Swati, while I tend to agree with you about the rave party I think you are being too harsh with him on the way he handled the aftermath.

For him to marshal all of his resources and do all of the things you say to do after he comes back from Panchgani over a one night stand I think is unrealistic. He had no idea his worst nightmare would happen and things would blow up in his face.

Girls, there is nothing personal here, please understand my point of view. I am going to put in layman's words here; you might have guessed it already, I have mix family background of strong bz and well as IT and I mentioned I run my own business too.

This story is of 2005 onwards in India or currently in 2015 in Mumbai, one of the fastest, most hi-tech city and business / financial district of Asia's most dominating country. If Arnav has grown from rag to riches in Mumbai and runs a conglomerate, basic expectation here from Arnav is to have the proper business companies, legal setup, with personal, business advisors, lawyers, security, wealth management team, counselors, and accountants / tax consultants and most importantly his complete inner circle (his hot line team) that knows everything about him and his schedules etc. This is what anyone does when they start a business and once they grow exponentially as Arnav.

Handling mishap is a drill run 100 times for different scenarios just like fire drill we run in our offices at executive level. There is monthly round table where such situations are discussed, current attacks analyzed and actions are prepared. Nobody reinvents wheel after mishap happens, they just get into action mode and do the needful. It is almost carried out as reflexes because of the drills they practice.

So if Arnav here is underprepared for any such situation for me is a complete bummer! Then he has nobody else to blame but himself, isn't it? You are part of Bollywood but you and your wife are NOT prepared for a scandal is a joke to me. They are recognized as Modern Day Fairy Tale, image built over years.

My educated mind and common sense tells me if Arnav is NOT established like this, he wouldn't be called an astute, sharp and savvy businessman but he is supposed to be the one. But the way Arnav handled Lavanya incident is complete amateur and newbie behavior or even worst. I would fire half of his hotline team, ha ha ha. Of course except darling Aman. Ok, I will try not to be harsh on Arnav so he may not be dumb but he has guaranteed become emotional fool. All he needed to do was call and inform Aman and he would have taken over.

Either this is shortcoming from his character or limitation of the story where this guy is depicted as an astute businessman but in real world problems, he crumbles like a leaf in seconds and panics... Which I will ask Arpita but it is what it is.

Please don't shoot the messenger for speaking the truth and not accepting nonsense.

Yes maybe if I keep my brains aside and treat this as Govinda or Salman Khan movie, I will agree. Keep joking about his boxer and get done. But if I am a good reader, critic and want my personal favorite writer Arpita to do wonders, I take it as a moral responsibility to write what I deduce from the chapters. And of course I have freedom too. I have no qualms calling my own stories so simple, silly and armature, it is what it is...

If you don't want me to respond to your comments, I will take care of that going forward, don't worry..

I glanced through the comments and was really shocked no one, absolutely no one called Arnav meeting La alone behind Khushi's back, keeping Khushi in dark when he exactly knows why he is meeting Lavanya is a broad day light cheating and it makes him characterless, sorry but the truth. Even in legal terms, this is cheating. But someone replied saying, he met only twice, seriously??? We do live in biased world after all, it's truly disappointing but I get it. Everything about Arnav, so many of us are already convinced he is innocent, defend to the level beyond bias is unacceptable and the irony is right from the beginning writer has established he is a flawed character.

I don’t believe he set out to deliberately hurt Khushi. As I’ve said over and over I think he loves her in his own f***** up way.

I for one don’t have a lot of conflict how he ultimately handled things. I just have trouble how he was prepared to handle the child. I just think all facets of a child’s welfare trumps all. His mental condition which he doesn’t seem willing to deal with in my mind, makes him cold and heartless in this regard. He got lucky she wasn’t pregnant. Now, he has to deal with a lying *****.

I don’t think he has a soft spot for Lavenya although, in my mind, she is worse than Manali. She’s the one that pursued and slept with a married man. Unless we learn some weird thing, Manali is doing her job like Aman and that is protecting her employer.

No, I don’t think he is a horrible person. He’s just a horribly scarred, mixed up man with mental health issues. And because he has not gotten help which he acknowledges he may need, he has ruined his and his wife’s life by his very, very misguided actions.

And please don’t come after me ( not you, Swati, but the other Arnav lovers ) because, I know if you have mental health issues you are often not thinking straight enough to seek help. But he is rational in other parts of his life so it is possible that he could stop, reflect seriously on his condition and take action.

