17 yrs ago, means he knows he has lost his chance with Anu for a good 10yrs, knows she is married, likely has kids in her 10 yrs of marriage.
Now, he has come to see her knowing that she is not going to be visiting US. He appeared eager to visit her. He gets a glimpse of her smiling with her children. Feels sad, sheds tears, and leaves without meeting her. Why doesn't he meet her? I don't understand why is he sad suddenly. What was he expecting? 🤔
He has known about Anu's family thru Devika. Plus he had seen her on her day of wedding ( I think ). So seeing her now, shouldn't be breaking news for him.
He is harboring feelings for a married woman, who appears to be happy. There goes a dent in AK's char.
Added later: I read some reviews about the prequel. Based on those, the little bit of sympathy I had for Anu also vanished. The story as whole left me with more questions.
