in a relationship like SG ... where there is ample understanding, loads of togetherness... and an amazing friendship ... a bond soo pure, so genuine that there can be nothing more beautiful than that ... two individuals are soo content wit knowing wat the other person is for them .. that they barely even try to speculate whether there can be anything beyond that !!! they are soo happy jus to be wit each other ... hence it does not matter to them whether or not the other person might think of him/her as something more that jus a friend ... heck, even they dont think abt the other person that way !!!
this is the first stage of such a relationship ... which was obvious, after the V-day celebrations... they wer delighted ... overjoyed ... ecstatic ... they both knew that they had found a friend .. read : a friend without quotes , for life !!!
now ... there eventually comes a second stage, wherein, either one person begins to think differently ... but that change in thoughts doesnt cum all of a sudden ... it happened for gunjan...she never started thinking abt whether samrat was something more than a friend for her .. until she was taunted upon by aparajita, abt whether samrat is her boy-friend during the RJ hunt ... until then, she didnt even kno that the emotion called love .. could be corelated wit her best friend ... and hence, she started to think abt him that way .. which eventually lead her to understand that maybe .. jus maybe she is in love wit him .. and then to her ultimate realisation that she is in love wit him ...
samrat, all this while .. has been in stage one of that relationship ... he is completely clueless of his own feelings ... jus like gunjan was 5 months ago ...
jus like gunjan, he cannot hav the realisation on his own ... he is soo used to considering gunjan as his best friend ... and fcourse his endless inferiority complex around her that he cannot even begin to think abt her that way ....unless, he has some clue ... that might lead him to think abt her in a diff manner than he's used to think ... n wat better way than to let him kno wat gunjan feels for him ... he never thought abt her that way, but now...when he comes to kno what his best friend feels abt him..he might want to think abt her in a different manner ... might want to think of her more than her friend ...
tho he shudnt hav to kno that thru sheee-na ... however, in today's epi...instead of staying silent...if gunjan wud hav confessed her love for him ...he wud hav had a much better realisation of what she is for him ...
she already means soo much to him ... he jus needs to kno what those feelings are ...
even tho I was initially against him knowing abt her feelings first ..now after a lot of thinking, this is wat I conclude ...
do put forth ur views! 😊
P.S. extremely sorry for the long post ... 😳😳
