Has Asad really understood Zoya? - Page 2

I am sorry I disagree, this is no matter of how much one knows the other. This is a matter of concern, Asad and the Khans all of them are her family, everyone is concerned for her, but Asad's concern just pours out in anger. He wasn't angry about her going there it was about informing them that she was safe. If I was out without informing someone responsible from my family and walked in late while there was a conveyance strike outside my parents would be sick worried too and would reprimand me as well. Asad is the caretaker here, so if he reprimanded Zoya for being careless it was not because he hasn't understood her but because he loves her, he'd do that to Najma too.

I think in this case Has Zoya really understood Asad?

Yes at one time it was about his rules, but now its about his concern for her, he's always been overly possessive about his family and close ones and protective as well, I think it was necessary for her to calm down when she could see he was concerned.

Ankita, Its not easy to change overnight. and sometimes the concern and being overly poseesive can get very claustrophobic to an independant person... Zoya has been an independant person living her life based on schedules set be her. Now she has live and plan her schedules based on other people's "free" time. She sees Najma walk in and out of the house (before curfew time) without a problem. Believe me, its not easy.

Now again... did she do anything wrong, I don't think so, It was a taxi strike. Najma took the bus to college and back. Nikhat took the bus to college and back. Najma told Zoya about the bus only because even Najma thought it was ok. What Najma and Zoya did not realise was that the taxi strike could impact bus schedules. Zoya planned to come back on time. Just that the buses go cancelled.

What went wrong here... communication... Asad explaining to Zoya what a strike in India means and Zoya letting Asad know that she took the bus.

P.S I understand where Zoya is coming from... Everytime I go back to India, I start getting claustrophobic by the third day. I get smothered by it...

Its not easy for anyone to change not for Asad not for Zoya but here the argument is not about changing, its about UNDERSTANDING the concern the family has for you instead of saying you do not need them to worry about you? Its not about being independent its about understanding the concern the family has. Asad was not reprimanding her for going, it was about informing him that she is fine. If there was a strike there would be conveyance issues and the buses here indeed have only a limited of time of working btw. And she has been in India and a part of that family for too long, to not understand where the concern stems from. I think her screaming back at Asad was not justified, he shouted at her out of concern and it would be visible to a blind man as well. The words she used in retaliation have nothing to do about being smothered or feeling claustrophobic it is about being not able to take someone reprimanding you. If you're going to tell me Zoya going off without informing Asad, not informing about her wherabouts that late at night and taking a lift from a stranger is all justified and Asad shouting at her in concern is not, I don't know what to say 😊

Since you have conveniently brought up the point that she has been brought up as an indepedent lady of the states, why did she not exercise the precautions that most girls here have learned? Such as the fact that maybe she shouldn't have led the prettyboy to her house.

She's so ignorant towards her surroundings sometimes. It could be something very simple. Such as, since she didn't hear the car driving away, she should've looked back. And seen the creep starting at her booty. And then there is also a perception of surroundings. As Shru mentioned, smiling ear to ear? Really Zoya? If I were Asad, I would've blown up too.

And I definitely don't think Zoya was lightning up the atmosphere. That goodbye scene to Rajvir? It seemed as if she had completely forgotten the fact that there is a famiy waiting, worried sick out of their minds, for her.
