Anjali and Ram, for their part continue their life together and build their new family
Personally Dhadkan is a romantic movie that really touched me
What I particularly liked was that the film doesn’t portray love from just one perspective At first you feel the love between Anjali and Dev, but when Ram enters her life the story gradually becomes one of trust respect and a love that grows over time
Dev’s return several years later was the part that interested me the most, because he thought he could easily win Anjali back but he discovers that her heart now belongs to someone else.
I also really liked Ram, because even when his life starts to fall apart he always tries to handle the situation calmly
