Just listened to the recording of the SMD space. They’re actually an entertaining bunch. They fangirl but provide constructive criticism…they feel balanced. A lot of their opinions align with my own. They like the general story like I do and I agree with them that it’s the post wedding episodes dragging that that kind of hindered it. I don’t mind the story either and I’m quite okay waiting for Bilal and Sadaf to find their way to each other. I don’t think the general audience likes that but I guess there are more people like me. I felt validated 😂 I thought I was just crazy otherwise
They of course liked the scene between Bilal and Sadaf in his office but I think most people watching the show liked that scene. They also like the scene where Bilal goes into Ammar’s office and I don’t hear as much appreciation for that scene in comparison but I really liked it. They liked Wahaj’s performance throughout the two episodes accept for the last bit of the drunken scene and I agree on that too. I thought he was passing out initially so I was okay with it but he’s walking around in the promo so I guess not 🤷🏻♀️
One thing that I hadn’t considered about Humsha’s sudden change of heart and shift in behaviour that they mentioned is that perhaps she didn’t realize that Ammar would be so awful to Sadaf. She believed that Ammar truly loved Sadaf and thought he would treat her well. Maybe she didn’t consider the harm in misleading her away from Bilal. Their whole marriage has been an eye opener for her. Feels a bit too sudden for me and I think they found it a bit too convenient too.
One theory I keep hearing from them is that Farzana will force Sadaf to marry Bilal because of her izzat (hate that storyline). I don’t think it will happen because it just feels too late in the game for a forced marriage followed by a journey of love. She will fall for him and I guess marriage will come at the end.
They talked a lot about callbacks to the story. There’s a ton of them and it really puts things in perspective. Again I think it would be more effective if this long Ammar/Dania storyline didn’t take over and shift the focus.
