If you look at this from Savvy's point of view: if she did commit suicide, imagine the agony that she has caused her family members by her action. In a way, it could be equivalent to the agony that Ranjan has caused, right? Guilty or not guilty. Ranjan is alive and doing his "penance" you could say. Savvy took the easy and cowardly way out, if she committed suicide. If you think this way, you see a very different Ranjan.
