Today's episode, albeit avneil romance free, was quite interesting, as it made me question a lot of things. For one, I'm starting to think due to the precap with at first shweta inviting neil to ganesha chaturti through avni, then dd saying that neil doesn't celebrate GC (most likely to do with juhi's death), and then shweta saying to riya in the precap to do things during GC that will remind neil of juhi, that shweta hasn't actually planted this juhi, but her plan was only to make neil remember his love for juhi again through ganesh chaturti, and considering dd said neil doesn't celebrate it, shweta must already know that so that's why she must have given the invitation through avni intentionally, thinking that neil would not refuse to come if avni wanted to. I think juhi must have never died and must have gone missing and taken by guru maa/ raghu pandit, that's why juhi is with guru maa and scared of her.
So I think shweta's plan was to only make neil remember juhi again, and to make avni more insecure, because shweta knows neil hasn't told avni about juhi, so I think she only planned to create a rift between neil and avni using neil's past love for juhi, but juhi is alive and even shweta doesn't know it. The actress playing juhi said her character will be positive. Now that avni has invited juhi to GC, and shweta on the other side saying they need to do things at the GC to make neil remember juhi, it seems even shweta will be in for a shock to see that juhi herself will turn up there alive, and she won't expect it.
Leaving that aside, they are now slowly bringing back avni's case 123 past, and I have a feeling that once this juhi track is over, through which avneil will confess finally, the case 123 truth will come out to neil and the family. They have accepted avni despite her najaayaz reality, but because it was not her fault, but how is avni going to explain her truth about being a high-profile thief? That was nobody but avni's own choice and fault, so how is avni going to get forgiveness this time? This will be the biggest truth bomb yet, and one where obviously even neil will not support her. this will be the ultimate roadblock in their relationship that they will have experienced till date, because I know for once that this track will bring to the fore Neil's loyalty and honesty towards his duty as a police officer and upholder of the law, which he has been shown as since the introduction of his character, as now it will be shown to conflict with his love and relationship with avni, because I'm pretty sure the case 123 case is till ongoing despite not being mentioned anymore by neil.
