i think it's a plan to get gauri to that room (the one which palak is referring to) there will be shiv there.....and he will try and depict it as if he and gauri are having an affair or something like that...therefore shahank will not marry gauri...but then the tables will turn on shiv because mahen will make shiv and gauri marry each other.....(which i'm not sure how this will occur...because mahen can't make shiv do anything, however the prospect of making gauri's life hell may make shiv marry gauri.
does anyone if it's true that after shiv and guari marry each they will continue an extra marital affair (i can't picture gauri doing this...shiv, yes! until for some reason he and gauri consummate a marriage....) this part then seems similar to Jai and bani from Kasam SE - and I"m okay with that because jai and bani have a great love story....
