I know many in this forums are irritated and zonked with Ishita's behaviour regarding Adi and his well-being, but we must remember CVs are thinking of the long run.
I admit today's OLV was too much to digest, but isn't Ishita being the antidote to Shagun's poison?
If Ishita was insecure about her position in Raman's life, if she had even an iota of doubt, she wouldn't let Shagun stay in the house. But Raman and Ishita both know that they love each other. On top of that, Raman just renewed their marriage vows. She even knows that he wishes she were his childrens' real mom rather than Shagun. Isn't that like the highest of praise for her? And I'm sure that she didn't like the fact that those earrings belonged to Shagun before they came to her. For however small a time, Shagun was his wife and those earrings might feel cursed for her. She wore them because he wanted her to. She lived that moment and she has that memory with her forever. Ishita has what she wanted from those earrings, her husband's love exclusively for her. Shagun can keep the earrings. Ishita has always been unmaterialistic. Ishita has her prize with her, she is giving Shagun her consolation. And Shagun the fool is very happy with it. Hasn't it always been so, even with Ashok?
When she let Shagun take her place in the family picture Adi was happy to take a picture with both his mom and dad... but will he not also think that if Ishita aunty is as bad as his mom says she is, would she let his mom take her place when his mom claims that his dad has completely forgotten about them because of Ishita? Didn't Ishita just negate everything Shagun told Adi about Raman, their anniversary and those earrings? I don't know how it will proceed but it should put at least a dent in the boy's hatred for Ishita.
Also if Ishita was still in that picture, it would be incomplete anyway... where is Ruhi in that? She is the most important part of their life. I bet that is when Ishita will be in the complete family picture, with both their children.
Raman's words have always come true in this series... its like he is the fortune teller. When the custody case was going on, he himself told Shagun that she and her boyfriend would come to leave his daughter home. He always talks of him and Ishita being happily married with two children. And lets not forget, he has told Shagun that his son will come to him on his own. That his son will one day leave her on his own without him doing anything. If he doesn't do anything then who will? It has to be Ishita.
I'm sure Ishita will face quiet a few moments like this and she might even have a big final fall but she will rise up again. She will always have everything in the end. Because at the end of the day Ishita has everyone with her and Shagun is all alone. Even when she was Raman's wife she had alienated the whole family from her.
Shagun is not able to go into the heart of any matter because she herself is shallow. She thinks only about herself and assumes that everything has to go her way. She is forgetting that removing Ishita from Bhalla house is not as simple as stopping her from being Raman's wife and taking her place. Because Ishita is not a tree that she can uproot. The Bhallas are the trees and she is the water that gives them life. Without Ishita, there is no family.
Please feel free to comment as to what you think.

Just Putting in an answer to a comment that most are thinking on the lines of... about giving Shagun and Adi false hopes of getting back together with Raman.
"Agreed. Lets assume that Ishita is giving Shagun hopes of getting Raman back into her life. But isn't it a false hope? Will Raman ever go back to her? No.
As for giving Adi false hopes, Adi already knows that his father has his own family with Ishita. That Raman loves Ishita a lot. Part of it is what he saw with his own two eyes and part of it is what Shagun has fed into his brain to increase his insecurity regarding his position in Raman's life. All Adi wants is his dad, or just someone to care about him. Remember Adi's monologue. He says my dad is busy with his own family and my mom is still lost in Ashok, where will I go? Who will care for me?
We have to remember that if either of them tries to let go of the bond then the other one will hold on. When Raman tried to divorce Ishita, she hunted him down and dragged him back home. What do you think Raman will do when Ishita pulls such a stunt? He wont beg like he did with Shagun, he will demand her back, by hook or by crook. There has to be a reason as to why he has been repeating that he is never going to let go of her all the time these days.
All the drama happening now is Shagun's mistaken analysis of the situation and its result. She thinks that he is still the same person he was 7 years ago. She thinks that Raman still loves her deep down because of the children that they had together. What she doesn't realise is that he has had a complete change of not just his heart, but his mind as well. He had truly loved Shagun, and that type of betrayal changes you. Raman changed not only when Shagun left him, he changed when he fell in love with Ishita as well. Today even if Shagun tries to make a place in his life as the mother of his children, he has a better mother more then ready to love and raise his children.
Raman is doing everything now as per Ishita's wishes... letting Shagun stay, spending time with Adi, cutting the anniversary cake, giving her the earrings, everything is for Ishita, not for Adi. he is past that now. He said so himself yesterday... his world starts and ends with Ishita. And Raman takes it all literally. Ishita is happy doing all this... lets just wait and see what happens when she starts feeling sad."
