Since I think its a tie between the 2 colour codes, so have made the siggis on both the colour codes, Shiri once the colour code is finalized do select either one.
These are nice! Can you just reduce the color capacity a little? Of the first two.. Baaki sab first class hai ji

Aah! Lovely
for this one I liked the Blue theme. How about using the Reddish-Brown hues for Character Siggies and above kinda Blue for Scene edits?
The thread would look like with one color code Stuti, we can't keep one cc for character and another for scenes. One CC would make the thread harmonious.
Right at the onset, it is clear that her simplicity and innocence is not be mistaken for foolishness or naivete. While not as educated as Arnav, Khushi Kumari Gupta is worldly wise and not afraid of standing up for what she believes to be right. Despite the hardships that she has faced, whether it being orphaned at a young age or the prejudices that come with being adopted, she maintains a cheerful disposition and her sunny personality manages to brighten everyone's lives around her.
She has a fiercely independent streak and takes up the responsibilities of her family and home without any hesitation. That pits her against Arnav on various occasions as she works for him and later for his sister and grandmother. Her traditional qualities make her a favorite among the Raizadas, as well as Arnav's girlfriend Lavanya, who dislikes her in the beginning, but becomes her friend later.
Unknown to her, Arnav's brother-in-law Shyam likes her and twists circumstances such that she gets engaged to him while on the other hand, Arnav gets engaged to Lavanya. She starts developing feelings for Arnav, but given the fact that they are both engaged to different people, she tries her best to stay away from him.
A romantic person at heart, she helps her sister Payal and Arnav's brother Akash get together. While preparing for their wedding, she finds out the truth about Shyam, but on her family's insistence, hides it from the Raizadas. This brings her downfall later as Arnav misunderstands the situation and marries her forcefully by threatening to stop Payal and Akash's marriage. For her sister's sake, she gets married to him, but tries her best to annoy him so that he will break off the marriage himself.
When Arnav finally tells her the reason for their marriage, she tries her best to convince him of the truth but is delayed because Arnav gets kidnapped. This period brings out a lot of her qualities as she shows her cleverness, bravery, and also the depth of her love as she tracks the kidnappers down, rescuing Arnav while nearly dying herself. This opens Arnav's eyes and they are eventually able to move past the fake marriage and towards a real one.
Even after their marriage, she faces difficulties in the form of Arnav's ex-girlfriend Sheetal who claims to be the mother of Arnav's child. Being an orphan herself, she feels an empathy for the kid Aarav and decides to leave Arnav so that he can be with his son. Even after Sheetal is revealed to be a fraud, she doesn't hesitate in adopting Aarav, providing him with a stable and loving home, while also imbibing discipline and good values in him.
From gate-crashing a fashion show by mistake to participating in Mrs. India contest and winning it, Khushi Kumari Gupta (Singh Raizada) takes us on an unconventional voyage of love, teaching us to live in the moment (Carpe diem) and enjoy every day as it comes, no matter how painful the past or uncertain the future might be.
Arnav Singh Raizada
With the very first episode, we are introduced to a hard-hearted businessman who is willing to go to any extent to get what he wants, whether it be revenge or love. We only see his merciless side in the beginning, as he ousts his own uncle from their old mansion and abuses Khushi when she gate-crashes his fashion show. His softer side is later revealed bit by bit in his interactions with his loved ones, especially his beloved sister.
Nonetheless, this gentle attitude is reserved for very few people, and all others, including his girlfriend Lavanya are subjected to his temper. When Khushi joins his office, he misses no chance in harassing her, only later realizing his mistake when he inadvertently ends up risking her life. That is the first time he feels any remorse for his actions, and we finally start seeing some changes in his behavior even though it takes a long time and plenty of other mistakes before his journey towards becoming a better human being gets completed.
Even as falling in love with Khushi starts bringing out his candid side - the one which is not so jaded and disillusioned by the world around him; fate intervenes and he ends up misunderstanding an interaction between Khushi and his brother-in-law Shyam which leads him to marry Khushi forcefully to save his pregnant sister's marriage. Even after months of spending time with an innocent Khushi, he refuses to believe her, only accepting her love for him when he gets kidnapped and she saves him at great mortal peril.
Once he finally starts trusting her, there is no looking back. When his ugly past rears its head in the form of Dadi, we find out why the sensitive and vulnerable teenager turned into this cold and stony man. But, he wins the battle with his own internal conflicts and goes on to show how much true love can change someone.
From the ruthless businessman to the caring husband, we witness the journey of Arnav Singh Raizada as he overcomes his demons and manifests Omnia Vincit Amor (Love conquers all).
