Exactly my sentiments! ❤️
Parenting of Virat and Sai- Yes absolutely. Though a single child Sai was brought up with immense love and care. For Virat they did love him but he could never get accepted for the real Virat which comes out when he is with Sai. I think with the fam he has to portray himself as an ideal son. He's constrained and suffocated by their expectations. Sai brings out the real Virat for me. His conditioning undoubtedly played a role. That's why before Sai came into his family he never noticed the hardships his mother went through. It all seemed normal earlier. But now he actively raises his voice for his mother too. Again Sai becoming a catalyst for Virat. Virat on the other hand has helped Sai to tone down her confrontational nature.
There can be two perspectives about Chavans as caregivers. One as you pointed out - he was loved but expected to be an ideal son. Another one - that he is NOT truly loved and yet expected to be the trophy son for the family. I tend to lean towards the second. Many children are victims of parents who expect too much. Such children feel suffocated and even supress their emotions. But will such a child develop the toxicity that Virat seems to have imbibed? Do such parents emotionally manipulate and instigate their children to act inhumanly? I strongly believe that these aspects are classical case of a narcissistic upbringing. Bhavani according to me is a narcissist.
Also DevKit shaadi was a disater. I am happy to see finally Devi being reunited with her husband. Pulkit deserves credit too- he waited for his wife for 10 long years. Devi deserved this happiness and it wouldn't have been possible without Sai. For 10 long years, nobody even paid attention to Devi's rant about her husband. But they had to do drama and separation for TRP's. Virat crossed limits but tbh separation helps them. They are stronger than before, understanding is evident, and are working as a team. So I am lowkey satisfied with separation. Waiting for open communication between them.
@bold That was exactly what the writers seemed to be aiming for. But the execution was so absurd. It was a very crucial plot - one that to be written with great care.
Agree with everything you said ❤️
