Hello people ! My day started a little late today- par every bit of today’s episode was worth waking up to ..
- Virat and Sai’s confession of love : Virat is still stuck on why she left him, when they both got married at their own will. Yes still oblivious to his subsequent actions- where he only wants to remember happy times and moments with Sai, he only remembers the impact her leaving him and going causes. Him saying love is never adhoora, pyaar apne aap main mukammal hota hai - vows to show their love never changed over the years and the confidence with which he says even you love me, but fail to show it - is heart tugging ! He only wants to be with her, at all levels of consciousness before he slips into deep slumber - Sai also admits why she has been holding back ! But the way Virat holds her around her head - and pulls her closer - deserves a chumma 😘.. there is so much softness even in his subconscious actions, he doesn’t want to let go. That photograph - which acts as a reality check for Sai - as she is almost about to give in- she clearly says- I won’t express my feelings because the love you want has someone else’s name written on it- mind you she doesn’t say Haq- she says naam ! So Naam is of the rishta and the maryada is comes with - in her head she is also aware of the love Virat has for her, but there is only so far they can go given the status of myriad emotions and relations around them ! Well played Sai! An episode full of Sairat - at the cost of burnt karanjis was totally worth it.
-the entry of Pakhi, gave me such a déjà vu ..though she has been living in the room for years now - when she walked in she still looked like the third person, who had come to intrude Sai and Virat like always - since she couldn’t do anything she simply resorted to bitter words as always to overcome her internal jealousy and failure to make a place in Virat’s life. Every word she uttered was spoken out of her delusional belief that atleast marriage or a legal sanction would give her everything she wanted from her dream relationship with Virat- but years later she found herself standing right there- where she belonged from day 1, outside Virat and Sai’s bedroom while they were building their own dream life. It seemed like all the years around him seemed inconsequential. When she uses the word “uss bistar par jahan hum pati patni ki tarah sote hai” is so ironic and sad ! Because even reaching that point she is still standing away from the man she loves and can’t get him-and then she gets a dignified shutting up from Sai who chooses not to dignify her accusations with an explanation but clearly shows her where she should now draw the line. For a moment when Sai sees Pakhi walk into the bedroom she feels bad for her situation, because she knows no woman deserves this from her husband or partner, but then Pakhi who has already taken her path to self destruction makes her life harder with her insecurities and slandering - and then the final icing on the cake - for all the things that she accuses Sai of, the man lying there in front of her on “their” so called bed- is uttering Sai’s name continuously .. giving her an answer to her own questions she had posed to Sai a while ago ! It is interesting to see Virat sleeping on the side slept - while he was with her - but while he is with PL he slept on the side Sai slept, while they were fighting - showing in his head this room always belonged to Sai and him, whether it was by remembering her or by being with her! (Or the last part is just easier framing wise when you walk into a room - and I’m thinking too much - par hum fan log kuch bhi soch lete hai, which is okay 🤪)
- PL’s todh-phod scene also felt very symbolic to me- while Sai knowing Virat’s mental state ensured she would not be harsh or rude with him, even while they are not officially together , and he has hurt her so much, she tucks him sweetly into bed, ensures he is well- while PL who claims to be his legal wife, a woman who loves him so much and can’t do without him and will be with him in whichever condition, chooses to first create a ruckus and drama first next to the table around him, by breaking things, pulling away the blanket that would have comforted him, and then breaking everything - totally unbothered that it could wake him up or disturb him. This clearly shows - yet again for the millionth time - she is more worried about how she feels about being around Virat- and how she expects him to act, rather than be what he wants or do what he loves! That’s why her tears hold no value and her breaking her marriage photos and frames clearly give a feeling of hope to us audience that it might now lead to the revival of Sairat and there is no scope for any sympathy for PL.
- Sai yeh kounsa phone use karti hai bhai , jiske camera main photo real person se zyada bright dikhta hai , the rakh is so light in real but on the camera it’s so dark and distinct ! 😂😂😂 but chalo maaf kiya ! Dhamaka hone waala hai suddenly sounded so ironic - given what happened to the set after that .
-Glad everyone is happy and safe but looking at those pictures is heart breaking. But such is the life in TV, you cry, you get shocked, you see death, tragedy or you deal with losses and pain, you wake up the next day to go back and shoot again.
-Precap : will hold more significance if Sai gets injured badly after saving Vinu because it is only then that he will realise doctor aunty cares for him. If both of them come out safe I don’t think a little child can process the layers of her actions, and immediately turn to her !
