Thank you sweetie 🤗 I seriously love these two 🧿🧿🧿
You know...for us as a third pov anika might be the character that bought her fame and fans and love...but maybe from her pov its bani that has bought her contacts and an in into the industry.
As for friendships, yeah she's very close with neha, shrenu and mansi and nk!! Even her and kunal are very good friends ...
I think all the issues in the end just spoiled the vibe the mood yk...she was already sad that she was leaving, then to deal with all that stuff. Must have spoiled it for her.
Obviously, like now she was playing pretend pretend that everything's fine and dandy...but then you can't air out for frustrations na!!!

I wish they'd expanded on this at the time. There were a couple of times where Meera was like "you know Veer loves you" and Bani would brush it off as not "the right time" but you could tell she knew it too, and was softening towards him. I also loved that scene in the Shakura track where she tells Meera how Veer wore her ring and "zabardasti" put the mangalsutra on her, and the animated way in which she retells the story makes it obvious to Meera that something more is going on within Bani...it was moments like that that had me convinced that Bani was feeling things towards him, just being very stubborn about accepting these feelings.
It was these things that req a proper monolouge yk. The only monolouge that we got was the one she does in front of mata rani. I really wanted her to open up to meera about veer.
The mangalsutra eps kinda gives away that even during that time she was melting for him. She could have just stopped him from putting the mangalsutra and sindoor...just pushed his hand away but al she did was look into the mirror while he "married" her.

Yes, exactly. From what I know, she's made some lifelong friendships from that set in the girls but also Nakuul and I'm sure others. And I would have thought there'd be more emotions attached to a role you lived for longer, than for one you played for six months (though that said, sometimes the longer you've been on a job, the 'easier' it is to leave because you're ready to move on).
You're right that often it's not logical, and it's not that I'm trying to make a comparison (negatively or otherwise) between her two experiences...but it's just a curious thought. I guess from the perspective of some of those fans who lived through and felt the anger at the way that Anika was ousted from the show bring to this conversation their own biases. From what I read they were inferring (vaguely, ofc!) that the PH and fellow-cast members have treated her with far more respect here than on IB esp during her last days of filming, but like I say, that could be their biases or projections coming through. Either way, I'm glad she's had a good experience with this PH and these people, nobody wants to be relieved to leave a job behind. And if it means she feels like she might have a home base in the industry, well good for her.
Yes. She's chill and extremely comfortable will all her costar. Nakuul included. You can just see how easy and relaxed their bond is. The show is her claim to fame to put it simply. Also the whole years vs only 6 months factor. It may get stagnant after a point but the longer you have been in a show (or anything really), the more emotionally attached, habituated and comfortable you are in that space. So you'd assume she would say that would be on top for her. Perhaps she is referring to the working environment as well? She did say 'pampered'. Although her statement seemed to imply more than just that actually.
I am equally curious as you are and wondering about the same. Because like you said, due to the situations surrounding her exit in IB, what the fans say may have to be taken warily. There may some truth to it, but I suppose at the end, its all talks and only she truly knows.
If she truly feels at home with Balaji, great for her. They are a huge PH to camp with! I agree they could always have something to give her (even perhaps with SM 😳) and that is a great backing to have in this industry.

I think you've hit the money on at least part of the reason this is so big for her. Yeah Anika brought her fame and I'm sure she loves that character and every opportunity it gave her, but Bani gave her Balaji, and I guess from a work perspective that is gold to her. It was always her dream to work with them.
Plus like you said, maybe the love she had for Anika/IB/that set is still there but is tempered with the negative vibes and emotions she must also have felt at the time. Like something sour in your sweet dish that you weren't expecting. Whereas this experience, even if the ending is abrupt, has been nothing but positive for her in all respects.

I love how she says most important person and then goes obviously the whole cast...but we know sc...we know who's most important to you!!!ðŸ¤ðŸ¤ðŸ–¤ðŸ–¤ðŸ§¿ðŸ§¿
Remember the dance eps where she wears dancer's dress and tells meera.."di agr aapko zara sa bhi khatra lge toh seedha veeranshu ke paas jaana, vo aapki madad krega aapki dhaal bnega"...and meera's like "bani tujhe pta bhi hai tune abhi kya bola!!!"
This is exactly the scene I had in mind!
