In book Raman was more mature and sensible. He never differentiated between Ruhi & Arjun. Even when Arjun showed his carelessness towards Ruhi Raman was hurt. Arjun was more inclined towards Shagun. He never tried to be good with Ishita. Even Ishita was disgusted with Arjun. He regularly poison Ruhi's mind against Ishita. I am in love with book's Raman. He was so perfect & sensitive.
Ishita's character in the book was so real. She was numb but determined to gain Ruhi's custody at any cost. She never tried to be an angel but she was the one who saved Ruhi from all trauma.
the most imp part of the book was the trauma that these two children gone through due to the divorce of their parents. Arjun became more introvert and hostel life made him more self centered. He was not concerned for his sister. When Raman told that after coming back from Shagun Ruhi was telling some piggy story & wetted her bed Arjun did not feel for her sister. From the beginning he did not like Ruhi much but after his parents separation he became more insensitive towards Ruhi. He was only in terms with Ruhi because he knew that his mother loves Ruhi.
Ruhi was the person most affected by the separation. First she has to move with Shagun. Then came back to Raman. She was a confused soul deprived of her mother's love & affection. She craved for it and that made her close to Ishita. My heart cried for Ruhi Ishita & Raman.
The most annoying character of custody was Shagun. That character has nothing. She was so self centered.She wanted to visit Ruhi at any cost She never understood what Ruhi has to go through when she comes back from her. She was the queen of her own world and has no concern for anybody except her happiness.
