Hi guys, I have been watching Qubool Hai these days and thinking why are they hurrying to get Najma married. I mean she's too young and just out of college. Why don't they encourage her to study further or help Asad in his business. Okay, for a minute lets think that Asad n his family is conservative. But what happened to Zoya ? She is from NY no ? Neither does she talk of doing a job herself nor is she encouraging the family members to help Najma in getting a job and become independent. I thought they wanted to show that Zoya has progressive views and is modern in her outlook then why doesn't she talk about a woman building an image for herself rather than being a housewife ? Come on, nowadays every girl tries to achieve something for herself rather than getting proposals immediately after college and becoming a housewife. I am really miffed with this idea !

Thanks guys so much for your replies. I am happy at least some of you agree with me. I am doing my postgrad and I plan to get a job n be as capable of earning bread for my family as my future-whoever-husband would be. I don't want my kids to look up to their father for everything. I don't despise the idea of being a housewife. If someone likes it then its their choice. But in the show, it seems like they are trying to get rid of Najma ??? I mean at least ask her what she wants to do with her life. They are well to do, she can study further or do some job and be a strong woman. Didn't Gul's promotion for the show begin with Zoya talking about a progressive society ??? In which progressive society do u marry off a just-out-of college girl ? Najma looks so young and naive. At least let her mature and let her take things as it comes. I am disappointed with Zoya's character. I don't expect anyone else to think of it but seems like Zoya is soon turning into a run-of-the-mill bahu ! In my opinion, every woman should be given enough independence to lead her life as she wants and definitely marriage in NOT everything. Its a part of life and should not be the sole aim of life. When will these serial makers understand that we are a part of a rapidly changing society and even though we watch their shows, we will not put up with underwhelming women oriented roles. We want to see a strong woman force and how they emerge as leaders barring all odds !!!
