In real life, I wouldn’t give two @#$!’s about Murtasim Khan and his Khandan. No matter how nice he is, or how hot he is. All my sympathies would go towards Meerab, because her situation is inexcusably messed up and unacceptable. I would tell her to leave with her friends as soon as she safely can, become a lawyer, and never look back. There would be zero fantasizing about any contract breaking, and I would say sorry dude…as nice as you may be, as charming as you may be, ya can’t cage someone into your life, whether it was your choice or not. Too bad, and so Sa(a)d for you. Try Haya.
But thank god this isn’t real life because I’m watching this show as a distraction from real life and its harsh realities.
I have come to accept that I 🙋♀️ have become a pure grey character just like the supporting characters of TB (and by supporting, I mean anyone but god Murtasim Khan the Great.) Grey in both my changing bipolar opinions about characters, and also grey in my willingness to put Khan-man’s greatness ahead of Meerab’s unfair and devastating circumstances (due to the gaping holes-filled, one-sided script and shoddy editing). And honestly, I’m not going to feel bad about it - this is the writer/director/producer’s fault. I’m just a spectator watching their show for entertainment 🤷♀️ and I don’t want to put effort to feel something other than what they are putting effort to show. (They get paid for their effort, I don’t.) If I’m finding Meerab to be overly irritating/bnoxious lately, that’s on Khan for being so over-consumingly perfectly written, and not me!
This is a hyper-fantasized story with a precisely crafted fantasy rich male unicorn of a man, with “many properties” (Hassan 😂 ), and the UNREAL ability to be both a dashing sakht londa (complete w/ andaar ka janwaar) and a sopping sensitive saad at the same time. In this crazily concocted Tere Bin universe, the writer has written that Murtasim Khan can seduce all the logic and morals outside of your brain and heart (and other feelings out of other places 😂) and he has 🤷♀️. I have become totally giraftar-ed in his love for Meerab (why hasn’t she?!) and have fully hawale-d myself to his advances. My brain has been completely shuttered embraced by his magnificent shawl. And again, due to the grey shades I sport while watching this show, even that opinion of him may change episode by episode 😎
And it’s ok, I’m ok with it. This show is no DNUTN, and I’m ok with that to be honest! I am enjoying the cooky non-sensical ride! I will continue to enjoy the one-sided, but still beautifully romantic show. Even Khan Saab the All-Everything can’t create the chemistry without Yumna, and I’m here to watch their insane 🔥. It is what it is, I guess.
