I like both Arnav and Kushi and from time to time I take issue with them both.
Today I felt for Khushi. This does not mean that I dislike Arnav. I do not justify how he did not seem to take into account the sentiments of the Guptas. However, I understand his perspective. I believe that he has been thrown out of his comfort zone into something unfamiliar without much warning. He will eventually get there, but in the process some heartache is bound to occur. I believe that both Khushi and Arnav will come out of this experience with a better understanding of each other, although they might end up annoying one another in the process.
I believe that it is possible to like both the characters and yet retain some objectivity whilst looking at their positives and negatives. Pointing out and analysing a character's flaw does not amount to 'bashing' as it has been so frequnrtly referred to in this forum. Similarly, liking one charcter does not mean the other charcter is disliked.
This show is about both Arnav and Khushi and not either on their own. We are bound to feel a range of emotions for both of them as they go through different ups and downs in their journey of love.
Today although we sensed Arnav's discomfort , it was Khushi's pain that had a bigger impact on us.
