This is basically what came into my head when I watched the DDLJ segment this morning. All good things have to come to an end eventually. The last few episodes have been an absolute pleasure to watch (literally) but this is an Indian serial at the end of the day, no fun without the twists and turns 😆
I may be thinking way outside the box but I feel both MPK and DDLJ are hinting towards the Manohar track a great deal. In both movies, the fathers had been the biggest obstacle in their love stories, albeit for completely different reasons. In MPK, Prem's father disapproved of Suman first and afterwards Suman's father needed proof of his worthiness for his daughter's hand in marriage. Again, similarly in DDLJ, Simran's father was against their relationship. I'm not going to keep going on about the movies because you've all probably watched them.
Anyway so relating it back to TEI. Unintentionally, Manohar will become the cause of dispute between Kunj and Twinkle, after all he wont be there to support his daughter-in-laws actions and I'm pretty sure Usha will be a catalyst somewhere along the line. But having said that, eventually, like the fathers in both movies who lost in front of their children's love for each other, TwiNj will come out triumphant and stronger than ever. (Provided the CVs decide to keep Manohar in the show and not kill him off because that would slaughter my chain of thoughts 😆)
