Okay, so, I watched some scenes, and the reason I am pointing this out is to tell you that I might make few errors here and there due to lack of complete knowledge. So, please correct me if I am wrong.
From what I have seen, till now, it isn't too bad. I mean, there wasn't anything really bad in today's episode. Yes, it all can be a little frustrating. But, if we can just...ignore...Virat’s betrayal to his own duty, then as far as SaiRat are concerned, today's episode didn't show anything extreme. Virat was behaving a bit differently, but not too much, and that bits could have been because he is really stressed and tired, and as for the precap, I felt that everything that he will do now which might confuse Sai would be done in the course of hiding everything from her, because of course, she couldn't be told anything about Shruti or Sada. Noticed how I used the word confuse and not hurt? Because I really wish that this is how the makers show it. I want makers to show Virat acting normally, as normally as he could, and Sai noticing the little differences and getting confused and skeptic. Not Virat crossing the line and yelling or hurting Sai just to keep Shruti safe, which is precisely what I am saying hasn't happened till now.
The reason I am saying this is not because Virat is right, or that this track isn't bad, it's because I have read many posts, and not just here, about how bad this track will get, and till now, it is wrong but not extremely wrong. By extremely I mean that Virat hasn't been unnecessarily rude to Sai or anything. He is just hiding things, which is the only part that I found was reasonable in the entire track.
But then again, this was just one episode, so idk, there are a hundred ways in which this can go wrong and knowing the makers, I am pretty sure it will.
