Well, as i think more about Asad (now, why am i thinking about Asad when i am supposed to work - too bad) this is what i draw -
More than the attraction or lover equation, Asad acts more like a father figure to Zoya - A very strict father - who wants teach the kid Tahzeeb, Tameez etc etc, in a harsh, rude manner. He had that instict with Zoya from the beginning and it grew as he learnt zoya being a parent-less child.
This nature in him was developed as he himself grew up father-less, taking more responsibility than he should for his age. He does it with everybody around him that he feels close to heart (Najma, for example).
Now he thinks of Zoya as the hyperactive kid, who needs to be put in control, who will otherwise cause lot of trouble and chaos around. And when Tanveer came into picture, he cannot stop comparing Zoya to Tanveer ( (I know it is a big no-no for parents, but almost every parent goes through this phase) . Tanveer has all the qualities he thinks are appropriate, that Zoya (his favorite) lacks. And being the strict parent, it is pricking him every second, he sees both of them in sight, he cannot help being extra rude to Zoya in the context of teaching her manners and good behaviour.
We have to remember that Asad has not remembered their night after eating bhang-pakoda, so right now, he is too involved in his parenting role (which he will continue even when they have confessed their feelings, engaged, married and even have kids of their own).
