Thats exactly how I feel about that particular change.

Fantastically put! This is what I wrote in another post, I am liking a lot where the story is heading!

If Zoe has taken Asad for granted, than Asad has done the same. Also the respect is not completely there from Asad's side towards Zoe...he cannot respect her opinion, he cannot respect her independence, he cannot respect the way she dresses...he passes comments all the time...calls her Misfit as a wife/ DIL and as long as that respect is not there, there cannot be love...
We have seen that Tanveer is the one who is making Zoe realize her feelings...feelings she was intentionally or unintentionally trying to avoid...I wonder how Asad will realize....😕
And I will have a problem when Asad will only realize Zoe's worth or his love for her, after Tanveer turns negative or might turn negative...I would like to see Tanveer in a positive role...without adding the negativity factor for Asad to realize what Zoe means to him....that would be like second choice
If will be great to see that Asad realizes on his own that no matter how different Zoe is from what he thought, she is no Misfit, but the one he loves and can't stay without
I don't understand why most serials always have to make the 3rd party negative in order for the leads to realize their feelings...that is why I hope Tanveer remains positive and just plays out her role to make Asad and Zoe realize their feelings

Totally agree with you here! I really hope Tanveer doesn't turn totally negative. Having grey shades is okay, it's only human. But if it takes Tanveer to become a complete vamp for Asad to realize how wrong he was about Zoya, it'll totally defeat the purpose.

Such a good analysis. I completely agree with your sentiment. I'm not mad at Asad. He is slowly coming out of his shell...like the way he tells Zoya that he was really worried about her when he saw here ipad there...awww...

I feel equally for Zoya and Asad, just in different ways.

Yupp this is my point exactly, there's no need to go hating Asad's character, he's just having such a long-drawn internal conflict that he himself isn't sure what he's doing anymore.

Waise bhi AsYa r to seperate for some tym na so better dat tym b now..

HAHA so true! I mean what's the point of an epic love story (in a Hindi daily soap to top it all off) without the separation track. It's bound to happen and we had better brace ourselves :p

I'm only mad at Asad (CVs) for his PDA and openness regardless of how extreme the circumstances were. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth when so much work has been put into building him, his eccentricities etc and they ruin it to facilitate the storyline.

The rest of his behavior- Zoya's intro for example was in tandem with his character graph. This guy justs says things as they are without embellishment. However, he is also partly to blame and it might have even been a bit intentional on his part because he is angry with her in that moment: noticehow he at once alienates Zoya by adding Ms. And Farooqui to her bame while in stark contrast, Tanveer is called Tannu. Hecould have introduced her as " Zoya, hamare rishton mein se hai." But anyway, I do not fault him for his introduction of her.

Agreed, the PDA was irksome for me too. But I think this irk was a result of my love for Asad and Zoya more than anything else. On a personal basis, I'm also a Muslim girl, and my girlfriends and I have grown up side by side with the guy group in our Masjid, so we're all childhood friends and pretty close as well. We are physically comfortable enough to exchange quick hugs even, so I guess that's why Asad behaved as such? At least when he felt Tanveer's life was in danger, which is why his relief led him to hug her, and keeping in mind that she was hurt, he decided to take her hand to lead her to the car, which isn't so bad. But what I didn't like was that he let her hold his hand in his room later on. If I use logical deduction again, then maybe he allowed her to do that because his mom and Zoya had just given him the cold shoulder and he was in need of some support. Maybe Tanveer holding his hand was just the comfort he needed, and so he let her.

I guess most of the long and sad faces here are because we are unable to bear zoya's pain. Everything turned 180 degrees in a matter of days.

Asad and Zoya's characters were built and executed carefully over 4 months. Well change is needed and inevitable, but it was at a pace where viewer can sit back and agree with the changes. But this change in Asad with T's entry is bit shocking and undigestable for most of us (at least it was for me). So is zoya's sadness. it is almost as if my own joyful and bubbly family member is heartbroken and crying and i am unable to see that.

One more thing, i agree and disagree too about asad - is what asad feels for zoya. many people here say - he is unaware of his feelings or he is in denial about his own feelings - come on, asad is not a 4 year old to not understand what he feels for zoya and the heart ache he goes through at the idea of she being in trouble.

Very true, I was literally in tears myself when I saw Zoya diving deeper and deeper into depression, with every new scene that unfolded in front of her eyes. So yeah the general sadness on the forum is inevitable. But I'm just suggesting reasons to be happy again and look forward to the following episodes (: As for Asad, I agree that he is fully aware that he is highly attracted to Zoya. But I think he believes she's wrong for him (attributed to his naturally bigoted nature haha) and so he's trying to squash the attraction and get rid of it, which is why he behaved so distant in the episode I believe. Besides, we've all experienced that in reality as well, where you've fallen for a person that you probably shouldn't have and then try all means and ways to avoid him/her and forget that anything ever happened!

Tanveer has come with a purpose, I don't know whether she is positive or negative and frankly I don't care because I know she is a temporary catalyst who is there only to bring our protagonists closer emotionally, mentally and physically. She is a passing phase in the story, not the heroine! Because of Tanveer today Zoya realised her feelings or else they would have carried just like they did before. There wouldn't have been any changes at all. Asad would be worried for Zoya & would have gone frantic and Zoya would be still relying on him and doing her best to cheer him up or help him but wouldn't have realised what she felt for him but because of Tanveer it has struck her that Mr. Khan means much more to her than mere protection and reliability factor! Jealousy in love is a tremendous feeling and it makes one go to unthinkable ends to achieve one's love...now its Zoya's turn to go and get her love back. Its for her to show what length she will go to and for us to see!

I agree there is no doubt Asad has fully fallen for her though he wouldn't admit it to even himself and deny as long as possible but his heart is winning over his head and he can't do a thing about it. And that bothers him a lot, he tries to reason against his heart but every time his heart scores a victory over his poor brain! But somehow I feel his feelings won't be a problem because if DIlshad wants Zoya as her DIL and if she asks him to marry her, he will! But I don't think his mom has to say anything, he will do every thing on his own accord when the time comes.

Its a great trick on part of the creatives to bring Tanveer to give the relationship of Zoya and Asad a name and to take it forward. I personally will sit at ease with a bowl of popcorn and will enjoy the show.

Just take it slow Creatives I want to enjoy the journey more than the destination itself. I want to see those awareness, awkwardness, conciousness, eye contacts, eye talks between Asad and Zoya before they really confess about their love. As long as you do that I will be one happy viewer. Just don't make Tanveer more important that required or any unnecessary or unwanted romance between Asad and her, rest I am game.

So far Creatives you have done a fabulous job and please keep it up! And please keep the characters consistent as well, because the day you lose the grip on characters and make overnight changes I will lose interest in the show. So far you have done a marvelous job on that regard in each and every scene. Personally for me the characters are far more important than the actors. Actors give the characters life for sure but its the characters who lives in our hearts. So a big thank you from my end.

Great post and great attitude towards the show! (: This is after all a daily soap, if there is no trouble in paradise then the love story will be really short and end really soon and we won't be left yearning for those moments that you mentioned above (: It is the journey that's worth watching for sure!

Totaly agre wid yr pst dear
