Alternate Ending 1- Arnav Does Not Stop Khushi After the Fashion Show Fiasco
Khushi Leaves AR After Being Humiliated
After being publicly humiliated by Arnav Singh Raizada at the fashion show, Khushi decides to leave AR Designs. She packs up her belongings and quietly resigns, her heart heavy with hurt and disappointment. Arnav watches her leave but, blinded by his ego and rage, does nothing to stop her.
Khushi (to herself):
“Humari self-respect humare liye sabse zaroori hai. Ek aise insaan ke saath kaam karna jo sirf beizzati karta hai, wo humse nahi hoga.”
She walks out of AR Designs, vowing never to cross paths with Arnav again.
Khushi Rebuilds Her Life
Determined to start fresh, Khushi joins a new job at a small event management company. Her warmth, creativity, and resilience quickly earn her recognition. Despite her heartbreak, she pours her energy into her work, slowly regaining her confidence.
Meanwhile, Arnav immerses himself in work but finds it increasingly difficult to focus. The absence of Khushi nags at him, though he refuses to admit why.
Arnav Realizes His Mistake
Months later, Arnav stumbles upon a charity event organized by Khushi’s new company. To his surprise, the event is impeccably planned, with every detail radiating Khushi’s signature charm. Watching her from a distance, he is struck by the realization that he has not just lost a talented employee but someone who had brought an inexplicable spark to his life.
Arnav (to himself):
“Kyun lagta hai jaise maine kuch zaruri kho diya hai? Woh ladki… woh humesha mujhe challenge karti thi, par uske jaane ke baad sab khali sa lagta hai.”
Fate Brings Them Together Again
During the event, Khushi’s boss introduces her to Arnav, not knowing their shared history.
Boss:
“Mr. Raizada, meet Khushi Gupta. She’s the creative mind behind this event.”
Khushi’s polite but distant demeanor catches Arnav off guard. Her lack of warmth unsettles him, and for the first time, he feels the weight of his actions.
Arnav:
“Good job, Ms. Gupta. I hope you’re doing well.”
Khushi (with a faint smile):
“Thank you, Mr. Raizada. Excuse me, I have other tasks to attend to.”
She walks away, leaving Arnav to grapple with the uncomfortable truth: he had pushed away someone who mattered.
Arnav Tries to Make Amends
Unable to ignore his guilt, Arnav decides to apologize. He visits Khushi at her office, but she refuses to entertain him.
Khushi:
“Apology? Woh bhi aapse? Arnav Singh Raizada ko kabse apni galti ka ehsaas hone laga?”
Arnav (sincerely):
“Mujhe galti ka ehsaas ho chuka hai, Khushi. Jo maine tumhare saath kiya, uska koi excuse nahi hai. Main bas ek mauka chahta hoon… tumse baat karne ka.”
Though hesitant, Khushi agrees to hear him out.
A Second Chance at Trust
Over time, Arnav’s efforts to make amends soften Khushi’s guarded heart. He acknowledges her talent and courage, and for the first time, allows himself to be vulnerable.
Arnav (to Khushi):
“Tumne mujhe sikhaaya ki insaan ka ego uske rishton se bada nahi hota. Tum meri zindagi ka ek hissa ban chuki thi, aur maine usse khud tod diya.”
Khushi (after a pause):
“Aapne bahut dukh diye hain, Arnav ji. Lekin shayad hum dono ko ek nayi shuruaat ki zarurat hai.”
They agree to start over, not as employer and employee, but as two people willing to give each other a chance.
Their relationship grows slowly but steadily, built on mutual respect and understanding. Arnav learns to let go of his arrogance, and Khushi discovers that beneath his hard exterior lies a heart capable of immense love.
Their love story, though delayed by ego and misunderstandings, finds its way back, proving that sometimes, even broken roads can lead to beautiful destinations.
