The big revelation we were all waiting for. What forced V to marry P?
Despite the fact that this was the most obvious reason, we still hoped it was something more convincing and something less predictable. Guess they are playing with our psychology. When we expect the the cliché, we get surprised by something way beyond out imagination. Now that the pattern is established, they have changed tactics.
Nothing much to talk about it, unless we want to read beyond what meets the eye. 
Sai and V are a team in crisis. It's funny how they can switch on and off from their present equation so easily. The way V held Sai's hand, was so natural. He didn't even realise..in fact it was nothing out of place for him. Vinayak is with them only to inform P about this. So that she makes her unwanted entry. 
The only part from Sai-V scenes is that for V, Sai is his wife. He is upset with her, but there is nothing that poses any doubts on her status .."In his MIND". The body language and non verbals says so.
I'm a lil confused on the sindoor dropping scene. Generally, such scenes imply that the husband's life is in danger. But, how they played out the scene, doesn't stitch it that ways. If we had not seen the promo with Savi's kidnapping and gunshot, the indication would be only about Sai's entry in V's life and P losing her place. Or P having no right over it. But it now has been puzzled. V getting shot and as the wife P's sindoor falls and she gets restless as she senses threat to V.
That is not a good feel, as that confirms P's status in a more divinely manner. 
Harini is my best bet right now. This will have to be a unique one. With practically no one on Sai's team, there has to be someone who speaks the naked truth...unabashed..without fear. She may be the spoilt one, and Sai will have to win her over. But for now Harini with be the one to speak without any bias...give reality checks. So initially she may not be in any team as such, but indirectly she will be supporting Sai with that "I speak my mind" attitude.
Flashbacks
A couple of things that I sense which strengthen my doubts on P staged it all. 
P suggests adoption, then the orphanage outs forward a condition that "only married couples" can adopt kids. Which is their rules over and above what the law says. Then the lady also puts pressure saying there is another couple who is inclined towards adopting Vinu. Strangely, she also says that people rarely adopt such kids who are specially abled. Too much coincidence? And P inactive participant, yet present everywhere, right from the start. Some divine intervention or P intervention?
So the family is mulling over how to tackle this, and Ninad is the one who suggests this proposal. Again something out of place wrt current dynamics. We didn't see much of Sai bashing during this time. In fact Ashwini was mindful of V's state and distress, she didn’t even think of P. Someone who is so insistent and continuously encouraging P and V to have a conjugal relationship, didn’t even think of the "Obvious" choice. P is aware how the family sees the prospective wife of V, what are the prerequisites. And she ensured she fit the bill, before she orchestrated the adoption plan. She couldn’t volunteer, but she made sure that she was their only choice. I may be wrong, but I also felt that though P initially refused the proposal in front of the family, but she was somewhere convincing V. Giving him that assurance it is right and it will go his way. So that he gives in
It looks like a well thought through strategy...which was broken down into elaborate steps. Being the reformed woman, and a considerate "Friend" to V. Then bringing in Vinu and adoption suggestion which led to marriage. With this she became V's wife legally. But she knows that for V to completely submit, she would need a force. The family. And hence, she started her next stage of pulling everyone in her favour. 
I would have thought that she didn’t have a role, and it is only after Sai's entry that she became evil. Proving our theory Sai is her trigger always. Now that she has everything, she will lose it when Sai returns to take back everything. But these flashbacks don't look so innocent.
PS - I so wish V doesn't get shot...only for that sindoor scene sake. I know the makers are trying to confuse with mixed indicators. But still. Jagtap will probably enter the scene tomorrow.
