Between the lines of the story.

Hey guys,
Just wanted to clarify some things out to the people who are still in a doubt. After coming across the same questions about the track, I thought that I should write this. And I think, it is my duty to clarify this thing as I have watched Fatmagul, and I am an ardent fan of the show.

People who are watching the show for the first time must be in a doubt, as how can a rape victim be married off to her own rapist? The very simple answer to this question is that this is a show which deals with the reality of the society that the victim has to face aftermath the incident. This show deals with the wrath a victim faces from the society, in reality. It is definitely a fiction, but a fiction which speaks of the truth. In most of the cases, a victim is married off to her own rapist, just to press down the matter. A whole new story is cooked up, when asked of the victim. And in most of the cases which are based like this, A victim never gets a chance to speak up against the injustice she has suffered. She is shackled, with chains of the society. She is blind-folded and thrown into a dark room from where she can see no one, or nothing. This is the mere truth that is shown in the story, and not an injustice done by the show towards the victims, but an injustice done by the society towards such victims.

Isn't it an injustice towards the victim to show her falling in love all over again with a person who once she thought of as her rapist?
Okay, I won't say that Abeer isn't her rapist and he will suffer for the crime he did. But, wouldn't it be an injustice towards the victim itself to not being able to live a normal life, like she used to? What if she wants to love again, and I think, that's a great step towards life. Maybe that person was able to understand her like no one could? And is justice the only thing that is needed? I think, No! What is justice without a freedom towards life? I don't think it can serve any benefit, if the victim still has to suffer the same wrath from the society, and keep hiding the rest of her life like she's the one who committed the crime? I don't think, that's a great thing which should be supported. Justice is the most important thing, but freedom to life is the most important part of it, without which justice is nothing. Can't they just live a normal life? Why a rape victim is always tagged as a name to justice? and why not life? Why can't we say that, "Yes,she won! she succeeded in loving and living her life again! A great step!" and why only "Yes! she succeeded in getting her justice by punishing the rapists! A great step!". I think, justice involves both the things. Why only a punishment to the criminals? Would it end there?

Now I'll talk something about the character of Abeer.
Abeer is a person, who chose to not run away from the only a mere suspicion that he had committed a crime. He was not sure if he had committed the crime, still he did not run away, and chose to support Amala instead of his friends. He called it "QUITS" with his friends and chose to support Amala. Who does that? Who accepts his crimes? Who supports the person whom he wanted to harm? Isn't it strange that, he chose not to run away, when he had the chance to have easily had done that? I don't think that's a big thing he could've done. He could've have blackmailed his own friends to doom them, and escaped from the situation easily.

Now coming back to the first question, that why Amala would marry her own rapist! Now, I would want to ask the same question from a different angle, that why would a rapist want to get married to the victim of his own deeds? And that too, when he is not forced by anyone to do so. Why would he do that? And it is already shown that Abeer loved Amala from before, and that can definitely be one of the reasons for him to marry Amala. But isn't it hard for him too, to see Amala in such a situation? Would he have been able to stop himself from being her support?


Concluding from the above answers, I want to say that it is not a fiction, which speaks of an imaginary story, but a fiction, which speaks of the reality. We often connect ourselves with fictions which have no resemblance to the reality, but some are the stories which connect you to the society and also, which come from the society, and THIS is one such story. :)

P.S. Shoot your comments! :)

It would never be easy for a rape victim to live with her rapist.Re Abeer each time I watch this show I have to remind myself that it was not Abeer, it was the drugs that made him do what he did.

But Amala does not know that and she has a right to be angry, she has the right to feel what she is feeling right now.

Mandu and Dev are the real villains though. What love Dev is talking about, instead of standing by Amala he went ahead and burnt their house.

while it is not easy for Amala to live with her alleged rapist, I think it is not easy for Abeer to face Amala as well.

@BOLD Yes. That's the very thing that people are ignoring. If it isn't easy for Amala, then it isn't easy for Abeer as well.

Dev, who talks of love, on being face to face with Amala, I know what he would do. He would just fall down to violence and abuse like he did at the hospital. Even if he asks Amala to come with him,( which he would never do) he would remind her of her suffering each day. Dev's words are no different from the society's. He is the person, who had promised to love her, and also, he is the one to turn his back on her when she needed him. His love is just a show off thing, and he never really trusted or loved Amala.

Abeer didn't do the thing but he still suffers thinking that it is all because of him, when he could have escaped easily. Even when he gets to know that he isn't the rapist, he didn't leave, why would he stay back when he is clear of it?

But, Dev continues to be her rapist, through his actions, through his words.

So, which one's the true love: Dev's or Abeer's? Definitely, Abeer's!

And there are really no words for Mando from my side.

P.S. Yes! Drugs are not as easy as they seem to be, and we know why Abeer couldn't save her despite being there.

Abeer actually repents what he did that night...this is what makes him different from others...Evan and Suverr do not have an iota of guilt and Viraj is feeling guilty and is on a path of self destruction.
Dev...i don't like his character even before the hospital scene...he treated Amla like a prized possession...he did not stand with her in her time of need

Yes. Abeer repents and also, wants to take the responsibility of it. From his dialogues and actions in the recent episodes, we can clearly say that Abeer is scared for Amala, and also, he cares for amala. Neither he lets Dev near her, nor he lets any of his friends to even talk about her. There was also a scene where he jumped onto Viraj to beat him up when he even tried to talk about Amala. Just the mere thing of Dev reaching Amala, made him retort at Viren, which he never did.

And Dev, I would just clap for him, for his bloody mindset! 👏

The scene between Abeer and Viren was epic...the way Abeer taunts Viren was pure entertainment.
Yes he cares for Amla...but soon he will realise his love for her.

I felt bad for Mustafa initially specially when Yasarans got him beat up but for Dev i have zero sympathy.
