have you seen ARUSHI CHAVVA ? we've heard through the grapevine that they're PROTEAN but also VINDICTIVE . when you think of them , you think of AN EASY SMILE AND HONEYED TONE , DISTRACTING FROM WHETHER WORDS SPOKEN ARE TRUE OR NOT ; DETERMINATION BRED FROM ADMIRATION ; GOLDEN JEWELRY CHIMING LIKE BELLS WITH EVERY MOVEMENT . people say she looks a lot like janhvi kapoor .

HEADCANONS

the youngest of seven . her family is not noble , though their abundance of wealth might prompt someone to think so . the chavvas own a sizeable amount of land in the south of the mughal empire , and her father is a successful merchant - turned - businessman as well .

is she vain and a little mean ? yes . but , like , look at her . i think she's allowed to be .

an avid dancer , though it's hard to say if her affinity for dance is from taking lessons from such a young age or a genuine interest . at this point ? it's probably both . arushi is most familiar with the court dances of the mughal and ottoman empires , though she also took the time to learn the popular dances of europe in anticipation of traveling with the sharmas to france .

WANTED CONNECTIONS

MENTOR(S) the dowager empress is her main teacher and role model , but i can see arushi latching onto other people to learn new skills , especially ones that help her improve her skills as a lady - in - waiting and spy .

FLIRTATIONSHIPS sometimes she flirts for fun , sometimes it's to help her empress , sometimes it's both . there are certain people she keeps in rotation , whether because she finds flustering them amusing , or particularly likes their banter .

EXES , FLINGS , & ONE - NIGHT STANDS arushi has never taken romantic relationships seriously , so any past entanglements have been just that to her — fun and spontaneous . perhaps she has an ex who's bitter about her lackadaisical attitude .

MARKS arushi's mission is to scout out potential allies for the mughal empire , as well as find evidence of inconsistencies with the empress . these are people she thinks can give her the most information , so she's trying to befriend them .

the usual fair ! anything and everything ! arushi's v outgoing and generally positive anyway ( except when she's being a mean girl ) , and loves new experiences because she hasn't had the chance to travel much .
