Is it a possibility that Asad that day finally figured out why Zoya had left the Khan Villa abruptly on the wedding day? He looked disturb... was it because of Najma and the realization that Zoya is in this mess coz she wanted to help his sister. Was that the reason behind his changed demeanor when Zoya asked if he was fine? The fact is that it's after Nikhat's wedding that Asad has become all the more vocal about his feelings, miserable and edgy... is it only because of the extended deadline or also because he now knows that to save Najma, Zoya not only put her happiness but also her life at stake.
