To me it looked like he did not want to tread in that direction and not sad about not being with her, sad about what she has done to herself thinking about those few days ,which are nothing compared to the days they have stayed being devar bhabhi..I also feel he would not have felt this bad for her if her husband was around. However I do feel there was a miss in direction. I am having issues with how they are going with Virat Pakhi equation and how suddenly Virat appears to be okay around here, while a few days back he was not fine and extremely irritated. Then again he got to know she was involved in whole Sao ousting issue knowing the whole truth. So he should be angry and he should also not like how she takes Sai's name with loath.. So there I have no clue why they are treading the Virat feeling bad for PP and bechari Patralekha way...especially when we have recently seen him so so enraged.
I am certainly not okay with How Virat is being written these days but I dont mistake it as his remnant feelings for Patralekha.. The remnant feelings have been dealt with during the alta episode when he talks to her about moving on with what life gives you..
