For now, we know more about her than she knows about herself. She's a con woman, and she's doing a job. No questions asked. In her "profession", a conscience is nothing but a liability.
She may be heartbroken over Rehan, and isn't at all thinking of her Doppelganger or Aahil, but let's be honest. She grew up on the streets - a dog eat dog world. Each man for themselves, and all that.
She only knows this life. She's probably been alone for most of hers, and so she's accustomed to think of herself only. Horrible as it may seem to us as the viewers, that's probably the rationale behind her character, and the selfish way she's behaving.
Seeing Sunehri behave gaga over some ice and the promise of a million bucks always reminds me of a line from a movie I love, Madame Sousatzka. It was about a piano teacher, older English lady, and her student, a young, talented Indian boy - the son of Indian immigrants to England.
When the teacher made fun of his single mother for always behaving as though she had dollar signs in her eyes whenever money or the promise of wealth was discussed, the student's reply was one that has always always stuck with me.
"It's important to her, because she's never had any"
The same could be said of money, love or many other things.
Sunehri has none of these.
She had love for a while, but she lost it because of her natural habit of lying (Yes, she was about to tell Rehan the truth, but she waited too long).
Now she's being promised something else she's never had - money. And not just a small amount a common criminal and petty thief could gain.
This time, it's a professional's fee.
If only she actually thought about why she was being offered such a huge amount simply for standing in place for someone else...?
My goodness! This was such a ramble
