That could very well be the case.
I'm personally loving the way they are revealing things. As someone who never watched the first two seasons, I had no idea the Dr. Rahul Vardaan is talking to is Dr. Juhi's husband and it looks like he's plotting against Sanjivani. Great stuff to go off of once he enters. And now they just revealed that Dr.Shashank, a very highly regarded character, believes that Ishani's parents were innocent. The fact that it came through him holds a special weight to it and we will probably see that being developed in the future as well.
I like that they're giving subtle hints at future plot angles like this because when the story progresses, conflicts and people won't just be falling from the sky for the sake of keeping the show going. They're developing enough to keep them going sufficiently for as long as they do.
