I should not expect a hero out of Virat), karma playing silently. It feels so much real and thats when you appreciate the story. Yesterday I was so disappointed at Virat in the way he was trying to move on with Pakhi, and conveying the same to Ashwini. Today, we seen him completely as Sai's husband. Not an inch moved. Even Sai, not an inch moved. Pakhi, scrambling her way through Karma. I dont know seriously whether they are putting so much though to it. But I am writing what I observed/felt.
Virat, is using Pakhi. True. But it is not intentionally. It is like taken for grantedness. To explain better, think of a person who lived close to you who has always wronged you. Has no self respect. Pursued you shamelessly. You know so much 'dark' stuff about that person, and if you are doing some 'ehsaan' on that person, how will you feel. A really genuine, saint like person will not treat him/her any differently, especially if that person is changed. But for normal people who are not always in their best behavior, will take them for granted. Or not care about their feelings. Wrong them knowingly/unknowingly and not even care about it or feel guilty about it. I felt exactly like that looking at Virat's behavior towards Pakhi today.
He didnt accept that he used her, but didnt apologize also. He didnt even care! He reprimanded her for buying that ring as a family member. He would have done that with karishma also. He was upset that Sai sold the ring, so much so we can see his response directly to Sai the next morning. He was Very upset. Then when he comes to bed, he was lost in Jaggy giving money to Sai. Either he is thinking about Sai's need for money or his dirty thoughts about Jags acquaintance with Sai. He was lost in her thoughts, unable to sleep. When he hears pakhi though, his immediate reaction was to ask for her safety, rather worriedly. This reaction has more history I felt. Lets not go there. When he said she knows why she is upset, pakhi is shocked and looks at him expectantly. But he is so superficial 🤣. He said you brought the ring and I scolded you! 😃He doesnt stop there, he goes to sing praises about his wife's self respect. It indirectly showed me how inconsiderate he is towards Pakhi's self respect, because he never saw her behaving like one. Thats what I tried to tell in the above paragraph. When a person subconsciously knows that the person he is dealing with never behaved like one having self respect, he would not expect her to feel bad at his behavior at jewelry store. He would feel like she wants my company, I gave it to her and she should be happy. I think thats what Virat's meaning of giving Pakhi's share of haq and happiness meant. The name and company. Not the rights and companionship.
Pakhi tries to explain him that he hurt her with his behavior but he denies. Not sure if it is P1 or P2, but anyone would feel bad to be used like that. But that is her karma biting her. How she used Samrat. She is facing it first hand.
He does a lip service of saying she stood strong by him. If you see the way he says it, it doesnt appear genuine. It is like comforting her or shutting her so she ends the discussions. Next moment, he escapes from her and sleeps. Pakhi is herself confused what ehsaan she did, all she did was due to her love!! So her taking care of Vinu is for Virat then? Mera baccha mera baccha is all fake?
Now I dont want to talk about Chavanese, the disgusting and selfish scum. Ashwini had hurt Savi. Tomorrow she will drown her in her tears and mucus. So nothing new there. What is highlight for me is how SaiRat's family is there to live in the moment of Vinu's milestone. Everyone present there is pure love. Sai kisses him like his aai. Virat is over the top. I like how Savi helps her brother walk. Everytime she holds him with her two hands.
Now, Virat Sai Chavan comes into the picture. Goes gaga over his wife, takes her hands and even caresses on the finger missing the ring. Gets pissed off, Sai observes it. (did she?) and tries to walk off. This scene is a delight to watch, especially if you see it in succession with how he was thinking about her the previous night, explaining to Pakhi about Sai as someone who knows her in and out and then how he behaves as he used to behave with Sai on their best days. they are deliberately showing the closeness and comfort. If this is good writing which evoke right emotions, what happens to other episodes? Are they showing something there too? I dont know. I didnt understand Pakhi or Virat in the hospital episodes at all. They are behaving like a couple...but today they are like strangers. There has to be something missing. It cant be incoherent writing. I will wait for other reviews to keep more hope.
PS: Virat was doing hamara bacha jaap today. Is it a blooper or plot point I mean he never did that before.
