You are not the only one. Zoya being chirpy and friendly isn't what's off. It's the fact that she's treating Aditya like a friend she's known forever. Aditya and Zoya outside of their shared pain over cheating spouses do not really know each other.
So their relationship, to me, feels like a farce. And you are right I don't see the chemistry anymore.

I don't mind the leap and Zoya attributing her success to Aditya showing her that she needs to stand up for herself and become something. But this whole "aziz dost thing is over done and to me as a viewer not appealing. I would rather they show Aditya and Zoya get to know each other organically and become "aziz rather than this insta connection.

I just hope this Azeez dost track ends soon and bepannah mohabbat track starts. This is not ekta show where the leads take years to fall in love with each other. This show's pace is fast compared to other shows so I think they should start the love track.

The saccharine azeez dost dialogues are a pain. Them suddenly behaving like best buddies doesn't seem like a natural progression. I hope they tone it down a bit.

Thought I love Zoya and Aditya's newfound friendship and Zoya 2.0, I do have to admit I was a bit taken aback at her saying azeez dost. 😆 maybe it's because she has no other friends ? And Arjun and her aren't really that close.

I enjoy the progression of the story though. I'm waiting for some feelings on Zoya's end now. Aditya is obviously attracted to her, however I'm a bit curious as to what Zoya is feeling, hope the CVs are a bit more expressive about her

I agree! But do you really think Zoya should have reverted to her original self in these 6 months? The physical comfort level between the two w/o a hint of awkwardness from Zoya is a bit too much right?


I personally don't think so. Having recently been through a very big tragedy and loss myself, i think that type of loss just teaches you to appreciate and make the most of your life because you never know when it will go away. I am back to myself after 3 weeks. I definitely have my ups and down moments in a day, but there is no difference in my sense of humor or personality. I do not behave any different around my co-workers or friends or even family. So drawing parallel from personal experience, I don't think 6 months is a short time. 6 months is actually a very long time and I am personally very happy with how Zoya has reverted back to her pre-Yash death self. Life should be lived to the fullest.

Coming to the physical comfort between the two, I think that's also legitimate. Adi has carried her in his arms several times, he has saved her from drowning in water again in very close proximity, they have danced several times in close proximity. Having had so much closeness before, why would there be any hesitation in a hug? I mean I hug all my co-workers if I havent seen them in a few months and I am also a modern-conservative muslim girl. I am actually liking that Zoya has no awkwardness just yet, because she doesn't see Adi in that "light". I actually want her to take time to understand that Adi is more than just a friend for her. I also love how Adi has started towards that path already, where he is feeling the physical attraction. Not love, just physical attraction. Typically, its always men who feel physical attraction first. For women, the emotions carry more weight than the physical attraction.

That is my take on this track 😊

I can definitely relate to what you are saying though I am enjoying the track. Now before anyone thinks its contradicting, let me tell u y I feel this way. When courtroom drama and big reveal happened I cursed this show non stop to an extent it made me feel sad at one point. I will never feel otherwise about how I felt back then but there was too much negativity around. Yes I loved this show in the beginning for more than JenShad - the concept, characterisation and all the little details about it. But somewhere the show lost track with silly tracks that made no sense esp from characterization standpoint. Rather than blame the characters I will blame the writer will introducing loopholes, esp the way all the blame fell on Adi. If u remember the initial episodes where Arjun reads the diary, Pooja said even though Adi was loving, caring n an amazing guy she couldn't help falling for Yash and then at the end Adi is declared a hopeless husband n what is worse, the poor guy accepts it! Yes he was not perfect but not a bad husband like he was made out to be. There are other things that can make u a good husband too - trusting. Adi trusted Pooja enough to hand her 5 cr without even once doubting y n for whom she needed. Who was that important to her that she asked him such a huge amount?

So yes, after all this mess, all my expectations of seeing a show with well defined characters died that day and right now I am enjoying it only for AdiYa. Its so unlike Zoya to hug a guy in the middle of the street or take him out on a midnight date. Its one thing for her to become optimistic n a lil childish but she has made a 180 degree shift 😆 If I have to connect her with the old Zoya I will probably bash the makers for butchering the characterization but I have already done that. So not repeating it. So I am watching it with zero expectations this time keeping my brains aside. Else I would have quit this show two weeks ago. This feels like a new story to me altogether.

I honestly do not have any particular problem with the Adiya scenes. In fact, I already mentioned I found them to be absolutely adorable. Its just that I couldn't feel the chemistry they usually have emanating from those scenes. For some reason I couldn't enjoy those scenes the way I used to enjoy earlier, and I feel it is because of Zoya's character. I think I liked the naivety she had in her, but when I say this, all start thinking I am not for an independent Zoya, and I want the fool in her to make a comeback, something which I absolutely do not want. Yes, perhaps, I did miss the point that she had always been like this before the tragedy struck, and I may have made mistake there. I think I would have liked to see some insight into the last six months, as this change seems a little abrupt in my eyes, and a gradual transformation would have made more sense. Now, I agree that the writers have the trps to take care of and all that, but their compulsions don't really compel me into not expressingy my lack of connect with the character (I think they have nailed Adi's depressed state of mind). The day I feel like playing episodes and certain scenes on loop on my laptop screen will be the day I will say I am enjoying the show. Right now I am trying because this is the only show I like to watch, but for some reason I am unable to. Could be like I already said my bias too.


I certainly did not reply to this post in hopes that I may change your mind. You are entitled to your opinion and further argument from me won't change your mind either. The reality is that every track the CVs will write will have some takers and some that will not be able to connect to the track, which is OK. It is afterall a TV show and there is a very wide variety of viewers who perceive each scene and track differently. It is actually refreshing to see different opinions because it does open your mind to new ideas and thoughts. I think I just draw a lot of parallel to my own personal life with that of AdiYa's story, and the progression of the story makes complete sense to me.

I agree with you. I criticized Zoya for her stupidity and all but it was still fine. I could connect with her at some level. Her character was portrayed well. Even Adiya had better chemistry before the leap.

This leap made everything haphazard and nothing is making sense now. It looks like its entirely new show. All previous connection to characters is just lost. I am not able to see any chemistry in Aditya just staring at Zoya and Zoya acting so OTT. It is not their character which I saw for the last few months.

For me personally, this leap is not working. I would have loved to see Rajveer drama, Poosh murder mystery and Adiya handling it than this leap and sudden change.


same with me ...i would have liked that too...

I don't read too much into the story and characters when the leads have such great chemistry and when we are given such beautiful scenes.

That said, i'm not totally appalled by zoya's change of character - I think she was always very friendly and trusting - it's only that she's no longer so nave as before - she trusts Aditya more than herself ..and I don't misconstrue her closeness to him ..I have a couple of male friends myself whom i'm really close with and though we don't connect that often due to jobs and such but when we do it's like we just continue from where we left off ..and we do hug ..so I felt a hug from zoya was totally expected ..she's become street smart now but she still has her own loving and friendly nature that always was within her!

Also, she is drawn towards adi ..she thinks it's friendship ..there will come a time when she'll realize it's more than that ..and perhaps her going so much behind him is to just bring him out of his sorrow ...she sensed that he's not the same person he used to be!
