Hi my fellow friends!
I know this is such a small thing and not a big deal at all but I just wanted to clarify that her name is Najma not Nazma. I know she's a fictional character so it shouldn't even matter but for some weird reason it's becoming a pet peeve for me so I thought why not clarify. I'm not sure if Nazma is a name, can anyone let me know if I'm wrong? Love you guys! And yes, I know it's not a big deal but still.

I will tell u the reason y it happens 😊

In hindi, there's no letter for J sound, so mostly ppl in India speaking hindi gets confused with names, words having J sound. In hindi, they pronounce J as Z like Zindabad as Jindabad, Zulm as Julm, Zafar as Jafar. That's where J has come from 😉

But if the actors r suppose to speak in urdu they should pronounce words n names properly coz no matter where u live if u speak urdu u should speak it properly.

Haseena kept calling her Nazma, I dunno if that was a blooper due to the actress or was it on purpose? What ever was the reason, it annoyed me so much -_-

I just hate it when the cast themselves cannot say the characters name. Everyone pronounces it NaJma, but Haseena and Tanveer seem to be the only ones who can't psay the J and says Z
