Priya’s lack of self-confidence
Priya hasn’t been herself ever since she suffered third-degree burns from a maze fire caused by serial killer, Meena Jutla.
After struggling to cope with her physical appearance as a result of her burns, and undergoing skin grafts, Priya has struggled with her self-confidence.
It took Priya a long time to look at herself in the mirror, immediately covering up her scars and resorting to wearing baggy clothing from that point on.
Previously, those around her have tried to support her in gaining the strength to uncover her scars but their attempts failed.
The thought of showing her scars and becoming vulnerable was something she couldn’t deal with emotionally, also sparking the return of her eating disorder.
In scenes earlier this year, viewers saw Priya take it out on a journalist who was photographing the wedding planner.
When asked to remove her jacket, the journalist was asked to leave, causing Priya much distress at the thought of having her scars photographed.
What helped change Priya’s mind about uncovering her burn scars?
Priya’s promise
Priya recently opened up to Marlon about her struggles after becoming upset over a photo of herself pre-injury.
She wanted to be the smiling and happy woman she used to be.
Marlon understood her pain and explained that he felt similar seeing photos of himself before his stroke.
Letting an emotional Priya in on his secret, Marlon let her know his wishes to learn how to walk again for the wedding.
He wanted Priya at the wedding but there would be “one rule… no jacket.”
Priya accepted the offer.
