Can you please make a separate post before this spirals out of control? May be it will settle down here itself...wishful.

I really felt the same- hindustan is not a term used in secular India. Being a non- muslim, it still is a jarring word for me- for the same reason- it has been abused politically a lot, to segregate our nation by BOTH RELIGIONS..

And I sincerely felt, when this aunt spoke, she was probably speaking like an illiterete person who often confuses HINDUSTANI for hindu- because of the same origin...no offence meant to any one..

Also, in this post many people have objected to why a muslim woman cannot wear saree?- it was worn in a way a hindu lady would and with the sindoor- so I was not really offended by it or found it out of place.😊

Yes, you are probably right technically but the aam janta doesn't go by technicalities...

Here is wikipedia's version:

People[edit]

Main article: Hindustani people

In its current usage in India, the term 'Hindustani' refers to an Indian, irrespective of religious affiliation.

Chicksoup...this will not spiral out of control. It's a blunder by the writers. Nikhat said it and not the auntujee. Nikhat is an educated lady. We are not talking about technicalities here but common usage...

Saree and sindoor comment doesn't bother me but this does as there is already so much misconception about different communities in India.Zee should have noticed it

So true Bheegi! The blunders they are making and the numerous loopholes are taking away from the quality.

Why introduce the Ajmer track as a place where someone goes and their wishes are fulfilled, they don't return empty handed, they get all the happiness and then send Asad back sad and crying.

They should refrain from making such claims if they are not going to follow through with it. It hurts people's sentiments and it is wrong on their part.

My only hope is that since Asad felt Zoya's presence today and heard her maybe? He decides to stay back and tells billi to go. Billi would go thinking Zoya is dead. They may go straight to AsYa coming home together and show the reconciliation scene as a flashback which is also fine. But bottom line is if they claim that Ajmer is a place where prayers are answered then Asad's prayers should be answered!

niki... Stop expecting from people who just like to run behind money...till the time I saw today's precap I had a slightest hope... I tried and tried and came with different scenerios... And I'll wait for few more episodes... If they didn't show anything positive about Ajmer even a flashback is fine... If not it is better to quit...
