I believe Anuj become more obessed with Upma after maya track!!

No wonder woh Mata devi ke peeche pada hua no matter how many shah and Mata ji ignored him especially with Vanraj assault Anuj .... this guy literally forget his self respect and the most important he even forgive malti devi ...

He is under immense emotional PRESSURE…

He loves vanraj more

He cannot stay running to shah house everyday for vanu darshan

Hes only bearing anupama for vanu

kahi pe nigayein kahin pe nishana case

The only reason Anu/raj get more tracks together is probably because Sudhanshu and Rupali have an easy chemistry with each other whilst Gaurav and Rupali look a bit miismatched. They should not have introduced Anuj as someone who has always been in love with upmaa and she gets overwhelned by it. They could have established it as a college crush rekindling after decades or something.
