Re family pulling back - very possible. I mean which adult looks through another’s bag and throws its contents all over the floor? But I also feel Malini, after this incident, realizes the extent to which Aditya actually defends Imlie and tries other ways to get to her. And in the meantime Aditya and Imlie might actually end up unintentionally giving ammunition to Malini through someone in the family noticing them together? So she finally ends up getting to go back to her usual display of bechargi
I do think Malini will try to shift tactics for a bit after seeing how even attacking Imlie only made Adi surge to her defense more.
And yes, it's also possible that someone in the family may notice the vibes between Adi-Imlie and start to think that Malini's insecurity of her is justified...the person most likely to support Malini here is Rupi....it would be a return to the Rupi from the early days of the show, who was quite rude and misbehaved with her own family waale too. Tripathis mein bas ek hi insaan hai who has taken a walk down the dark side before toh they might try to align her with Malini on this.
Malini crossed a major line in this epi but I guess her full elitism and snobbery related to Imlie still won't register on the Tripathis for a while.....and she will continue to get the sympathy of "bechari wife" until the truth is revealed.....that is the loophole they may use in getting Rupi to sympathize with her.
If Nishant finds out, I don't see him blindly supporting Malini....he will know Adi and Imlie's side of the story and will approach the situation with that context.
