AsYa- Sexual tension and awkwardness

Classic example- You have a family friend. Known him for say 5-7 years. You crush on him. You don't reveal your innermost like towards him and so when he/she is around you become conscious, there is sexual-tension and any communication other than the ordinary creates awkwardness. In such a state, when you introduce that crush of yours to your other friend you'll obviously introduce him/her as your FAMILY-FRIEND and not YOUR friend as such!


Guys please be a bit realistic when you start analysing relations than just making a statement that Zoya is sad, alone and left-out by Asad and that Asad messed up the whole introduction. If you ask me what Asad did was right. Zoya and Asad are not even on first-name basis. They 'like' each other but aren't aware of what exactly they feel for each other and whether they actually do have a RIGHT over each other. This creates a sexual tension. A boy girl like each other but don't express it freely. And since they aren't assertive about their feelings their conversations about each other are bound to be awkward. How in god's name are they supposed to tell others that we are friends when they don't even address each other on first-name basis. Let them be more open about their feelings to each other and until then the sexual-tension will make Asad be only on 'she's-my-guest' terms with her. Irrespective of how he feels for her.

And guys please remember you always feel awkward around the people you LIKE and are hesitant to take initiatives especially when you are an egoist. Considering this it's very natural that Asad and Zoya behave 'close but distant' with each other.

I thought of writing this many a times but didn't seeing the mood of the forum. Perfectly put and I agree with every word.

100% percent. But I would have liked if he said "humari dur ki rishtedar" rather than "ammi ki dost ki rishtedaar".

TBVH, I am mad at Asad and I don't even know why. He's not wrong at all. I think I am upset that he thinks so low about her. He said she's not capable of being a perfect DIL for any family. That was downright degrading. I understand why he said and knowing him he would but that doesn't make him right. There's a difference between understanding and being right. I understand where he's coming from but he's wrong. One hing I appreciated was the brutal honesty. After that, I was scared for the outburst once he finds out the truth but he didn't yell. I was shocked but I'm glad he didn't yell. But in Friday's episode, he did nothing wrong. He showed his concern and felt guilty. There's nothing he did wrong and I don't think he said anything wrong while introducing two ladies. She is a guest at his house. It hit Zoya hard because she's realizing her feelings. BUT the thing is yesterday the episode was more from Zoya's POV, which makes viewers feel Zoya's pain and get upset with Asad and Tanveer because they are the reason of her pain even though they are not. It's her insecurity and feelings that are adding up to her pain. So personally, I don't hold Asad responsible but Friday's episode was executed so well and Surbhi's acting was top notch. SO one can't help but feel her pain and hold Asad and Tanveer responsible for her pain especially Tanveer even though she did nothing wrong. And the actress playing the role is just adding to this dislike. She's so boring to watch.

I thought and felt the same and personally I would have done it too if I was Asad. They don't have a name for their relationship to themselves, what will he tell others? Now the stage of love, most favorite of mine, has begun - the eye contacts, the eye talks without saying anything. Each will follow the other with their eyes.

I am loving the way the story is going. Even the confession of Asad in his intoxicated state blew me away. I want to applaud the dialogue writer whoever he is for making it so heart felt and honest.

It wasn't a proposal as many said but a confession and along with it he is trying to find an answer for himself. I am just talking about when he asked Zoya why he likes her, feels attracted to her, why he dreams of her and why does she make him wonder about her in his lonely moments. That was AAK, totally, utterly and brutally honest. I would not take anything else from him. He was not flowery in language, didn't shower with compliments on Zoya but yet he has fallen for her and to his own bewilderment he is trying to find an answer for himself. If he is honest enough to put his father behind bars, honest enough to stick to his gun even after being slapped and reprimanded by his mother whom he worships, if he is honest enough to tell Ayan that he will choose his mother over him because he loves her most then in love too we should expect his brutal honesty.

Other thingshe said I was not too fond of but this particular part blew me away. And even his calling her a misfit was honest because with someone like AAK, Mr. Prim and Proper, you expect some one similar but as we all know opposites attract. But that dialogue was well carried out and shown to us, the audience, what the truth is but where we are heading!

And this reflects when she fell on his shoulder and went to sleep. Look at Asad very carefully, for a second he frowns thinking what is she doing and then he falls back and laughs and then after a moment of hesitation he gives in to his weakness and keeps his head on hers. It was a brilliant touch, a cherry on the icing! The whole dilemma and turmoil within him shows in that one second gesture. He is trying to hear to the voice of caution but his heart is inching towards the forbidden and that is what he meant when he said that he can't be carried away by emotions but has to be practical but sure enough his heart is winning! I loved, loved, loved it!

Creatives a big round of applause for you all. Only one request please don't show us romance or forceful unwanted engagement or marriage here between Asad and Tanveer. Otherwise I am game.

Thank you Tanya for this lovely post.

You yourself have put it brilliantly! Agreed with whatever you've said. The dilemma, the inner-conflict faced by Asad was all shown to perfection. 👏
And thank you, the pleasure is all mine😉

agree with u...well said...👏

Well yeah maybe he should have or maybe he shouldn't have. Kabhi kabhi at that moment aap jyada soch nahi pate. He wasn't prepared and in that awkward situation he just said whatever first that came to his mind. And we all know for a fact that Asad considers her as a close someone in reality and not just "ammi ki door ki rishtedaar"
