Yes, that he went straight to her was significant, and for the reason stated by you Vaishali, that's my perception too, but whether he knew of her sitting outside was left too vague yesterday, and hence open to interpretation.
When CVs leave too much unstated, we will fill the gaps our own way, and this did he, didn't he, is part of the excitement of any good literary work.
But I was actually glad to see today that he didn't know of her sitting outside, or at least that's what it looks like.
For me a Saras, so consumed with his own self, that he would consciously let Kumud sit outside his door, was not matching his character, so I am actually happy that it played out the way it did. This was more Saras like.
