Well, the education track was conceived by the CVs
It was beautifully enacted by Gia
Now Gia is out of all contracts with SP and PH... if they had posted Gia's pictures in their articles referring her as Gopi Vahu... there is every possibility for the Actor in Question to SUE the Channel LEGALLY... for using her picture in spite of her not having any contract with the channel, at the point the article was released..
so using Gia's picture is legally not possible.. otherwise why would they go ahead put up all the work in photoshop and edit her pictures with Dev's
the words referred are gopi's character, as you said .. those words might be Gia's .. i am not sure though.. who ever said those words.. they said those words from Gopi's perspective and on behalf of Gopi's character...
please yaar... i am still waiting for my chappal and i am craving for IHOP omlete😉
