Despite everything, seeing this promo made me emotional. The Sai and Virat in the beginning (or till Samrat was there ) didn't deserve this. Savi baby didn't deserve this.
I saw many comparing Satya to patralekha..as someone who watched ghum from the beginning, I have to say that's so wrong. There's no comparison to that wretched woman who ruined so many lives, killed a child within the womb and snatched a newborn from it's mother. Even after leap..she stubbornly held on to Virat even when she watched him get destroyed and broken. That woman never loved Virat or Vinu..she was satisfied only when she trapped Sai in the same predicament as her..in a loveless marriage, the success of her manipulation . And then she walked out just like that. No punishment,nothing.
There's no character in itv that can match the vileness of patralekha.
Yes Satya's character graph dipped so bad..yet he isn't yet vile and monstrous like patralekha was.
I'm not putting the whole blame on patralekha..Virat also contributed to the ruin by marrying the woman who wreaked Sai's life and stayed with her for no good reason. He saw sense when everything was too late.
Sai also fell into patralekha and Ashwini's manipulations so easily, signed up for a marriage which was not necessary at all. And suffered the most out of all other characters with no retribution.
And now Sai and Virat's journey ends before they get any semblance of happiness. It's so sad and disappointing.
The writers had a good chance to present Leena's Rono and emon, they got such a huge audience too..yet they destroyed it all for their offscreen bias. Hope "the couple who play victim card " is happy. They achieved a feat that was never done in its before. Ruined a good show and great jodi just for their selfishness.
Let this be lesson for all other itv producers to strictly enforce a no relationship clause when they hire actors and never hire this couple together in any other show in future.
Will always cherish the morning written update thread, nutty's memes, Moor's reviews, Nja91's valid points against the injustice happening to Sai and the story, the fandom's collective stand against patra the laal malkin which failed all the whitewashing attempts. Will miss you all. Will also miss the Sai Bai who made me watch this toxic show in hope that one day she'll get justice. Will also miss the cutest munchkin Savi aka Aria.
Signing off with the hope that Ayesha get an amazing show with a professional crew and leas actor very soon. Girl has talent,stellar screen presence and an amazing personality, she'll surely go places 🤞✨️.
With love
Ratna.
