Absolutely, we all have much much more respect for Gopi today. It wasn't just the face that she stood up to Rashi, it was also a coming to an understanding after her talk with Baa about Ramayan. She realized that protecting Rashi or lying for her has taken its toll on the family. She also understood that things are not going to change and it is time to make things happen. And she is a girl with a mission...
In the past she always either put it off as Rashi's innocent mistakes or even thought Rashiben doesn't know how to do this work so I will do it and so on. She covered for Rashi even with the mangos. But today was the final straw. The fact that she saw her Rashiben's true nature and is now not going to let her create a rift in the family. Gopi is not going to allow Rashi to become Manthara and Hetal to be like Kaikeyi. She is going to stop it before it goes any further.
She had to let Rashi know what she knows...it may seem like it is better to let Rashi get caught red handed, but for Gopi she is still giving her sister a chance to improve herself. That is not going to happen any time soon. So she has taken a decision and told Rashi she will no longer answer to anyone...Rashi will have to do it. What is Rashi going to do now...Only time will tell. But it is fair to say she was warned and it is time for her to beware of more than one fighter for justice It is Gopi, Kokila and Khanaji against evil...I think they got it covered.
We are all very proud of you Gopi. You handled Rashiben with such class. You told her to face facts and yet at the same time you stood your ground against her tongue lashing. You did not let her words bother you. Keep up the good work and thwart all of Rashi's kalakaries. We are all rooting for you 👏
