honestly, I have never liked Asad's character...he is judgmental, extremely prejudicial, regressive in thoughts and hypocritical...I simply cannot tolerate such qualities In a man but above all I was shocked when he slapped her...that was when I completely started despising the character...but saying that I did start giving him the benefit of doubt and stated accepting him in Zoya's life because he showed signs of empathy. But, his recent interactions with Billo is probing me to think differently once again...Asad is being downright unethical here with his so called friendship...I am sorry, I grew up having very close friend who are boys since kindergarten ...some of whom are still my best friends but in no way do I hold their hands or hug them as Asad and Billo does...it's absolutely unethical and is an insult to our respectively partners.
I cannot completely fathom the fact that Asad allows Billo to touch him whenever she wants even if holding hands knowing very well how Zoya feels about it...he should be more thoughtful about the whole situation because this is a sensitive issue that his own mother has gone through. How can he even joke with Zoya on the basis of jealousy? It really doesn't matter whether we are from the western world or from the eastern...something unethical as this is wrong everywhere.
Friendship is a wonderful relationship but there has to be boundaries maintained and respected in it too. When that very friendship knowingly or unknowingly hurts your existing partners it's very important that the individual realizes it and doesn't cross their limits.
For the last couple of episodes Asad's behavior towards Billo is not that of friendship anymore IMO...to me Asad is at his hypocritical best and their relationship seems downright unethical.
I am sorry...if things doesn't change for the good...I don't think I will be able to support and rejoice in Asya's nikaah as a woman or as a viewer. I believe it's time for Asad to realize Zoya's worth and acknowledge her importance as her as his first priority or I would strongly want Zoya moving on with someone who really deserves her because at the end of the day Zoya deserves a better man than someone who walks away leaving her shattered and broken from a near death experience to his so called friend.
