It can really be interpreted as the strength of this romance and elevate Murtasim's character and the love he has for her a lot more. It also gives certain depth to their lovestory, since it can be interpreted as something going beyond just looks and more towards the kind of woman Meerab is, which in his words, she is strong-willed, a fighter, a haq ke liye ladne waali ladki. In episode 21, he specifically says, 'tum mujhe aise hi pasand ho' when she says I cannot be the typical caring wife.
I hate that this dialogue got ignored because of the kheer romance. That scene began really well. This is what happens to a show when it so scrutinized for the romance, and everyone on social media is ready to pounce on it with their stupid takes. Age shaming and Body shaming is going on in full swing, on both Instagram and Twitter.
I, for once, don't think this type of chemistry could have been created with any other actress, even if it remained the same scenes and the same hero. Yumna has brought her own details to Meerab, which I doubt others could have done. Meerab is bold, fiesty, quick to snap, can flirt on par with her husband, has a wall built around herself, and is right now, emotionally not available to everyone.
I like Sajal, but we don't know the kind of chemistry she can create with Wahaj. Yes, shr could've surely brought that glamour quotient to Meerab. But not everytime, two very good looking people can create such hot chemistry, so I cannot comment on their pair. Yumna and Wahaj clicked with everyone even during DNUTN. Tere bin just took that forward.
