Even in e8, if Sadaf had just propositioned him once instead of keep on repeating I'll do anything would have made the scene feel much less bizarre and offputting.This is why my main issue is direction/execution not the writing. KRQ has set a good enough blueprint and structure but it is up to the director whether he can translate it and elevate it.
KRQ's writing style itself is such. I don't think he allows people to chop off his lines or scenes.
Coming to Sadaf repeating her proposition, I feel she was nervous but also trying to compose herself and ensuring that she sticks to her proposition. Hence she kept repeating it. Having said that, if she had said it thrice instead of 5 times even then it would have been fine.
I agree on the direction and editing. They should try to make it more crisp. Though the story has depth, it's movement is slow too which doesn't help either.
