I want to start from where he shut the door and screamed that his and Sai relationship is over.. He knew Sai is there and hence he kept on screaming to maker her hear as well.. His expressions where he showed the anger and the brink of just breaking down there while he kept on mentioning how Sai is just a bura sapna for them was marvellously done. Even after knowing what an AH he as been , you knew its breaking your heart as well.. Credit to the actor and not the character here.
Coming to the scene in the room , him getting those flashbacks was disheartening to see. I know right at this moment he thinks Sai was leading him on, was planning the whole time while he was trying to seal another stamp of love on their so called deal marriage. Yes right now he does think she does not value this marriage and he is definitely right if I look at it from Virat's point of view. No I am not trying to justify his act. He needs to wear that maala of his old shoes and sit in his office the whole day. Because more than anything like Sai mentioned, ACP VIrat Chavhan failed today.
Coming back to the scene he was trying to caress the blanket, as if they still have the feel of Sai from the morning. And then the moment he had his eyes on the plant, where he could have analysed Sai's feelings for him, Pathharlekha didi entered. Now this is one of the few scenes of them that I watched completely , probably because I had read Neerja's post in the morning and I am thankful to her that I did not skip the scene.. That torchure of expressionless face was awarded in the form of Virat's outrage.Pattarlekha has some serious registering issues, she does not understand simple words. Acha chalo kuch aur baatein karte hain and then jump back to the same person , who he has strictly told before and now as well to not discuss about. Even though the actor lacks expressing skills, the dialogues were written perfectly to show what she was trying to do here when she mentioned how he might not eat because of what happened and the taunt that kind kind of was understood by Virat when she mentioned how if she would have apologised by now you would be feeding her food "apne haathon se". He was losing it there itself. Nicely portrayed by Neil again.
I was extremely appalled at the way she went on and about Aswhini Aai and Virat's mother, extremely shameful and venomous. I get it why she did that, she knows Ashwini is the only one who can somehow influence Virat's decisions w.r.t Sai and she was trying to put a halt to any such possibility. Yet again her words that she does it because indirectly she uses Sai to dishonour the elders, comes from the fact that Virat had said the same for Aai. She has the audacity to speak those words, because she has heard Virat doing the same to his mother. That's why I believe he needs to stop talking like that especially to his mother in front of so many people. And he needs to aggressively stop Pattharlekha didi as well when she talks nonsense about his Aai and wife. The first part has been executed and I am happy , I did not have to wait that long. She needed it, she cannot take so much liberty in his life to talk nonsense about his mother. Thats where Virat also need to differentiate between Sai and Pattharlekha in his mind, how the former one reprimanded him from misbehaving his word and how the latter used the same words (that he was reprimanded for) against his aai to instigate him against Aai. Pattharlekha's hatred towards Sai has turned so venomous that she forgets that she is mother to the man she claims to love in her mind. Also should question her maturity and experience in life when she comes up with questions like ek hi ghar k log alag alag kaise ho sakte hain.. I am happy he said , isme sochne wali kya baat hai (IDIOT of highest degree).
I dont like him depending on the ladies of the house to get his food.. You f**ing grown up man child please go and fetch your own food. PLease for god's sake. you can do it, just try at once. Sorry for my rant here, but I have grown up in a house, where we sisters and brothers served our own food, served each others food , cleaned our own utensils and each others as well. So I hate when they show Virat depending on someone to get his food.
Anyway coming to this part of the episode which I liked a lot, apart from how Sai mentioned, she needs no taras(Go my girl). Pattarlekha wants to wipe out her memory of Sairat feeding each other , by sitting on the same bed and feeding and getting fed by Virat. She has springs in her steps since now she thinks Virat would be hers and with Samrat not in picture no one can stop them from getting close to each other . I wish the actor was good, the scenes would have been much more impactful. Anyway so Virat's reaction to her not eating food was not at all a concern, it was a reaction of being threatened to what she is trying to do here.. He had clearly told her to not wait for him even when Sai was there..
He realised what is to come if he allows this. She is treading beyond the rekha and she needs to be stopped. He realised as a husband to another woman and as a brother to the man who is this woman's husband he needs to put a STOP here and thats why his strict and desperate call that they would not have the food here and also maintained how having food in this room was only allowed for him with his wife. Yet again Pattharlekha failed expressing and I was confused on what she thought or felt when he mentioned that.
Since this was my views on Virat , I would limit it to him. Sai was the hero of the episode for me today, however Neil was exceptionally well as Virat today.
Special applaud to this guy for bringing that level of aggression towards the person who he is in love with in reality, as a part of a scene. Its difficult , I know that.
Edited : Today was not that day , where he should have expected his bhabhi or his aai to get him his food. Other days I understand .. It was a "too much to process" day for everyone and specially his Aai . So she could have been left today. Also the tone in which he said, ya toh tum mera khana lao ya main aai ko bolun was something I did not like. The women in CN are not treated equally even by Virat and somehwere we all know that and yet tend to ignore when we are in love with him. I am guilty of doing that as well. Anyway I have written a lot on Virat other than the food today and I dont wish this thread to be all about those lines..I apologise to whosoever I have hurt , questioned the love they share with their mothers and bhabhis heartily,. My intention was not question the pamper and love we seek for when we ask them to get our food. It to me did not look like for Virat today was that day to seek that love. And also Patralekha is not the one from who he seeks that pamper and love, that I am very sure off. Hence question on his words to Patralekha. Thats it.
I have appreciated his scene where he was fed by his Aai and their conversation and chemistry there. And I also demand for more such scene.. I am also looking for some disheartening and heartening scenes between the two, they share a great chemsitry.
