What has happened with V's characterization is not a sudden thing. It is a long time coming. Its just that many of us as audience for varying lenths of time tried to think of his redemption, improvement, pov etc. But really for a very long time he has had no arc. Post Sam entry itself it was downhill but it was tolerable due to Sam. Mimo was breath of fresh air. But then Shruti track onwards it was more steady decline in character, actor both. Again because confession was due people forgave and overlooked it. But confession lasted all of 2 episodes and new kaand was on. They tried to show V as "supportive" but really he wasnt and several of us saw through the facade. There was barely any intimacy, conversation all through career bahu kaand, Sai arrest, JM return, Sai pregnancy, Sam death, Sai miscarriage, surrogacy decision. All through it, Sai was fighting and Ayesha was carrying the scenes but there were barely any good Sai-V scenes. It was all poorly performed by NB.. And then surrogacy onwards nonstop downward spiral save like 2-3 moments- like godhbharai dressing up scene, some dream moments. But those were isolated scenes but overall context wise V was unforgivable and pathetic. And then with pp pardafaash , he did lipservice and apology naatak for a day before flipping and more spiraling down.
Post leap again they tried a fake stunt of V looking all grief ridden for one puja scene but really in that scene, pp is doing all wife duties, V is allowing it and both are color coordinated also which did not happen even in Sai-V time. So the writing was clear on the wall.
The pattern is obvious. Essentially every decent Sai-V scene that people tried to see as "hope" generating was all a sham and a lollipop.
The background game plan has been a continuous trend towards killing the Sairat buzz and shoving more and more V-PP and its obvious that this decision is not purely " creative". It has been 100% influenced by the unprofessional actors in question. They are all in cahoots n there is clearly bts politics. they were arrogant that TRP is stable so they have been step by step ruining the show with the confidence that TRP will stay steady. They have figured a formula. Show enough Sai scenes where she appears to be "upper hand", give Sai with kids, Sai-Jaggu etc. And then suddenly spin it into Sai bashing, Sai blame, Sai heartbreak and V-PP and chavannis winning/toxicity. This formula keeps audience hoping that ok, now things will be better for Sai but really it never is. And all of this extra V-PP cringe 100 % benefits the couple because they are petty enough to just want SS together. They know they are not gonna be accepted as such so they are trying all the tricks to still get SS and even kinda parallel Sai-V moments for V-PP. They dont care about negative publicity because at this point trying to potray themselves as positive, collegial, genuine people will really not work. No sane person will buy it . So they are cashing on the negative publicity itself. Because at this point show is getting close to ending.... How many more months of parenthood can they show. After a point the children have to grow up and Sai-V cant be shown playing parents to fully grown teenagers/college going kids because even makeup cant justify that casting.
So this is the final hurrah for unprofessional people to further their agenda before the shop shuts.
Even now there's one way to salvage plot imo. Here is what should happen - make Sai win for real- make her get V, pp, chavannis all arrested, publicly humiliated and give V divorce by caing him out as Cheater, bigamist, emotionally abusive. Make her figure out Vinu is biologically hers and get sole custody of Vinu and Savi. All the CN folks, V, pp can all be phased out for good. Kahaan gaye, kua hua- immaterial just like in Imlie show. Then get a new ML for couple of episodes to show Sai -kids moving on and finding a good partner/Father figure respectively or show solo journey for a couple of episodes. Then kill off Sai/new ML or show a happy ending OR take leap to show solo journey of Savi (played by Ayesha) with brand new cast/crew or shut down altogether. I'd love to see Ayesha in police /action avatar next in the sequel. They can also do gen leap to show Savi- Vinu bro+sis jodi and their respective parallel stories.
