Anyone has thoughts on what Adi thinks when he says - if his family knows from someone else - everything will bikarjafy.
So he has to either spill the beans or keep the secret. He seems to suggest - they need to tell the family soon - ok so why does he not plan for the best way to do it - after considering all options. Repeating it - is no help.
Things he can expect after breaking the news
1. Malini's reaction to his news
- another health issue - is this a dealbreaker - in which case - he really cannot reveal the truth now so stop speaking abt it
-she may understand and forgive him after a while - after all he is saying it was a mistake - waiting further will make the situation worse
2. Family will be upset with them
- May ask Imlie to leave the house - inconsistent with their actions to date but they will react to this - waiting is going to make the situation worse.
-May suggest educating her and setting her up for an independent life - not a bad option
3. PG folks
-Satyakam's family may harm Adi - this will happen regardless of when the news comes out. Waiting to spill the beans will make it worse.
So the way I see this - 2 reasons why Adi may not want to spill the beans right away - Malini's health or worry about Imlie facing the brunt of the situation. It seems like the former is no longer a concern with all the risks he's taking...if its the latter he is worried about...it is not going to get better with time - in fact with time these things will get worse and speaking the truth may free Imli to start her life. So why doesnt he just tell the family and put an end to all of this? If Imlie is asked to leave the house - its sad but it will happen either now or 5 years from now - earlier the better - he himself acknowledged it will be hard for imli to forfeit these relationships - but its par for the course - he is adult enough to set her up in a hostel somewhere and take responsibility for her. Which he should want for her right? He does not accept any love for Imli - so why does he seem to want to keep her in his house as a maid. What am I missing here? What is he waiting for?
Go ahead - spill the beans!
