To everyone discussing Meerab's actions, her character is meant to be annoying. The whole show is based on the push and pull concept. If they wanna show the Taming of the Shrew, then Meerab has to be this spoilt brat person - someone for Murtasim to tame.
Also, if seen from Meerab's pov, her anger is fully justified. Like she is allowed to be angry at life in general given the circumstances. Yes Murtasim is the wrong target here. He is at zero fault in whatever happened. But because of being a practical person, she knows she cannot do anything to maa begum or Anwar. She has no means to disrupt their life. Her easy access is to Murtasim. So, she keeps playing games with Murtasim coz that is the only way she can cause some sort of disturbance in maa begum's life also. Right now, she only sees him as a means to an end.
Is what she is doing right? NO. But at this moment, she doesn't care. She is angry. She wants to lash out. And Murtasim is allowing her the space to lash out. So she is taking this opportunity to the fullest.
This is how I am interpreting her actions right now. Yes it is annoying to watch and she does come across as rude. But if you see what she has gone through in regards to the parentage drama, you will at least get an understanding of her state of mind. Like she herself said on the walima, it is all a reaction.
