Please don't go the route of female abuse and humiliation with SaHil!

An interesting thing about the recent upsurge of QH: It is not due to any current hate, revenge, ladla or takraar between the leads.
Now the question is what does the future--or rather the SaHil marriage--hold? Something in me tells me that this story is not going to be one of female abuse and humiliation. I don't know why, but I just have this feeling.

QH2 has been a pleasant surprise in this aspect. Other than one complaint I had very early on, the show had managed the "love-hate" aspect without unnecessary (and romanticized) abuse and humiliation inflicted on the female lead--which is often the case in many Hindi serials that attempt to portray a "love-hate" story. SaHil was different in that Sanam always reacted and gave it back. She wasn't made to stand there and take insults and humiliation due to whatever reason, including her employee status; nor was she made to give needless and useless Bhashans as a response. No, Sanam reacted and replied in a far more impressive manner than many other Hindi serial female leads in so-called "love-hate stories".

So the question is where does the story go from here? My hope is that the makers be consistent as well as creative, and not go down the same old path where the male lead inflicts various insults, humiliation and abuses on the female lead who meekly accepts the abuse due to some majboori.--with some 'humorous' scenes or "romanticized" instances of the male lead feeling bad for some of his actions thrown in to somehow make up for the fact that what is actually shown is degrading, insulting, and regressive to women.

Many Hindi serials take the idea of contract marriage, or majboori marriage, and turn it into hate marriage or revenge marriage wherein which the male lead makes it his mission constantly and continuously abuse, insult and humiliate the female lead (sometimes only privately, other times both privately and publicly).

This is not only lazy but a very regressive trope of storytelling, and I sincerely hope QH2 and SaHil don't go in this manner. A contract marriage exists from both sides. Misunderstanding can exist from both sides. Hell, even "hate" can exist from both sides.

By all means, let SaHil have misunderstandings; let them both lash out at each other due to their misunderstandings. But what should not happen is the instance of the male lead taking it upon himself to punish and humiliate the female lead, with the female lead put in a position where she has to bear it all.

Awesome post dear. I just fed up with this so called love hate stories. Its look like the so called hero has a birth right about abusing and insulting heroine with some so called romantic scene and all girls going crazy of the hero by saying him hot, possessive wagara wagara. This is the reason i dont watch a show for long time. And i think gul done this insult thing in her previous show. So i hope she dont repeat it again. And for god sake pls dont make sanam abla or majbur nari who try to change the hero by her love. I just hate this type of women who dont stand for themselves and acting as a mahan by thinking about others No offense to any one

They have taken great pains in portraying Sanam as 'her father's daughter', as thus far she has been ferocious in defending herself and her loved ones.

Except recently with Nida, probably because she doesn't quite understand what's going on, what with that gorgeous man staring at her all the time!! 😆

To subject her to a forced/hate marriage with Aahil misunderstanding and torturing her ala IPKKND would be suicidal to Sanam's character. Her character would probably march out with her Badi Ammi and Haya, and say 'To Hell with all of you! ' with Rehan's support.
I'm very curious as to how this track is going to play out.

I dare say I'm liking the 'kept in the dark' feeling about plots, apart from snippets of spoilers like marriage, Aahil's confession etc.

Hate Marriage is just not possible now that it has been drilled into the audience that Ahil is madly in love with Sanam.
Sanam, too does not hate Ahil anymore. She is wary of him, but doesn't hate him,

So, marriage, will a marriage of convenience. Maybe the nikaah gets cancelled due to Sanam or maybe Saahil are caught in a compromising situation.
There are options galore. Lets see what the CVs have planned.

I feel the same thing, there won't be any abuse and insult. Misunderstanding from both side can happen to get the flow of the love story. They may cross their path and due to Tanvir Aahil may be pressurised but can't insult Sanam due to his love. I think this will be the Junoon moment.

I agree 100% with you. So far I have come out on most occasions saying... "You GO girl Sanam"!! I hope to do so in the future too. The marriage of Aahil and Sanam will happen for whatever reason. But I don't want this to be shown in the same regressive manner of a hate marriage!

IF in fact Aahil does believe that Sanam loves Rehaan, this is NO reason for him to be aggressive or abusive towards her. He will be jealous yes, but that is not a good enough reason to continue with aggressive acts. Sanam is a free agent. So is Rehaan. A relationship between them is not taboo in any way, and nor is it a reflection on Sanam's character. (Inevitable comparison to IPK, where ASR thinks Khushi is involved with his brother in law, a married man. So it was a reflection on her character and also the relationship was taboo).


But here, Aahil has no such "Moral high ground" to retreat to. Both Sanam and Rehaan are well within their rights to form a relationship if they so wish. The only complaint that Aahil will have here is that despite loving her madly, he has failed to become the object of Sanam's affections. Being scorned in love is the only complaint that he has against Sanam. If he punishes her for loving someone other than himself, then he is not the man I think he is!


My request to Gul Khan... please dont ruin Aahil. Dont turn him into a REAL Jallad Jin. Let that remain a nickname only!!
