That's the reason I said costars and not friends. I know it's clear him & Ayeza aren't friends and obviously her handle is managed by her team. Still in my opinion, his team should acknowledge if his costars are tagging him. I don't understand his team's limits anyway bcz they don't seem apt to me. Don't know how to handle.

From what I have heard, Samra manages his contracts and stuff but he handles his own IG. Hence the views/likes on the sad songs & shayari; the follow/unfollow khel with the wife; the captions riddled with spelling errors; being late, etc.

I feel the credit for success is going to Ayeza while the burden of its failure is assigned to Wahaj. Wahaj is being held up as everything that is wrong with Mein while Ayeza is being held up as its redeeming quality. I really think this show dented Wahaj's stardom in worst ways possible. Because of how lacklustre he was in Mein and how bad Mein was, he was not able to convert Murtasim fans into Wahaj fans, which led to a huge drop in his hype. Right now, even his credibility and craft are questioned by everyone. A year ago, no one would say wahaj has bad script choice or he cannot act or he is not committed or sincere in his craft, but that's what Mein has given him.

Agree with this but it is failure of Wahaj's team. Ayeza did what a professional actor would do and people are talking about her clothes, media articles were spread about those clothes before release and after reading those articles, people started talking about those, that's how a good PR team functions. Wahaj has completely distanced himself from the project. The least one can do is look presentable on screen if nothing else, even actors playing servants are well groomed then his PR went on to abandon 2 successful dramas. Mein is recieving good TRPs and is doing very well, why not celebrate it?

He’s literally dressed up as Zaid but doesn’t acknowledge the character. Zaid on the yacht - still nothing 😂 I don’t think it’s a passive aggressive thing. He still seems cordial with Badar. And the BTS from Mein has shown some wholesome moments on set too. He also has the collab posts with Ayeza up.

I just think it’s a PR thing and he’s kept the audience reaction and critic reaction to his performance and character in mind. Name one critic who has appreciated him in this drama. There are none. Everyone has only one thing to say - he’s wasted in this drama. And most of them are not even understanding the character of Zaid because he’s hardly there. I’ve seen critics appreciate every character from time to time but when it comes to Zaid they’re just like 🤔

And he is someone who always takes feedback very seriously. His PR probably thought the smartest way to go about it is to not bring something he’s being criticized for even more into the limelight. He was all into TB when it aired - his SM was full of fanart, reviews, fanvideos etc etc - but over the summer he’s had a more cautious approach and does things selectively.

Also I think switching camps to Geo and 7th sky might have something to do with it. Channels compete so perhaps it’s a camp thing 🤷‍♀️ But mostly I think he’s just being very cautious on SM and selective

I never said it was a passive aggressive thing

See every actor's gonna have those characters which either don't get appreciated by the public or it just doesn't work. Still as an artist, its important to stand by them. After all, the actor chose it. His collab posts are what Ayeza put up right. So that's her doing. He could have done something. If he could put up the photoshoot pictures, the least he could do is just put a mein or zaid hashtag.

If the audience hasn't liked him something was lacking, because the other characters worked. Zaid anyway doesn't have much to do but Wahaj didn't even seem into it.

There are so many actors who have done roles which critics and a certain section of audiences have literally thrashed. The kind of posts and tweets I had seen were absolutely terrible. But they still stood by their character and show throughout and had the last laugh when the TRPs and trends were at an all time high.

And lets not forget critics have their own biases. If their favourites underperform they will either ignore or not say a word. But if its an actor who doesn't go out of the way to make them feel special, they'll be vicious. I have instances of Aamna and Hasan doing this on a regular basis.

Whatever his PR team is dictation him to do - as an artist you either stand for your project or then don't sign on. Its as simple as that. Because now it looks like he will only do this if his characters get some sort of appreciation...since the same thing happened during MPHT. At the end of the day, Mein's got the numbers and its a clean hit. Once the show is over and the general public (not fandom related) look back, it'll be remembered as a known hit show. For Ayeza, Wahaj, and everyone else.

I don't think camp switching is such a big thing. Wahaj had Tere Bin and MPHT on air simultaneously right. Even the filming had overlapped. Had 7thsky been so strict, Wahaj would probably only be doing shows with them...and had like a 3-show deal or something. And we wouldn't have Durefishan promoting both Ishq Murshid and Khaie equally. Because if 7thsky was the problem, then they would have had Dure post lesser about IM or even stopped altogether.

I hope it has 4 more episodes left I don't want an abrupt ending..Zaid needs to decide about his future with both his wives.

Most likely Zaid’s biwis will decide for him 😂😂

He will just be paralyzed still. One he has promised not to divorce and the other he married himself and now she has suffered too much. If he abandons either now he’ll just be a douche
