Am I the only one who doesn’t feel an ounce of sympathy for Hareem even though the writing is favorable to her more than anything else in the show? . Her pain and her heartbreak doesn’t click, it looks so artificial and more because not even a day of separation there’s a new man ready to woo her. Why’s her character made to look so unlikable?
On the other hand, I do feel bad for Faiz, him turning rude and completely opposite to his initial character post his nervous breakdown is realistic, this is how a weak or emotional human would cope with the disaster, a wife who lied and left him, brother who put the family, business and him on the roads and now in jail, mother and sister who was never available for him when he needed their emotional support, a friend who was only a friend till his sister and he was happy, etc. Anybody in his place would e suffered another nervous breakdown.
I don’t want a happy ending tbh, Faiz and Hareem just does not click, there’s zero effort from her side, even though he was upset, she was the liar and she should have atleast for once tried to confront him and try to tell him her side too, running away like that made it worse. He loved her from the beginning and that love wasn’t enough for him to trust her so it’s weak and conditional, he as a secret lover was so endearing and likable, sadly his inheritance is from a very unjust and hypocritical family, and him being the only truthful and honest person in that cruel house deserved better.
Writer should have either shown Faiz a typical mumma’s boy and then pulled a mini Humsafaresque drama or should have shown him misogynistic and self loving to make this story believable. However, he’s shown to be selfless, kind, too much caring, always standing against his family and mother’s oppressive thoughts against poverty struck people and thus it’s a total disconnect that the same man wouldn’t trust his wife, especially the girl who was like his forever dream.
Either the story changed midway or the writer just didn’t know how to make Hareem the central part of the story, here Faiz and kehkashan looks more powerful and relatable and relevant to the arc and the title of the show should have been ‘Karam ka Phal’
Khumaar is a misleading title unless they’re trying to show Nasir’s Khumar of betrayal and revenge, which absolutely is very sensible given the kind of intelligence Hareem has been showing lately.
