Excellent update. I loved the way you pointed out the difference between Chavans and Adhikaris.
I skipped a large part of the episode becaise of the toxic CN drama. BK is such a snake. Till the time Patralekha was useful to her, she kept on supporting all the criminal things done by the former. Now that she's khokhless and hence useless (Chavannis logic) BK suddenly realized Virat's love for Sai. Virat has been in love with Sai before leap too. That didn't stop BK and co. from harassing Sai at every point. Suddenly itna pyaar aa raha hai Sai par because Patralekha is useless, not because they accepted Sai completely.
And Chavannis are respected people only according to them. People are very much aware of their toxicity and regressive behavior. Some women were trolling them during holika for their twisted relationships. And also the kaands that happen in their household all the time.
Adhikaris are, on the other hand, self made people who stood up for their rights and refused to take all the shit society threw at them. They valued humanity over blood relationships and are actually much more respectable than criminal Chavans. Sai will be loved and respected and treated well at Adhikari household. She won't be name-called, abused and treated like dirt there. She'll have her own voice and her opinions will be valued and respected.
Also hypocrisy of society is evident in this very forum. There are many who shade Adhikari women for being lavani dancers and at the same time support criminal Chavannis. The toxic ingrained patriarchy is very evident in such people's posts.
