She was so aware of who she was and where she was headed for.Try showing a character like that today, honestly. Even Zoya, from what I got of that last episode listened to her goddamn self and had some pride. Like compared to back then, Humsafar even though it was great and all had Khirad who got so annoying with all the shit she took from people. Same with Khushi, like as much as I loved IPKKND Khushi got on my nerves SOOO much.It's just like people just slumping into the easier way of looking at things and aren't ready to accept that life isn't one dimensional. And that women are people too, and they can feel just as strongly and complexly as everyone else.
Ahh--- yeah I think a lot of movies/tv shows have forgotten that woman are individuals too. But maybe that's why I like the Got books.. because he writes his female characters very similar to the men-- they have their desires and pride too.
Don't get me started on Kushi... but then if Kushi wasn't like that we would've had the same problem we are having with BD. These Trp aunties want women like Pragya from Kumkum bhagya or mahan ishita.. .women who put their needs aside for others.
Zoya is a great character.. she goes through her growth process during the show. She is always outspoken and bold but she starts out more immature about life. She doesn't take her responsibilities as seriously. But she is very clear on what she wants.
Actually since you liked that Fang si smack down of Xien cheng (can't remember) you would love the way Zoya handles Dr Sheena. She doesn't slap her- but she doesn't need to.
