Thats precisely the point. V is not some random guy in her life. She invested a LOT in the relationship. She loved him. Her whole world revolved around him. He was her everything. She has 2 kids with the man. She was a different person before marriage and now shes different. It is much easier for her or anyone to revolt or speak up for a stranger but harder to speak for herself. When someone at the tender age of 18 is orphaned and she finds people like V and CN as her "family", its incredibly tough. When she didn't know them she could be a brash teenager. With every passing day she realized that they were her official "family" and she'd have to get used to them. They also manipulated her. Constantly hearing about how she's stubborn, she's problematic impacted her personality and the result is a mellowed down Sai. She now weighs her words. As a single mother with limited finances and no support she's really not in the frame of mind to wager a war like she should. Her priority is just to find peace and make sure her children are protected from the harsh truth. She doesn't want the bitterness of her past to affect them. She also has realized that some comflicts are useless. She has spent her time away from V wondering about all the "what-ifs". Now she has to factor in both kids. What she wants to do is to take both her kids and go far away from Vs reach and live peacefully but she can't. She's doing her best in the circumstances to hold onto as much as she can. She has threatened V with consequences but she knows the truth - the man is a DCP. Bk is MLA. Nothing will ever come out of her threats to him. Rather they will out of spite make her life harder like they always have. P had filed fake court case. Next BK, V will do some nonsense. She doesn't have the bandwidth to handle more pointless conflicts. Yet she doesn't back off. She does speak up. When she was locked she did what Sai Joshi at 18 would have done- climb down the window. When she is being forced to marry, she has categorically refused over and over again not giving into manipulation.
Thats why I think its unfair to claim that she is "fine" with the abuse. As an audience, i also feel she should take legal action or slap him. But its not so easy to do so. How/what will she explain to the kids about why she's getting V arrested? If she tells them the truth, how will it impact them... She has to factor in SO much. And she's honestly tired of fighting. Her body language reeks of it. And her exhaustion is understandable. She was trying to find a compromise where everyone could just live peacefully. And thats practical. But V is such a douche , he wont let that happen.
Forgiveness isnt forgetting. Shes not forgiving V for him, but for herself. Because hanging on to the bitterness is affecting her mental health.
Anything she has tolerated has only been for kids sake. If she was a single woman with no kids, her reactions would have been different.
She cant change the fact that she got habituated and attached to V and loved him. She had him in her life as husband at a time when she was vulnerable and she loved him. She can't turn that off. But she does know what she wants and does not want. Shes clear that being with him is not an option. Thats more than most women would do in het situation. Many people will feel the need to compromise just for kids sake. But she's trying to find a middle ground where kids get their parents but separately, not as spouses. She hasn't accepted his half assed apology and proposal and his outburst today accusing her, CAing her has now made her even more certain that she shouldn't go back to him.
I would maintain she is used to it and does not get offended with it anymore..Her issue was never his abuse, but being dusro aurat. She had enough chance to let him know that his abusive nature is an issue, that he is not a good person..Also its wrong on her part, to let a colleague be physically harmed and do nothing about it, twice, by someone she has "issues" with. The colleague is being nice does not mean that you do nothing about it just because you are " majboor" .
Vulnerability k naam pr not everything can be justified. She has been reduced to a vulnerable woman, who just gives khokhli dhamkis, not even her dhamkis are worth watching anymore, given how strong and powerful her character was..Given how she fought against injustice..This is the same woman who wanted to leave the house because he forcefully held her hands... Sai can be justified for everything but not for constantly taking in all the abuse and still giving heart eyes to this man, because of he was her first love and husband "once".
There is a famous saying, in Geeta , "anyay karne se jiyada anyay sehna paap hai".
Also I am not in support of her letting her child believe the father is good, she herself believes the father is a good after, after him locking a small child with her in a room..what is she teaching Sai that Papa can lock them in a room kyuki game chal raha hai? The child should know that her father is not a good human being, rather we get her saying, Virat bahut ache pita hain ...we get oh i don't want to be another woman and not oh i don't want to get back to an abusive and harassing husband.
I am sorry i get your love for Sai and attachment as well. i do see that you understand her the most probably..but what's wrong is wrong!!
