However, we are so glad that he did make it in the end and all others in the cast too.
Because frankly speaking Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon would not have been the same without Arnav, Khushi, Shyam, Anjali Di, Payal, Akash, Bua ji, Mami ji, Nani Ma, Ma, Babuji, Lavanya Kashyap, Nand Kishore, Aarav, Sheetal and even Bubbly.
