Asgar is a very intelligent man, the only one who fits the bill of on paper and on screen grey character. He is saying right things and pulling his cards without any gloating.
His dialogue today was that Noor is an Astin of Saap, it takes one to know one. Asgar can spot a snake đ
I agree, as a negative character I can tolerate Asgar better than Sarraya and her crow one-liner. 𤢠I appreciated his way of convincing Razia Begum in the last episode too. Yes I did watch the episode eventually.
As you mentioned, he spoke the truth but used it to his advantage.
