we know that Ahilya's friend, renu, will reside in the palace, much to Ahilya's happiness...today, Malharao did a good job of defending renu from her illogical grandmother & people...even that priest got his response in regards to abiding by the societal norms...rajesh sir is doing a fantastic job portraying malharao holkar ...I personally didn't like Ahilya's mother begging for khanderao for her daughter's happiness & simultaneously feeling that Ahilya's actions are indigestible to witness...I guess, the way the societal norms were set back in the day, people wanted to subconsciously play safe, now that we reflect back into the history...it is a lesson learnt from the past mistakes to ensure that such mistakes aren't continued...
