"Kab tak aise dekthe rahoge?""Hamesha."
The very first scene of the show shows the hatred that the male lead, Zain, has for marriage. He tries to stop his best friend Rizwan from marrying a foreigner and was successful in this. Osman and Zain, surprisingly were more like friends than Father and Son, both of them prepare a fake certificate to show to Suraiyya, Zain's mom, who catches hold of the lie, this shows the understanding between the three of them. Fahad, the first son of Osman and Suraiyya, has two wives, who keep squabbling, and Fahad is shown as a husband who is sandwiched between his two wives who keep blaming each other and Fahad. Shabana and Ghulam are shown as two lovely parents of Aaliya and Ayat. Suraiyya is shown rather unhappy and hateful towards Aaliya's family. It inlolved a few wrangles from the past which weren't yet revealed.
The lucky part is that Zain and Aaliya were married, on compulsion, as a compromise, where Zain's dad, Osman, plays a major role by making them agree to the marriage. Shazia's father Chakkiwala saheb was also introduced in this month along with his other daughter Gauhar who wants to marry Zain, who is already married to Aaliya. This was the beginning of their beautiful journey from beintehaa nafrat to beintehaa mohabbat.
This month was an absolutely entertaining month where we witnessed a drastic change in Zain and Aaliya's relationship, in fact, a change in their relationship with other members of their respective families. A situation arises where Aaliya is compelled to save Fahad from a problem. She sells her own jewellery and saved him, but is falsely accused by Suraiyya and her daughters in law that she had sold all the jewellery for her own selfish needs. But Zain saves her in the last minute. The same way, Zain saved Aaliya's sister Ayat from Rocky, a manipulative fraud who tried to use Ayat as an escort, to earn money. Later on, when Zain came to know of all this, he called Rocky up and threatened him. To avenge Zain, Rocky deliberately hit his car on him, leaving Zain injured. What came next was delight 'cause we saw Aaliya looking after Zain. The same month, Aaliya is asked by Suraiyya to leave the house as Zain has done a lot of favour to her and tells her to return his liberty and freedom. Aaliya leaves the house and in the end does Zain realize what has happened, when he finds her letter at night and brings her back home. After that they find a mysterious person who claims that he knows about each and everything in their house and a big secret of their family is unveiled. But still, their cute Tom-Jerry fights and Nok-Jhoks don't end, as it just tuned out to be the major element of attraction in them.
This was a very special month for us fans, the second nikaah of Zain and Aaliya - well not exactly of Zain and Aaliya, rather, let's say, of Saira and Abdul. It happened due to another difficult situation, but this time, it was of friendship. While going in search of Barkat, Zain's sister, who was the unveiled secret of their family, they had to get married once again since Barkat was compelled to be married to an old man, here we witnessed the feeling that Zain and Aaliya have for each other, that is friendship and they finally save her. After the same incident, Suraiyya who was upset with Aaliya's family, began to accept them whole heartedly. But then, there is a twist in the tale, where Barkat is shown to be evil and she had entered Barkat Villa with an intention to get the Abdullah family's property, accompanied by Mir Khan, her father.But there were a lot of comic moments where we laughed our hearts out. Surely, Beintehaa is simply one of those shows you can never fall out of love with.
This was the time we can say was the most magical and unreal for us. This month was the elixir of Beintehaa. Right after an amazing confession in May, we got all the "ZaYaness" we ever wanted in this one month. Starting from Zain and Aaliya's cute nok jhok, then their dreamy romance and Zain trusting Aaliya. This was one point we felt that Zain might not trust Aaliya, due to Suraiyya's accusations on her, but he did. This was the period which proved the faith and purity in their relationship. Another major event which took place in June was Osman's elevator accident. Many times, audiences only connect to the leads of a show but here, Osman was one of the most loved figures of Beintehaa. There could have possibly been no one who hadn't shed tears as we watched Osman fight for his life. Ultimately, towards the end of the month, we witnessed Zain and Aaliya become one, in every way.
July was one of the gloomiest months for us as fans. We saw several changes in Zain and Aaliya's relationship, for the worse. It all started off well, with some cute romance but as the month progressed, we saw Zain and Aaliya turn bitter, crossing each other, going against each other's wishes. Starting from Aaliya trying to cure Osman with Unani medicine which the family had forbidden her from doing and Zain uniting Ayat and Rizwan by secretly letting them marry, against Aaliya's decision. Later on, they sorted their differences out but that joy was short lived. The very day, we saw Zain and Suraiyya being arrested due to a huge misunderstanding caused by Nafeesa. It led to Zain believing that Aaliya had been responsible for all the pain that he and his mother were going through.
