So true.. Wonder why the writers don't bring such scenes.. Any scene with Savi is a winner.. And upar se Baba ke saath bonding will get more stars, also show how much V really cares for his daughter. Waise the only reason he cannot claim his paternity openly is bcz of that ghatiya majboori ki shadi.. And if Virat is really serious about his kids he should break that pseudo- marriage.. It won't affect Vinu in anyway really.. He'll be happy with just Baba, aise lagta hai.. It's established that P's concern is not Vinu, only V.. And yesterday bcz V said if she does anything more to jeopardise his time with his daughter, he won't think twice about breaking their rishta.. She was begging him that despite it not being a true husband - wife relationship, still it is everything for her.. What a pathetic woman!
I don’t see in any of the Virakhi scenes, any comfort or happiness.. They're just so barren..even where he is being kind to her, it's just so rookha and formal like anyone would do to any stranger or simple acquaintance .. Don't understand why people get so triggered🤔..
And in the fight scene yesterday, the inequality was so obvious.. Virat holds all the cards, he is completely untouched emotionally by P, whereas she is totally at his mercy. Very pathetic. But I feel Virat lets it be bcz P wants that and it's enough for her and he doesn't want to put any kind of effort in that relationship. Just superficially maintains the formalities.
Sometimes I feel sorry for Virat.. He is as much a victim of his family's manipulations and expectations as he has been a perpetrator of Sai's troubles. That Bhavani Kaku is a disgusting woman who is solely responsible for all the pain in Virat's life and by association Sai's. She looks like a Mrs. Robinson to me..and she's got a twisted hold on Virat.. Which is why I really liked the scene where he clearly stated his position wrt Savi and what he expects from her..in that episode of Savi's homecoming rituals.. I didn't think he was gaslighting her at all or P before.. He was only reminding her of the clauses in their deal marriage and expecting her to keep her end up. In fact, as @Moor278 said, Virat has been a victim of gaslighting all his life..by his family then by Pakhi who had a double hold over him as someone with whom there was mutual attraction and a rudimentary understanding and then later as his brother's wife who had entered into marriage with him bcz V convinced her bcz he knew how much Samrat liked that woman. Virat is a messed up individual with a lot of mental and emotional baggage.
