So there is a confusion in regards to what RP said about juhi faking love for vidyut to escape from RM and when she faked love. Some think the convo meant that juhi was already in RM before meeting neil, and faked love for vidyuth, escaped RM by making vidyuth a fool, and then met neil and lied about her identity as being juhi and her name is actually meher. Then some people are saying that she faked love for vidyuth to escape from RM after her staged death. The latter option makes complete sense in explaining mishti's birth.
What I did is I went back and watched the episode to quote everything that was said about juhi's past by the pandit's:
Convo in the car... :
- RP to VR: Tumse pyaar ka naatak kiya, taake woh rang mahal se ud kar, uss neil ke baahon mein chali jaayein. (Translate: She feigned love for you so that she could fly away from Rang Mahal and run into the arms of that Neil.) The rest of the convo in the car gave zero details about juhi's past whatsoever.
-They keep calling juhi as meher as usual, but nowhere did they mention that juhi lied about her name to neil, or that her real name is meher. Also during the convo in the condo when vidyuth expresses his suspicions about avni giving up so easily, he called her juhi and not meher, but whether that is a blooper or not we don't know because back when the khanna's didn't know ananya was actually avni, they now and then said avni.
So overall, I think everybody misinterpreted the RP-VR convo about juhi, and that they nowhere mentioned that her name is actually meher and that she lied to neil about her name or background, and RP actually said that juhi faked love for VR so that she could escape rang mahal to got back to neil. So we all misunderstood that juhi is actually meher and already knew the pandit's before meeting neil.
