Recently binge watched the first 80 episodes again, and the re-opening of the case by Suman had me thinking:
Given that Daddu hates civilians so much, has been such a huge reason for the split between Malhotras and Tiwaris, and the fact that he quickly deduced and pointed the entire thing on Devraj, do you think he knew about the faulty vests from the other officer, and assumed that Vijay would break his friendship with Devraj over the same so allowed it to continue? I mean, he obviously did not want the vests to pass the testing and his son to die due the same, and thought the army would and should give the contract to someone else. But then post all that happened, maybe got a heart attack and died due to the guilt?
Would be mega-interesting if whenever they shift the focus from this jealousy track, they explore that Sumo, who has extended the case to frame Devraj finds out her Daddu also has a part to play in her dad's untimely death and then truly makes amends with Shravan..(would have suited better if BB was alive and they showed a confrontation, but some things just remain wishes)
