Arnav’s sophisticated ex-girlfriend, Lavanya Kashyap, returns. Khushi pretends to help Lavanya win Arnav back, all while suppressing her own growing feelings. The "Hotel Room Confession" where Arnav screams, "Main tumse bahut pyaar karta hoon Khushi," is the turning point.
Barun Sobti and Sanaya Irani set the screen on fire. Their nuanced performances—from glaring to longing—are unmatched in Indian TV history.
The original series ran for two seasons under the same name, though the storyline was continuous.
In total, there are 187 episodes of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon. However, many streaming platforms and fan archives list them as 1-187 inclusive.
