There should be no comparison as both have their own individuality. I can never trust Samrat who abandoned his family and duty . He looks like an escapist and I could never trust a man like him . Who knows he can run away anytime if there is some big problems. Hypothetically speaking I would never want a bf or a husband who can abandon me anytime and act dead . Samrat has failed as a son , brother and most of all as an officer . He should be court marshaled for misleading the army in believing he is MIA and using the pension amount from the army . No amount of mistakes of Virat and other characters can change these facts .
Regrading commanding respect , Virat commands same respect too . What has Samrat achieved so far by commanding respect . Virat was able to change the age old customs of not allowing women in his household to work , he changed the custom where a husband had to rename his wife as if she is some animal . What has Samrat done with his position in the family ?
Pakhi is vile but if he has married any other women he would still threaten to leave the house for his 10 day old sister . Where are his priorities as a husband ? He puts unnecessary pressure on his wife to keep the family together and says he can be happy only if his family is . What if it was Sai who married him and he had said this when family was against Sai initially . It’s easy to mouth dialogues in support of people but taking responsibility of the same person is not a joke . Just because he is supporting Sai doesn’t make him a good son , brother , husband and a responsible person .
If Samrat is a righteous person then why didn’t he take stand for his sister and brother ? Why only for Sai ? A person cannot be called superior than the other because he supports one person in the family . Overall he is a big disappointment
