My mother isn't pleased with Torah's antics. She doesn't say it outright but little off hand comments like, "Ye toh na..." and the frown on her face whenever he is doing some tedha kaam says a lot π I on the other hand never forget to comment, "Ye mera favorite hai!" on every Torah scene! Cuz he's such a justified grey character. The man was literally pushed by Gulistan's family all his life to the extent where he is now. No wonder he only cares about his sister because that's the only person in the world who loves him unconditionally. It's not Torah schemes cuz he has nothing to do but koi wali hi hoga who wouldn't turn bitter after receiving a degrading treatment all his life from the hands of people who are supposed to be family. He can't be called a villain simply because there is no concept of heroes and villains in this show. You just have characters with their good and the bad. I mean..Gulistan Khan is the big bad patriarch but even he makes it hard for me to dislike him because the man has a genuinely tender side to him. It shows in the way he treats Shireen or even how he listened to Shireen's bhabhi and took back the oath of killing his son's murderer.
The concept of grey characters is just so rare on our desi TV. So SeM just leaves me in awe because the show boasts of some terrifically written grey characters! Matlab writer ne koi theek thaak dimag laga ke ye drama likha hai. It shows in the way flashbacks are interwoven in the narrative and revealed at the most apt moment to give details about the characters. Just the style of narration is a breathe of fresh air...like I said, I'm in awe. Who knew Pakistani dramas had it in them to come up with some as fine as Sang e Marmar?
