I think his character is made like this. he was so damn rude with her all the time he just not want to hurt her more. and the same thing goes in intimate scenes. he is just respecting khushi (not sanaya) and her views. he doenot want to do anything which will hurt her so he is much much polite with her. and somehow i like it.
yes he could have been more intimate to her and as an actor i dont think he will deny the things. but i think it is more to do with his characterization. the scenes look much more magical because he is suttle. dont worry there will be days when he will be passionate. but friday's episode demanded him to be suttle as he was going through emotional turmoil. he was remembering his parants, he was remembering the pain that he has given khushi and he just couldnot pound on her. that would have looked out of place i think.
I think CVs are tightening their belt now. they are slowly changing his character. Barun is just doing fine.
its entirely my POV
Hi Appy, I agree with you. Whilst in character ASR and Arnav are still merging and as such he is not sure how Khushi will react to any physical demands. This is a man who is still unsure of himself and his feelings in the sense that he still fears rejection. This is why he keeps asking Khushi to promise that she will not leave him.
Arnav became ASR to deal with his insecurities. He experienced losing love at at a young age and buried all feeling of vulnerability to avoid the pain of loving and losing that love. Now that Arnav is resurfacing he still has doubts and that must come thru in his acting.Khushi has alway been " touchy, feely" and very demonstrative and she did not let the loss of her parents control her life. That's because her parents died in an accident and not by suicide. It must be a bitter pill for any young child to accept that a parent chose to end their life rather than stay with that child! Whilst not ideal Khushi still had an adopted mother and father. Arnav had to shoulder the full responsability on his own with just his sister who loved him but was incapable of taking care of herself farless a younger brother.That sort of insecurity and fear of rejection takes years to overcome and that's why it is important for Khushi to trust in him and always wait for him to explain himself. She fell in love with a very complex man. Life will never be a bed of roses but, if you put such a man first in your life and give him that security to know that never mind what you will always put him first, then the rewards are plentiful!Right now Arnav will need some time to get over that shock that Dadi dropped on him but I am 100% confident that he will go to Khushi. He will be late but he will not abandon her. The question remains if she will wait or if at the first hurdle she will walk away! I hope she understands that promise she made to him and stands by her man!Sounds like I am lecturing? No just sharing my own experience with a complex man who loves me dearly but I made a lot of mistakes in understanding him and mistaking his quite reserve. It took me years of therapy to really understand our relationship but the one thing that kept me going was knowing that he did love me. I guess this is why I really feel for Arnav even when he is at his worse!Take care and have a lovely day!Maya Di