Undoubtedly one of the most heart breaking period for all the viewers and one of the most eventful too. We first witnessed Osman, the pillar of the Abdullah family being snatched away into the horrific realms of death. That was like losing the soul of Beintehaa. Following that incident, we saw Zain giving Aaliya the first talaaq (divorce), in front of hundreds of people during his father's funeral, holding her responsible for every mishap that had taken place, including Osman's death. Aaliya had nearly given up hope at that point but it so happened that Osman had written 51% of his property on Aaliya's name, making her the prime owner of Barkat Royale, which led to her working alongside Zain. After a few days, the second talaaq took place, breaking everyone's heart for a second time, all over again. Later, we saw Zain and Aaliya going on a business trip. This was a point we thought would unite our ZaYa again and the third talaaq would not take place but no. Ultimately, we witnessed Zain give the third and final talaaq to Aaliya, breaking the ZaYa we loved into just Zain and Aaliya. Next, Aaliya unable to bear the agony that she had been cruelly put through decided to leave everything behind and go somewhere else where she would be out of the reach of Zain and his family. This was when Zain realized that Aaliya was innocent. He tried reaching her before she left, but as fate always has it, he let her slip away by just a matter of seconds. A time leap of a year was shown. It was then shown that she had eventually moved to Hyderabad where she set up a dhabba for a living. Towards the end of the month we saw Zain visiting Hyderabad for performing an ishtamayi nikaah for a couple. This was one of the biggest turning points of the show, as we knew this was where Zain and Aaliya would meet again.
This was the month when Zain and Aaliya's lives were put on a real trial. Of course, Zain found Aaliya in Hyderabad, but too much damage had been done for a recovery that early. Aaliya refused their relationship and put Zain to test several times, pacifying herself he wouldn't win. But against all the odds, Zain won each time and eventually won back his lady love's heart too. Sounds like a perfect love story, right? But that's not it. They had to fight against their families for their acceptance who utterly detested the idea of them getting back together after all that which was said and done. Finally, it was decided that Aaliya would have to perform a halala nikaah in order to remarry Zain.
The earlier part of this month was undeniably the most shattering period for both Zain and Aaliya and also us as fans. To lose your better half is one thing, but to watch her become someone else's in front of your eyes and knowing you can't do anything about it is murder, literally. This month was when the halala nikaah was shown. Aaliya married Rehaan Khan, who formerly was a lawyer, but later worked under Barkat Royale. He was first a positive character in the show, who had worked as a major catalyst in bringing Zain and Aaliya back together but due to some misunderstandings, a grey shade of him was shown. When Zain saved Rehaan's daughter Zara from an accident, all the misconceptions were cleared. As the month went on, we finally saw Zain and Aaliya remarry. I'm sure we hadn't been as happy when ZaYa first officially got married. We could finally breathe, now. No wait, there's still more. Towards the end of the month, Rocket an expert con artist entered, who happened to be the look alike of Zain. So yes, we were heading for another separation, except a different kind.
In this month, a planned swap of Zain with Rocket, by Zareena, Suraiyya's sister was shown. The whole Abdullah family remained oblivious to the fact that the Zain they thought was theirs was actually an imposter, even though Aaliya had her instinctive apprehensions. Zareena's chief intention was to avenge her sister by snatching away all their property. But things were sorted out in the nick of time and the Abdullah family finally came to know the truth and Zain and Aaliya reunited, again.
This was also the month this beautiful eleven months journey came to an end. It was shown that Zain and Aaliya became parents to a boy, who they named Zayed. It was also shown that Ayat and Rizwan became parents to a girl, who they named Kashish. Zayed and Kashish start off the just exactly the same way Zain and Aaliya did, as rivals by birth, unable to stand each other's sight, always at each other's heels and yes, we can go on and on and on about it but this was when we had to bid adieu to this extremely endearing show.
Time gives and takes away many beautiful things in life. Beintehaa was one such diamond it gave to us, but it was snatched away from us just a little too soon. As much as we miss Beintehaa we know for a matter of fact that Zain and Aaliya will always stay alive in some corner of our hearts. Beintehaa gave us something to cherish forever. There's no way we're forgetting this saga anytime soon, at least, not till the end of eternity. Happy 1st Anniversary, Beintehaa!
"Anyone can make you smile, many people can make you cry, but it takes someone really special to make you smile with tears in your eyes."
And Beintehaa, you did just that. We will always remember you. Thank you for giving us something to love forever.
