On the first rasam when Virat and Ashwini kept pleading Kaku and his Dad, they not just refused to follow the rasam, but had insulted Ashwini too.
Sai kept watching their behavior towards Ashwini and Virat, that is why she spoke up saying she also didn't want to get married. Sai asked them why can't they accept when she is following all rasams, not because she wanted them to so that they stop hurting Virat and Ashwini.
When Virat and Ashwini gave up and were about to go to have food, she said ek minute Virat sir. And whatever she did after that wasn't a way to make others be a part of the rasam, it was made for Ashwini and Virat, was made due to how they behaved with those two. She took a stand for them right on the first day.
The way she hugged Ashwini after the others moved to the table tells that.
The way she said Virat, "pichle kuch dinon mein mere saath aapne bhi bahit kuch saha hai aur mujhe lagta nahi hai ki yeh sab jaldi khatam hone waala hai" while feeding him food said how she actually spoke for him too a while a back and not just by feeding him Shreekhand.
Sai asked him to let it be by saying "ek minute Virat sir", took charge of the situation and somehow made everyone follow/adhere to the rituals. She put an end to Ashwini and Virat's battle with Kaku and his Dad.
On the day of admission, when Ninad insulted Ashwini Sai said
"Aapko Aai se izzat se pesh aana chahiye.
Ghar ke chote jo dekhenge wahi seekhenge"
I remember this so well, may be the first time she was vocal in letting Ninad know that he shouldn't be talking to his wife that way.
She had asked them as how they always call her badtameez and tells that she doesn't know how to speak and how he was speaking to his wife.
That same day when they returned, Ninad asked Virat as how irresponsible he was, how he has been roaming taking a day off from his work, Sai asked what's wrong in a couple spending time together. In fact at the end before leaving to the room in the Rai ka pahaad, jeera ka pahaad dialogue, he also said
"Aap log Virat sir se kitne sawaal poochthey hain. Ki Chutti kyun li, Sai ki admission kyun karwa rahe ho, use bahar kyun leke gaya and so on"
She said that before she said that they have a problem with everything she does. She first spoke for Virat because as soon as they returned Ninad questioned Virat, she remembered how he asked the same question on the day of her results as why he took a day off. That is why she asked. It is to let them understand that Virat should be left alone, can't be questioned for everything. That is why she said it is not a house, it is a jail.
The same way, she asked on Mahashivratri day too, aap agar mere pati se aise sawaal karenge toh main chup nahi rahoongi. She always knows that these people ask Virat a lot of questions, expects too many things from him, doesn't give him space or freedom. That is why she spoke that.
She even asked Pakhi on MS day as how can she speak to Virat that way when Virat cares so much for her. She was shocked with Pakhi's words against Virat because she knows what all Virat is doing for Pakhi.
On the day of Amay's arrest when Virat spoke disrespectfully to Ashwini, she asked him how can he speak to his mom like that. Virat crossed a line that day and had accused his mom of supporting blindly without knowing the entire truth.
On the day that she returned from PD sirs house too, she asked Ninad as how he can speak that way to Ashwini
"Aapki himmat kaisi hui Aai se aise badtameezi se baat karne ki" when Ninad said that Ashwini won't understand anything other than "thappad".
When Ashwini was supporting Sai when Ninad was saying all those, Sonali said "audhe mein aur umr mein main aapse choti hoon, aap khel khelna chod dijiye apni bahu ki tarafdaari karke" or something like that.
Ashwini asked Sonali if she intereferes in any matters between her and Karishma, then why is she interfering in the matters between herself and Sai. She even told her "yeh mat sochna ki tum kisiko bhi salaah de sakthi ho" just because you are from a rich family and because you keep getting things from your maayka.
Sonali made a big drama and when Omi fought with Ashwini for Sonali, Sai was shocked that they had all turned the plate on Ashwini when Sonali was the one who misbehaved with Ashwini. So Sai asked how did Sonali preach Ashwini when she herself said that she is younger than Ashwini in age and in relation.
"Phir woh unhe seek kaise de rahi hai jab unhone khud kaha ki woh umr and audhe mein Aai se choti hain" or something like that.
Not just this, Sai had indirectly passed comment to Kaku that Ashwini is the one who cooks in the house and she only sits on the day she made Pakhi grind chillies. That was to remind them that they do nothing and they are nothing without Ashwini.
Most important thing, even I have listed the above so called stand taken by Sai for Virat or Ashwini, Sai has been an inspiration to all the good people of CN like Ashwini, Virat and Mohit. Devi and Bua always used to keep their points and never used to always keep mum. Ashwini.did take a stand for her son on the day of grigapravesh, but she gained courage to stand up everytime for herself too only after watching how brave/bold Sai is.
Virat himself has hardly opened his mouth against his Dad; his own Bua said that Kharbooje kahrbooje ko dekhke ang badalta hai or something like that on the day Pakhi had returned to CN.
Shivani was surprised with Virat's behavior and actions when he spoke up against his Dad. Sai was asking Devi who her husband is and when Ninad scolded Sai, Virat spoke up, he told his Dad that Sai only has good intentions for Devi.
She also told Ashwini as how the Virat who never used to speak a word against his Dad or raise his voice had actually fought with his Dad when he was insulting his wife while Ashwini was at her mayka taking care of her mom who wasn't feeling well.
That only shows that Virat has himself found voice after Sai entered his life. Even though many are unhappy with how he stays silent when people are insulting his wife or his mom, whatever stand that he has taken so far for his mom or Sai or Mohit or even Bua is a result of Sai's influence on him.
A person can take a stand for a person directly or indirectly and Sai has done both. Sai has not just stood up for Virat and Ashwini, she has also taught them to stand up for themselves and others too.
P.s Couldn't help but reply after looking at your title. Just posting this, won't be able to reply to anyone's comments.
