So finally managed to watch the episode and my honest opinion is I did not like it. Even though that romeo was there only for one scene, the character assassination of Naima has made this a depression show. Like someone else mentioned Zunaisha was absolutely right about the unhealthy relationship mother son had, looks like Naima wants that back.
She told Shehroz before you were all around me, when she is the one who pushed him towards Ushna. She told him to consider if he is in love with her and when he realises that he is she wants him back like he was before? I am really not able to connect with Naima atm. First she married her husband, no one wanted it including her husband and Zainab or the kids. Zainab did it because she was being blackmailed, then she married off Shehroz and Ushna - again neither of them wanted it. She also knew that Romeo likes Ushna and romeo himself made sure everyone knew about it. His mother even came after marriage to blast Ushna so nothing was hidden from her.
I understand she is shocked her son was shot and she wants to find the culprit but I have yet to see her call the cops non stop to keep the case open or even hire a private detective to do his digging. How in the world she thinks that culprit will be unveiled? He isn't going to confess on his own so what are the options? She is busy being a mean mother in law and a nuisance at this point where she is on a blaming spree.
Shehroz was unbearable before his marriage to Ushna, in fact even after marriage he was not as good until his mother told him to think about love. I like the change in him and hope it continues but all this "khandaan" and "khoon" is really pissing me off. Why was she not thinking of this when she found out Ushna was adopted?
It looks right now Wahab family have banded together and therefore if Zainab were to seek her brothers it would make sense. I don't understand why ruin a good story that was progressing well. Yes that romeo was a nightmare to watch but things were moving so I could vent and move on. Shehroz told Ushna think of my mum, but she also loves her mother and it is natural she will think of her mother too. She agreed to his request but I don't like men mandating their rules on women. He could have left it for her to decide and if she had said no that would have made sense for me at least. It is good that he is supportive and not bending to his mum as he did with Zunaisha.
I wish this adoption track was not disclosed before and Ushna Shehroz fell in love and wanted to marry, then this current track would make some sense because right now I feel like I am in alternate reality where nothing is making sense at all lol. Somehow I feel Naima knows when to take advantage of her disability and she is also not above using others to get what she wants.
Only saving grace is it will end soon. I have given up on Mere Humsafar and was thinking this will get me going but looks like I spoke too soon!!
