Things are already complicated for the Alahans in Coronation Street. Just as Dev and Bernie’s wedding plans start to take shape, someone arrives who could ruin everything. And no, Bernie isn’t prepared for this level of scrutiny.
Aadi and Bernie’s Risky Plan Takes Shape
Dev has been excited lately about the wedding, but behind his back, Aadi and Bernie have made some changes. Instead of spending Aunty Rani’s generous donation on the wedding, they’ve decided to use the money to pay off the corner shop’s business debts. They’ve kept Dev in the dark, planning a low-cost event while putting the rest of the money aside for the shop.
For a while, everything is going according to plan. Aunty Rani lives far away in India, and they didn’t think she would actually show up. But Dev’s excitement quickly turns to trouble when he casually mentions that Rani plans to attend the wedding. He is thrilled; Aunty Rani means a lot to him. Meanwhile, Bernie and Aadi are panicking. They know that if she arrives and starts asking questions, it won’t take long for their little money swap to be uncovered.
Aunty Rani Arrives in Coronation Street
Next week, Aunty Rani arrives in Weatherfield. Not only is she sharper than they expected, she’s also early. According to a Corrie insider, her arrival “throws a major spanner in Aadi and Bernie’s plan.” She has traveled all the way from India and is determined to see how every penny of her money has been spent. Dev rolls out the red carpet. He clearly wants to impress her and asks Aadi to be his best man, completely unaware of the guilt troubling his son.
Aadi tries to play along, but it’s hard when your secret is hanging by a thread. Bernie, feeling judged from the moment Rani looks at her, decides to fake a posh accent to seem more impressive. But Rani notices everything. The pressure gets on when Rani announces she’s creating a spreadsheet to track all the wedding expenses. At this point, Aadi and Bernie realize they are in serious trouble.
They’ve cut corners everywhere, and now they have someone with a calculator watching them. The idea of coming clean to Dev suddenly seems unavoidable, but they aren’t ready to give up just yet. With Rani settled in and paying close attention to every detail, Aadi and Bernie are scrambling to keep things under control. Bernie’s nerves are through the roof, and Aadi’s guilt keeps increasing.
Dev, on the other hand, is completely unaware for now. But if Rani digs any deeper, that won’t last long. Things are set to get chaotic, and it’s only a matter of time before someone breaks.
