Np yaar. this is my opinion of him and from original KD character of Rono.
He is protecting her honor stil...initially because he had a soft corner and also was responsible for her plight. He didnt know her vileness. Slowly he knew her intentions but doesnt speak against her, because she is his brother's wife. Some people just have positive outlook. Virat is one of them..he still thinks she could move on, just that she did not get a chance. What pakhi spoke in cafe is so dishonorable. he would not let that in front the family. He protects her, as a woman, as his brother's wife. In KD, he was more explicit when he cleared his stance on cafe incident that it is upto samrat and pakhi to decide about their marriage. Thats how detached he is to her personally. But not at humane level which I really like about him. He puts his/Sai's happiness at the cost of a woman's honor. He does that with Sruthi too. Whether it is right or wrong is debatable. As a husband, it is wrong. As a police officer and duty minded person he might get some support there. Seeing him just as Sai's husband, doesnt do justice to his whole character is what I believe.
With Sai, he is sure of what she means to him. He is confident that he can be a good husband. What he does with Sai, is due to his lack of assertion of her status in his life, partly I still believe that he wants to give her a chance to choose. I dont believe he cant explicitly tell his love for her, if not for this only reason. He is confident about his love and his stand for his wife. He thinks she doesnt understand him well to appreciate his efforts. Thats why the frustration. Now coming to him not able to shut up Pakhi in front of Sai, is mostly due to the situations. Pakhi comes in between when they fight to add fuel. He might be staying silent or agree with pakhi, because most of the time Pakhi uses reverse psychology and sympathises with him. THIS IS HIS MISTAKE, to fall for Pakhi's words. Going forward also, he will never say anything against her in front of his family, mostly because she is his brother's wife. He shuts up Sai, because she is his wife, that too if Sai behaves arrogant. He did not stop her when She was standing up for Shivani, or her own studies or for mohit or for anyother good reason. He did stop her when she wants to meet Amay, or talked rudely to family members which he thought would go against her. Sorry I could not recollect all these scenes but just summarizing few events.
In short, I believe his mistake is to stay mum when Pakhi comes between him and Sai during their fights. Because it fed Sai's insecurities. Not shutting her up in front of family, is none of his business. Samrat is there for it. Just wait for confession to happen, he says Sai directly how he lost respect for Pakhi. Not shutting her up publicly doesnt mean he has soft spot for her, he is just adhering to family rules. As a husband, he assumes the right to correct Sai. And I also believe husband and wife SHOULD correct each other. Sai according to him, has to tone down a bit so he corrects her. He also knows otherwise that Sai is a better human being, 24 carat gold hearted.
His worst acts with Sai, I attribute to his frustration and are situational. All 3 times..PD ousting due to lack of trust, Ajinkya due to jealousy and the recent one due to his own heartbreak. All 3 places he acted selfish in his love which is very human. All 3 are not normal situations either. In a regular life of wife and husband, how many times such situations will occur? And if they occur, and if both are in love will they result in same consequences as before? Hence I would advice Sai to wait and give him chances till they build love and trust, if at all she comes to me for advice :P