I was the first one to give him slack on his ill-treatment after Chapter 11a, because I know the mental health background and seen people in self destruction mode and he is one of them. He goes in loop and his poor decisions make him a weak, horrible man who threw his most beloved wife under the bus.

His putting it to Khushi is a start because they both need intense therapy now. Khushi could have used counseling before but because of Arnav’s actions she is so broken she needs much more intense help.

Shyam, La and Manali are distractions here. No one else breaks anyone's marriage, yes sometimes accidental ONS or adultery brings the dent but the marriage must have had some problems by itself for sure. Here 99.99% problems undoubtedly start with Arnav and will end only when he wants to fix them, at least that's how I see his character being built here.

Ironically in this story Arnav and Khushi went from rag to riches together but Khushi's character is written in such a way that she is epitome of loyalty (shares nothing negative about Arnav to anyone), beautiful inside out, sophisticated, kind hearted and believes in charity more than glitz world, stays connected to her roots, loves family, always there for them and stays grounded. She never judges Arnav, never digs old graves after he told about Anamika even after 10 years of marriage and invested in her husband fully no matter what.

We all were wrong all along, Arpita is in love with Khushi, not Arnav! What direction it is taking Arpita's personal love story??? 😛 😛

I have always refrained myself from commenting on Shyam, below my standard and Khushi should have never met him, period.

oh thank you for saying this!!! Seriously thanks a lot!! I am not sure there’s any Arnav lover here who would say that he’s a saint. He is not. He has made absolutely horrible decisions which have hurt Khushi.


For me his cross is explaining to Khushi why he thought all she wanted a baby. Has she not displayed her utter devotion to him. I understand the guilt. I don’t understand pulling away. Not talking. Stonewalling her.


The only thing where I harshly react is the name calling. Khushi gets all the benefit of doubt in the world but he needs to be better than god!

Arnav doesn't need to be god, he just need to be human using common sense and kindness. How he behaved with her was crass, insanely inhumane and this has been established by the writer herself.

All this mess was going on when Khushi came back. No wonder he could not look at her. It was betrayal on two fronts now instead of one. The worst being the news of pregnancy. That had the capacity to deliver tremendous hurt.

How did he fail Anjali? What did he mean by her turning away from him? Where is she? Some dreadful scenarios come to mind.

He was happy that the family was finally coming over. Khushi had pulled that off for him.

Manali and Lavanya corner him and talk about his marital status of all things using the pregnancy as the excuse. If they were so concerned about the image then why was Lavanya engaging in these situations? You reap what you sow. She went in for the kill the moment she had the chance. Arnav never gave her any room, she was all over him. She got careless about the pills? Seriously?

These are two women wise in the ways of the world. This whole conversation seems way too contrived. He fell for it hook line and sinker and revealed what he should not have. His mind was not working. This conversation was designed with a goal in mind. They did not plan on his ultimate reaction but they got a glimmer of hope with the news of the divorce.

Lavanya kept going on and on about how she understood and she didn't care about his divorce, but then kept circling back to try to hook him in.

What he failed to realize was that by giving them the news of the divorce, he opened himself up to more trouble.

Again, your he should have done this changes with every argument.


The one you called his hot line team is immediately in action. The moment he felt like it was needed. Prior to that he is guilty in his head. Lavanya accepted she came on to him, said it’s not a big deal. He says sorry and leaves!


I’m sorry but YOU ARE TREATING it as a govinda/ SRK movie because I do happen to come from a business family which would be considered well within the parameters of this story. People live normal lives. Yes they do have a dedicated team of lawyers, which immediately got in action the moment things go slightly downhill. Arnav did involve people immediately.


Prior to that, what do you think would have happened if Lavanya wasn’t obsessed with him and came on to him for some other angle. Maybe money or a fake sexual harassment charge? What makes you think he wouldn’t deploy this team immediately then? Your argument now is that he should have been prepared for something which we now know has happened.


Arnav and Khushi are in movie business yes. But do they look like a typical Bollywood couple? Khushi stays away from ANY limelight but let’s talk about Arnav here.


