He is still much better considering the kind of upbringing he must have had.. with BK always taking credit.
See, its not an openly chauvinistic approach but its the minor details that can play havoc on the impressionable mind. Like being told that as a male, you have a right to do anything, choose anything etc.
And he is the firstborn male of the Chavan name... to usko definitely pampering hua hoga. Probably also why BK Ash dont gel. Ash has a different approach... a softer one. Sadhika had also hinted at this when she compared Sai-V ka upbringing.
I like this role reversal. Had been on mind since many days... but the bold confession by Sai gave me that confirmation.
