Sara and Saesha then hug each other and end the heated argument. Saisha then tells Sara, “I am just going to be stone-cold. I don’t want these accusations of going softer towards the orange team.”
Saisha then shares with Sara that she has feelings for Munawar Faruqui.
“I don’t know why but I am having a soft spot for Munawar.” Sara asks, “You have?” To which Saisha responded, “I do. I am just feeling for him. If I take a decision keeping him in mind then it’s not my fault because I know that is only going to be one way, it’s never going to be two-way.”
Sara said, “Right. Yes, it’s never going to be two-way.”
Sara then asked Saisha if Munawar is aware of her feelings. Saisha replied, “No, nobody knows. No one can know and nobody should know.”
Sara called it “cute and adorable” but Saisha cried and said, “No, it’s painful because I know there is nothing.”
Sara then tells Saisha, “I am your friend and I am telling you that it will never happen.”

Sharing a similar experience, Saisha Shinde said she too was a victim of mental abuse.
“Even I was abused in a relationship but it wasn’t physical, it was mental abuse on another level. He made me feel like I am sht. He used to stand outside my door and just wait thinking that someone will come and I’ll cheat on him,” she said.

“And, let’s say if I cheat on him, he’ll catch me red-handed and he will use it against me. He used to climb on the terrace, go on the pipeline, stand on the pipeline, open the blinders of the bathroom and see slowly if I am mast*, to use that against me,” she added.

Payal Rohatgi asked Saisha, “Why can’t you mast*****?” To this, she replied, “Because that’s the reason then that I don’t want to have sx with him. Back then, I thought maybe he was saying the right thing but I was never happy in there.”

“Physically, I was never happy at all. I used to always wonder, ‘kya mujhe samajh hi nahin aa raha hai’ because I was a woman inside who was having s*x with a gay man. Obviously, something was wrong but I told myself that I am gay only.”
