The couple had an argument while Savita was breaking her fast in the evening. Although the situation appeared to calm down, Savita later prepared a meal of macaroni for Shailesh, allegedly lacing it with poison. Unaware of the danger, Shailesh consumed the meal, after which his health rapidly deteriorated. Savita then fled under the pretext of visiting a neighbour.
