Disagree. It happened close to characterization as far as I understand. Kamini's reaction might have been similar to Gayathri's and Vikram's when they found out Sudha was pregnant with Narottam. They must have thought the rich heir was seduced by a greedy woman. Who knows what they did exactly to land Sudha in the mental hospital ? They treat Narottam like dirt because he is her son and they do not consider him Baldev's son, more his mistake. They cheated Satrupa because she was acceptable and married her off to their son to get a legal heir. Why would anyone expect such people to speak up in the case of Poonam. She is a servant.
If Vatsalya had been alive and Poonam and he had fallen in love do you think they would have accepted them ? Poonam would probably be the next one in the mental hospital.Anami is different. She is someone for whom a servant is a person and an equal created in the image of God. So she respects people more than status. That is why she bent to take out the thorn in the man's leg even though she is the princess of LM. It takes humility and that is why she was able to see the statue start to fall when she was literally on the ground. The people of LM always look ahead or up, never down. Anami does and therefore she will have a loyalty from people that comes from a genuine place not because they are employees. It may even be the reason that makes Narottam act on her behalf eventually and save her from Sudha.So while I get your point and do agree Gayathri should have spoken up, they seem like class status people to whom servants and people lower than them are for their use and possibly throw.

Anami stood up for her friend, her companion. Vikram does care about his house staff but not over his reputation.Vikram speaking out would have been inconsistent with his character sketch,he's too bothered about family name, reputation. Such people like to keep issues like this undercover. Why do you think he was relieved and smiled when Satrupa said let's end it here. Fact is the patriarchal society cares more for their name than living with integrity. It's more talk and little to no action.
Having said that I loved the episode. Yes the men didn't speak up but what really made me happy was that the women stood up against their own family member and called her out on her vile comments, Harry's actions were deplorable but Kamini's justification for the same was atrocious. She's the voice of the majority of women who encourage men to be their chauvinistic self. If more women like Anami and Satrupa stood up our society will definitely change.
