I didnt watch the episode but could not wait to see SaiRat fight so watched the clips on insta. So my review might not be detailed scene to scene. I have not read any other comments so it is unbiased :)
I loved the fight or rather confrontation. I was waiting for this between them. Because only a husband and wife could say things that might otherwise be uncomfortable to bring up.
I liked how Sai clearly pointed out to Virat and explained what could have transpired on surrogacy day. Virat obviously cant believe that Pakhi, who is a mere Chavan bahu could pull off such a stunt! Fair enough point. But just like he has prejudice for Pakhi, he has prejudice against Sai that she sees Pakhi with hatred. I am glad he voiced out the explanation he had that Sai sees Pakhi with their past! That is the mistake he makes in understanding Sai. Sai doesnt mix up things. Not after she gets clarity. She was accusing him of having feelings for Pakhi when she did not understand his love! Once she got the clarification, and faced a debacle with Sruth, she understood what her place is in Virat's life. Virat doesnt realize this.
And Sai rightly gets upset that he understood her SOOO wrong. Yes he did. He reduced Sai to a wife who is jealous about his ex flame. He is not seeing an intelligent woman who is trying to help him figure out the truth.
The best dialogue from the episode is her saying that "Virat will responsible if something happened to her child". This is exactly what Sai says in my OS too(to be updated). Because when a responsible person makes a mistake, that too knowingly it will have adverse effects. He succumbed to pressure, I agree. But he should not have gone ahead with Pakhi because it is against the rules and it involved health and wellness of two lives. If anything happens to Pakhi or the child, Virat will be more responsible than Pakhi. Because Pakhi is there to ruin everything, she doesnt care. Virat is the person who is expected to set things right! And the person who had the power to say NO. If it is petty fight or theft, Virat failing in standing up can be excused. Here the health and wellness for two people will be at stake.
NO one will tell him this truth. Only his wife can! And she did. Thats the beauty of this relationship. Age doesnt matter, experience doenst matter...but the trust on each other's judgement and sharing the view points is crucial. This episode brings that well.
People can say Virat had the last chance of saving their child. I empathize with him, but I cant agree with what he has done. It was selfish, on his part to let Pakhi be the surrogate. It is not even the softcorner for her that developed after her sob story in the police station, it is just the fact that she will stay close to them and they could be ensured of his child's safety. He was selfish and he forgot to be the man he had been with Sruthi. He saved two lives there putting everything at stake and here he risked two lives only to get a child that will complete his life with Sai.
I know, in real world people succumb to situations especially when you have seen death in the family...But a mistake is mistake. And someone has to confront it and tell clearly what is at stake and Sai did that today with her husband. I hope he sees and understands what Sai said.
PS: In my OS, I made Sai even harsher with Virat, so he comes to his senses.
PPS: Neil and Ayesha both were fabulous today with their acting chops. The fights are treat to watch. She yelling and he cool as cucumber...a sight to behold
Beautiful. I just loved the way you described the beauty of relationship and especially the part where 'virat reduced him to a wife who's jealous and not an intelligent woman'. BEAUTIFUL👏❤️
