I completely agree. I hv always maintained that both knew what they were getting into. That's what I hv kept saying Sai cant complain nor can Virat of course. But its the Sai bhakts who keeps saying oh Sai is bechara... She had no choice etc. But actually I feel both knew what wud happen so bhukto... Sai came back hime voluntarily twice before this time. What dis ahe think when she came back?! Virat in fact had asked her why cant we gv a pati-patni kind of relationship? So when she came back what did she expect? That she cud stay a kuvari at her sasural?! She I agree both knew what they were getting into so no sympathies for either from my side.
I have a different view about this. What I have felt is that Sai at that time wasn’t in a position to think or be her usual strong self. She had just lost her Dad, didn’t have anyone who thought if it was even an age for her to get married, who just wanted to hand over her responsibility to someone. She wasn’t given much of time to even grieve over her Dad’s death and so, she just surrendered to the situation. She was a burden on the villagers too and she knew it. She also couldn’t have refused Usha Maushi who was asking if she meant nothing and was just a maid whose words Sai wouldn’t follow. Anyway, my post was to say that I don’t understand why is physical relationship brought into picture now and not when they got married when Virat didn’t think that Sai can have needs or what would be Sai’s future after all this ended. He was the one who put the idea in her head that he had promised someone that he will stay single throughout his life, then I don’t see why or how Sai will be thinking about his needs or desires. When he shared about his waada, it only meant that he planned to stay single throughout his life and that he has no such expectations from her and she also shouldn’t have from him.
It is now that when Kaku or Ashwini are speaking is Sai even able to see or might have got an idea that Virat doesn’t have issues with these and he is okay to have a child with her.
Let me share my understanding of Sai.
She came with him only because Ashwini manipulated her by saying Virat’s life will be at risk. In the past, Sai hasn’t pushed him away or rejected his advances. It all changed at Mahabaleshwar after she heard the yoga instructor talk about Virat Pakhi chemistry, how she thought they were perfect and also Virat’s misleading story at lovers’s point. And then also in the previous track where she thought that Samrat’s return was disturbing him. That too it wasn’t because he wasn’t happy his brother returned but she thought that he probably wasn’t happy that Samrat and Pakhi might become one and that is why he was reacting to her that way, behaving mercilessly with her and even crossed all boundaries acting inhuman with her locking her up in the room. She has not seen him this wild though she has seen him a couple of times during Amay track or ousting or even during Ajinkya track. All of those events, she knew the reason and this time, she wasn’t able to even think that it was happening because what happened between them during the anniversary because she didn’t know that he wanted them to have a real marriage. He has never clarified or told her that whatever he spoke during the marriage doesn’t matter and he plans to move on, asking her if she will be willing to consider to be a real marriage.
In my view, there was an agreement between them which Virat had initiated so the onus is on him to clarify if the terms have changed. He hasn’t told till today that he has no feelings for Pakhi. He has only said he has told Pakhi that he won’t be fulfilling the commitment anymore. To her, it all looks like he is doing it all because she will think bad since she got upset after the pool incident.
When Virat wanted it to be a deal marriage, she agreed to it. When Virat wants it to be a real marriage, he should say it out as clearly as how he spoke whatever he spoke when they got married. Also, she agreed to marry him at that age only because of her compulsion, her situation. She has conditioned herself to think that this marriage comes with an expiry date and that she was his responsibility only so that she doesn’t develop any kind of expectations from him which he can’t fulfill as a husband.
Virat has had a change of feelings, but she isn’t aware of it. Sometimes such things can be quite tricky and not easy for everyone to understand. Virat has been dumb till today to be ignoring Pakhi’s advances. He has not even been able to believe when Sai told him what Pakhi is feeling or doing. If being a police officer, he is not able to connect the dots, what can we say about this girl not been able to realise her feelings. How is she going to be able to believe that he has feelings for her after the way he keeps supporting his friend, ganging up with his friend to put her down, after the way he abused her by locking her up in the room. Any person in her state would be traumatised and she is going with the flow and has returned to the house only because Ashwini told that. She isn’t sure about what Virat feels for Pakhi and not quite confident about Virat himself. Whatever she is seeing in this friendship phase is something that she likes and would love to be his wife but she is also not certain and is scared as what if he would go back to his old ways of abusing her or humiliating her. A person can think about any kind of physical relationship only when they feel secured with their partner in terms of everything and here I won’t blame her if Sai is not feeling secured.
To your question about whEn she came back, what she expected. She just listened to Ashwini’s words and returned having no expectations or thoughts about how things are going to be. She was just going with the flow. She is in the phase where she has slowly started to trust Virat. I am not talking about wrt Pakhi, talking wrt his behaviour. She must have got so depressed before she left the house after the way he behaved and I am not sure if she can be blamed for not able to move on with him as a wife after however he behaved. She needs time to trust him completely again. Kaku spoke about kids when things were going on well between them as friends. The thought scares her. She isn’t confident to be his wife since he was a different person as a husband. She needs to be able to believe that he will be with her and won’t behave like that again with her for her to be able to accept him as her husband. One can’t push her to accept him especially after whatever has happened.
And about her staying kuvari at her sasural. Isn’t that what Virat planned to do when they got married? My post is to address this too. If Virat had not fallen in love with Sai, would he have himself agreed to Kaku’s demands? Did he not plan not to have any physical relationship with Sai and end this marriage like that after she finishes her studies? Did he not plan to not get married at all? Then how was Sai supposed to think this? As per Sai, Virat wanted it this way and he will be the one who will handle his family because he wanted it this way. It is very obvious, if Virat had not fallen in love with Sai, whenever Kaku or someone demanded for a child, it would have been him who would have asked them not to talk about it or expect anything from him. Because in that scenario, he will be fulfilling his waada and he will be taking care of anything that came its way.
Everything comes back to only one thing that Viratms feelings have changed but not the agreement or conditions that he had put forth to Sai. She has moved back to this house from the hospital just like how she walked in to this house after their marriage.
