I could not fit a logical theory on what would have happened in that 5 /6 years.
13th day there is no photo of sai! So pakhi must be crazy and hallucinating. I am not sure how virat allowed her in home?! Ok let’s assume he is in his own world of sorrow and mansi also died. Pakhi has gone crazy. They didn’t put sais picture.
she might have run away and gone to MB. May be virat will be forced to go there to save her from being suicidal. Then she might be in samrats ashram. Virat will find a connection with vinu there. This will be a nice touch if samrats ashram rescued vinu! Mama/kaka divine love can play a role.
So knowing that she turned suicidal, virat might get her home by marrying her(fake please). He gets better and she gets better too! The family folk though reluctant might start accepting the fact that they married for adoption and seeing the results in virat and change in pakhi they might have accepted her.
To give a good footing for pakhi in the house, virat might have said she found the boy?!!
or if pakhi is negative.
she goes to MB under depression but finds vinu. She knows it is vinu and adopts him. Bring her home. Virat gets better so family asks her to stay. After few years, he might have married her (fake) if she had any mental illness.
Nothing makes sense I know but I could not come up with a better theory.
