Virat does not feel rejected by Sai. Rather, he is broken that he did not even get the chance to be neither accepted nor rejected. In his mind, this marriage has been a deal for Sai all along, and she will never be willing nor able to look at it in another way. The state he is in now is the result of almost a year of feeling misunderstood by Sai... it is the result of pent up frustration and pain that Sai is unable to recognize his love. I'm not saying that this isn't his fault too for failing to clarify things, but I am just talking from his perspective right now.
No matter how vile his behavior was, it was his hurt speaking and nothing else. He keeps telling Sai to stay away from him...that he wants to be left alone. He keeps telling her not to assert her rights over him. His tone may come across as angry, but if we look past that, we see that he is doing nothing but trying to protect his heart. If he lets Sai close to him, he will start melting, only to be brought back into the reality of the deal marriage again. He is frustrated seeing her care towards him, because as he said in the previous episode, he does not understand Sai. He sees how deeply she cares for him, and yet, she cannot accept this marriage nor see his love. Isn't this the exact same situation that has been paining and frustrating Sai this entire time? She sees Virat's affection towards her, and yet she is confused because he hides behind the zimidari tag due to his own insecurities, fears, and inability to see how badly she needs him to speak up. And in this way, for pretty much the identical reason as Sai, Virat has now put his walls up. Up until now, he was entirely vulnerable. But, now, his mind is telling him to distance himself, because it will only result in more pain if he doesn't. However, his heart is unable to stop loving Sai, so he is trying to suppress those emotions to the best of his ability.
Him knocking the plate over was a mere accident. It was clear from his reaction... he even looked like he was going to get up and clean it up, but Sai told him that she would do it. Again, I am not justifying the way in which he acted. But, I am merely trying to explain what he is going through. Sai, understandably, was desperate to take care of him. But, he was desperate for her to stay away, and she was not listening. So, he got frustrated and shoved the plate. Still, Sai kept trying to help him, and he got even more frustrated....so he yelled bitter words at her. Why? Because, seeing Sai's care for him is killing him. He does not want to see it...he does not want any more false hope. His explosion is not justified. Not even in the slightest. But, his sentiments behind the explosion, to me, are.
Also, looking at Virat's behavior right now cannot be confined to his emotions and feelings towards Sai. He is also feeling deeply misunderstood by Samrat. He feels the pressure to fix his marriage with Pakhi. He feels the tension in the house. In order to understand why he exploded, we must take into consideration all of these factors too. This man is not only heartbroken, but he is also buckling under numerous other tensions and stressors.... Also, he is literally physically ill.. For those bringing up the DIG Sir incident... Sorry if I come across as insensitive, but I did not find that outburst of his to be toxic nor "wrong." He thought he was going to lose the job he had worked towards his entire life. Many people would react in the same way that he did. Again, not to undermine the pain that he caused Sai, but his feelings were entirely justified in that moment to me.
Virat's behavior was without a doubt wrong, but the situation that Sai and Virat are in right now is the fault of both of them. This is what happens when there are such deep communication issues in between a couple. This is what happens when one person leaves themselves entirely vulnerable and the other has walls greater than the great wall of china around their heart. Just to reiterate, I am not trying to downplay the fact that Virat has created this entire mess to begin with.... I have written numerous posts from Sai's POV, but here, I am just trying to see things from Virat's. Up until this point, people were not understanding Sai's pain, because she was not crying. She was hiding behind her harsh exterior, using that to mask her pain. Her pain was coming across in her brashness. And, now, when Virat is acting the same way (although to the extreme), people are labeling his pain as anger, revenge, etc....
All of this being said, Sai does not deserve this. Not even in the slightest. This poor girl has already suffered more pain and heartbreak at such a young age than most people suffer in an entire lifetime. She is having to grapple with her own feelings for Virat, her own fears of losing him, her own confusions all on her own. She has no one..absolutely no one in her corner. Yes, Samrat understands her and is trying to guide her, but she cannot be open with him... it breaks my heart that the photo of her abba is the only thing she can speak her heart to. Virat, in his own hurt, is entirely breaking Sai. The girl who used to be strong and fight back against all wrong, now cannot even fight back against him treating her this poorly.... because she is not only utterly confused by the reason for his behavior, but she is also utterly in love with him. The thought of losing him is wrecking her to the extent that she is entirely losing herself. To think that this is just the start of her mental breakdown is absolutely devestating. She has endured daily domestic abuse by Virat's family, she has forgiven Virat in nearly a heartbeat after all of his kaands, she has accomodated herself to CN's rules and regulations.... she has done everything she possibly could for Virat. And yet, he has been unable to see any of this... he has been unable to recognize the impact his vaada has had on her and as a result, he has failed to see past her harsh exterior to realize that he is her everything....
All in all, this is just an entirely messed up situation. I don't know how else to put it. The fact that Sai will have to realize her love for Virat due to the fear of losing him and witnessing him behaving this indifferent, coldy, and rudely with her is just horrible. And, Virat's pain, brokenness, and numbness is equally devestating in my opinion....