FF states repeatedly that he is a producer, not somebody whose life general public will be interested in. He is one of those people who have massive clout behind the camera, not in front of it. A monogamous couple should have been ready for a scandal like this? When Akash and Payal, also a part of movie fraternity can’t even imagine cheating ever being the reason for Arnav’s behaviour. What does that tell you about his persona???


Leave all that aside. Let’s talk about the rave. An incident as normal as putting her head on his shoulder alerted Arnav and the first thing he thinks of is that “nobody has ever dared to behave this way with her”. His marriage is treated as a fairy tale and since Lavanya seems to be the first one to “DARE” behave with him in such an informal way, he should still be prepared for it just in case he accidentally cheats on his wife? I don’t think any sane couple behaves that way.


Maybe in Bollywood, but Arnav and Khushi leave a reactive key untouched life. He hates bollywood parties too. Treats them as networks, as stepping stone. Every single party that he has been to, his musings have been clear. Gosh he hated these parties.


It would have been an entirely different thing if he wasn’t already headed towards divorce in his head. Had his marriage been normal. (He would then never be at a place like that but let’s assume he went and shit went down), what makes you think he then wouldn’t have told khushi?


I have listed down point by point and snippet by snippet every counter argument and it always changes to paint Arnav in a light that’s remotely not true to what the character has been doing.


The biggest example of his astuteness (which I don’t know why is being used as an insult ) comes from Manali herself. She KNOWS arnav has shielded khushi and his family’s private life with an iron grip. How do you think he managed to not let his divorce news leak for more than two months? If he was as stupid as you’re making him out to be?? Here’s a little jog to the memory


"You guard your personal life way too ferociously, Arnav. "Manali remarked as she idly spun the glass paperweight on the desk. "It's commendable that news of your impending divorce has yet to leak to the public. I assume this is for the sake of the soon-to-be ex-Mrs. Raizada's comfort."

Arnav hand and heart both stilled at the mention, but he chose not to look up just yet.


Here’s Arnav’s musings right there.



"Anyone could leak…" Manali began speaking, but Arnav silenced her with a wave of his hand.

"I am not done talking yet. And believe me when I say nobody else knows. How else do you think I have kept Khushi and my life relatively away from media all these years? With the amount of interest they had in my rags to riches story that they wanted to sell on those silver screens? And if I had any doubts about it before, now, with this little stunt you tried to pull here; I will know for sure who leaked the story to the press."



So Swati, to quote Arnav here. How do you think he has kept his life away from prying eyes of media if he is that stupid in your eyes???


Shyam, La and Manali are distractions here. No one else breaks anyone's marriage, yes sometimes accidental ONS or adultery brings the dent but the marriage must have had some problems by itself for sure. Here 99.99% problems undoubtedly start with Arnav and will end only when he wants to fix them, at least that's how I see his character being built here.


This is the only statement that is true to the context of what has happened here. Arnav did make massive mistakes. The biggest of them all is not communicating to a wife who has been nothing but a rock solid support. He assumed that she is unhappy. And realised his mistake too. He has hurt Khushi ( even though his intentions are Nobel) and he should repent for that.


Rest everywhere, he has done what he could have done. Your name calling like he is stupid or treated this thing worse than a vegetable vendor is frankly way too harsh on a character whose mental health you claim to understand. He has absolutely, at every step of the way, protected Khushi. He was restless when she went away and even ck fessed to the doctor I cannot take care of things from this far away.


I’m sorry. You say you don’t but you expect him to act exactly like a Bollywood/Hollywood hit shot hero who just cruises through every hurdle without breaking a sweat. Without making a mistake. Who should have puppets all around to cater to his every whim. You say you want the character to be realistic and yet, he is scum of the earth because he doesn’t fit the image of perfection.


And I think the author herself confirmed. It’s much easier to deal with business rivals. Which he is obviously used to since he built two companies from scratch. This was an attack on his personal life at a moment where he was already going through the shittiest time possible, and it left him rattled. Even there, he is the most practical man around.


Khushi got split from her husband of 10 years and is broken to a point where leaving her bed is a chore to her. She knows of cheating and is living every single day like a zombie. Her pain is understandable and real.


We now know Arnav never intended to cheat. That the idea of divorce hurt him tremendously but he was still willing TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND MAKE KHUSHI SEE that she deserves better. Is dealing with a child’s news that’s giving him literal panic attacks. Had the scare of his entire reputation being ruined. Is unable to even look at the said wife’s face because the guilt is killing him. On top of that travelling between cities for work. Is on medication for the first time in his life because he can’t sleep. But god forbid if this man makes a mistake!


