Awesome post ❤️. Yet to watch the episode but watched a few clippings.

My views can change after I watch the full episode but let me share my understanding of what Sai spoke to Pakhi.

I could see that Sai was able to see and understand what Pakhi was trying to say. It looked to me like Sai was defending Virat by saying he was doing it for her since he has a very big heart and since he doesn’t want her to feel bad when she has no one in this world. It looked similar to how she had defended Virat and assured Pakhi near the pool saying Virat never breaks his promises. I am still not entirely sure as I need to watch the whole sequence but this is how it looked to me for now.

She just couldn’t stop feeling thankful for what Virat had done for her and she couldn’t see Pakhi blaming him again that he didn’t fight for their love. She could clearly see what Pakhi was trying to say that if he had shown courage, things would have been different. That made her defend him saying that because it was as if Pakhi was accusing Virat and was growing angry on him. What she said was something she felt out of gratitude and who was in awe of the man who had done so much to just make her feel special since she has no one else in the world.

Can’t comment on ashirwad scene now but I didn’t like the pull that they showed. What was that? An arm comes and pulls Sai and they are already in a car? They are irritating audience to the core by such things. How nice would it have been to see Virat pulling Sai and showing us him taking her to the car, opening the door of the car and all that. They can’t just come up with any simple romantic moments too. Ridiculous.

Will come back later if possible once I watch the episode.

Beautifully said, as always. I agree with (mostly) everything you have said here. I understood the pool scene to be slightly different from Sai's point of view than what happened today. During the pool scene, when she told Pakhi not to worry and that Virat never breaks his promises, I felt as if she was telling that more to herself than to Pakhi. You could see the pain in her eyes, as if she was remembering the zimidari vaada in that very moment. When she said that, the hurt in Virat's eyes was also evident...it was an unintentional jab at him, because at that point, neither the vaada he made to Pakhi nor Sai mattered to him. All that mattered was Sai and his love for her.

Today, it was an entirely different situation. Like you have perfectly stated, her only intention was to defend Virat. She was so overcome with emotions that Virat did all of this for her- all she wanted was for him to remember her birthday, and instead, he surpassed all of her expectations. He paid heed to every little detail . She is truly in awe of him and how he cares for her- after she lost her abba, she thought she would be alone, but Virat proved her wrong. When she said that Virat is celebrating the birthday of a girl who has no family, that to me was Sai admiring Virat's heart. Not only did Virat himself celebrate Sai's birthday, but he also understands the value of family to Sai, so he got the entire family involved too. Sai even told Pakhi that this proves how much he loves everyone and how big his heart is...so unintentionally, she acknowledged Virat's love for herself too. Maybe not as a husband yet, but as family at the very very least.

In Kd ashirwaad scene was very cute.

(Oh god save me from my KD hangover 😵)

This seems like a good episode, didi ki dhamakedaar beizzati hogi infront of her sasumaa🤣

Haven't watched the whole episode yet, but Virat is lucky, his baiko is more happy with delicious food rather than diamond. Iss hisaab se yeh ek aur chavan Niwas khada kar denge apne savings se🤣

Thankyou for the update ❤️

I think Virat was happy that she appreciated him and said that he has a big heart who has love for everyone. Virat knows that Sai has feelings for him but has still not realised her feelings for him. He had anyway been giving time to let her realise her feelings for him. He had also asked her to look into his actions and not his words to try to understand him. It looked like an understanding person who could see Sai is able to look at his actions and what kind of a person he was, as if she was able to understand his good nature but has still not realised why he was doing and what she feels for him. It only looked like he could see that she is saying all these only because she hasn’t realised what he feels for her and what she feels for him. He would be thinking that all her misconceptions would end once she comes to know about their feelings for each other.

This again, I watched it in a clipping and this is how it looked fo me.

I second everything you have said here. The tears in his eyes said it all. He was overcome by emotion to see Sai appreciating and understanding him so deeply. I truly thought it was a beautiful moment.

I think maybe one of my main problems with it, after watching it again, was that yet again, it was done with body doubles. Virat's hand barely even touched Sai's head. When will this end...🤢

Thanks Neerja! Loved reading your post as usual- I always look forward to it.

Here's my take on the episode-

I actually really enjoyed the car scene. Maybe that will turn out to be an unpopular opinion. The way Virat was getting so nervous was really cute. I especially loved the dialogue where Sai told him that she has never seen him this flustered, and he said that he has never said those words before either. This moment really showed yet again that Sai is the first and only person that Virat has ever loved. I'm sad the scene was cut short, but hopefully we will see some sort of continuation of it at night when Virat will personally put the ring on Sai. My truest hope would be that he also ends the zimidari saga, but I know that won't happen. So, instead, I'm hoping for a meaningful conversation that progresses their relationship another step forward.

