But vo Chai ka cup and Vikrant asking her to accept him as her partner reminded me so much of Zaroon and Kashaf 
This one if anyone has not seen it...

Zaroon became a shield for Kashaf... in Mannats episode... Vikrant wanted to become her shield.. and while he couldn't save her from the garam chai... he made sure he could soothe it 
Nice observation. That garam chai ka cup totally played the game changer in Zaroon-Kashaf's relationship.
Just like Mannat, Kashaf is also a strong woman and she has always faced her demons alone. Remember, in one of her diary entries, Kashaf mentions that "tum mujhe sangemarmar samjhte ho... samajhte raho. Main tumhare aage rait ki deewar nahi ban sakti. Mujhe toot jaane se khauf aata hai." Zaroon perceives her as strong as a marble. She likes it that way and doesn't want to show her vulnerable self in front of him.
In the last episode, at the beachside, Vikrant compared her to the strong rock on the seabed that never breaks down no matter how hard the tumultuous sea tries to break it. There's a parallel connection there too.
Mannat's strong will is what Vikrant admires the most. The same goes with Zaroon and Kashaf. Mannat and Kashaf are entirely different than the other women in both Vikrant and Zaroon's life, respectively. That made them stand out as the centre of attraction in both Vikrant and Zaroon's eyes.
