I would like to see ishan mauli as endgame,in the stairs scene ishaan gave support to mauli and mauli wasn't accepting of it for some seconds but eventually she kind of leaned towards him too to accept him being there for her.So I would like to see this slow build up of their relationship.
If maunal is endgame then I hope they will be realistic and show mauli going to kunal primarily for pari and kunal saying yes because of pari too,i don't want to see them falling in love again.
I don't know about mishti-kunal though,if kunal feels half the pain and guilt for denying mishti's existence and for being a non existent father to her that mauli felt today then I will be surprised.
Also,I think one of the reasons people claim mauli is the writer's favourite character is because they think that the writer said that mauli was her dream come true character, as much as I know this is a case of miscomprehension/misinformation as what the writer really said was "aditi is my dream come true mauli."
She was praising aditi,not mauli😆
