I don't think Kanchan is exaggerated as a character and I'll tell you why
1) She always snoops around especially after Devi and Tej and eavesdrop on their convo and convey everything to Gayatri
2) She asked Gaytri about Shaurya's past and about Astha and how Devi had purposely kept Shaurya and Astha away from each other
3) She is witness to Shaurya's equation with Shagun and how it didn't affect him emotionally and how controlled he was around Shagun. Even after treating her badly he had no remorse and was aloof sending her back all their gifts exchanged.
4) Shaurya has always stood up for Kanchan and saved her from Devi ire
During the whole roti making incident when Bebo kitty where making fun of Kanchan he rubked them both
When Gaytri and kanchan were being thrown out of the Shaberwal house he stood up for them and told it was wrong
When Devi wanted to stop Kanchan from dancing publicly he saved her
When Kanchan was complaining about Bebo Kitty he stood up for Kanchan when Devi was insulting her
5) She was witness to the fact that Shaurya Bhaiya who never stood up against Devi and Tej called them out and stood up for Anokhi
She was witness to the fact that he didn't want Aokhi to get admission in SIAC so she was kind of shocked why would he stand up for her so vicariously.
Kanchan always wanted to make friends with Shaurya because he was one of the few sane voices in the house. She is already a fan of Astha Shaan Gayatri. She feels the rest are pathetic. She couldn't see how she could bond with Shaurya but she always wanted to.
When the opportunity finally came She asked Shaurya if he wanted to share anything with her. Knowing her gossipy nature he was reluctant. She even assured him she won't tell anyone. She didn't even with Gayatri who is the close person in this house she didn't share. She listened to him patiently and even pushed him to open up but when she thought he wouldn't she backed off. He was the one who seeked her advice seeing that she was a girl and wanted her perspective and she was more than happy because this was not the normal aloof Shaurya who was always angry but flustered and out of control Shaurya Bhaiya so she too tried to encash on that opportunity.
She is enjoying the fact that Shaurya Bhaiya is finally acting out acting free rather than the reserved person she was used to seeing him. He was rebellious and care free. The enemy state always provide arms and ammunition to the rebels of the opposition state to incite violence and instability. She feels only Shaurya has the guts to go against Devi and Tej in this house and she is helping him. She herself is a rebel against the stifling environment of Shaberwal house and didn't hesitate once before meeting Astha not knowing her. Her dialogues may have been OTT or the expression but it was not out of the blue.
