Hello everyone, I'm back with a new episode analyzing Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon (IPKKND). In this episode A (dramebaaz.af) joins me (S) in discussing one of the most epic moments in IPK - the hospital hug! Equations change, stakes are higher and left us emotional. Also the scene that introduced the Sad Rabba Ve (can't believe we forgot to mention that).

On this episode of Iss Podcast Ko Kya Naam Doon, we discuss the first episode where Arnav and Khushi can sense each other - at the office! Reeling from Teej, these two episodes pack a punch!

On this episode of Iss Podcast Ko Kya Naam Doon, we discuss one of the best scenes of IPK - the resignation scene. Why was it the perfect scene? What is the beauty of a great story arc? How did it balance television expectations and cliche breaking storytelling?    We mostly fangirled over this episode, but also focused (perhaps a bit too much) on the what ifs if IPK continued with the characters and writing established here! We hope you like this episode too.
