totally agree, i used to love this show and was excited for its potential and now everything has fallen apart.
what have they done to arzoo, at the start she was great, strong, with morals and principles and given her experience with her father i never thought she would fall in love so fast but that aside which fine ok, this whole forced marriage/contract thing and her agreeing to it, walking on coal is rubbish. she said there is no other way, but come on, there is, there always is, this isnt a life death situation where your on some cliff with only seconds to decided with literally no resources or other option. and how long did she stand on those coals, it took forever.
this whole thing makes me mad, they might as well make sahir a villian, i really dont feel sorry for him, he can wallow in his self pity and misery. like who does he think he is, saying you will marry me, do whatever you like but you will marry me. entitled much, i hate the fact he has no consideration at all, like she is property, i hate how his character is butchered, he crossed a line big time with the egg ordeal and all of this, i dont care what his agenda is there isnt a excuse. and arzoo ending up agreeing to it makes me wanna do a head desk. to be honest sahir is the type of guy girls are warned about like i said before. honestly they made zaki the one to support her, make her laugh, have proper convos, all of which i would expect the ML and FL to do together, instead we get the opposite. like what kind of guys are portrayed as the romantic hero. its beyond me.
indeed this show is regressive like is it really that hard to show something more modern and have a good love story whilst not making the FL terrible in representation for women and not making the ML well abusive and so forth. is it that hard to avoid contract/forced marriages, guys hurting the FL so badly and being entitled and making the FL weak and taking all of it, being a mahan, being so self sacrificing that you want to cringe and not care anymore about her. these guys are supposed to be writers and directors and its always the same drama.
i mean yeah forced marriages/contract marraiges happen, often where the girl has no choice, so why cant they for once show, a girl not break and bending down and accepting this fate, why not show her fighting back, and not being helpless to her situation and finding another way, why not show her not compromising everything she is, her morals. because all i saw in the ep was the opposite, it felt so helpless like most forced marriage like this seem to be on every other show. why cant they show something more empowering like i mentioned for all those people watching, all those girls watching showing how they have a choice and they can fight back and showing everyone else how they dont have a right to put a girl in that situation and sending out a clear message without it really being forced. arzoos character is falling apart and its saud to see and its been a gradual decline
i wish the writers and directors would think outside the box
