Asad & Zoya: Wounded Hearts Epi June 21 - Page 7

Hi Sangeeta,

Good to see your post! Brilliant analysis as usual!

What an episode yesterdays was! While I wasnt happy that they went for this angle in the story, yesterdays episode was mindblowing and very well done. KSG nailed it - and the last two episodes have converted me into a KSG fan!

Asad has lost everything in a matter of hours - all because of his blind faith and trust in his childhood friend. This is tragic but we always knew it was coming. There were enough references to Asads fears about becoming a Rashid. Asad will be in a difficult place the next few weeks as he will torture himself for having let everyone down. Gosh, he is a good guy with some flaws! This is not what he deserves.

If this is retribution for Asad - as the tables are ironically turned on him- and he is getting it back for how he treated Zoya earlier, I wonder will there be no retribution for characters like Razia and Tanveer. I think this extreme negativity in the show these days is what has been bugging me! ( I believe at least in fiction good should prevail over evil! )

Okay, I digress... Coming back to the episode:

Maybe the weak, spineless Rashid we see today is a shadow of his former self. I am sure Razia would have trapped Rashid the first time round also. I do think that Rashid may try piecing some bits of information that he has (about Tanveer) and try telling Asad about it.

Tanveer will try convincing Asad that something may have happened and will play on the angle that her reputation has been ruined. Think she will play her story depending on what gets through to Asad at that point in time. She will keep a route open such that she can come back after a month and claim she is pregnant! Disgusting! Here is where I would like to see a Rashid - Asad scene where Rashid shares Zoyas fears and concerns and tells him about the knife having Tanveer's fingerprints. Maybe this is when Asad goes to Ajmer?

As for Zoya, her reaction was natural. She had been stood up at the altar and she saw her fiance in bed with another woman! A sight which would make most people emotionally distraught! While she was aware of Tanveers machinations, she also had immense trust in Mr. Khan. She does not know at the moment that he is as much a victim as her. To her it seemed that Asad had given in to Tannus seduction ploys on the night of their nikah. She will listen to him, I think, once things have cooled.

You are right - Ajmer is place where the healing shall begin.

The last two episodes- I was constantly reminded of the BNHH dance sequence. We are at the moment, when the first lightening strike has occurred and Asad and Zoya have their backs to each other. Zoya turns and whispers something in Asads ear - think this would mean that while she has turned her back on to Asad for the time being, she will hear him out and will support him.

Pri and I have been discussing a lot about this and while she doesnt agree with me and has some convincing arguments for her point, I think they may be following the original synopsis.

Zoyaan might happen - probably be fake. Ayaan may also fall for her...

I must say that previously I used to cringe at that plot. However, seeing how beautifully the writers have written the show so far, I am actually excited to watch the show- no matter how they take it.

I truly 100% agree with you especially the last point you made at this point marriage really isn't the answer the trust support and friendship is and I would also prefer seeing that develop at this stage of the story.

My only concern is how they choose to treat Zoya's character now l

What you said here is true

If I know Zoya's character well, once she cools off, she will hopefully give Asad a chance to explain the details of that eventful night. She needs to realize that Asad needs her more than ever. This is not only a test of their love, but a test of their trust in each other- mohabbat aur yakeen. Ayesha bi's taveez will hopefully help them both through this crisis.

but the question then becomes is that we may think we know Zoya's character which we probably do know but is CV going to treat it right? so now the only thing i await is for Zoya to cool down and see what she decides because I know if she is on his side nothing and i mean nothing can stop things from getting better. Together they will eventually sort things out.

I also am really interested in the father son relationship now I kind of wish that Rashid now comes and talks to his son and tires to tell him that he needs to be strong so he does not end up like he did and hopefully this time Asad in his low time will actually listen to him. I am hoping in the future Rashid Ahmad Khan's both families unit and kick but!😆

Hi Sangi,

So good to see you back...are you back here in US? Great post!

It has been really a roller-coaster ride for the past couple of episodes...I would like to point out couple of points...as you mentioned that Asad needs Zoya's forgiveness and support ? But Sangi...you have to understand what this woman has gone through...the fact is she was abandoned...betrayed...left stranded at the alter...she visualized them in a bed half naked not in park...right and to top it off he walked in with the bitch slapping her on her face...it was a direct insult. Forget about forgiving ...she should be far away from him right now. She is allowed to be angry and in emotional distress...she is allowed to lash out at it. He has to earn her trust back right now...he needs to realize her value right now.

Zoya this time needs to give him an ultimatum...whether its her or his Tannu...she should make it clear that she will not return till Tannu moves out of their lives.

Now, the point you made about a plausible Asad and Billo engagement or marriage track...honestly,Mrs Gul Khan has tried to portray the much talked about scene as SEDUCTION...but it was undeniably RAPE. Does it matter whether its a woman or a man ? NO. It doesn't. Rape is a crime...the rapist shout be prosecuted and should be behind bars. Reports... data shows that most rapes are committed by the people the victim knows.

In QH Billo is a dear friend of Asad whom he trusts and respect...but instead what did she do...she drugged him and raped him. Now, the question is not whether they did it or not...the real problem here is they showed it as Seduction.

I have seen many posts with a concern that Gul might try to enforce a marriage b/w Asad and Billo or even an engagement. Now here is what is very important ...THE MESSAGE...A VICTIM should not MARRY the RAPIST under any circumstances...rape victims undergo PTSD ...they need counseling...a huge support system...lots of assurance...but the last thing they need is guilt ...the thought that in anyway they were responsible for the horrendous crime...and they definitely cannot be coerced into marrying their RAPIST to save their honor. This is not medieval or prehistoric era...this is the 21st century where there is a rape happening in every second.

With the growing rape cases in India this will be a wrong message for Mrs Khan to portray if she thinks of pursuing any kind of relationship between Asad and Billo.

Billo is a RAPIST and so if this happens there will be complains...petitions from everywhere. If I were Gul I wouldn't take that route.

mutual feelings... And everyone is justified...little did they know that Asad was raped.. No, they all jumped into conclusion that it was mutual or tanu staged it to be so... And now when zoya comes out of that shock and when she knows that Asad was a victim, then she will be the first person to embrace him... No doubts...and I am damn sure that Gul will never make jammy n tanu together again... Remember Mariam incident, asad's reaction when he came to know that his cousin was raped. It's all connected...

Zoya needs time and I hope Gul stops this jammy Tanu crap right here because now she is playing with fire...no way will any sequence where a victim marries a rapist out of guilt will be accepted...I am an active forum32 member and there is an uproar there...if gul pursues this she might as well prepare to shutdown QH.
