EastEnders star Aaron Thiara has teased an upcoming feud between the Panesar and Mitchell clans.
It all kicks off when Ravi is under the impression that Barney Mitchell (Lewis Bridgeman) has hurt his daughter Avani (Aaliyah James).
As viewers of the BBC soap know, Avani has grown closer to her 18 year old boyfriend Mason (Alex Draper) in recent weeks, and we recently saw him propose the idea of them taking a kiss to the next level.
When she asked Lily Slater (Lillia Turner) for advice, troublesome Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall) overheard and spilled to her mum Priya (Sophie Khan Levy).
Of course, she presumed that Barney was the mystery bloke pressuring her daughter for sex and charged over to No. 1.
In upcoming scenes, Avani continues to fuel the belief that the newbie Mitchell is her new boyfriend, but things soon take a dark turn.

‘At the start of the week we see that Ravi is picking up from Avani’s behaviour, and also with Nugget, that there is something not quite right’ Aaron told us.
‘Ravi is pretty street smart so his instincts immediately make him think it’s something else.’
Priya convinces him to ease off, but Avani soon appears in the Square with a busted lip that she acquired during an altercation with Mason.
Suddenly, Ravi sees red and presumes that Barney must be the one responsible.
‘His initial reaction is complete and utter heartbreak that his daughter is hurt and his number one priority is to comfort her, but because of the character that Ravi is we know all hell is going to break loose’ Aaron continued.
‘His main drive is to get Barney to confess.
‘Obviously Barney is telling the truth, but this infuriates Ravi even more as he thinks he is lying, so as the situation unfolds, Ravi just gets further and further into this spectacle of interrogation.’
When Barney’s dad Teddy finds out about his threatening behaviour, a fight breaks out between the two men and the police arrive.
Is this the start of a lethal battle between the two families?
‘Ravi is the type of character who forgives but never forgets’ teased Aaron.
‘This isn’t the end of it.’
