A letter from Virat to Sai

Hi Friends,

If my instincts are right, this is what will happen in the serial.

This is a scene after the courtroom drama. Meanwhile I am disappearing from the forum. For many of you would be tempted to throw things at me.

Main Sagi, yahan se Bhagi...

-----

Sai,

I hope you read this letter in the correct frame of mind. Not that I care anymore about it. It’s all over now, anyway, between us. But was it really there? Anything?

I saw you in the court that day. You were strong enough not to buckle under the cross questioning from my lawyer. Only at one place I felt you hesitated a little. Even I felt uncomfortable. But then you schooled your features and replied that it was not for the court to know all these matters. Well said, and that stance was enough for the Judge to intervene. Well, there cannot be any proof. Only either of us know. We have been staying in the same room since the day we got married and never crossed the physical boundary.

You had levelled pretty serious charges against me. Bigamy and fathering a child outside the wedlock. Well, that’s what was being seen by the entire world. Including my parents and You. But you are not the rest of the world for me, Sai. You are more than that. Not even once you could see the pain in my eyes, the inner tussle as I flipped between my love and duty? The baby, who is allegedly my son, was born in the hospital after a complicated surgery. Nine months before, I was on a mission and got shot, after that I was in the hospital, with you attending to me. So when was the baby conceived? Did you ever think about these facts of life?

Talking about missions, I came back after shooting Sada, my best friend. He died in my arms. He told me about his wife, who was pregnant. I promised him, entirely in the capacity of a friend, that I would take care of her and the unborn child. Then I realized that his wife was in mortal danger. Not only from the police but also from his own comrades. The same people who revered him would not hesitate to harm her: I knew about that from my contacts beforehand. So went in search of her and my worst fears were confirmed. I overheard her comrades conspiring to kill her. I had to smuggle her to Nagpur. Yes, that’s the word. Smuggle her, under the guise of being my wife. I was about to depute one of the lady personnel to take care of her but she refused. I understood what she wanted to tell me: the lesser people knew about her, the better. So there she was, as Mrs Shruti Chavan.

I was distressed that night. You noticed it and labelled it as exhaustion. I slept in your lap, you caressed my head. Restless in my sleep, I had just one concern. Shruti, hidden away in the hotel room as Mrs Chavan with no papers for identification. Then she took a turn to the worse and called me. You intercepted the call and could sense that something was wrong. You coaxed me into sharing. But I couldn’t. We learn early in our professional life that the lesser people know about a secret the better. What you do not know you cannot give away. I hoped that you, as a police officer’s daughter, would have known it better. Every time you don’t blow your trumpet to the world. But still I tried. I hoped you would understand. On stake was my professional reputation, my job, my love, my family, everything. And I would have explained everything, everything, everything.

I rushed to Shruti and by then the hotel management had already called a doctor. It was a tortuous night, with me and the doctor by her bedside. Well, Shruti soon stabilised and the doctor left after prescribing medicines. I too was about to leave to get her medicines when Shruti stopped me from leaving. She wanted to be a witness but didn’t trust anybody around her. She didn’t care for her own life but cared for her unborn child. I wanted to connect her to the DIG but she refused. Once her child was born and she was medically stable, she would give her statement to the magistrate. She promised me that. Till then this make believe drama was to continue.

Well, that would be two weeks at the most, I figured. She would deliver and I would turn her to the DIG and return back to you. But that was not to be. Mohit saw me at the hotel where she was staying. At the same time your result was declared and this coincided with Shruti’s turn of getting worse. I was again torn between my duty and my love. Your college planned a huge celebration and I so wanted to be in the front row. Cheering for you. Standing ten feet tall, so proud of you..But then…it was not to be that way. Call it coincidence? Shruti had to be admitted for a complicated delivery, my presence was needed there. The delivery ultimately went well and a baby boy, an act of God, arrived in this world. I assumed that my tussle was over. Or was it? No..I poured out my heart to the newborn child, about you, his Kaki, being the most brilliant doctor on this planet. And being felicitated for a brilliant academic performance and I couldn’t even join that..I even promised him that I would apologize to you once this was all over. I told him what a wonderful person you were. You would spoil him silly in no time. Stupid of me, I didn’t realize the futility of the dream. The world being a small place, Shruti developed complications and Pulkit was called in for the surgery. And you were asked to assist him.

I still remember you face when we met in the ward. Me as Shruti’s husband and you as her doctor. Your eyes had the expression of being stabbed in the back and I died a million deaths that very instant. You tried to be professional but I could see through you. Broken from within. My fingers ached to soothe you but…What a mess it was. I had created it? Yes! But what option did I have? Shruti’s statement as a witness was the only goal. It had to be recorded voluntarily, without any threat or pressure. As it is, the Human Rights Organisation were baying for our blood. If Shruti would have turned hostile in front of the DM, all efforts would have been down the drain. Her willingness, her safety was far more important than anything else in my world. Including you.

Somewhere in this tight ropewalk, Shruti turned in her head. She sensed it all and didn’t want the burden of my broken marriage on her conscience. She wanted to clarify matters with you but..you wanted to hear none of it. I held your hand and wept in front of Bappa’s idol. In a way I was trying to reassure you that I was untainted. Shruti was safe in the capable hands of Pulkit. You pulled your hand back abruptly and it was all over. What was left of our relationship, that is.

