In our desi culture, whenever a man is angry, hurt or confused, he has an option to go out, let out his anger and disappear for a while. Like Murtasim on the cliff.
Sadly most girls don’t have the same luxury. Meerab has tried to run away several times only to be brought back. Sometimes it’s an accident, sometimes it’s out of love (Murtasim’s accident).
Even in Karachi, her plans to vent out to Saba were ruined and she was back to Hyderabad in a day.
What Meerab is doing trusting a random stranger is stupid and dangerous but she isn’t in the right state of mind. She hasn’t had the time to process anything. Sometimes it’s Haya, sometimes Maryam, Rohail, MZ…
She still blames everyone. Meerab needs this separation to collect her thoughts. She is now realizing her feelings for Murtasim.
NM could have definitely written this track better with logic but what’s done is done.
So true.
Meerab needed a dignified moment "on the cliff" as well. I wish she said I'm leaving and give me space for a month. Or they showed her going abroad for a bit. Or even for a walk in the morning! At least going to her portion of the haveli!
Instead they made her roam the street at night like a crazy women that she's not.
I wonder how NM as a woman doesn't experience a range of emotion that a female feels.
But again I have met cruel females that can give a 1000 men a run for their money
