Chalk and Cheese or Two sides of the same coin called woman – Zoya and Tanveer of Qubool Hai
Chalk and Cheese? Tanveer and Zoya of Qubool Hai
Man maketh the clothes or clothes maketh the man? Appearance of a person can lead to a perception, however do one's clothes be the parameter of one's thinking? Should one dress the way one is or the way one wants to be perceived? In Qubool Hai, we recently saw that at Quran Khawani, Zoya Farooqui (Surbhi Jyoti) was put down by some women for the way she was dressed. She was perceived to be inappropriately dressed for the occasion. And Dilshaad Ahmed Khan (Shalini Kapoor) had not only defended her but also raised a question if what one wears determines one outlook?

Does wearing certain type of clothes create a perception that may classify one in certain category of person? For example Traditional or Modern? Zoya Farooqui wears jeans and kurtis, though every inch of her body is covered, a traditional person might consider this to be a modern dressing which is not Indian culture.
Tanveer (Nisha Nagpal) wears traditional clothes. She is perhaps then perceived as a traditional lady. However, does one's attire make one's personality? Yes and no.

Asad Ahmed Khan (Karan Singh Grover) is a traditional man. His clothes however do not reflect that. His ideal woman is a traditional woman who dresses conservatively, soft spoken and biddable. Tannu is just that. Zoya however is antithesis of all that he likes in a woman. She wears modern outfits, is outspoken and a rebel. He dislikes her. Or so he thinks. But, his heart has not heard his head. He had admitted to it himself.

Zoya and Tanveer are two women who represent the two sides of a woman, the traditional and the modern. We at Forum 32 would like to know which one of them do you identify with most?
