great observation 👍🏼
but this time I also found the manipulation part very well executed & convincing😎
afterall kuhu is managing everything at home since last 3 months, without any emotional support system, they clearly showed how much she misses Kunal & wishes he was here, and we havent seen any response from him yet, even Varsha has not been calling or checking on her
then we have the bada beta-bahu returning into the house & start calling the shots, and expecting her to take a backseat
and also their weird behaviour like coming with bday cake but leaving in the midst of cake-cutting, then organising the rishta-fix ceremony but again going out of the house in middle of the ceremony, so she & Meenu along with other family members are all confused as in whats happening & why is Mishti so sick & what is the actual sickness because their weird behaviour clearly indicates that its not simple BP low, feeling weakness kind of thing
its just that other than Meenu & Kuhu others dont care that much about all this right now since they are more focussed on Ketu's shaadi
IMO when she mentioned to Kunal 'kaash main tumhare paas aa sakti', 'tum yahan hote toh sab theek ho jata kyunki tumko pata hota kya karna hai', those sentences spoke a lot about how confused & vulnerable she is feeling
and given that Kuhu has always been shown to be protective of her family, (she hid her divorce from Varsha to not hurt her, she hid Kunal's dhokha from Rajvanshs because 'ab ye bhi meri family hai'), when Meenu asks her if she is willing to protect her family, she fell for it
so the justification of this plot is brilliant & the writers deserve to be applauded👏
