'FAKE' article dissected.

Mumbai: Oops! Zoya-Asad lost second chance to marry, thanks to wily Tanveer! Such worn-out twists and turns are spoiling 'Qubool Hai', otherwise an entertaining show. But its writer-director-producer Gul Khan doesn't think so, as she has her finger on audiences' pulse and adds that real twist is yet to come.

First Tanveer's manipulation stopped Asad, played by Karan Singh Grover, from reaching the venue to marry Zoya (Surbhi Jyoti), and Zoya is so heartbroken that she runs away to Ajmer to nurse her wounds.

Guilty and concerned, Asad tracks her down and the two reunite in Ajmer.

To make an impact, the show's writer-director-producer Gul Khan took the pain of travelling to Jaipur, Ajmer and Pushkar to shoot at real locations, including the areas around Sufi shrine of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti in Ajmer, in scorching heat with the lead actors, and it paid off well with TRPs soaring.

Now, when the two sorted out misunderstandings between them and agreed again to marry, Tanveer, played by Amrapali Gupta with aplomb, struck back with another devious plan and succeeded in stopping the wedding once more.

So far, so good...we know the story!😉

Why Asad, an astute businessman, remains nave towards his deceitful childhood friend Tanveer's tricks?

Pat came reply from Khan: "Because I want him to be like this."

👏 Atta girl, Gul! It is your story- obviously, the hero will be the way you want him!😳😆

Tell her that such melodramatic turn of events have become common on the small screen, and she dismisses it saying: "It's rating well. We are catering to masses who do not identify with high-class realism. They need to see high-voltage drama and emotions."

So, I agree with Gul- the much despised SR has brought her good trps...👏 Can any of us deny the pull of these scenes??? It would have been impossible if Gul had gone for realism.😳

"If the ratings are not coming, you have to shut the show," she added matter-of-factly.

Agreed! Ms. Khan!😳

She revealed that soon Tanveer will be exposed and they will show reason behind her bad behaviour. She added that 'Qubool Hai', which has completed about 190 episodes, is essentially not about love.

How much of Tanveer will be exposed? I think only the murder attempt will be exposed...may be not the truth about that night...Gul will have Asad's responsibilty for the child of a mother he hates keep AsYa away...😭 And of course, that exposure has to be another major track- can't come soon, I suppose😉 (Think- if Zoya getting to know Tanveer is pregnant, came in 3 steps, how many more steps until she realises Asad is not the father?😆)

ESSENTIALLY👏 not about love- please note the point- that is Gul's answer to people who call QH part 2 of IPK. IPK and Geet were ONLY love stories- QH was never advertised to be, will never be JUST A LOVE STORY!👏 It hasn't been, until now. At least some of us are pulled in ALSO by the bromance, father- son friction etc.😉

"The real story will begin after 200 episodes. Right now we are just setting up. The real story is not about Asad-Zoya, it is about the clash between the two brothers - and we are soon going to show that," she said and added that the show will have a long run on the small screen and the real concept will open up soon.

2. Clash between two brothers...KSG mentioned that the Ayan post Vikrant entry is not the old Ayan. Ayan has gone thru his set of trials now, has grown mature to blame himself for Humeira's fate...the two brothers have and WILL ALWAYS differ at one point- RASHID AHMED KHAN. We saw a glimpse of that in the Rashid jail seq- GUL HAS MENTIONED IT IS NOT ESSENTIALLY A LOVE STORY- MEANS- IT IS ESSENTIALLY NOT A LOVE TRIANGLE EITHER- Zoyan would be part of a love story still.😉 To Make it clearer- if Zoyan was a major 'hipoint', she'd have called it essentially a love story.😉So a huge part of the essence is the SAUTELA - SAGAI..something she wants to revisit soon...HOW? we will have to wait and see.

Set in Bhopal, the show highlights two different sensibilities and schools of thought through two families.

If Asad's family is modern and educated, his dad Rashid (Vaquar Shaikh), who abandoned his mom Dilshad (Shalini Kapoor Sagar) many years ago, to marry Shireen (Shabnam Sayed), lives with his in-laws who are conservative and orthodox.

Khan, who produced 'Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon' and ongoing series 'Arjun' under the 4 Lions Films, is from Jabalpur, a small town in Madhya Pradesh, and lived in a joint family, therefore, she was keen to tell this kind of story.

"It is very natural for me to tell the story. I wanted to capture a family where 'sage-sautele hote hain'. Children are close to each other, but elders are bickerish."

She has brought her real life experiences through two families.

"In every family you have relatives who have studied abroad and have modern thinking and there are people who have lived in small town and are conservative," she said.

Khan says that the female lead Zoya is her own reflection.

"Actually she is completely me - a girl caught between traditional values and modernity and trying to find a balance," said Khan and added that as far as Asad's character is concerned, she had seen guys like Asad around her.

"I have met guys who are well-to-do, educated but at the same time when it comes to their women, they are conservative...," she added.
