Exactly! They both know each other very well thus the reason why she accepted the punishment because she knows he will not accept her hand so easily due to the circumstances.
She knows he does believe her and she also knows how much he truly needs her in his life despite whatever he says to the world. She has seen his truth and he has seen hers, she is doing all this to make him remember that she is still his Bondita, the one who had given her entire life in his hands and will follow him blindly to the ends of the earth.
She only accepted all these punishments for Anirudh, she isn't doing this for the families not the enmity, she is only going through it for him to bring him out of this prison he has built for himself.
She has found the key to open the gate but she cannot pull him out unless he makes up his own mind to come out of this jail.
The only way to do that is to remind him what was his purpose, what was the life he wanted to achieve 8 years ago, the man he still is if he just removed these layers that have been forced upon him.
This entire Sanyasini track to bring forth the man who ALWAYS stood against injustice done towards woman and the illogical, backward and cruel traditions of society.
Aaj ke episode me hi pata chalta hai when he is so aghast by the entire display of ritual, he cannot accept any of this but he is being forced by his family to shut up due to this enmity.
It won't go on for long though, Ani will never be able to watch such things, he managed to stay away from it for 8 years and just focused on this dushmani (uske beech beech me bhi be never allowed anyone to disrespect women) but now, he is going to get a reminded that he came back to India for a purpose and he has lost his way due to this dushmani.
Bon is just pushing him to his limits to make him understand his silence will only enable more of such things and this isn't him, that's why she asked him to give the sanyasi saree and reminded him she wanted to get the robe from his hands too.
This track is more about Anirudh than it is about Bondita. He is not a man who is silenced by circumstances or family, he will always say what he feels strongly without fear.
Ani finally accepting the truth to the world will break him free from his prison.
Well said... Bon's intentions behind goading Ani are extremely noble. But Ani feels angry and betrayed at her accepting all these as well. After all, he was the one who told her that no one is worth becoming a doormat for, and that is what he is seeing happening. He is aghast at the rituals, but he also wants Bon to stand up for herself against them.
