I saw a few episodes of KD yesterday and the actress playing roopkatha (pakhi) was superb like her expression, her attitude screen presence etc was fantastic!

She was supposed to look charismatic, have a style, calm, composed.

Heard she got a lot of sympathy from audience.

Since I have seen the Tamil version, it’s just the same. But they have given extra screenspace to her in the sense added more scenes for her compared to the original. Yes the writers and directors have to do a better job at getting what they want from the actor.

In Tamil Pakhi actress is in full on negative mode. She is accepted has a villain earlier itself and Virat clearly shows her place unlike in Hindi.

And it also helps the audience, it’s played by an actress who always plays negative character in serial.

there will be a cringe worthy scene in future where kaku will tell Pakhi that samrat is not coming back and pakhi should get back with Virat and she will support her🤮

I am sure they won’t show such instances in Hindi because TRP aunties will leave the serial way before the online audience 😂😂

Sorry, it was a long post and I needed more time to be able to explain and answer and so couldn't reply sooner.

In other versions, Sai pushes Virat away and always maintains a distance with him, but it didn't make sense that when those ML were doing so much for her, she still kept considering it to be a deal and pushed him away.

I strongly think that our beloved creative head 😉 wants to reason Sai's behavior, want to have a solid reason for Sai to maintain distance from Virat. So if they show that Virat is pursuing the stupid idea of friendship between Sai and Pakhi and if Virat keeps talking good about Pakhi, Sai will have a strong reason to push him away.

Imagine, otherwise why would Sai not move close to him? Why would she talk about deal? She can get easily carried away with his care and affection. They wanted to maintain a friction, wanted a push factor and that is why I think they have introduced the stupid friendship drama and also have made Virat talking softly with Pakhi.

Don't you think so?

I feel he scolds Sai the way he currently is for many reasons. Justified or not, looks like it is happening naturally. In my opinion and if I understand Virat to some extent these are the reasons for his behavior towards Sai.

1. She is too young, so his age is playing a factor

2. Sai is his responsibility, so he thinks it is his duty to correct her and put some sense into her.

3. The responsibility factor also adds an onus on himself as a son of this family, so he should ensure that she doesn't make mistakes or disrespects his family members. Because as is he has married her and brought her to live in this house against their will, so he should ensure she stays in her limits and follows the rules of the house.

4. She is his wife, takes liberty and thinks he can take more liberty on her than anyone else.

All these 4 put together is what I feel is giving him a power, giving him the rights (which he thinks he has) to berate her, scold her, correct her, punish her and raise his voice too.

None of these are applicable for Pakhi and hence a thanda reply for her. Just a stare, raising eye brows; folding hands and challenging her; giving her a puzzled or a disgusting look and sometimes warning her or showing her mirror.

Makes sense, doesn't it? 😂😂

Having said the above 4 points, parents or guardian do take that liberty because the onus is on them. They are answerable for their children's behavior or the person's behavior.

And it is not just answerable, it is also about how they should be, it is their duty to imbibe good and right qualities in them. In Virat's case he is not her Dad, but he is the only person who can and should do it. Since she is also very young and he has more experience in life, he takes the liberty (with no wrong intent or not liberty as in possession) to correct her.

When they act as husband and wife, both will start doing it. He will correct her when she goes wrong and she will correct him when he goes wrong. Since they started more like a guardian and responsibility kind of relationship more than husband and wife, he had been doing it. Also, the age will always play a role in it until she grows up, or he feels she doesn't need guidance.

He does tell that in one of his dialogues too, not in this respect but when she tells he need not care about her, he tells her that he will until he thinks she can take care of herself.

Though that was to show care, I am only made to think that same holds good for him correcting her actions too.

This is always a controversial matter. Sometimes people who are too young and with not much of experience in life can also be very matured, patient, righteous. And people who are old will lack all of these. Just like our Chavan khandaan's gang or Pakhi (worst).

Beautifully written.. I might agree to all your points but not where you mentioned about doing household work..I was not talking about household work that we all start doing at that age.. I was talking about the abuse meted at her in the name of household work.. No going to hostel and taking care of herself won't be equivalent to the abuse and the work she has to do Chavan Nivas.. we all have been to hostels.. we all have seen how much work over there we have to do.. The work mostly surrounds us..makes us independent..we don't need to cook for 10-12 people and leave for college .. he talked about household chores when she was torchured with the whole mirchi peesna incident ..one can't compare that kind of work to the work one has to do when we stay in a pg or hostel..That was Virat manipulating Sai because he did not want her to go and could not also ask the people at his house to tone down.... I would always have my grudges with him when it comes to that particular episode..His dialogues were cringeworthy.. you love challenges..like how you dealt with Jagtap.. I mean seriously and 18 year old being molested is just a challenge she faced.. common now.. the fact that he is an IPS officer makes it even more ridiculous.. If this is how they want to show him protesting.. or investigating.. they should not have made him an IPS officer in the show..No punishment..not even hard words to Kaku and her band for committing a crime like that with Devi..while Sai has to be disciplined and punished for trying to go against him.

Rest I know there are issues with respect to writing ..and not the character.. ninad trying to slap Sai should have handled more aggressively by Virat..in clear words they should have made Virat say that this behaviour towards Sai in any moment of argument would not be acceptable by him.. There are other major gaps as well..

I still want him to start asking Pakhi to not talk to Sai like that.. But the way they are forcing the character and actor on our faces..like in today's episode..Rather than getting a phone talk between husband and wife we got between ex-lovers.. I don't know where are we going.. I am losing interest now honestly..
