Everyone in the crowd criticized Rishi's actions; even Kajal was surprised. Aditya was really annoying to her, She didn't know what grudge Rishi had against him, but from their interactions, she knew that Rishi had been only good to her.
She thought Rishi is doing it because of her, but she shook her head, 'Why would he do that? Could it be because he likes me?'
'No, Kajal, it can't be; there might be a personal reason,' she thought in her mind as she saw Rishi beating Aditya, even though she had no interest in Aditya and disliked his presence but this amount of cruelty was too much; she was also thinking about the consequences of Rishi's actions.
The Tyagi clan was not some small clan, They might not be able to do anything inside the academy, but outside the academy, they could harm Rishi easily. Even inside the academy, they could use their connections to make things difficult for Rishi.
