Hello Hi to my IPKKND fan blog, Laad Governor & Sanka Devi

While I’ve been part of IPK Tumblr since the show was on-air in 2011-2, it wasn’t until last year that I was urged by the sweetest @laad-governess to have a proper IPK blog here, on Tumblr! My other fanblog is this one!

It’s also been brought to my attention that stalking this blog is extremely hard because none of the links are easily accessible. Thus this post, to assist anyone who might want to check in with what going on here;

Bit about Me:

When, I truly felt sorry for Arnav Singh Raizada.

Arnav Singh Raizada. A mere character from an indian T.V series which only ran for about 1 year and 9 months. I know, it's been 12 years, but I don't understand this love that I have felt for this series at all. Maybe, because, there's a connection that this series' characters create with their audience? Dunno.

Here's a moment, that lasts with me to this day. When I could see a naked Battle between Arnav Singh Raizada and ASR. Beautifully depicted, when he was suddenly made a host to Preeto's wedding.

HE WAS GUILTY

He was reminded of the day he married his wife. A day where all of her relationships were put on a test, when he became a Rakshas who ordered her to be his captive. The day about which her girl friends asked, and Khushi lied. She lied that she looked beautiful that day, she lied that her ornaments were pretty, she lied about her favourite coloured lehenga, she lied that her wedding was her most beautiful day.

Arnav didn't want to be reminded of his mercilessness. He didn't want to be the prosecutor that Khushi believes he is.

HE WAS REMINDED OF

Rummaging through his stuff, looking for his file in a scattered room. Wondering, if his crazy wife has kept it hidden somewhere. He looked at a drawer, a glittery sheet peeking out. "Pagal hai..." A slight smirk on his face, disappears when he sees a reality that he keeps at the back of his mind but, tends to forget. A slip on it says, to Khushi ji, with love from, Shyam.

Reminding him, that she doesn't feel for him, reminding him that she is a betrayal. A vile woman that he fell for. And still is a moth to her flame.

Khushi came inside the room. She asked him if he was going to come outside to meet everyone. But, like always, she became the fodder to his rage. "isse pehle mai kuch kru, dafa ho jao yaha se"

HE WAS ENRAGED

What was he gonna do? Belittle her? Insult her again? Or this time, he wanted to grab her tight to shout at her not caring if her family listens. Whatever it was, he was in no mood. He threw her out of her room.

It's always him that is entitled to a place to stay, it's Khushi who needs to get lost whether it's his room or even if it's her own room. That's how it works with ASR. He wasn't going to stay here. He was calling a car to go back.

Avoiding a scene in front of her mother, Khushi leaves, Arnav was packing up when he listens to the worries of the bride's mother. He was interested, interested in the pettiness of the family that Preeto was going to get married into.

Khushi was trying to appease the Classist Mama and Mami of the groom. Until Arnav agressively says "Khushi chup ho jao". Maybe, he didn't want Khushi to appease them? But, it gets countered when Arnav next says "Jao dusri ice cream leke ao" when groom's mama ji says "aap apni biwi ko samjhaye ki bado se kaise baat krte hai" Arnav replies "Koshish karunga" I don't know what to say about this. I think he didn't even try to protect his wife here, he had bigger plans after this. What do you guys think he was trying to do by telling Khushi to shutup?

Khushi was arguing with Arnav for his uncalled rude behaviour and compares him to their ungrateful guests.

HE WAS A HERO

Arnav tells the groom to man up. Fires him, tells him to stand up for his wife to be, in his ASR way of talking. The groom realised this and stands up for Preeto and her family. Arnav saved the day.

Everyone danced, including his wife. His now, ex employee invites him to dace, Arnav complies.

HE FOUND HIS WAY TO HIS WIFE

What will a man do if he found himself in a sea of strangers dancing? He would find his way to his wife. He watched Khushi dancing and found his refuge. Obviously, a husband will follow his wife if he was to avoid any awkwardness. Dancing by his wife could save him from bearing his awkwardness alone. His wife was his obvious partner. Someone gave him a slight push and he collided with his wife. A Rabba ve happens, eye lock happens but, this time. Khushi and Arnav both were complaining to each other. Conflict obvious in their eyes.

Khushi saw the groom talking to Arnav about how he made him realise that he should man up. Arnav talked sense to him, and Khushi was left wondering, Arnav doesn't practice what he preaches. Within a moment he fills her with love, and the next, hates her.

