Chapter 1: Cheat!

1. Why was Ram surprised to see Smita?

Ram is so surprised when he sees Smita for the first time because he was being tortured and he hadn't asked for lawyer because he couldn't afford it.

2. In your opinion, who sent Smita? How did she know about his arrest?

I believe that nobody sent Smita there, but she went there on her own because she wanted to help her old friend. She probably heard about the TV show and when she saw that Ram was the contestant, she was smart enough to think that nobody will believe that he knew all the answers without cheating. She already knew a little bit of Ram's difficult life, so she trusted him and went to the place where he was arrested to help him.
