I got your point ..
Makers never invested enough time on showing Anishit incompatibility or anything fruitful regarding Anishit, positive or negative...Arshi angle is always used to ignite viewers' displeasure and irritation..The makers wasted time on showing Anishit faltu convos after aag incident. Instead, they could have invested the same time and effort in showing growing incompatibility between Anishit. This would have made Anirudh's claim of his inability to adjust with her clearer to the eyes...ofcourse incompatibility has been there for a long time, but it was never pointed out explicitly for the viewers..those who analyse the characters will understand the incompatibility angle more deeply, others will judge it superficially..
Because that is not the goal of the story to show the unraveling of Anishi equation in a mature way....that never happens in these kind of ITV shows....their goal is always drama drama drama.
And they got drama out of keeping Ani in pendulum confused mode by showing him reiterating for so long that he will marry Arshi, he loves Arshi blah blah even as he remained helplessly drawn to Jhanak....is plot se drama mil raha tha so they continued it for so long.
Waise bhi is show mein sirf evil Bose fam keeps repeating what they believe...doesn't make it the truth. They also keep abusing Jhanak constantly but audience ka khud ka dimaag hai to see Jhanak for what she is....so even if Bose fam keeps praising Arshi as great guni girl, audience ne uski harkatein apni aakhon se bhi dekhi hain no matter how much characters in the show have propped her up.
...but nice to meet you again :)
