I think the only "payoff" might be that Ishwari got a glimpse of what exactly will happen to Dev without Sona. The sad thing being, in times of distress Sona chose Dev over her family while Dev chose his mom over Sona.
I do think if Dev had actually grown a backbone and said no, I'm going to be with her I don't care about mom's opinion it would have been much more impactful.
Sona was right when she said that the only reason he was here ready to be with her was because his mom said yes. He would leave her otherwise.
It's not good payoff lol but I think the Dev track proved to Ishwari that while she will always be top priority for her son he won't be himself without Sona.
And it was a good hint about what would happen when they seperated for 7 years.
I am 100% certain that if Sona had lived in Delhi after their seperation Dev would stalk her the same way.
I think one of my dream episodes will be the aftermath. The exact next day after Dev wakes up from his drunken stupor and realises Sona really went away. I know we saw a small scene later but I want Dev's perspective of the next day!
Sorry I went very off topic 🙈
