great post 👏
and I absolutely love Khushi. I love Arnav too but sometimes his actions just get to me. But I don't think I have ever been frustrated with Khushi.
A lot of people actually get frustrated with Khushi's OTT-ness actually - I've seen many posts about it on the forum. Personally I think the only time I was a little upset with her was when she was trying to get Lavanya to change Arnav's mind about marriage - I thought that was over-stepping her boundaries because at the end of the day it's his life and his choices about things like marriage especially. But obviously I also knew it was a set up for the time when she and Arnav would get married, and it would highlight how Lavanya could never be to Arnav what Khushi is.
Arnav's actions, I think, are meant to get to us. He is dark, he is arrogant, he is mean - he's a typical Mills & Boon hero all in all. But nevertheless we all fall in love with him and our hearts go out to him.
Kudos to Barun and Sanaya actually here - no matter what the situation or the emotion they are required to portray, they manage to do it utterly brilliantly.
