If V loved only Sai he'd have respected the sanctity of the bond of marriage with her even after her death by not letting any circumstances, compulsions, manipulations get in the way of it. A marriage or any sort of obligation towards pp in a capacity of family, friend is absolutely ridiculous and uncalled for when she's a big reason that Sai is dead! Period.
So all this soul V emotional talk doesn't negate what real V has done.
If only he had really behaved the way he claims he feels in the soul talk. If only he had been in devdas mode burying himself in work, punishing pp/CN and himself all for Sai going so that we could sympathize with him.
More than pp, he looks like the one with a psychiatric illness. One version which is inside him that supposedly is vrazy in love with Sai and one version he displays which is the stark opposite
Also if we are comparing suffering scales , Sai's is greater. She had hope that he'd come looking for her but everyday he crushed it. Iss seh accha hai to have no hope! And she has his last words still echoing in her ears. He picked pp over her and ended their marriage even before the separation. The separation only strengthened that belief. Sai leaving was a culmination of existing suffering for months! Miscarriage+ infertility+ guilt of that+ watching V distance himself+ V making PP surrogate+ V spending time with pp by telling Sai to stay away+ V literally snatching her baby (BIGGEST trigger!) And handing it to pp + V bailing a criminal and asking her to live in that house + ALL the Chavans amplifying this all by being against her. Throughout those months not one person stepped up. Not Ashwini, ninad, shivani. Nobody spoke up against the injustice. Nobody prevented it from happening.
So if we start comparing suffering scales, then Sai >>> V.
Whats worse - knowing your partner is dead but also loved you immensely or feeling like everything you ever felt and knew was a sham, the whole relationship was a lie and you are doubting everything - your existence, your choices, your decisions, yourself. Imagine all this as a pregnant person with a complicated miracle pregnancy but also the grief of losing her child Vinu and the survivor guilt of that.
So no ,its not as simple as Sai was hopeful while V was hopeless.
Sai had her hopes crushed over and over and over again. She kept on giving him chances. Even after walking out and accident, she was giving him a chance to show her that their relationship would survive but he assumed her dead all too easily.
And Sai has had to rebuild a life from scratch in a new place all alone! Shes freshly minted doctor, inexperienced and has had to also work on the professional front (although that aspect due to ghkkpm makers is a joke in tne potrayal! ) In a rural limited resource area, a doctor is a precious commodity who has to wear many hats!
And now he's the one that has a full family + new family too. Whereas Sai is a single parent with one useless caretaker and one ex-criminal watchman from a distance. Villagers adore and respect her - but thats been a struggle. And until she sees them really go out of the way for her, that love doesn't compensate her loneliness, her dejectedness
