Shalini, I really love how thorough your analyses are! There are so many amazing points you brought up in today's analysis, especially the relationship dynamics between the trio (Anjali-Arnav-Khushi)- nothing more to be said on that. I appreciate how well you understand these relationships and share that understanding with us.
Excellent point 1: Communication, communication, communication! Isn't it always the problem in any relationship? Either lack of or poor communication, both are responsible for misunderstandings (or lack of understanding) thus generating friction. This is evident not just in Arnav-Khushi relationship, but Payal-Akash, Arnav-Anjali (big blunder today on Arnav's part asking Anjali for Khushi's whereabouts, but excellent foreshadowing for future!), Mami-Khushi, Khushi-Anjali, etc. Sidenote: Why does Arnav always leave the important bits unsaid? He did it twice as you've pointed out recently. Once was during the Heer-Ranjha performance when he "died" without completing his speech. And all those times in the past when he didn't finish that iconic sentence, "Farak padta hai kyunki...!"
Point 2: I too have noticed the whole dupatta over hand thing! It might be too early to say but I think it's probably meant to indicate that although they've united, something has come between them that prevents them from becoming one. It could be Khushi's decision to leave him, or it could be the contract marriage (or both, but most likely the latter). Both the times Arnav tried to reach out to Khushi, there was that veil between them.
Point 3: Yep, noticed the Anjali-Arnav-Khushi parallel too. Anajli demands of him, Khushi gives to him. But I'm not worried about Khushi emptying out because ASR won't let her. Despite how deeply ASR hurt Khushi, her absence took such precedence in his mind that he didn't think twice before asking Anjali about Khushi. And that gives me hope that although he has been one step behind Khushi in the past and is always just a little too late, the tide is starting to turn and he won't be late this time. There is an imbalance in the give-take aspect of their relationship but they'll learn how to balance each other and how to move forward together.
Point 4: What is it about Gupta House? Anytime the two have been in it together, there have been major leaps in their relationship (forward or backward). I don't know what to expect tomorrow! And I'm so happy Garima, Shashi, and my fav Buaji is back with all her "hai re Nandkishore"s! (Speaking of, I hope NK joins the gang too!)
Overall, a brilliant post! Are you going to do one for tomorrow? I will look forward to it twice as much in case you do :)
