Even without the marriage, Virat would have provided the care and guidance that Sai needed.
Since the marriage happened, there is no way Sai can escape all the household drama. Sai is too young to deal with all this stuff. But Virat will not become team-Sai and go against family too. He knows that his family is flawed but he still loves them because they are his fam regardless. Sai and Virat have a long way to go when it comes to understanding eachother, love etc.
Regardless the age, when a person gets married, they are expected to carry out all responsibilities. A married woman is expected to carry out all her duties regardless regardless her age being 18 or 30.
Its fine to help around the house where you are living, bahu or not, so far, Sai doesn't seem to be having problem doing housework.
What you said is true, but I meant more about the other drama in sasural. No bahu signs up for daily insults. The way family taunts Ashwni, Karishma is OTT. Bhavani is the source of the problem. Even though she says so many things, but she does things totally opposite of what she says (like talking about respecting others when she herself doesn't leave a chance to insult other people, differentiating between bahus oats vs conflakes etc)
But the family knows Sai is 18 year old, who is right out of school and lost her father recently. She has no guidance on becoming a bahu and she is probably the youngest member in the household now. Elders in the family instead of guiding her with love, are taunting her and her parvarish (i.e. indirectly taunting her dad for bad values, forgetting that he gave up his life for Virat).
They can treat her respectfully like any other human being and if she still insults them and is rude, I can understand Bhavani's point of view then.
Not saying Sai doesn't have faults, but if it was any other person other than Sai, they would have not been able to handle this family. Even Pakhi would have gone that way, but Samrat's money is saving her. Otherwise who can forget how she was not even allowed to go visit her parents initial days of marriage.
