My take on the episode
One of the best scenes of Ghum so far!! Infact the entire episode barring the last scene🙄 Like they have to put “kaala teeka” everytime 🤷♀️
First thing first! We got the answer to “Why Virat gave up on Samrat so easily” yesterday? Well, he has lost the will to fight, he has given up! He met Samrat after the anniversary debacle and all that he has gathered out of it about setting Sai free was already playing heavy on his mind. And with Samrat refusing to recognise him and the fact that Samrat somewhere felt cheated by him further aggravated that sense, infact extinguished whatever fight was left in him. He was not in a state for any more confrontations. He actually has no energy left to fight the 2 people who matter the most. This is not about whether he is right or wrong. Infact everyone here is right and wrong to certain extent. So it will be unfair to shift the entire blame on Virat. Everyone had a role to play, and a particular stage. One’s action led to others reactions and there goes the vicious cycle. But Virat portrayed how he has lost any hopes, and the will to fight any more. He has given up completely!
The scene was so intense, so powerful, yet so quiet and calm. The undercurrent of the restrained emotions was done with finesse. No hitch pitched, screaming or shouting. So well enacted by both of them👏👏
The other thing which I doubt we will ever see, is Sai acknowledging and apologising for her mistakes to Virat. She never does that, and he never pushes. It was her insecurity at its peak with Samrat talking about leaving Pakhi, and yes its high time Virat came clear. But her choice of words was downright pathetic! She accused him of doubting her character, and saying his silence spoke louder than any words. What did she do here? She did the same thing, loud and clear. Atleast she has known him for a year to understand that he will not stoop so low! She may be acting up based on her partial knowledge of his past, and he has not confided yet, but how would you agree to stay with such a guy and come back again and again to him if he is so downright sick?
Time to break down the problems
There are too many issues between Sai and Virat. And they have just piled up. To clean up this mess, it has to be a step wise breakdown and addressing of them.
Space to introspect
This is primarily for Sai right now. Virat is there, he is clear on his feelings. For them to be on the same page to move on and address the MU it is imperative that Sai understands and acknowledges her feelings for Virat. And in her case reverse psychology works. Virat will have to retreat and the vacuum created will make her introspect. He has showered her with too much attention and she has become used to it. She takes it for granted and hence everytime they have an argument and she lashes out or accuses him, she knows he will come back and they will get back to normal. But here, when he distances himself and ignores her, she will feel the pinch. She has been jealous, insecure without knowing it. Virat’s indifference will make her realise the value of his existence in her life, her feelings. Its like you dont value what you have until you lose it. This will be a classic case.
Only after this can they move on to address the other issues of MU, past, communication etc. And for a change she will have to take the initiative and make an effort towards this relationship, since Virat has given up on it. Because if Sai doesn’t really love Virat and if he also believes that, there is no point in a taking the pains of resolving their differences. So to deal with the mammoth pandora box they have created, they need to atleast know how they feel for each other, and the importance of each other in their respective lives. Virat knows it, Sai needs to know. It’s time the tables turned!
PS - Just want to know how much more time before we get to watch some nice happy scenes😔
