Hi guys, I am here after ages. Honestly, I didn't watch the show much after the whole hath pakadna and khana nahin doonga fiasco. Then, I saw the Holi promo and holy moly, was I blown away?! It was so good but the way it actually played out was a tad disappointing for me. I felt Virat realising his love/feelings for Sai was very random and abrupt.
I felt it too. I think they rushed it. They wanted to show him getting close to Sai and he might do it, only if he realised his feelings probably. So they rushed it.
Also, if they wanted to show, that he thought about it when he was away, why would they show at the beginning of the episode him asking what his feelings were and that he likes her? Suddenly, in a few minutes he realises he loves her. Bhaang came a little later. He was already telling Sunny, mein dil ki baat batane jaa raha hoon, it cannot be him teling that he likes her alone. He said that the first time and the next time, he started to confess love.
One moment, he thinks that "Kya main Sai ko pasand karne laga hun" and the next moment he goes, "Sai, main tumse pyaar karta hun." Baaki sab toh itna stretch karte hain, they should've stretched Virat's turmoil a bit more.
As you said, would have been nice if they show us a transition of thoughts. I really wanted him to analyse his feelings, they should have shown us that. I felt the turmoil has been there for quite sometime, but they failed to show it. They hardly ever gave him monologues. We could see fighting it, may be they deliberately didn't want to because it was kind of obvious that he was falling for her.
The episode in which Sai asked him, why do you not want me to go Gadchirolli or when she asked him, why does it matter to him, they only showed him saying that he cannot stay without her, "aadat ban gayi ho tum"? Like really? They could have shown him in a few more scenes but by then, he had gone on leave.
His vaada to Dukhi Didi forms a big part of the show. I wish they had shown him struggle between his promise and his burgeoning feelings for Sai.
😆 I too wanted to see that. The whole deal marriage was because of the promise, why couldn't they show his struggle? He fell in love much earlier than he acknowledged, but they could have still shown it sometime.
He should've tried to push her away but also was unable to resist her innocence, goodness and the strong bond of friendship he had formed with her. All this would've been super angsty and interesting to watch.
Would have been a treat to watch. I have a mixed feeling about it. About the pushing her away, it probably never happened, he fell for her naturally with no resistance at all I guess. He never tried to resist and we have been noticing it for a while. He just surrendered to his feelings and that is what they have tried to show, I think.
Now, it seems like the vaada to Dukhi Didi never even crossed his mind (NOT that I am complaining :P)
😆 it didn't actually
The buildup should've been more. The five year deal, Sai's aloofness- all this should've been a part of his internal conflict.
I think only Sai has these conflicts. From the beginning, they showed that he was having feelings for Pakhi, which started to fade away and feelings for Sai started to develop and he never stopped himself to get attached to her, to like her, to fall for her.
And Virat should stop taking Sunny's encouragements so seriously every time he falls in love. Also, Sunny egging on Virat to tell Sai how he feels made me a bit mad, I wanted Virat to come to his own conclusion after much deliberation.
Yeah, though it looked good and was fun to watch, this was the same guy who spoke these when he met Pakhi too. But Sunny did notice change in Virat and could see that he has moved on.
But yes, him coming to conclusion on his own would have been the best. I think, we will get to know it once Sai leaves the house. I just hope they show his realisation then and not ignore thinking they have already shown him confessing his feelings.
Would be good to show him having a flash back as when he started to like her, when he felt he was falling for her.
Khair chodo, jo ho gaya so ho gaya. Desperately waiting for the DevKit track to end, it's been two freaking months!
😒
