How can CVs justify ASAD being a MCP?

Really, now. How can the creatives justify Asad to be a MCP(male chauvinist pig)? Because, lets face it, for the past week, we haven't seen anything that tells us otherwise.

Interesting, great analysis!

Man! I totally agree! I find this characterization totally absurd...there are a lot of other ways they could have shown Asad and Zoya's contrasting personalities...to me it's lazy thinking. they took the most obvious and easy way out...

well there are many ways to look at a situation like this. on one hand his mother brought him up so we would obviously think he should treat women as equal to him. But there is also a factor where since his father left them he felt the need to be the man of the house and protect his mother and sister. I think thats where he gets his MCP from. Also culture plays a role in this where he feels girls have a certain role in families/society. his attitude makes complete sense to me.

I thought they are portraying Asad as an orthodox person...not justifying him.

The character of Asad is obnoxious, but not very far from reality. I know a few people in real life who have the same thinking pattern as Asad's (not that it is acceptable).

I have a hunch that Asad will have to go trough hell to get back Zoya, because of his puritan mentality and actions. The current track is just a tip of the iceberg. Zoya is not paying heed to the insult because she is too eager to find out Dilshad's attacker. Once that is accomplished...she will simply walk out.

Let's wait and watch.

I think clothes and all his restrictions are just for being protective as he is the only one to do so against 3 females that too in insecure peacetime Bhopal(as being shown otherwise I don't know)...nd also zoyas understanding that fact after so much ups and down...so she respects him...yea sometime it's to much but that's against him...coz of his hiding feelings to being aangry completely justifies the situation of what he gone through...may be it's his way of interpreting his life plus all situations of fights, eveteasing justifies of him being protective nano doubt all 3 understand him anyway...yea this may lead to split between Asia...but I m sure he will change his judgemental attitude for sure after failing for Zoya ...well his ammo also wants so and his amid knows of him being Lil bit conservative and traditional which will soon change for good after intense mitwa moment...
