I really wonder how could smoking beedi raise doubt about Barkat being fake?
Even Aaliya knows that she was brought up by Mir Khan who did not think of her as his own daughter. So even if she developed some bad habits, instead of cautioning her he would have encouraged, considering this as revenge against Osmaan Abdullah.
Certainly this will alert Aaliya about her upbringing and she can keep an eye on Barkat.
As for doubt of being fake is concerned, seeds were laid when she over-heard her bhabis wondering if finding Barkat was a trap?
So alot more detail is under-cover as of now. Let's see how much we get to see next week.
