Well Omiji,
On a lighter vein, I would have run away with Saras, ofcouse after exhausting all the gussa, and would have said hell with the BD family and society. There would be no story.
But I agree with Reemz here,
she is Kumud: the one who travels the unbeaten path. She has not decided to be docile so far, nor VC family asked her to be a doormat. She is doing what majority of us will not.
He is Saras, learning to follow her path: majority of us in his position, would have quit her place, unable to face.
He is travelling the tumultuous path, being an annoyance to her,
still not accept to each other that they are meant to be together as destiny.