That’s some real double standards!!!

What an update!! Marvelous writing Arpita! No wonder there are such intense response. Arnav in his own way decided he was protecting Khushi against the mess by buying time and having her around family. Khushi thinks Arnav is having a full fledged affair with La. It will be interesting to see how Khushi feels once the entire truth is out? Will she able to sympathize with him.
Both Arnav and Khushi have an uphill battle ahead of them. Kindness, honesty and respect and of course communication will be essential if there is a chance of them to revive their relationship. When was the last time they took a vacation? That’s another therapy they may need in a remote island !!

I am waiting for the story to unfold further.

Absolutely. I’ll gladly do this. Here are the things which the supposedly idiot in your dictionary did.


1. Did not dump the decision on Khushi when he wasn’t sure. Because he was aware even that will hurt her if he broached a subject this sensitive randomly

2. Let Khushi go because he believes he has hurt her and become vile with her

3. Is devastated that he can’t change his mind about babies so Khushi should not compromise!

4. Knows Khushi will choose a marriage over happiness. Is more practical than her. Thinks that he will have to make her understand this.

5. Is beyond guilty of what happened with Lavanya. Is a human being so decent that despite Lavanya telling him it wasn’t a big deal, apologised to her because he had one fleeting moment of consciousness

6. Learns about pregnancy, immediately asks about DNA test

7. Immediately hired an ARMY of professionals to first protect Khushi’s assets. She may not care about wealth but he is a practical man. Knows from experience why and how money matters. Anyone who says otherwise doesn’t know how real world works either. His practicality makes him smarter than he is being given credit for

8. Established already that Khushi, besides share in his will, owns majority of everything he has built

9. Tries to be an upstanding guy to a woman whose life he has supposedly ruined. He is quite literally dying under guilt.

10. Thinks at any other time, he would have gone to Khushi to talk. Deals with the whole thing alone because he is waiting for the family

11. In his head, is already not worthy of Khushi. I don’t know why or how that kind of a man is termed narcissistic so easily in your dictionary

12. Took care of pictures within a span of 7 days. But according to you, he should’ve spend that time moping and preparing media statements

13. Manali acknowledged how fiercely he protected his personal life. The reason she could threaten with the news leak is that despite it being two months, Arnav has not let the news go to media.

14. He himself thinks about it. Just because Khushi was not comfortable with cameras, it was Arnav’s design than not a single photographer or reporter dared to ever approach her

15. Is swift even after the news leak. Has people in Lucknow already. Nobody from the media reached to harass Khushi.

16. Knows what kind of a place his hometown is and yet doesn’t berate Khushi. Is dying in guilt and still made sure from far away he could protect her as best as he could

17. Your argument always ends at Khushi rejected Shyam. What was she going to do about panchayat? Tell them the truth? When second marriage topic is a taboo? I think you’ve forgotten that Khushi was basing the acceptance of truth in the panchayat on Shyam’s appearance. She was worried that the way she has behaved yesterday, Shyam would not show up to tell people the truth. The accusations against Khushi were serious and I don’t think you understand how brutal panchayat punishment could have been.

18. If Arnav doesn’t get benefit if doubt, why does Khushi get it from you? She was hurting and went back to a place that she knows is horrible to women. Accepts that Arnav was right and she made a mistake. But Arnav can’t make any mistake in your book?

19. Prioritises bringing Khushi back over EVERYTHING else.


I think I have answered all your questions in the ff snippet one. He did everything as best as he could, swiftly and intelligently. He is the victim here too. He isn’t aware of the level of Lavanya’s obsession. At this point even if he breathes it’s wrong in your dictionary.


His biggest fault is communication and stonewalling his wife of 10 years. That’s all. That’s all that ended up hurting her. And in ways that he didn’t imagine was going to unravel. I hated those lines too, but after the last two chapters I get why he said “if I knew I would break you to such extent I would not have gone ahead with the divorce”. I think that says a lot about him as a person. I am tired of answering random accusations now. They’re literally coming off of thin air without having an iota of what happened in the story in them.


I am again so sorry for the strong language. I really am. But I hope you unerstabd yours is equally harsh without taking a single thing I said into consideration. No harsh feelings. Just explaining myself on a story we both feel strongly about 👍🏻🙃

I guess his fault is he cared for khushi a bit too much!!!

