Ok I think we differ drastically on V-P dynamics. 😃 I understand where you are coming from. I too loathe Virat's muteness and unwanted kindness shown to her, especially because Sai is getting effected too much. But the same Virat did stood by Sai during entire birthday episode, he completely lost it on Pakhi. (Dont say it is because his birthday plans will get spoiled) He was worried Pakhi is taking it on Sai physically. On the very night, he shut pakhi up, independent of how Sai responded to him. Yes I agree, the instances are less, and only when they aggravate too much. But what I want you to look at is his responses to her privately. He was always curt in his reponses. Yes he falls back to behaving like normal with her in front of people. Which is very annoying. He becomes too chivalrous to save her honor. Which is not needed. May be Sai is getting confused with this same behavior. What I am saying is, he is making this mistake but it is forced response towards her, not natural one. Natural one is when they are alone. He loathes her. He has no respect for her. He is just bearing her.
The ganging up with Pakhi to insult Sai is not deliberate too. In the sense he is not wantedly siding with Pakhi, knowing that Sai will hurt. When Pakhi uses reverse psychology in front of them saying sai is not understanding him, he agrees to that truth!.
Can Pakhi dare to call his love as brotherly love in front of them, NO..who knows he would slap her. She will never utter any words in front of them that really puts off Virat or she gets exposed. It is pakhi's manipulativeness that forces him to react to her in a favorable way in front of Sai. HE IS AS MUCH VICTIM TO PAKHI AS SAI. He just could not read her.
I would like to disagree here and wait for the moment he flips. He already flipped, just that he is not showing openly.
Thanks for your patient replies. I agree to all the points about his behavior expect this. Please think in this way and see if it makes sense
About Birthday, It took him to hurt Sai physically to be angry on her and not the normal abuse and verbal harassment that she is meted on by Pakhi..That was the least he should be doing there...And next day, He went on to apologise for organizing Sai's birthday, since that made Pakhi upset..What was the point there again?
See nothing is deliberate, but then is harmful and not right.. He should be the first one to understand insecurities since he was insecure at the mention of a boy's name from his wife. He could not even believe Sai when she spoke about being just friends with Aniket... And he fails to see what his indulgence with Pakhi does to her, what him comparing her with Pakhi does to her, what him reprimanding her for talking brashly with Pakhi, while she continues to insult her does to her.. And after all this he complains that Sai does not understand him..and that too Sai does not even know what she speaks about her to Virat, how much she hates her, she does not know Virat knows she hates her... Even today he sat with the woman who called Sai a Grahan in her life, to hear her talk nonsense about Sai when she is on her death bed, and also discuss Sai does not understand him...All this when she is dying...what would she do when she is fit and fine?
@bold But pakhi can call Sai to be khudgarz and a manipulative woman who plays with Devi's mind and he would agree.. Calling brotherly love is anyway atrocious..
