Really beginning to wonder if this story actually happened.
Beyond all the face palm moments ...one can't deny all this is very realistic.
Mubashira:
She might be quite a lamb in love, but when it comes to business and winning Zaid for herself, she's not going to back down. Kuchh bhi chalega. Unfortunately for her, Zaid doesn't subscribe to that philosophy of hers.
So how much should she change herself for Zaid? She doesn't walk behind him like a meek wife and to Zaid's annoyance, she doesn't wait for him to open the door for her or let him stride ahead ... that's pure MJ. She also loves to see it as his victory...she's the businessman 's wife ... quite happy with that tag.
Well played, says Asif. Yes, MJ has played this game well because no one can predict her moves. She focuses on her actions and gives no reactions...that's an excellent attitude actually, so long as it didn't lead to her discrediting an honest person, maligning her name professionally. Now Ayra can only work for Zaid or get in somewhere on MJ's recommendation. Is that what Mubashira wants? Get Ayra to work for Zaid so he can see more of the differences he didn't see before marriage?
Ayra:
She is the wronged one definitely in this incident. We can only sympathise with her. No one would want to be in her position, seeing all that hardwork pulling you down. Then again, who would choose to be in her position? Willingly, forcefully, become a second wife and challenge the existing hierarchy, make a place for herself...when all this could have been done outside Asif's empire. She could have been a team with Zaid, which is what he dreamt of...she disappointed him twice. First, by refusing to take him without his family, and now by refusing to work with him. She should have trusted him both times. She will have to pick between Zaid and her dreams, her profession, her need to excel... because Zaid is politically correct when it comes to dealing with an ambitious wife, but he's not enjoying it.
Ayra's bhabhi: She is doing a good job of moving on. Respect has been restored to her, so Ayra getting married instead of running away, was a good move. If Ayra got married to a divorced man, the respect wouldn't be any less. Bhabhi tells Ayra she hopes these tragedies will bring her closer to Zaid...yes, provided Ayra learns not to react ...
Kash and Rayyan: Rayyan is a fool and he will soon pay for his stupidity. All that remains to be seen is how he will be exposed.
Zaid:
He adjusts way too much for Ayra. He goes according to protocol. This is what he is supposed to do as a husband, so he will do it. He will congratulate her even when he is hurting and wishing there was someone to take that hurt away ..that someone would actually notice what he needs. Still, protocol requires he is a loving and protective husband...he will be that.
That glare he gave MJ...he knows she's capable of manipulating the social media, threaten his own sister with divorce...so this is nothing new for him. He has displayed to her clearly his disapproval.
Will he enjoy this victory? Unlikely. Will he stand up and demand justice for Ayra? I really wonder if the writing will get there.
He still has MJ as a business partner...
He still has MJ as a lover who will kill herself before seeing him hurt...
And he has the MJ he would love to hate, except he has some feelings for her that won't go away just like that.
I can't help but think how interesting it would have been had they shown MJ getting married to Asif and not Zaid. Asif is everything MJ needs. 
NGL, i think it's still not too late..