I was not as annoyed as some other people about Sai leaving the car so quickly for KaKu. This is the first day where the entire family has been there to celebrate her, and the drama from them has been relatively low. She is on cloud 9, and we all know the significance family holds for her.

You are right- there is nothing worth getting so deep into about the Pakhi drama. But, I really loved how Virat told her that her karma is catching up to her and that there is no harm in saying one bitter thing to the person who only says bitter words. His expressions were also those of disgust. At this point, he is truly 100% over her and her antics. Yesterday, he said that he knows better than anyone else in the family how much Pakhi hates Sai. After all of this, it will be a complete butcher of his character for him to be instigated by anything negative she says about Sai. So, with the upcoming kaand, the least the makers must must must do is to prevent him from falling for Pakhi's words. There will be no justifying that. I have written in some other topics about his impulsivity and how he gets caught in his emotions as we all know, so saying things he doesn't mean to Sai out jealously, insecurity, love, fear...that is honestly to be expected (although I am still daily manifesting and praying to god that he does NOT cross the limit...the kind of love he is in now, he should stop short of the character assassination regardless of how emotional he becomes). But, Pakhi should not be a part of that equation.

I loved how Virat stopped arguing with Pakhi the second Sai asked him to. He really does want to make this day as special for her as possible, and there is nothing more important to him than her wishes.

The ashirwaad scene felt kind of odd to me... it was too father-daughter vibes for me, unlike the ashirwaad scene after Sai's admission, which is till this date one of my favorite SaiRat moments.

Then, the highlight of the episode. The modak scene. It was simply beautiful. This birthday track has truly given us some of the best emotional moments of this show until date. Sai's squeal upon realizing Virat made them was priceless. And the way that Virat finished Sai's sentence and already knew that her abba made the modaks on every special occasion. He even told her that he wishes he could have tried her abba's modaks. This scene, to me, is the essence of SaiRat. It is more beautiful to me than any other traditional romantic scene. It just yet again shows the extent of Virat's deep deep deep affection and understanding for Sai. Sai's face when Virat was telling her all of that was that of a girl in complete awe. Sai isn't accepting her feelings, but she is falling so so so hard in love.

Regarding your analysis of Sai's response to Pakhi about how Virat is just making a girl with no family feel special, I actually didn't mind it. Virat's heart is what drew her to him in the first place, and she is just overcome with emotions. She had no one, and now through Virat, she has everyone. Of course she will not acknowledge that it is a husband's love, because she has not accepted it as such yet. Seeing the tears in his eyes in response to her praises of him was also so beautiful.

Now, moving on to the negatives.

Words cannot explain how much I hated Pakhi's dialogue of if Virat had shown himat on the day it mattered, things would be a lot different. Is this girl ever ever going to move on??? It was just too much.

As you mentioned, the body doubles were glaringly obvious again. I noticed it especially during the dining table full shots, where the guy sitting in Neil's place was way shorter than him. Again, how hard is it to invest in a BD who actually looks like the ML? The sloppiness continues. I really hope they are seeing our posts on SM and this forum and that they will take our concerns into consideration.

Finally, I am really holding on to some positive hope that the track next week will not be what we are thinking. Whatever the kaand is, I hope it is modified to account for how deeply in love with Sai Virat is...Rono's love did not even come close.

I haven't watched the entire episode yet poo😳

But I have seen some clippings, and by those I liked the car scene, why? Is their some unknown gadbad lurking🤣

But seems it is a good episode with didi ki beizzati 🤣

I'll have to see the ashirvad scene😆

If I want to blindly defend it w.r.t. Sai or Virat, then maybe cuz Sai meant it that way. I mean not as a father - daughter type. Cuz, I guess Sai somehow prioritizes Virat as the first one in her family now. Earlier, the first and only one was her aaba, and it was a sign of respect. And now the first begins with Virat, maybe that is why buzurg feels🤣

I liked the car scene too. I thought it was very cute. And hopefully we will see the continuation at night because Virat still has to put the ring on baiko 😊

I love your take about the ashirwaad scene. It seemed kind of off because they used body doubles again, and Virat's hand barely touched Sai's head. It was just weird. But, I completely agree with you about Sai's intentions- Virat is the most important person in her life, and she has the utmost respect for him. In that moment, she was overcome with such deep gratitude for him. It was a sign of love at the end of the day.

But, Virat's response just sounded too fatherly too me 🤣

Like I said in my original post, the college admission ashirwaad scene still gives me chills to this day. It was so beautiful.

Par BD use hi kyu karna hai🤣

Kyu itna kharcha karna haiiiiiiii🤣 This sounds absurd and doesn't have any significance at all. Why all of a sudden. When Neil is there itself, kuch toh locha hai babu bhaiya , par kya hai yeh locha🤣

Thank you Niranjana for update

Kese bhi karke yeh character shaming track na dikhaye bas
