Sai has always been missing her Mom and now been missing her Aabha too. The scene between Ashwini and Sai was lovely. I actually do believe that Ashwini loves Sai and understands her really well.
People value blood relationship over other relationships. I have a different opinion about it always. I think the relationship or the bond that we share is what is important. It doesn't matter whether they are related to one or not. Again, I am speaking all these when I have blood relationship, like my Mom or my siblings, so it is probably easy for me to think this way. I always believe that one has to be in the other person's position before commenting anything.
I can understand Sai's pain or yearning but I think the more the bond strengthens with Virat or Ashwini the more secured she will feel.
Sadly, I can understand her insecurity and also what you mean when by saying she can only claim her own kids. It would be good when a person wholeheartedly accept their spouses or when the inlaws wholeheartedly accept their daughter in law or son in law. There is always an invisible line between even spouses that needs to be broken.
At the end of the day, it is all upto the individual as how much can he or she let their spouse enter their entity, enter their space. A person should never let their spouse feel that they have no business about decisions related to their parents or siblings. Even after years of living together, some people do have this kind of a mentality and if that changes, people will start thinking differently.
One should treat all their relationship in the same way as their blood relationship and that will solve many problems. Be it in laws accepting DIL or SIL or vice versa too. If they can all treat them as their own, why would anyone feel insecured?
One will not yearn for parents whom they don't have if they get their parental love from their inlaws or their own spouse. They can miss their parents but won't feel lonely or insecured is what I mean. The same goes with parents, the parents will not feel insecured if their DIL or SIL treat them like their own parents. I hope that things changes in the future. I always believe, any changes, it should only start from within us.
Also, I think Sai really has to finish her studies or take a couple of more years before she even thinks of having a baby. If they follow KD, we will soon get to see it. I just hope they deviate.
Thanks Lashk that’s a really lovely insight.
I like Sai am wary of trusting too many people that might let me down. The only blood family I have is my brother and I treat my sil like my sister (even if she is not boood related) My sil family treat my bro and me like their own. I have 3 very close friends the rest are my acquaintances.
However apart from parents all other relationships are fragile…if circumstances change then so do relationships.
I relate to the Sai character as I do feel if I had been let down by somebody (like Virat throwing Sai out the house) it would be very hard to trust that person again. No matter how much I loved them but…it’s easy to say until one is personally in that position.
When the time comes I hope I can treat my in laws as family but relationships are a 2way street and everyone has to want that. Even if everyone involved has different viewpoints which is inevitable💕
Just my viewpoint
