What I do see that she has played different types of SA/SH victims. In PKS, it was her father in law. In DZN, it was the guy whose house she was a servant in. In DSJHS, it was her mamoo (not sage mamoo). In Inkaar, it was her boyfriend. In DNUTN, she was sex trafficking victim
Maybe she wanted to play an MR victim this time. This is the kind of SA victim she has not played yet.
She has done regressive content b4. Yumna was in Raaz e ulfat which was regressive. Also, the spit and slap was not in the script. It was added in shooting - and would have had Yumna's input for sure. Even the scene where MK slapped Merub in E5, according to the director, Wahaj was against doing it but Yumna wanted that thappad scene to be in.
@bold she has to be extremely dense to think TB is gonna show her as a MR victim and will do justice to her character. She is thinking and crying for her husband who supposedly r*ped her and TB is still going as a love story with the lovers being separated. They clearly were gonna normalise MR and get away with it if it wasn't for the backlash.
