You can only imagine and expect Asad and Zoe to fight like two wildcats when they are under forced arrest and their life is under the treat of swords.
Only Asad and Zoe can throw chosen insults on each-other behind bars. Expect Asad to thrash Zoe about her upbringing and expect Zoe to start on her you-are-too-traditional song while the killers outside prepare to kill them.
Only Asad can have the nerve to tell Zoe to shut up about her legal-illegal poems . And only Zoe can give him those 'are-you-for-real looks while the villain-ish inspector looks on.
Who else but Zoe can blabber about filing a case on the village orthos and the bought cops while locked in a dark room. Only Asad can use his brains to get out of the place and yet keep Zoe calm.
Lives under threat but no chance of fighting , abusing and accusing should be lost by Asad and Zoe while handcuffed to each-other. Bump into each-other, get unsettled by the physical proximity but no way are they gonna stop fighting.
Except Zoe, who will have the blabbermouth to give shocked looks to Asad at the mention of staying in one room? And if not Asad Ahmed Khan, who else can have the guts to imagine himself as the other half of the 'honeymoon couple' and Zoe's husband?
YET...
The moment those men look at Zoe threateningly , Asad puts his arm on her with fierce protection and moves her behind him , standing as her guardian and protector. Nobody gets to look at Zoe like that and Asad makes it very clear.
Asad asks no questions to Zoe when she runs away with her infamous 'Qubool Nahiin Hai' and takes her away on a bike. His first impulse is to save her and the MCP act can take a backseat which it does.
Zoe doesn't stop her desperate attempts to explain to him just so that he listens to her. His words once again make her cry. Hurt. Very hurt. But not angry for even a minute.
Asad , inspite of being angry and furious at Zoe's adventure , feeds her food with his own hands.
Zoe, for the first time, shows the shyness and awkward feminine reaction to Asad being that close to her. She is not the tigress that Asad knows in that last minute of the scene. She is a vulnerable feminine woman with a heart. And no, that doesn't escape Asad's notice at all and as though in reaction to her softness, his annoyance melts and what you see is a man capable of passionate love.
In short , consciously , Asad and Zoe are still at loggerheads where Zoe thinks Asad is being a stuck up MCP and yet seeking protection in him. and Asad thinks her to be an adventurous anti-social element but will not let any harm to come to her. Their feelings and attachment is under the layer of their ego and prejudice. Today's episode just proves that. They will go to the end of the world for each-other but not without hurling an abuse or two at each-other.
Less of AsYa today but whatever you saw of them was cute , scary and awwable at the same time.
Scenes to watch out for and the ones that would be the delight of avi/siggy makers here:
1. Asad taking Zoe away on the bike without a single thought or question.
2. Asad moving Zoe behind him when the loser men threaten to kill her.
3. Asad-Zoe's bumping , closing-in act as they try to find a way out of the dark room.
4. Asad-Zoe's whole nautanki at the reception of Apnaa Dhaba as a married couple.
5. Asad feeding food to Zoe with his own hands.
6. The whole sequence of Asad and Zoe becoming conscious of each-other as a man and a woman. Every moment was beautiful and expressions of both Asad and Zoe caught to perfection. Zoe's shyness and Asad putting her dupatta back on her while he looks at her with so much tenderness. You've just got to see it.
And to think... Asad will see Zoe being buried alive in front of him on Monday. So disturbing.
P.S- I don't want to talk about the Maamujaan household today. Seriously.