HE WAS GUILTY AGAIN

A mother is always worrying about her kids. Garima, wanted assurance from Khushi, that she is happy with her husband. Khushi makes up a lie. Lie about her happily ever after. Arnav, is wise, he takes care of her loved ones, he gets hurt when she is in pain, he never lets her do anything by herself, she gets whatever she wants without even asking, he was the best husband.

HE WAS SORRY

The events have been a roller coaster ride for Arnav. He was feeling sorry for Khushi because, he couldn't give her the best wedding, he was mad at his wife for betraying him, then he tried to save her family's face, then he felt sorry for her again because, he couldn't be the best husband.

Now, in the pale moonlight he was left with his turmoil. He was left with conflicting emotions. He was not being nice to her. Didn't he always feel that way? Being rude to her and regretting it after? Wasn't his wife his worst enemy? Then why was he feeling so much for today?

IN THIS LOVE, NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.

When he was Ranjha, he admitted, he admitted that, regardless of everything that she did, he couldn't help but love her.

He didn't want to love her, but, watching her cocoon inside her blanket because of cold, he turned off the AC. He layed besides her, looked at her innocent face lit by the moonlight. She was sleeping peacefully now. He put his hand in her. Held it lovingly as if saying "I am sorry Khushi". And slept watching her.

. . . . . . .

What's amazing about this episode is that, even after watching her worst possible avatar. He was capable of holding her on to himself. He was capable of loving someone, even if they have hurt him. He could not forgive her but, he could sure still want her. He was not someone, who could let go of his strong emotions so easily. His love was bigger than anything, any mistakes, any sins and any relationship. Just like he said during second marriage.

Mere pyar ko kisi suboot ki zaroorat nhi hai.

Or wakai mai nhi hai, haina?

Hi, hope you are doing well. I love your fanfictions and your take on the show....I know alot of people ask you this... but will you ever update footprint in the sand... I miss that story. Thanks

Hello,

I am doing alright. I will be updating Footprints on Sand soon. I do struggle with chronic disorders, and I have a pretty busy life as well. I also got COVID over the summer and recovering been quite rough.

Keeping myself alive, and reminding myself that I have free will is more of a priority than engaging with fandom spaces.

I absolutely miss doing the analysis posts and writing fanfics. I hope I am able to find myself back sooner than later. I'll be thankful to anyone who sticks around whenever the next update happens, however like I've stated multiple times before, I came back to IPKKND for myself and I started writing fics and doing episode analyses for myself.

I hope that's respected by the numerous messages and comments I've received. I promised to finish FOS and stick with that, but I cannot give you a specific timeline or updated schedule.

Thank you for checking in!

Hi Jalebi,

Hope you are doing good. So my question is, i have a certain understanding of where Arnav's and Anjali's characters differ from each other but what kind of characteristics you think that these siblings share?

Thanks for answering.

Hey Anon,

Both Anjali and Arnav don't take no from an answer. They are slightly elitist - Arnav's is apparent based on the comments he makes and Anjali's is more subtle. The fact that she keeps calling Khushi around even after her work is done, without even thinking the pressure it puts on Khushi to manage a job, do samaritarian work at the Raizadas and pay for all the bills at home!

Both the siblings are very stubborn. Arnav is the world for Anjali and vice versa. Both the siblings aren't above doing anything for getting what they want - be it Arnav's rash decisions or Anjali blackmailing Khushi to work at Shantivan.

Both the siblings have a very strong code of ethics. While their principle of life is different from each other, each sticks very strongly to their code of principles and ethics.

Both the siblings are gorgeous... sigh. Their names start with A's. They love their inner unit of family intensely, and they also love intensely (their forms of expressing that love is different but they love just as much).

If Arnav is the pillar of the family, then Anjali is the soul.

Best,

Jalebi

Arnav Singh Raizada MBTI Typing ISTJ

Arnav is all Introverted Sensing (Si) , he’s stuck in the past! His personality and mindset is influenced strongly from past events, any present occurrence is first processed and then referenced to what he’s already experienced, he recognises patterns of behaviours and relies on predictability (which isn’t always reliable as people are complex beings), these experiences shape his view on people (I.e he initially views Khushi as a money-hungry. saboteur who has lose morals ).

