Following the request of "music_girl", I'm going to do my analysis on Anubav's love for Gungun. I defended him a bit in "While fasting...Hunger...", then I did his analysis in "Anubav... Science can't solve everything...", don't think I "love" Anubav, no, I just look at the character and analyse him so I don't have to get angry every time I see his face...
For this analysis, I ask you to imagine a staircase (we'll go up and down some steps) and we'll be able to talk about Anubav's love for Gungun.
Well, I'm not going to open a restaurant and talk about a dish or about Anubav's hunger (lol I love that too, ReadLo will stay quiet...)...
Let's get started.
Anubav is at the top of the stairs of the K-house and Gungun is at the bottom.
Anubav has to go down the stairs to reach his wife.
The beginning... Anubav looks down on Gungun! And it's not just figuratively...!
But who is she? What planet did she come from?
The girl wears modern clothes, she's too "cheerful", she's always hooked on her phone, and above all she can't "talk", her intelligence is very limited. OMG save me! This is Anubav's inner cry.
Know when there is an intellectual gap, the person with the highest IQ is the one who gets tired quickly, so it's normal that Anubav can't hold a conversation with Gungun without feeling irritated or simply overwhelmed... Because the two are not at the same level. For Gungun, she can use humour to defuse worries, but Anubav is too down to earth to even try... So we already have a big gap...
We haven't moved... The first meeting will certainly not make Anubav want to see what the world of Gungun is like... So we go on.
The family wants the two to get married. Gungun's father wants his daughter to have a family, and the family K wants the prodigal son to come out of his universe and land in the human (alien Anubav...) world.
Anubav is taken down a step.
They spend time together, willingly or not. He has to make the effort to talk to Gungun. He makes her irritated, he doesn't want to talk to her, he makes her understand that "normal people" won't do this or that. This is the beginning of Anubav's 'interest'. Not in the "love" sense, but the interest of teaching someone something, so he unintentionally opens up.
Everyone has their own plans for this "imposing" marriage, who is really upfront in the story?
Anubav. Despite all her words, Gungun isn't really upfront in her refusal, it's just Anubav's character that pushes her away. Yes, yes, you'll say, she was in her own world, that she didn't see marriage like that, but you mustn't forget that inside she is thirsty for something...
But here comes the "contracts", but look at the link of destiny, the bracelet remains attached to Anubav... Open your eyes!
But Anubav has gone down a step again, he talks to Gungun, he gives him advice. He is being a bit patient. But he's still prejudiced, because he always needs to hear things...
Gungun becomes part of the family, which makes Anubav watch "the show". Even though he doesn't care about this marriage, but he has responsibilities towards his family, and the K family wants a daughter-in-law! So...
Anubav goes down one more step, we are in the middle of the stairs...
But in the meantime Gungun says she has a boyfriend, so Anubav wonders what he's in for, then... The she-devil shows up... So far Anubav has seen the father and the daughter, but the mother was missing...
He came up from a staircase. He sees the mother in the daughter indirectly, his prejudices come back in force... But the women of his family try to explain to him that Gungun is not bad, but is a "child" (phew, funny way of helping to love her...) so Anubav tries, so he goes down one more step...
They are opposites, but he has an attraction. Their little arguments, are so endearing, it will bond, and their moment with the other family members makes it all fun...
Anubav's head doesn't quite agree, but the pounding he feels in his chest is there... He can't put it into words yet. He is a man of fact, so feelings are not for him...
First shock... Gungun's accident. Then when she got sick, then when Ronnie tried to get at her, little by little Anubav started to gravitate towards her. There is no attachment, but he already put her in the box of "her responsibilities", but he had a newfound sensitivity for her.
Anubav doesn't really understand what is happening to her, but for him they are heading towards their marriage, whatever they had planned, basically.
But Maya has destroyed everything.
The man is angry, he doesn't understand anything anymore, the staircase is falling apart... But as Gungun is nothing to him, he doesn't mind breaking off their engagement after all it was an act from the beginning. So no matter what happens, he will end up getting married...
The love he has for Gungun is "blind", he didn't understand what he "lost" until he really "lost" him.
He flies to her rescue, things have happened, he has married the one he was supposed to marry.
He knows the meaning of his act, but he has a commitment elsewhere.
He is on automatic pilot. His life is underneath. But his heart knows what's going on.
Another big change, the shock that finally made him realise that for the past few days he has been doing nothing but foolish things. He got into everyone's game: Gungun, BP, Akriti, Maya, the K family!
He was angry, blinded, but no one explained to him that all these feelings that are eating away at him is none other than love, the feeling of ownership that he has towards Gungun, the feeling of having her only for himself, and so on.
This love has made him dumb... In this love he is like a child learning to walk, he took a step, he fell down, again he tries, but he fell down again, when he got up he didn't walk, no, he ran towards Gungun.
For me Anubav's love is like him, despite a bad start, he is "open", determined, and decisive.
I said it, I never wanted him to have married Akriti, I tell myself he needed "that" to open his eyes.
The father could have died, but I don't think Anubav would have "felt the urgency" of their bond had he not been "attached" to Akriti.
So I summarize, Anubav's love for Gungun is like a bulldozer, it destroys everything in its path, it razed everything. Logic, family, responsibility, what people think, what Gungun herself thinks. He goes straight ahead even if it means destroying everything in his path.
Anubav is faithful in his love, he has decided that it is Gungun so it will be Gungun!
It took a while, sorry, but I had a bit of trouble saying what I felt about this love. In the meantime the series was drifting so my inspiration was gone, but there you go, music_girl satisfied?
