Wali was only 10 when he got married to Majhbeen under a miserable condition when his father was dead and mother became mentally challenged. Majhbeen took care of him like his mother. As a child he was not an adamant but sensitive one. He was scared of thunder storms. Majhbeen was a protecting figure for him. She fed him, sent him school etc. When he got to know that Majhbeen was his legal wife he was shattered. He showed his arrogance to her just to hide his inner turmoil which completely broke his mind and soul.
That turmoil you could read in his eyes he was not given any choice both the times and once he said the same to Bade Sahib that he is only puppet . He was soft spoken and naturally you get attatched to the person living with her for so many years . But there was something special in their relationship . Some unspoken bond which only their eyes conveyed
After that he was again forced to marry a girl who was much younger that him. Neelam was 17-18 I suppose. At their first meeting he understood that she was a rebel and childish. He was also annoyed with Bade sahab's orthodox advises. An Oxford educated enlightened individual was feeling completely helpless in front of such age old traditions.
Before his marriage to Neelam he was not in state to have romantic relationship with anyone. After marrige he found neelam too young to understand his problems. Despite understanding his turmoil she started feeling jealous of Majhbeen. She was suspecting about their physical intimacy. She was not in a mood to listened to anybody or to compromise with anything. In present time what we expect from our partners? That they will understand us. Marriage is not about fairytale love and having kid. Its a mature understanding between individuals where a partner understands each other from its core. Wali did not get that from Neelam. Had she been a mature girl she would definitely understand Wali's inner turmoil about Majhbeen.
Neelum was just a school girl who was trapped in this sysytem ,she was not mature and more over Bade Sahib told her that Mahzabeen is only a servant , she was rebellious and not mature as you said otherwise would have understood . she was childish and Walli kind of protecting Mahzabeen from her wrath .
On the other hand Majhbeen understood his shattered soul. That made him attracted toward Majhbeen. She was the mature part of his life. That attraction was depicted through newspaper scene, hairclip scene, garden scene very artistically. When Neelam achieved that maturity in her life Wali was no more with her then.
As i already said there was unspoken bonding between the two . Mahzabeen was mature and she was quite also Majhbeen was so important for him that he never let her go. Only when he got to know about quiseen he let her go for her happiness. When he said That app kaun si ghar ki baat kar rahi hai jo aj tak hum dono ka riste ka nam thik nehi kar paya..His inner conflict was clearly shown here. On the other hand he also said in front of bade sahab that he decided to give his mother's property to Majhbeen because this is a way of showing a sohor's love to his wife. There was an unspoken territory which he was unable to give any name. Wali was deeply hurt when he got to know about Qasim as Majhbeen did not tell him about it.
That time Walli has started taking things in his hands . Yes he was hurt that Mahzabeen did not tell him about Qasim but she might be afraid . thats why i felt there were lack of connectivity in the story . Where was Qasim and when Mahzabeen was made vani and it was kind of you mortgage a person .
Now come to Majhbeen her inner pain was clearly visible when she was talking to Amtur at time. She was punished to love a person. She was forced to marry a 10 yr old boy who does not understand what a conjugal relationship is. She played Amtur's role in his life. But after he grew up he became a Mard and their relationship changed and it became uneasy and uncomfortable for both of them. When she got to know that Wali went to kill Qaseem she said to Salima that the situation is like her to souls are fighting with each other. One whom she gave birth and another whom she nurtured. At last when Wali sent her to her son she said now I am with qaseem but u went away from me. I love both of u. She could not think a conjugal relationship with Wali as she was the one who gave him mother's love despite knowing the relationship.
Agree she nurtured him like a mother but when walli became adult and he knew that he was married to Mahzabeen ,he became protective and sometimes you could feel going on turmoil in both of them when Walli looking at her side ways or behind the newspaper . Keeping her hairpin . Equation was changed . There was something when both looke at each other quitely . Mahzabeen without his saying knew what he wanted . With Neelum it was arranged marriage where he has to compromise .
Some people say that the actress played neelam was not good. But I like her. She beautifully portrayed neelam's immaturity, childishness and insecurity. She was a pampered child, lost her father at a tender age. She was llonely in her life as none understands her. She told her mother that u snatched me from school and made me sat on marriage ground. What else can we expect from a school girl of her age? Wali understood that fact. That is why he tried to fulfill her wishes as far as possible.
I also have read comments about Neelum , she was brought up with freedom , having her own say ,just a school girl and married to a mature person . I felt bad for Neelum where she was sacrificed as a goat on the alter of system and if you look at others same happened with Mahzabeen , walli also . Walli was shown to be person of great patience ,he gave in to Neelum,s childish behavior just to make her happy . Neelum also got mature in the end and knew that Walli just did his duty as husband he did not let her down .
Walli was the most effected person in all this story . His piercing eyes leaves you numb where you can feel his hurt . That is my point of view. I know its a bit longer. Plz do comment.
