Nice post Shanti. Ram isrefusing to accept that his bro is not all that innocent he looks. Deep in heart he knows Sid's nature; but to accept that infront of another person(even if its family member) dosent come easily.
He conveniently ignored this and wanted a scapegoat and that was Vikram. But in heart of hearts he knows Vikram is innocent.
Sooner or later Sid will get bold once again and this time he wont be lucky to escape.
After all its Sid who is paraya and Vikram who is apna, for RAM. Aakir dost, dost hai; kahin bhi aur kaise bhi.
