At the outset... I liked the episode.
The show is very pessimistic but episodes like this makes them bearable.
First of all thank God for Pulkit. Kisi ko to Sai ki kadar hai. And it's good that Devi listened to him.
I have always felt that what Sai misses is a female voice who can guide her.
She is a motherless child, grownup entirely with her Aaba. She has not seen a husband wife relationship. Ofcourse there was Usha Mavshi but no guidance like a mother would provide to her daughter. About how to deal with family dynamics, how to be diplomatic, which is required especially when it's a joint family kind off setup. Nothing wrong about it.. it's just how to decide where and how to react. In the absence of this, Sai comes across as muhfat. UM did guide her in initial episodes but then they skipped her character.
Ashwini gave her the love, but not this seekh. If anything she stood silently when Sai fought those battles. đ
Devi and Shivani were the other two bonds that Sai formed that could have guided her.
I am glad one is on the mend. And it's better it's Devi.
The episode focused on the love realisation. Again this needs a female voice of a friend, which she didn't have in GC. Nor a mother could have explained this to her.
Sai was the catalyst for Pulkit-Devi patch up and marriage, so she knows the depth of their feelings. She understands the emotions that come through it and therefore when Devi explains it to her, she understood.
I liked her realisation. Felt very natural and organic. All her memories are of MiMo track, where effectively she had understood that Pakhi is out of picture. So the memories she remembers are those where they had forged a new bond between themselves. It's a good sign. Subconsciously Pakhi is not there.
As for the precap, I feel it is Devi who brings V to the terrace. She had asked Sai to close her eyes and then the scene cuts. V is in his night clothes. And Devi is the only person he listens to now. So he will come if she asks.
To me it's a real confession, not a dream but V will not reciprocate. He will give some crap, some mixed signals. Which is where the other precap may come into picture. Sai reading the horoscope in morning.
Why she would go after him even after he rejects coz according to her he is just rootha hua... Also Devi might push her... Ki vo man jayega etc
I feel this confession is a groundwork for future kaand that Pakhi is planning... Either V will remember this and support her or he will not reciprocate but others might feed him wrong info (like someone mentioned Sai having an affair) etc. Depending upon how long they plan to stretch it... It could end quickly with a patchup on Holi or a new MU/fake pregnancy.
My only request to Vankar... Aise episodes Sat ko kyun nahi dete... Why do they always end the week with sad episodes?
