I don’t this assessment is fair to Pakhi. Just because she got married doesn’t mean that she would automatically forget the situation in which she got married to Samrat. Upar se, her husband went missing the very next day! Before she could get to know him, before she could even think of giving their relationship a chance.
For all intents and purposes, Pakhi is stuck in the past. She is still the woman who fell in love with Virat and it burns her to see him move on when she has no one to move onto.
What she is doing, by interfering in SaiRat’s marriage, is wrong. If she was graceful and a less selfish person, she would leave that house and go back to her own home.
But we can’t call her interference as “cheating on Samrat” when he barely became a part of her life 🤷♀️ How is that even fair?
A marriage is a sacred bond. It takes two people to form that bond. Pakhi only got a wedding; she never got any marriage from Samrat because he just wasn’t there. She may even think he is dead, considering it’s been a crazy long time.
As for Virat, he was in love or infatuated with Pakhi when he made that vaada. He married Sai out of obligation. Just because he did that, doesn’t mean he cheated when he thought of Pakhi and what they had lost later. Just because he circumambulated around a holy fire doesn’t mean that his feelings for his first love will just vanish.
It’s really unfair to glorify a wedding this way. It may be considered a sacred ritual as per Hindu scriptures. But that is only because it’s the coming together of two consensual adults who promise to love and care for each other for seven lifetimes. If that feeling of togetherness itself is missing, then that ritual alone is not enough.
