But Raman's case is too different form any of us, the normal parents have to deal with as we have our children with us and can love them as well as scold then as and when it is required. But Raman has been living away from his son for the last 6 years and had never had the opportunity to get close to him and love and being loved by him. He is starving to hear a simple word Papa from his son which looks like a mirage to him as his son is living with 2 cunning, selfish people who are using his son as against him. When his son was with him, he didn't had the time to shower his love as his wife was behind wealth and to get that he had to work day in and day out. And even before he could realize what is happening behind his back, his own boss had played his dirty trick and his money had attracted both his wife and son (they had spoiled his son with costly gifts which Raman could not afford then).
Now Raman has everything his son wanted then but he is unable to get his love and for that he feels himself responsible. With his blind love for his wife then, he could not save his son from falling to the trap of Ashok and now he can't see his son falling prey in the police custody just because of Shagun's imperfect upbringing. So in his weak moment, he has told his son that he will allow unhappiness to him but he knew the consequences.
he also knows that Ishita may forgive him if he tells her the truth but with that he will be risking his son's future. Before telling the things to Ishita, he wants to be assured that it was Adi who did the accident and not Shagun. Otherwise, if he go by her statement, she may change it in the last moment and if she blurts it out in court that it was Adi who did that, Adi will eventually will have to go to remand home and that atmosphere may turn him out to be an hard core criminal. So Raman may be trying to collect all the evidence and approach the court with his backup documents, so that Adi is not get a rigorous punishment.
