God! That must have been difficult! If they refund you the rent paid in advance, consider shifting, yeah? Landlord problems are the worst. And if you are a single woman renting in India, the things one has to face! 🤔
Meanwhile Habs this week has been a mixed bag. Penny for your thoughts?
So true! I’m leaving the place around end of December, so will have to make do till then. I’m not in India anymore, I’ve been living in Switzerland for a while now. Good housing is very hard to find here.
Also WTF was this Habs episode?!! 🤬 I don’t know whether the original story was envisaged in such a manner or if this is a result of trying to alienate FK from the project but this has been disturbing to say the least. The less I talk about the unprofessionalism of the whole cast, the better.
I mean in which show do the main leads barely get 7 or so minutes when they’re such a rage amongst fans?! Also I cannot believe this is the same show that had me hooked right from the beginning. I honestly loved Sadia’s presence and miss her so much ❤️ I feel like the show has gone haywire completely. Only Qudsia’s character is somewhat maintained otherwise every other character has been butchered.
Take Basit for example, yes I know he is in love and the loved up Basit is adorable but what happened to that guy who had a general mistrust of women? Yes, he trusts Ayesha but I thought she would be the exception and not the rule. How can he trust Soha blindly? That woman shows up randomly at your house in the evening when you have plans to go out with your wife, why couldn’t you have firmly refused and promised to look into it the next day? I think what we all loved about Basit was how he could be both hard and soft, shrewd and vulnerable depending on the situation and with Soha they’ve taken that away from him. When he is able to see that Ayesha is so affected by Soha’s presence (the same way he was seeing Ayesha and Fahad), it would be hypocritical of him to not draw clear boundaries. I although appreciate that he did try in the dining room but it wasn’t enough.
Ayesha, I feel should fake confidence in front of Soha even if she doesn’t have any. I know she is shown to be naive but she needs to develop the sense of understanding fake pretentious and shark like people such as Soha. At this point I don’t think it is enough for Ayesha to just be Basit’s wife, she needs to build a life outside her marriage as well. Study more, start working, get to know more people, build friendships and make enemies. All of these experiences will help her grow otherwise women like Soha will keep fawning over Basit and Ayesha will always be left feeling hurt and bereft.
As for Amir- Zoya that track is filled with negativity.
Same with Talal, what a spineless simpleton, there’s no depth in his character. It’ll be gross injustice if Bano goes back to that man. She deserved better.
I don’t think this episode in particular gave me feel good moments apart from a few Ayet scenes which were almost ruined due to Soha’s looming presence. Honestly, way to destroy a perfectly good show.
Will discuss the individual Ayet scenes in the next post. Sorry this was me ranting.
