IMO, ever since Kavya entered Shah house she realized that being husband and wife gives a couple a whole another level of acceptance from society and rights over each other.
She saw that Anupama got to sit in pujas with Vanraj, she got the respect and love from the family. Earlier in her short visits she had only been the center of attention of the family.
She saw that Vanraj loved the food cooked by Anupama, and she got jealous of even the fake love and attention that Vanraj gave to Anupama.
All this led her to think that if she marries Vanraj, she would ask him for all. these "wife" rights even if she is the second one and then she would have both the love and the rights over Vanraj. Its her obsession of replacing Anupama in all the ways that she could.
Exactly! Kavya can’t brook the thought of Anupama getting any importance at all. She saw Anupama getting chewed out by all and was ready to stand in for Anupama at Paakhi’s school and as Toshu’s mom when Rakhi came visiting the first time around. But now she has realized that Anupama does command some position at home and Kavya, jealous freak that she is, can’t stand even that little bit of attention and wants to snatch it away.
