kuhu accidentally walks in on Atul rehearsing with Ketu in her room? He quickly stops and changes the topic (which he is used to doing for the rest of the family) and Kuhu gets awkward and turns to leave but then Ketu pulls her back, tells Atul bhabs is cool and they can trust her, so Kuhu joins their practice session.
Thanks Sam!!😛
I love the detail you've added!! That should definitely be how Kuhu and Atul's devar-bhabhi bond starts!!
Ohhhhhh!! My brain has started whirring 🙈🙈!! But before that, let's go back to Sheetal and Kuhu. Can we not add the shame factor for Kuhu?? She is one character who does what she wants and never shies away because of it and I love that about her. I don't want her to be scared of judgement for following her heart. And as DQ had mentioned, she knew what she was getting into when she decided to get married the second time.
Can we say that she thanked Sheetal for all her help but now she was getting married to Kunal again? Sheetal is pleasantly surprised to see Kunal step up because the one time she had met him, it didn't seem like he would. Sheetal is not sure what to think of the situation but wishes Kuhu the best for her future. They part on that note.
I love that she reaches out to Sheetal after the resort. The problem with my brain is that I have incorporated Riya's HC as part of the show for now. So, can anyone add beech ka masala to fill the gaps?? What do you imagine would have happened for Kuhu to reach out to Sheetal again??
Now, on to this Nanad-Bhabhi-Devar trio!!
So, let's say that after helping Atul practice, she finally feels happy in a long time. Slowly, these 2 become Atul's biggest fans and critiques, but then it hits Kuhu that there's only so much that Atul can improve on his skill by practicing in the house. In one practice session, she brings up the topic of him joining an acting school but gets confused seeing Atul and Ketu's reactions. She asks why do they have this sad look on their faces and then the siblings fill her in that the family won't let him leave (as mentioned in my baby idea😆).
Also, by this time, Kunal and Abir have been helping her with setting up her company but since she doesn't want to involve Kunal too much and Abir has been working on his app and devoting all his free time to Kuhu's business, she didn't want to ask for more help. And Atul was supposed to be working with Kunal after the Mehul fiasco, right?? So, when the siblings tell her about the family not investing in Atul's dreams completely ignoring the fact that he has no interest in business and also, Ketu not being allowed to work because she's a girl and her brother's are already earning, she shares how she has been working on building her company and maybe Ketu and Atul could help with that. Atul says that I am already working with Kunal and as it is don't get time to work on his acting. She says that she will talk to Kunal after the financial things are done and Atul could help out with the wedding story and video part. That would be much closer to his field than business and help him distance himself too. And since that is just a small part of the whole wedding planning thing, he would have plenty of time to act and prepare for acting class auditions, and once he gets into his dream school, the family would have to take him seriously. She would help him convince them. Both the siblings are overjoyed and they have group hug.
Another idea that I had was that he is in touch with Ketu and still helps out Kuhu with ideas over phone. He knows that the drama quotient has been high in the RV sadan and that is why he avoided to come back for the double wedding bonanza.
Also, what do you guys think about Atul finding out about the divorce during this timeline?? Maybe he overhears a conversation but decides to keep it a secret. One day, he sees Kuhu crying and motivating herself to be strong, saying it's only for 3 months and then you won't have to suffer. That is the moment he tells her that he has known for a long time but didn't want to get into a personal matter. Maybe they have a discussion. Anyone has any ideas???
