In fact - due to the way they keep showing Arshi just gaslighting everyone around but the scene is so pathetically placed with none of the evils even showing a modicum of that “ wow you are so smooth darling” it’s just never clear as a PIV what the writer wishes to push -
Mimi’s recent reinforcements however late show some balance as also Minu’s crisp repartee but since the narrative will just wail about Arshi all the time on the one hand and PRINIPALLY NO MOVEMENT FROM J’s stance of Didiya Sukhi samsaara - the whole story is at an impasse ; I would have added Ani not being able to actually divorce Arshi but THAT is not useful in face of J’s moral Q FRONT AND CENTRE. Either J’s hypocrisy has to come through at some stage or Ani has to fall ill
Yeah, there will never be any principle movement...we have mostly resigned ourselves to that
The way Didi openly gets away with lying and gaslighting everyone and how they all so quickly forget what she was saying/doing just a scene back
....makes it very clear that makers intend to keep other characters weak and dumb without countering her and exposing her true nature much.
Literally from one scene to the next, Didi flips a 100 times about whether she wants to stay with Ani to punish him or she is some suffering wife who has the right to demand her estranged husband's attention
......she's also flipped a 100 times about whether she wants to manage her career without giving any explanations to Ani or if she expects him to support her in preparing for her dance program 

Makers clearly expect audience to have convenient amnesia for all of Didi's flips and bakwaas but it's pretty hard to sell at this point....lol
As for Runak, unka toh kuch nahin ho paana
.....even Ani falling ill will just be for a temporary lollipop before Jhanak reverts to Didi bhakti for whatever reason.....lol
Ani managing to divorce Arshi also won't change anything if narrative is so committed to constantly doing a volte face on Arshi's actions and showing characters quickly forgetting what she says and does....lol
