I would say that Stockholm syndrome is not the right word for Sai's feelings for Virat. You all are saying that Sai had no choice but to fall in love with her abuser Virat. This was the same Sai who humiliated Virat and his family in front of their neighbors and left them. When Virat apologized to her and asked her to come back she refused to come. She did come back few days later but only to take care of Virat after he was shot and then leave him again. She was ready to leave Virat again but stayed back only after Virat's reassurance.
This is just a small example. What I'm trying to say is Sai is not that type of a person who can fall in love with her abuser because she has no choice. I know the makers have butchered Virat so much that we all have forgotten his good sides as well as all those happy moments of Sairat. Sai had her good, happy and enjoyable moments with Virat too and that was when she had fallen in love with him. She appreciated him when she saw his good side and band bajaoed him when she saw his bad side. I guess during the college competition track and MiMo track she was genuinely happy with him. These two phases were the only two happy phases of their lives where they enjoyed each and every moment together. Sai has always proved she can never live in a toxic relationship no matter what. Post Shruti track she tried to make her marriage work but after a certain point of time gave up when she saw no signs from Virat to spend his life with her. If Virat had rejected her love due to anger after she confessed in front of the entire world she would have surely left him again.
I'm so sorry dear but Sai isn't a type of person who will take abuse isn't a save you think it is
Alot of times vitcms in domestic abusive relationship don't even realize that they are being abused
& being stuck in a abusive relationship doesn't mean that person is weak
What you think an abusive relationship is
A abusive relationship can have normal happy moments too
But with those normal happy moments there is emotional manipulation, emotional abuse , disrespectful behavior, humiliation on daily basis
Virat is a perfect example of an abusive man
He will abuse , violet Sai , disrespect her shout at her sometimes even manhandle her and when she would try to leave he would gaslight her that she is making a scene
Apologies act good for 2 days and then will go back to behaving to his orginals self that is abusive
Be abusive act apologetic then again be abusive and apologize
rinse, repeat
cycle of abuse
