hey! ok, so aparna and suchitra are the same person; aparna told anurag that her name was aparna, but to devu (debo), she was suchitra; shravan is, then, aparna/ suchitra's and devu's son. devu doesn't know where his son Shravan is b/c she is a horrible person, as u've seen, and she wanted to keep him under her control by emotionally telling him about their son . . . anurag initially doesn't believe him b/c devu was brought by aparna in front of anurag as, essentially, a psychopath lover who couldn't forget aparna and get on w/ life . . . so anu thought devu was trying to rouse anu against aparna so devu could himself get her . . . but, anu eventually believed him and put on padding, which is why his life was saved
