I don't know what exactly Vijay Deshmukh was thinking when he asked Raghav to do that foolish task...
I mean did he actually thought that his dumb task would humble "the Raghav Rao".
If the motto behind his stupidity was to threaten Raghav's pride then the man really needed to come up with something sensible because I don't remember Raghav looking more cavalier than he looked at that exact point.
If Pallavi hadn't interrupted and Raghav would have gone through with it .. Raghav's pride wouldn't have suffered an iota.
At that moment Vijay Deshmukh looked so miniscule in front of Raghav. Vijay Deshmukh thinking superficial arrogance and a fat purse being the reason for Raghav's pride is laughable. That man would have been proud and majestic in a gutter.
I was so glad to see Pallavi because Raghav, for the first time since I remember, was going to feel prioritised and cared for.. other than that I think hadn't she interrupted I can already see a dignified Raghav looking down at a conquered and ashamed Vijay Deshmukh in his his majestic aura.
I'd conclude saying that vijay Deshmukh's attempt to poison Raghav's spirit by demeaning him was a pathetic one ... And he should be grateful to Pallavi for saving him a lifetime of disgrace....
PS - Loved Amruta speaking up for Raghav... No wonder Raghav never saw "chota bindi" in her... Just a feather brained "Chipko ladki" too easily manipulated by her mother....
