Haven't noticed Danish but Ayeza ka I have.Initially,I wasn't bothered because she deleted many of her photoshoots pics.But today I noticed that she deleted the recent promotional pics of Mein.Toh thoda bura Laga because I love the way she promotes the show

Btw looks like something haute addressed the issue that fans have been pointing towards them regarding their stance and opinion on wahaj...

Hassan and aamna discussed that wahaj wasn't utilised properly in this show and they don't want him take up characters which have no scope for performance...they also arent like his styling in the show and think that he didn't put much effort to look good like murtasim or even hamza..

They are waiting for smd and would then see if he is taking up projects carefully and not signing anything and everything that'd been offered to him

Let's hope this stays

I really feel they don't want Zaid to surface those feelings. It can't come up while he's devoted to Ayra. He confessed this now only because MJ asked him pointedly and Zaid believes as always he should be fair to her too. It's a very thin line they have written their hero on- he has wooed and won one and loved and admired the other and lost her once.

For me, as a viewer, if they don't do it very subtly, I'd say he's cheating on both. That's why I still don't think there was a place for FB till now.

There's always the question. If he loved her and moved on, why did he choose her again? It could have been any other girl, but her. That aspect of his character is very gray and the only way they can make us respect him is to keep us guessing, knowing the hero has locked it away and never means to open it.

They can make him say he has nothing for her now so it's a pure business deal to marry her...then he could have had that intense hatred track as well...and the second marriage and him assessing her again...then it's in a dangerous zone where he's checking her out while he's married to Ayra. We wouldn't feel the same purity in his feelings towards Ayra or MJ. Purity is not the word, perhaps...decency ...or... respect...and they wouldn't be able to develop it like him reading Mubashira like a second reading...may be his actions would have had more clarity, but it may not have looked respectable is what I feel.

This is why I don't see much point in a backstory. What happened between them is not so relevant to me when I'm waiting to see what's going to happen to them.

I totally agree with you - that if Zaid’s feelings were shown resurfacing without any subtlety, it can destroy the character – would give the impression of him cheating on both. Having said that, without the clarity of his feelings, I guess some of his actions may also come across as close to cheating and may still malign his character. Take the bedroom scene for example – without knowing actually where he is coming from, that scene can be interpreted differently. By the time he was walking into the house, he was fully aware that his feelings which he had locked in a box and stored in the deep recesses of his heart has started to seep through unsanctioned – he has started liking her company and attention, as I have mentioned earlier, he was not happy with this knowledge. He started to obscure his feelings and that made him become more guarded around her, hence the refusal to the coffee-chat. His initial refusal of her offer was very significant – I was literally crossing my fingers and hoping he’d say no (the background score was melancholic too!). He was consciously trying to avoid and compartmentalize his feelings for her – not wanting to be disloyal to the woman, as you say, whom he wooed and won. But he returns – he was hurt, constantly being pressurized amidst the tug of war his life has become, and seek the companionship that is available, which he knows that his heart desires. That is how I saw it, with the belief of his past feelings, the whole sequence made sense. But without that, it could be interpreted very callously – Ayra was working late for his rival, she asked him not to come and pick her, he was hurt, so he went to MJ’s room to inflict the hurt in Ayra. This narrative makes him petty, his intentions disrespectful to both women and definitely, paint him as a cheater, no?

For me, here he was not jumping from one woman to the other – he was trying so hard to suppress his feelings. But without knowing what is going on his head, if someone thinks otherwise, we cannot really blame them. I believe the majority of the viewership of these dramas do not scrutinize what is shown, they take everything for the face value. That is why some concrete hints or monologues are needed. I don’t mind the guessing part, but they should have started giving proper hints earlier.

Zaid was in love with Mubashira and he has buried his feelings deep within his heart, hoping never to revisit them. His struggle to stop those being unearthed for the loyalty he has for Ayra is real – I, as a viewer, fully believe this. You don’t have to convince me about this , in fact, I won’t be convinced otherwise. I normally watch things with magnifying glasses – take those Zaid – Mubashira scenes that almost came as fillers or lollipops in last week’s episode – would you be surprised if I say I actually saw those as important bits? take the scene where they were dining, he was unnerved and rattled with Ayra’s unavailability. He was feeling guilty for leaving her behind, and her being upset with him for that, was not quite sitting well with him. He threw the napkin irritated clearly indicating he was done eating. Mubashira’s comment unsettled him further – why? As I said earlier, his solution to all this was to compartmentalize Mubashira, not letting her trespass certain nooks of his heart, keep everything at a bay – her invading his and Ayra’s relationship dynamics can complicate things and the thought brings him to the edge, hence that request. She was graceful with his request, but still asked him to continue with his food saying he might be hungry. And it was adorable when he complied like a petulant child! And tell me if I am wrong, I don’t recall him calling her by her first name during their marraige before this instance. At the anniversary party, he addressed her as MJ and as ‘Mubashira’ couple of times, when he was trying to calm her down. After her divorce, none. After their marriage, somewhere during their arguments, he called her ‘Mubashira Jaffer’ (I don’t remember exactly when). I don’t remember him calling her by her name in any of their face-to-face interactions before this – after their marriage. Now, I don’t know him not taking her name was intentional or not, but it actually struck a note and amused me, because he always addressed her anonymously – again correct me, if it is not the case! When she was divorced, he seemed guarded and distanced. Similarly, not taking her name, I feel was his way of distancing her mentally. Taking someone’s name, though we do not pay much attention to it, can have a very significant effect – it can reflect the dynamics of one’s relationship, it can imply familiarity and foster a subtle intimacy and psychologically impose a connection. So, for me, he was intentionally creating a mental distance. He taking her name during that scene did come as a bit of a surprise – it was a sign that he was opening up to her without his own consent!
