I saw a lot of posts today making fun of Nikhat cutting her wrist over a rejection. Perhaps look at it from another perspective?
Nikhat has faced rejection many times. She's seen many of her proposals turned down before they even turned into engagements. The biggest heartbreak she's gotten till date was of course her last and final engagement breaking with Imraan. Out of her control she fell in love with Imraan. Despite the fact that she has the right to grieve over that rishta breaking, Nikhat for the most part remained strong.
Now many of you may be thinking it's silly of Nikhat to be cutting her wrist; attempting suicide over her rishta with Farhan breaking; a guy who she barely knows yet, has only talked to once. Some are saying Nikhat is being weak for doing this... but perhaps maybe that's not the reason why Nikhat cut her wrist?
Perhaps maybe Nikhat is looking at the bigger picture. It's not just that another rishta has broken for her, this is like the 5th+ time her rishta has broken. In the society that Nikhat lives in, unfortunately with the number of breakups Nikhat has gone through, everyone (well at least the wealthier families) will automatically reject Nikhat marrying their son. If Nikhat wants to get married, she will have to settle for much less (you can use your imagination what I mean by this), that's the unfortunate reality in that society.
Perhaps Nikhat is tired of her family going through the trouble of finding a husband for her. Perhaps Nikhat can't stand her parents fighting over this matter anymore. Perhaps she's done feeling a like a burden for family (that's definitely how some of her family members make her feel like). Perhaps she feels like she's doing her family a favour by trying to kill herself?
What happens every time Haseena breaks off the rishta? Her mom goes running to Haseena ready to fall at her feet and beg. What child wants to see their mother doing that? It's quite obvious this is exactly what Shireen's going to do. Perhaps Nikhat is tired of seeing her family humiliated like this? Tired of seeing her family's wealth being exploited so her marriage happens?
I know everyone has their own opinion, but I feel like Nikhat didn't take this drastic step all because "one rishta broke". I don't see Nikhat as a weak girl. I see a girl who is drained of seeing the same old events repeated so often and has come to a point where she doesn't know what to do other than hurt herself.
