I feel he intentionally played Zaid this way and to me it was very in line with his character. He didn’t have many lines or any way of sharing his point of view so I feel like people think he just didn’t try. The whole point of his character to this stage is that he’s kind of had blinders on. He’s jumping into action now. I can’t figure out how else he should have played him. Maybe it wasn’t a likeable character to most. Not getting his point of view can make it hard to empathize with him. He needed lines earlier for his perspectives I suppose.
You know I was really excited to see him in a gray character because I thought that his character in mpht was very vanilla type and that will be compensated here but nope badar screwed here even more
There was absolutely no character arc of zaid, neither his character traits were explored...he was just shown as a pendulum oscillating between his family and ayra
And even if he had less scenes atleast by being well groomed and well styled we could have enjoyed just seeing him onscreen but even in that department he let down.
He's living in a huge posh house and driving around in expensive cars like Audi and Mercedes but the aura and attitude of coming across as a rich spoilt brat was missing...
I feel in fitoor he played the same guy but in a better way, the swag the attitude his styling everything was top notch in that show and part of it credit goes to siraj as well..even there he wasn't given much ss but whatever scenes he was given he aced all of that.