Payal Gupta/Raizada
She defined elder sister's love, trust and protection. After her wedding was broken, she was more worried for Khush than her broken wedding. As soon as she heard the scooter sound, amidst all the stress, heartache and Buaji's taunts, she felt so relieved and happy to find her sister back. She even tried to run to the front door to check on her sister. The first thing she asked Khushi was "are you OK?"
Payal was always with Khushi and did whatever she can do in Khushi's plans to support Buaji.
She got worried when Khushi did not return for a long time on the day she was trapped in the dilapidated warehouse. She tried Khushi's number, AR office and finally Shantivan to find out about her sister. She even suggested they should go to the police. She did not hesitate to give her piece of mind Arnav when Arnav brought Khushi back.
Another incident was when she tried to quietly celebrate Khushi's birthday. She made Khushi's favourite food, she embroidered a simple saree and added a border as per Khushi's liking and wished Khushi to be happy.
Payal never felt she has to be the most important person in her parents' life. She happily shared their love with her adopted sister and even treated her like her own baby girl.
The influence of Raizadas was so much that our sweet Payal got lost somewhere after she got married.
Soft spoken and somewhat timid at first glance, he reveals himself to be fairly determined when the need arises. Where Anjali acts as a buffer for Arnav at home, he does the same in office; soothing the ruffled feathers that are caused by his elder brother's brazen attitude. He is very much family oriented, easily giving into their demands, whether it be his mother, brother or grandmother.
Despite this, he can be unrelenting and stubborn, albeit in a tender and persuasive manner. He displays these qualities when he falls in love with Payal, convincing her to marry him with a dramatic proposal. Later when Manorama objects to their marriage, he takes a stand against her, managing to sway her with Arnav's help. But, after their marriage, he finds it hard to strike a balance between his mother and wife, especially when there are other family issues going on around them. Even so, he tries to be there for everyone as a silent yet strong pillar of the household.
In the end, he decides to shift overseas to manage their business there. This move shows that Akash Singh Raizada is starting to grow independently and perhaps he is finally ready to spread his wings and move beyond his family drama, to focus on his relationship with Payal and his own career.
Arnav's elder sister by relation but more like his mother, her world revolves around her family, in particular her Chhote and husband Shyam. She has faced tragedies in her past, but manages to overcome them and keep smiling regardless. Her sweet persona acts as the perfect buffer to Arnav's bitter and biting words, thus managing to glue their odd family together.
She loves Shyam dearly and wishes that her brother will get to experience the same feeling with someone, which is why she accepts Lavanya in the household at first and ships Arnav with Khushi later. Her happiness knows no bounds when she finds out that she is pregnant but is left devasted when she finds out that her husband was deceptive and a fraud.
Although initially she refuses to believe the accusations against Shyam, even going against her family's wishes by meeting him secretly; when she finally learns the truth, she manages to stand strong and oust him from their lives. Even though she suffers from a miscarriage and then a broken marriage, she emerges from it all as a much more powerful individual. Forged by fire, the gullible Anjali Singh Raizada turns into a sensible and competent woman; still gentle and loving, but no longer delicate and vulnerable.
When Akash's cousin from Sydney arrived for his wedding, no one expected that they would be introduced to such a delightful character. When he develops a crush on Khushi, it would have been easy to hate him for coming in between our favorite couple. But, he manages to win hearts with his charming looks and adorable personality. His broken Hindi gives us some light hearted moments and he works as a perfect comic relief in the beginning.
It is only later, when he comes back after a sabbatical, that we see his more serious side as he helps Khushi in rescuing Arnav from the kidnappers. Even though he was infatuated with Khushi before her marriage to Arnav, he accepts their relationship gracefully and stays as a true friend to her.
He showed us that being funny or talkative did not mean being foolish or gullible and that cheerful guys could also be solemn in grave situations. Most importantly, NK demonstrated that Ladka aur Ladki sirf dost bhi ho sakte hai (A boy and a girl can be friends too).
Manorama Singh Raizada
Manorama Singh Raizada, the eldest daughter in law of the Raizada household, and the mother of Akash Singh Raizada and the aunt of NK and Bubbly. She is protective of her husband’s sister kids and treats them like own and she loves doing make-up and being tip-top modern. Her famous catchphrases Hello Hi Bye Bye, and she has good eye as a detective. She initially had disliked the Gupta Sisters and often rebuked them for their middle-class, even though she too hails from one and it also hinted that she has eloped and married her husband Manohar Singh Raizada.
Madhumatti Gupta aka Buaji is a woman full of love and determination who ain't taking any shit when it's about her nieces. She's really close to traditions and has full faith in her Nandkishore. Funny at times yet loving and protective. She treats her brother's daughters and son-in-laws as her very own children.