Then one day, you served me the divorce notice. Whatever little hope I had of salvaging our lives, died that moment. There was nothing left to live for, look forward to. DIG Sir, a trained police officer, guessed within a second that the notice was backdated for a purpose. My battles were far from over as you dragged me to the courtroom, wherein a DNA test of the baby proved my innocence. Shruti in turn testified to the DIG and the DM about the whole sequence. I got my job back, my reputation, my family..but not my love. You came rushing to me once the Hon Judge absolved me of all charges. I looked away..just couldn’t relate to you anymore. You gave up on me so easily. The only thing Iasked you is time. I pleaded…I begged…I promised you I will tell all at the right moment. Just a chance to explain everything of what I did and why I did. But you were unrelenting. You just jumped to conclusions, accusing me of things that I wouldn't ever have dreamt of doing..

Sai, our divorce may have been nullified but it brought on a strange revelation to me. Are we even made for each other? Kamal Sir asked me to take care of you and I did. Through a deal called marriage, which was to last till you completed your education. I protected you, cherished you, valued you, gave you a family.. You returned back the same many fold. Our lives got entangled, we started liking each other. I assumed it to be a divine cue. I even dreamt of a future with you. A happy married life, children…But it was not to be. I made enough mistakes: Ajinkya, your accident.. to name a few. I got blamed for them and also penalised. But there was hope…I never gave up on us. I never realized that the whole thing was so fragile that one small storm was enough to sink the ship. My character, my morality, my values were questioned. My own family disowned me. I had assumed that the entire world may misunderstand me, but not you..I was mistaken. There were enough hints that Shruti was nobody to me and the baby was obviously not mine. I assumed that you would dig into this matter. A policeman’s daughter after all!

Today, I am writing this letter, heading out of Nagpur to some undisclosed setting. The previous petition may be quashed but I am initiating a fresh divorce proceeding from my side. It will be by mutual consent. The only thing it requires is complete separation for 18 months. This I plan to achieve by shifting out to some unknown location. Some sort of sabbatical..training maybe. This also coincides with the time you would take to complete your education, after which you would anyway be free from the deal. You are young, with an entire unblemished life ahead. Live it fully, with stars in your eyes and wings for wishes. Be the Dr Kamal Sir wanted you to be. A song is playing on the car radio, apt for my mood as tears threaten to spill over. Chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jaye hum dono..

My lawyer will deliver the notice to you. I have already signed it.

Take care. In case you need anything in life, please approach my lawyer.

Virat Chavan

I am not tagging anybody. For I dont know who would be interested in this one.

When is that os coming up?

Me waitingggggggg

I’m sry I couldn’t relate to this

It’s like he’s blaming her for not trusting him when he’s not trust worthy

He hid enough things from her and is saying about his SAHI WAQT which will never come

Giving d tag of mrs chavan and signing birth certificate of d child of that woman will be right and ur wife questioning u regarding this is wrong

When did sheltering a criminal(naxal) became legal or moral

For him d Vaada given to his sada is more important than d person died for him(kamal Joshi)

Virat is no more a male lead of this show he’s being negative

He is worse than vanraj character

This is wonderful. You pointed out V's feelings quite accurately.

But unfortunately having seen the show and Neil's acting, I cannot relate to this.

And sorry but he is once again accusing her, which doesn't sit well with me. He did ask for time but she was not wrong in the way she behaved from what was presented to her.

Anyway, I don't want to get into an argument with you. It's a wonderful piece of writing and had it been some other actor even with a hint of remorse in his eyes/actions I could have accepted this. Not with Neil.

Hope you are not offended ☺️

I want to believe this, so beautifully written but can't relate to Virat one bit...Shruti as portrayed, is not a witness, whatever Virat is doing is not his job... treating sai like sh*t and giving someone else priority is wrong. They could have salvaged his character showing what all you have written but they failed. It seems Virat's feels changed, he doesn't love Sai anymore...the dream sequence was beautiful though.

Nice work but after whatever Virat has pulled, I won't want this sequence because that would make Sai guilty for no fault of hers.

He took the right of wife from sai, he took the right of a father from sada, He just takes the decision based on his point of view, according to him what he does is always right

Who gave the right to virat to decide sada parental right, Does he realise how painful it is to a father, Other than shruthi he is hurting each and everyone. He is the worst character who does not what to see others point of view it is alway Me Me Me and the Me Me Me has become Meme show now

Yes, he is accusing her of giving up on him a bit too easily. But at the end he is wishing her all the best, and setting her free.

What was presented to her was a huge mistake of his. But she could have done some investigation, hired a pvt detective to find out about these matters..this is just my personal view. Some questions that she could have asked herself is

When was the child conceived?

Why did Shruti say ki bacche ka iss duniya main koi nahi hain?

If that divorce notice was backdated by 1 yr, why did Virat sign as a husband on the consent after her accident? And why was he blamed for the accident?

All I want to say is: first investigate. You have tools today like the DNA test. Just signing birth certificate doesnt mean you have fathered the child. The orphanage I know has the trustee fathering about 100 children in this manner. Find out the facts and then accuse someone. That is, if you want to accuse someone in the court of law.

Again, I say, this is my personal view. I too have stopped watching the show simply because the characters have been butchered beyond all beliefs.

And No, I am not offended. This is a daily soap.

Thanks for the reply.

What you will be served in the serial is going to be worse than this. Believe me.

Absolutely illogical track. Is the DIG a fool? Believing a backdated document..then why did Virat sign as a husband on the consent form after Sai's accident? is that not illegal?

On the Mahabaleshwar track, they registered in the hotel as husband and wife. What was it then?

Forget it. Even they prayed together as husband and wife.

I have stopped watching the serial. I just read Neeraja's updates.

And Virat is accusing Sai as giving up too easily, believing what is presented to her, blindly. Its not her fault and he is not shaming her at all. And in the end he is setting her free, wishing her all the best.
