Once again Arshi going through a TEST OF TRUST?

Arranged marriage was an age-old story that Khushi, the youngest of the infamous Gupta family, who revolutionized and dominated the trading market for generations, knew well. For it was the only thing she heard growing up. But that neither prepared her nor comforted her as she got ready that morning. It was an important day, a day where she would trade her surname for a new one, her silence for a new chance, her respect for a new hope, her life for another. It was a day of contracts, both new and old. As she hid behind the traditional red shawl, knowing that the whole world would be watching her, waiting to pounce, she wondered why her mother never told her about any of the good marriages. The ones that worked out. The ones that had hope. The ones that had love. Probably because they don't exist, Khushi thought to herself. Only, destiny had believed otherwise. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a stand alone story that has no connection with the original show, Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon, except for the names of the lead characters.

This one just lives her life to fullest as she was meant to. A Happy Butterfly Arnav starts his journey as a father in a completely hostile environment, trying to become a husband BUT the problem is - His wife has already learnt how to survive without one.

What if Arnav didn't see that scene on the terrace? What if Khushi gets on the car meant for Anjali ? What if Arshi's love story continued to bloom , not being ruthlessly cut off by ASR' s misunderstanding? I had loved those small romantic moments during the pre wedding rituals , and I would love to recreate what it would've had been if the terrace scene wasn't seen by Arnav !