Shyam Manohar Jha
What can we say about this guy! His sweet and scary persona was so believable. Though some of his acts brought Khushi and Arnav closer, he was menacing most of the times. One minute he acted lovey-dovey with his wife and in the next like a maniac while holding her in his arms. I am sure Raizadas would have never found out his true self without his help. They ignored all signs and did not even try to find what he did in Lucknow and in Lakshmi Nagar. They never tried to find what exactly he was doing as a lawyer and how the supposed house construction was going.
His creepy self showed up earlier than anticipated and the away he tried to methodically remove obstacles from his way one by one to get his hands on Khushi and Arnav's property was nicely done.
Devyani Singh Raizada
Devyani Singh Raizada, the matriarch of the Raizada family and the maternal grandmother of Arnav and Anjali Singh Raizada and the paternal grandmother of Akash Singh Raizada. She is jovial, loving but at the same time very protective of her family and tries to uphold family traditions and customs, and even after all these years, she only plays holi with her late husband's water guns. She is often seen with her pet goat Laxmi. She was once a talented dancer of her own time, and never fails to showcase her talent for her grandsons wedding.
Lavanya Kashyap. From disliking Khushi and her sense of fashion to becoming her best friend and dressing up like her, Lavanya underwent a drastic change of persona. Her sacrificing her love after realizing Arnav's feelings for Khushi will forever be remembered. Lavanya's journey shows that first impression is not always the last impression.
Manohar Singh Raizada
Manohar Singh Raizada, the eldest child of the Raizada household, Manohar does his best to keep peace alive in the household especially between his always warring wife and mother. He is a man of wisdom, values and sense of humor. He has raised his sister’s kids like his own. Withbearing all the expenses of his tantrum queen wife, he remained calm and composed ever till he got old and he is currently handling AR designs overseas business with Akash.
The loving mother of Payal and Khushi, an example that motherhood doesn't require a birth. Garima Gupta is a soft-spoken, caring, loyal and a selfless woman. Her only desire is for her daughters to be happy in their lives. A lady of principles and manners with a hidden past plaguing her niece's present.
Shashi Gupta
The demeanor, the protection, the trust and the love were so palpable in Shashi. He is a family man and managed all relations so well. He is a no nonsense guy. If something doesn't look correct or looks suspicious, he addresses it straightaway. His love for Khushi and their bond is so special. As a biological daughter Payal got his love by default. He did not want Khushi to feel left out or an outsider. He gave same love and more to Khushi. Whenever his sister tried to put Khushi down, he tried to stop her and supported Khushi. Shyam truly took the one obstacle out who had the ability to turn the world upside down to protect Khushi.
He was so jovial and joined in a dance with his wife and daughters. The way he dealt with Khushi's apprehension when Payal's wedding was broken was so heart warming.
Subhadra Malik {Dadi}
Arnav's dadi, Subhadra Malik is Devyani's childhood friend, overall pious and orthodox who spent the last 14 years as seen on the show in an ashram after her younger son kicks out her grandchildren from their ancestral home. Subhadra is staunch believer of traditions, and her own interpretation of what is right and wrong. First impressions are a big deal for her. She is not find of Arnav removing his father's name from his name and usually tries blaming others for the flaws of her own family members.
Arnav's ex-girlfriend Sheetal Kapoor comes back to trick him trying to prove that she has a son with Arnav. But it only brings Arnav and Khushi closer making their bond stronger. Later, Arnav successfully exposes her as a gold digger and gets her arrested
Khushi wanted to adopt Aarav as her own son and Arnav too agreed on to her decision. Arnav and Aarav had already developed a strong bond when Sheetal was there ,but after adopting Aarav, Khushi too developed a bond of mother and son when Arnav was busy pampering Aarav and giving him the best of things ,but being a mom Khushi was stubborn in making Aarav learn the reality of life that's when Mrs.India contest struck Khushi mind ,and Aarav supported her in her decision and gave her a piece of advice of never looking back and face all the challenges in every level, towards the second last round of Mrs.India was a beautiful moment where Aarav finally calls Khushi mother, when the judge questions Aarav, what is that one complaint that Khushi has from Aarav and that is that to call her mom!
Aman
Wow Aman, the guy who has no face has proved to be more worthy than many of the others who had a face. I mean he was everywhere in the show be it while talking to him on the phone or while asking for him or while delegating chores to him. It is a different popularity when it came to stories written on IPKKND. Though he was made a villain when he interrupted the Diwali kiss, he became a super hero in many of the stories. He was even given the post of Anjali's husband after Shyam was sent to jail. In some stories he had his own story with Pari.
Actually it was good that the Diwali kiss was interrupted. It would have made no sense if they kissed on that day.
Khushi telling Arnav "Amanji ka phone ayega tho?" to avoid Arnav from kissing her on their engagement day was the highlight.
