I don't understand this whitewash plan at all.
1. Ram has a bad reputation(?).
2. Ram gets accused of misbehaving with the Minister's wife (who came on to him).
3. Marrying Heera or reconciling with his estranged wife achieves what, exactly? If I read of something like that, I would definitely think it was a PR stunt.
How does marrying someone or getting back with an ex PROVE somebody to be a person not capable of having done whatever he's accused of? In fact, how does being a "family man" absolve you of fooling around? Okay, he was single and free to mingle, having got a divorce in the Court of LawDiesEveryday, but a "bad reputation" can't be retrospectively fixed by some silly bandaid. Not in this day and age. Realistically, 10 Angiras would pop up to tell their stories on national television.
And God, back in that mausoleum, yuck. I want to slap Priya.