He knew he could dump a decision on her and she still will never leave him. He should have carried on and not try to get her pregnant at cost of his own mental health. He should have somehow known khushi never stopped pills. He should never have looked at khushi’s strained smile and beaten himself. He should never have thought khushi should be happy with someone else because he is not able to fulfil her hearts desire. He should have become a robot and talked to khushi about divorce over tea , because he voiced his contemplation to aakash over a cigarette!! He should have never felt broken about having to let go of a woman he loved and he had no right to be vulnerable. While poor khushi needed protection from the very cheating scum of a husband, after being so brave and strong as to rejecting Shyam . Talk about double standards!!!! Basically he should have jumped from that balcony for thinking about divorcing khushi so she can live a complete life , which he is unable to provide.

I mentioned in one of my comment that I found it disgusting when khushi was living with him under the same roof on her return to Mumbai, he was not maintaining even eye contact with her because of his guilt and stayed aloof— but he was meeting La and trying to take care of that one night stand and fake pregnancy.

Any decent human being despite of ongoing whatever turmoil going on with his life, and his actions— would have gone to Khushi and revealed /maybe cried and told everything, instead of trying to take care of Khushi indirectly in the way he did. This is his moral responsibility towards decade old relationship even if he was planning for divorce. I don’t buy that unless he hates khushi which is not true.


khushi will not be that much hurt by his ONS even if he was not taken advantage of, yet his behavior afterwards and hearing from third party about divorce, pictures, the fact that he was meeting Lavanya to sort all this mess behind her back will break her completely. I can not cut a slack to Arnav on this as its all his faults in handling the mess.

Even if he was planning a divorce and ONS happened— his very first responsibility was to run and reveal it to khushi and take her in confidence besides taking care of her finances etc. He knows khushi and she never cared for money.



However I also understand that he is good human being and was trying to take care of khushi in his own way. That is why he is one of flawed character. This whole fiasco makes me sad. Circumstances shapes the personality of a person and thats what happened to Arnav. I do understand his perspective as well. He has always been the decision maker in this marriage which worked in past yet his decision about divorce and handling of it along with added mess created by two vultures/ lunatics made it worse.

Marriage or any relationship can not last long without proper communication even if there is lot of love, trust and respect. I have seen it happening in relationship with friends and siblings in my family. Even in group of friends, there are always some third party jealousy or whatever driven people who do back biting and spoil the good friendship.

Just when I imagine she is at her absolute lowest, the situations somehow dig the hole deeper for her.

Arnav will go through the worst hell possible. His pointing finger always finds himself. He anyway thinks he is not worthy of her. And he had no idea to an extent he had broken her (his own admission). Now what will he do? How will he look at her and tell her I misread you to a point where I have caused this? 💔💔💔

Khushi is in for another heartbreak and I am there with her. My heart has already broken a little for Arnav, it will shatter for Khushi 😭😭


I don’t know, maybe all I can think about this situation is khushi being angry for the first time on the ppl who made her Arnav go through hell. He wasn’t infidel , I hope khushi has that much rational !!! Yes , knowing that could have resulted in pregnancy would hurt a lot , but it wasn’t like it was Arnav willingly got lavanya pregnant. Maybe I am expecting too much but I feel she would rise up to the challenge. She has done a lot of bechari already!!!

Okay guys chill out.


This chapter seems to have caused a lot of trouble and we are nearing the end of the thread already (damn 🙈)


So let’s calm down and I’ll try to answer some questions. You all get 2 questions each and they can be anything - except the future chapters obviously 😅


I understand that not everyone will agree to my POV, but I can try to tell you what I intended.

I’d be pretty happy though if I don’t get any questions at all LMAO. but yeah, in case you want to. 2 questions each ;)

What is strange to me is, how come in 10 years he never showed his mental weakness to khushi and how she never know the extent. 10 FREAKING YEARS not enough for him to open up to khushi?


Till the time he kept khushi as his anchor i.e till 2013 he was fine, but the moment he started distancing from her his mental health went down the drain.

oh how did I miss this!!!!! Such an important topic.


Everyone around him told him he isn’t able to deal with Khushi’s absence. He DERAILED. Khushi’s dependence on him can be seen. But he is anchored to her too! 💔
