Hi Priyanka...so glad your out here today!I am seething with absolute rage...I know this is just a fictional show,but come on...what message are they trying to give out?Why glorify this kind of violence as a man's passion,angst.pain or whatever you want to call it.You are very right in saying that it always starts off with a slap or a push and then going on to think that it's license of their rights to carry out this sort of violence.Priyanka I work with women who suffer at the hands of domestic on a daily basis too and to see all this up close and personal is not a very nice thing.These women suffer terribly physically and mentally and it's so easy for people out here to say that the situation was such that it was justifiable but try putting ones self through a situation like this and then say it's justifiable!What's more upsetting is there are women out here trying to see it in a light hearted and even in a humourous light and saying that Zoya going to console him was just not good timng.He could atleast just shouted at her stated the fact that he thinks it is all her fault for his mother's condition, but no...it had to be taken on another level and that was no little slap,that was more the fact that he full fledgedly hit her, and that too,with such force that I couldn't stop myself from shuddering.After Asad's first sct of agresion/violence of holding Zoya's neck, I really was hoping not to see the same sort of thing repeated again by Asad.I rwally dnt know what to make or think of Asad's character anymore...even if he is shown to repent later...is it really going to make everthing alright?

If Zoya has any self respect left she really needs to walk out of the Khan household asap!


Second that! Hate that they're palming off domestic violence in the name of passion!

There are so many ways of expressing anger. And lashing out physically at someone is not the right way of doing it.

I'm disgusted the more and more I think about this.

hi Shazie dear...gosh...seriously ...I am seriously upset...how are they showing such violence in the national television in India...keeping in mind whenever happens with most women there...shouldn't the be some kind of censorship to violence...at-least there should be a rating system.

Shazie...I am afraid that ppl who are trying to justify his acts has no idea what real women go through out in the real world...I just cannot fathom the fact that the outlook of behavior towards women hasn't changed.

I am extremely disappointed with QH...I think I will stop watching it if Zoya doesn't walk out that house.

You know what... I don't mind now if Asad and Zoya aren't a couple. If Ayaan treats her better, then maybe it's best she's with him.

i dont want to make it personal , but anyone who wants to justify a dark character capable of violence against women as a forgivable and redeemable character is doing a great disservice to women. it is people like this who encourage violence against women in society. if the hero is doing this, then he must be followed. and this is not an attempt to show what happens. it might happen. but then those people cannot be eulogized as the hero. they must then become the villain. is AAK now the official villain? and if the show means to show others how to react in such situations, then the reaction of the forum is apalling me beyond measure. most women, mind you, women are defending him as being under grave duress. what can be said?

exactly...I remember I mentioned that in one of my previous posts...a woman should not be in an abusive relationship period...this is when the pattern starts and once she gets in it's very hard to come out.

Honestly...right now I just want her out of that godforsaken house...she needs to walk out of that house ASAP. I never had a problem with Ayaan and Zoya relationship. I am all for it but first things first...she needs to walk out.

exactly...so rightly said...it's appalling how some are defending him...the message should be that under no circumstances violence is justified ...but in this case it is been promoted as such as impulsive behavior in the time of duress and Ms Khan has earlier promoted such be ior as passion.

There's nothing wrong. If it's ok for a women to slap a man then why is it not ok for a man to slp a women.

I'm sorry you feel ths way. It's not about a man slapping a woman. Either ways, physical and mental abuse is WRONG!

If a man or woman resorted to violence in self defence, I can understand. But not in this case. Even if Zoya had done the same in this case, I would to have condoned it.

But showing something like this sends a VERY WRONG MESSAGE!
