You have written that it basically does not make sense that Sai would be falling in love with her husband, since she clearly rejected his gesture. But, I wanted to flesh out my thoughts a little more regarding this. It also relates to your point about Sai's inner monologue about the ring being for Pakhi if it was one of a husband-wife's love.
I think that there is a lot to be Sai about the numerous times that she has said she does not understand Virat. This is because she can see that he is treating her more than just a zimidari. His actions are showing her just how deeply he cares for her... and not just in this birthday track. But, in the back of her mind, is the vaada. So, every time she starts to acknowledge the reality of this relationship, she backtracks, thinking that it cannot be real...that she must be making stuff up...thinking wrongly. I might be in the minority here, but when she asked Virat about the ring today, it is almost as if she wanted him to say that it was between a husband and a wife...and the reason I think this was her reaction afterwards. She scolded herself, saying she was dumb for thinking otherwise. Because, a part of her did think otherwise. This was the same thing that happened during the college-fest fight. You could see the desperation in her eyes when she asked Virat what he is to her. This is the tragedy of the point they are at today...they both are going in circles. Virat is unable to understand that what Sai needs is not a confession, but an assurance in words that this marriage is real so that she can give herself permission to accept her own feelings and his. And upon seeing Sai's confusion, which is not able to clearly state, he gets scared of losing her, so decides to take the easy way out instead.