He ruminates intensely, analysing and brooding upon situations for long periods of time. He takes actions based on how he predicts a person is relying on his personal lived experience (Si-Te) so when he impulsively marries Khushi, it’s rooted from what he’s witnessed with his mother and he doesn’t want a repeat of events, not stopping to think that things might play out differently. A lighter show of his Si is when he uses it to try and win over Khushi, like when he begins to recreate their old moments and memories together! It’s also observed, that he likes to keep her momentos (like her anklet or pompom) which is very Si!.He remembers details about Khushi (her likes and dislikes) and he buys her personal gifts based on the knowledge he’s accumulated (she likes bangles so he buys her bangles, all the presents he buys her during her birthday are personal like the pearl necklace and Salman Khan poster, a little cute example is when he buys her channay because likes them etc). Once again , it’s highlighted that he doesn’t forget (and is hard to forgive) when it comes to other people’s past actions, he was one of the only people in the family to be disgusted and vocally against Shyam being allowed back into the home (Even moreso than Khushi who was a direct victim of Shyam!). He doesn’t trust Shyam not to try anything malicious again based on his past behaviour.

Arnav’s second function is Extroverted Thinking (Te), this is how he communicates to the world in direct, straightforward statements. Even when he questions, there’s a hidden command in his tone.His language is full of orders and demands ( “GET OUT! Shut up Khushi Kumari Gupta! …even his famous “what the…!”) He sees things for what they are it’s either black or white, right or wrong. A fact is a fact. He doesn’t further question or investigate when he sees Khushi and Shyam on the terrace, he accepts it as the brutal truth, a fact that his eyes and ears have witnessed (if he was an introverted thinker, he would have investigated or questioned this more) so he goes straight into reactionary behaviour, he comes up with a plan to marry Khushi and he implements it. When Khushi refuses to take their relationship further due to the lack of phere (a ceremonial Hindu marriage ritual) he picks her up and starts conducting the ritual there and then! A lot of his actions are like this ; there’s a crisis, here’s the soloution, problem solved. His Te shows through his work ethic, he’s the boss of a very successful fashion industry, he is methodical and organised and very good leader. His leadership qualities are very much present in his home life, as he is the patriarch of the Raizada family, his word is law and no one can go against him. Sure, they question and challenge him but at the end of the day it’s his way or the highway.

Arnav’s third function is Introverted Feeling (Fi), Arnav is intensely private about his emotions and inner turmoil, but his Fi start bleeding out when he realises how damaging his behaviour has been towards Khushi when she was under his employment; and then when he is rude to her, not knowing she’s also an orphan like himself, he is burdened with the need to apologise for his unjust behaviour. It’s his Fi that compels him to pay Khushi’s father’s hospital bill, to protect her and care for her, he has a strong moral code and sense of how he should be in his various relationships, for example he takes his role Khushi’s husband very seriously, he protects Khushi in public because that’s his duty as a husband regardless of the private conflict between him and his wife (but also because internally, he still deeply loves her) or when he stays at the Gupta house and he behaves accordingly as their son in law despite his differences with Khushi (his Fi shines during his stay there, another example being, when he stands up for Khushi’s friend at her wedding because he is against the discrimination and ridicule the in laws are inflicting, it’s against his personal values), his sense of duty and responsibility also extends itself into his relationship with his sister, Anjali, and the rest of his family, he is fiercely loyal and protective. He rarely says I love you especially in the beginning but his behaviour conveys his love, his actions reveal his heart. His Fi is more immature than Khushi’s , it’s one of his weaker functions but it beautifully develops and strengthens throughout the show.

Lastly, Arnav’s inferior function is Extroverted intuition (Ne) which is his spontaneity, his ability to see intuitive possibilities in his present environment and to pick up on things…Arnav isn’t the one who comes up with fun schemes and ideas, he’s more stuck in his routine and logic. He struggles being out of the box but this is something that draws him to Khushi, she’s full of Ne! It’s a quality that greatly charms and endears her to him. 💗

Enneagram: 8w9

Interestingly, Khushi and Arnav are complete opposites, each of their weaknesses is the other’s strength…Arnav lacks Ne, Khushi is overflowing with it (this is especially evident when they team up to set Payal and Akash up! Khushi is the one who comes up with the idea and Arnav implements it ..not without poking holes in the plan first, of course!) and Arnav is the voice of reason, he offers the practical and rational angle. Arnav’s realism (Si-Te) grounds Khushi’s idealism (Ne-Fi), they are complete mirrors to one another, each bringing a light to the other’s dark side.

Oooh and one last side note! I believe Arnav is stuck in a Si- Fi loop and his character development occurs when he finally gets out of it, which would be the pivotal moment during the remarriage, when he returns and finally steps out of his personal trauma.
