I know everyone is going on about how selfish Ayaan is, but I don't think what he asked from Asad was him being selfish.
What is selfish is that both brothers are making choices on behalf of Zoya without even letting her decide what she wants to do with her life!
What Ayaan did was wrong, but I don't think it was selfish.
He is doing everything because he is scared his sister won't be able to get married otherwise, and would try to kill herself again. He isn't doing it for himself.
He doesn't love Zoya, he doesn't want this marriage, he is doing it for someone else. He is also sacrificing his love for his sisters life. I think people forget that he wants to marry Humeira.
Now if Asad was in Ayaan's place, would people hate him just as much as they hate Ayaan for asking for such a thing? What if Asad asked Ayaan to sacrifice his relationship with Humeira for the time being to save Najma's life, would people hate him?
My point here is that if we wanted to save the life of a loved one, we would probably do anything possible to save them, so I can understand the plight of the brothers to an extent.
My problem with this storyline is somewhat different to what other people are having.
I just find it simply disgusting that Gul can show that a woman has absolutely no value whatsoever, she is simply a object that is to be passed around for the sake of others. Zoya doesn't seem to have a choice. Asad is telling her to do this thing for his sister, at least Ayaan is asking. What does Gul think? A man can tell a woman to do anything and she must oblige even if her heart is not in it? And seriously I thought Zoya was a modern girl with intelligence, why doesn't she speak up?! Why doesn't Ayaan and his family find someone else for Nikhat? What is Gul trying to show? That you can only get married if you're fair! I'm an Asian, and I know that most Asians are slightly dark-skinned, but they still get married!
Maybe this storyline would be more digestible if I thought Zoya wanted to do this for Nikhat on her own accord, but that's not what is being shown. Yes Zoya usually tries to help others and maybe would in this situation, but that is not what is being shown. She is being cornered and coerced into it.🥱
