I wrote this on LaVita's post cz I loved it so sharing it here cz it totally fits n mirrors ur views (I think). I totally love ur post too, btw 😃
OMG...I soo love wt you've written!! I totally feel and think the exact same way abt each n every bit that you've said in your post. Honestly, I didn't focus that much on the Rashid-Shireen scene or even the Haseena crap but did watch enough to get an idea abt each. So yea, I also felt bad for Shireen n totally got pissed at Najma cz she obv knows how Haseena is n the fact that she's been involved in all of these scenarios should have been a tip off. I also felt that Najma won't slap her in the precap wala scene esp cz everyone is expecting it even Nikhat if u look at her expressions. As for Raashid, u totally said exactly wt I felt so not really gonna get into it cz seriously, he doesn't even deserve to be talked abt. Btw..Vaquar did a brilliant job of portraying the sick, selfish n disgusting man that Rashid is.
As for my fave part/scene/actor/character, of course its all Asad!! Karan never ceases to amaze me n today once again he proved us fans are right in supporting and loving him. He really doesn't get enough due for his talent cz his looks often take precedence but I'm glad ki he's started to get his due. Anyway, Asad..man my heart broke for him from the precap n I absolutely luved to see our purana wala sher Asad bk in full form in today's epi. It was brilliant and mindblowing!!
As for Zoya, once again, you totally said wt I felt. I always thought that her love was less cz I always felt ki Asad completely understood her (once he accepted his love n esp after whole Tanu incident) but always thought her love and understanding of him wasn't as much. Then I realized ki its not that her love isn't as much, its that her love is immature and sort of like a child's ki you only see it thru one way and dont understand or want to understand the depth/layers. I felt the same way during the whole Najma vs. Nikhat deal ki she didn't come close to understanding wt the siblings from the SM family meant for him. Even during the whole Zoyaan n Asad "trading" her, honestly, I understood Asad's thought process and sympathized with him. Shud he have done that? I honestly don't know. Obv in real life, a lot of things cud be done but for a show, it made sense to me. Cz for him, it was all abt saving Nikhat's life n wt was the right thing to do at that point n he had belief that their love wud survive it. Of course, now Zoya is top priority for him n above all else but at that point, he still had to consider the rest of the family. Wt didn't make sense is Zoya didn't understand where Asad was coming from. She didn't understand that for Asad, Najma n Nikhat mean exactly the same n are as important. I feel if it was abt Najma, Zoya wud've been more willing n understanding cz she considers Najma as her own sister which cud clearly be seen when she left her own wedding w/o telling anyone (which still I don't get why she cudn't just tell Asad) as well as during the whole Najma-Imran-Nikhat angle. For this situation, as well, I feel Zoya will not understand the depth of Asad's pain n will support/comfort him but will also sunaofy him for giving ultimatum to Dilshad as well as not understanding his mother etc. I just hope she does it later on rather than right after the incident. After the incident, I want a scene like we had after the Gudiya saazish expose, both when she climbed in thru the window as well as when she breaks open the door n bandages his hand. I really liked the way she comforted n consoled him in both those scenes n really hope we get those type of scenes right after the incident n then maybe the nxt day or something, she starts to explain n calm Asad although I personally feel ki Asad is totally justified in being pissed not sure abt ultimatum but def right in feeling betrayed n pissed n wanting to protect his mom from a world of hurt she's gonna go thru in SM. I luv Asad for that.
P.S. Sorry for rambling on n giving such a long post but I was glad to finally find someone who is totally on the same level n thought process as me so got carried away 😉
