One thing I didn't see people discuss about Chili-gate is how Aryan was internally in rage. There were tears shining in his eyes at Imlie's self-destructive behavior which Malini was enabling. And he gave it to Malini and stopped Imlie after he couldn't take it anymore.
By contrast, I couldn't help but notice that Aditya was not only pretending not to be bothered, he was actually very into his food and not bothered! If Aditya really loved her, that whole thing should have affected him too. CVs really messed up that edit or Gash wasn't playing it in a nuanced enough way. If it was intentional acting, then Aditya clearly doesn't love Imlie enough.
Rage.. yes but at same time kind of angry with Imlie too..
he dint even looked at her for few intial momemnts as if protesting.. i am not gonna talk to you cause you never understand what i am trying to explain you.
i wrote in detail on another post. have a look and see if you can relate to his feeling on that moment.

Abt Aditya.. it was intentional.. very much. i dint explain it then as no one questioned abt it but as you mentioned ill share why i thought so.
2 close ups.. contrasted by the way they both eatig/drinking.. classic way of showing Juxtaposition in their stance in that moment and life alike.
Imlie drinking water so peacefully (with eyes closed) that's given to her by Aryan..
symbolism he brings the best out of her... he shares his calmness with her after all the havoc (chillies) caused by T family. And she has accepted and already feeling better with him (calmness shared by him)
Adi eating that biryani with hands and not even spoon thats given to him by Malini..
symbolism Malinis brings out the worst in him.. She has turned him into not so human (read animal as they only worried abt hunger and thinks only abt food no offence to anyone its how i saw that particular moment) who is least bothered abt anyone else pain or suffering...
That was one tiny yet deep scene to reflect the change people beside Imlie and Adi brings out the best and worst in them respectively.
