One little correction, Baha never wanted to start two timing. In fact, though she was studying in Kolkata , she left home multiple times to return to her village Palasbani, so that Moon's marriage is not broken. Her only fault was that she loved Moon above all and more than Archie. Can we blame her for that ?? We are so used to seeing women pitted against each other in tv shows that its almost jarring to women actually standing by each other and supporting rather than competing over some man.
The moment she suspected Archie is falling for her , she avoided him at all cost , but it only added petrol to the fire of Archie's passion. Later after he confessed his love she flatly refused and gave him a piece of his mind , telling him he should have thought about this before his marriage with Moon. If Archie had stepped back , it would've ended there. But he refused to back down and started chasing her actively . Each time she left , he brought her back . At last he told her I'm going to divorce whether or not you want me. I love only you , and you're my only wife. Moon and my marriage is illegal and I can't behave like a husband to her and I never loved her. So he decided to tell Moon the entire truth and file divorce. Baha fell at his feet and begged him not to do this with Moon at any cost. She said she will disappear for good if he leaves Moon and he won't be able to find her ever again. Archie agreed to keep the secret but under a condition that Baha must always be with him and give him all his rights.
Baha was right in thinking that Moon can't deal with the truth maturely. The moment she found out Archie loves Baha she left the house and tried to kill herself. So what choice did Baha had ?? If she knew Moon would be mature enough to deal with the truth , she would never have agreed to keep the secret . Keeping the secret was costing her and only her from day 1 but she was prepared to pay the price for her sister's happiness , to sacrifice all her rights and happiness and love , which was only hers as she was the first wife.
Blame Moon for not being able to handle the truth . I admit she would be expected to be devastated but suicide ?? That's arm twisting others to bend to your will.
