guys i don't know if u remember this but i have read it in an article before the serial started. it was a question asked to ekta: why did she choose iqbal to play as shiv in her new serial?
ekta replied: because i wanted a face on which two women are ready to die for...
this tells us that both gauri and ipshita are in love with shiv, however shiv loves only one of them and from what we have seen so far its one and only GAURI....
so guys don't worry abt the ipshita and shiv angle, its just to confuse us and besides someone needs to be a villian. ipshita will try every little trick her mind can inspire to seperate shiv/gauri and have shiv for herself which offcourse will never happen.😊
