Now I know, why the Peer Baba had such a sad expression on his face yesterday at the dargah. He said, Evil does not die my child, it merely changes its face... He had such a sad face when he told Sanam, her peace would be shortlived. He gave her ONE piece of protective power.
He used to be loud and punishing and downright thunderous with Tanveer, but now he just vanishes in the air.
And left the burden of choosing to her. Sanam is never selfish. She gave it to Aahil, confident that if he is safe from evil, he would save them all: Sanam and Seher and himself. Such is the trust she put on her husband.
Chidiya/The Witch (I shall use this to refer to Sanam2/nayiSanam/ from now..) is revealed in her true form.

Gosh she looks a 100 years old. Ugly, warty and mean to the bone marrow. She vows to imprison Aahil and be the powerful Begum Sahiba. She thinks she can capture Aahil so strongly that he can't even leave the house.
(All this evil and they have one tiny metal piece on a string to protect themselves...)
She sold off Seher to a salivating Sheikh who bundles her into a truck with 4 other girls. As they drive off, Sanam arrives there. Of course Aahil's phone never works when you really need to call him.
Chidiya casts a spell that changes weather (Let's all just give up now shall we? She can do anything??) and makes Sanam go around in circles. She somehow reaches the police checkpoint and she spots the lorry driver bribing the policeman.
Sanam climbs into the truck as Seher climbs out.
Precap: Seher escapes and runs away.
Let's hope she gets to Aahil.
I dunno, this episode left me wondering why I still watch this show. I don't like what I saw coming for the future tracks. If a die hard QH addict like me would rather go to sleep than watch QH...
But a tiny unrepentant optimistic chirp in me says, Chidiya succeeds in separating Aahil and Sanam, but she won't get Aahil in her clutches.
Aahil has lost his mother to evil, his brother to sacrifice, and he will lose his Sanam. I am waiting for seething Rage.
I'm all for angst but I don't like this new evil. Not one bit. It doesn't inspire any humour in me at all.
