It's mostly when someone points out her fault that she starts feeling guilty. She is so out of touch with even herself that when she falls in love, don't expect her to act like a normal girl in love. She will go about it in a borderline psychotic way. And you're going to witness some serious denial. I swear no fictional character has frustrated me as much as her to date!And I know Farah gets a lot of flak for her personality flaws but I feel Afzal is pretty selfish himself. The only difference is that his selfishness is driven by his love whereas her selfishness is driven by her sense of self importance. And that he usually takes the high way of honesty whereas she plays dirty games. In his obsession with Farah, he does everything as a reaction to what she does, hurting his own family in the process, and for no fault of their own. In fact, both he and Farah will be putting their families through hell in their little game with each other. They'll both not even think twice before using other people's genuine emotions to get back at each other. All this actually makes it a very fascinating love story.
This is so true! Farah is one complex character, she's so difficult to understand and that is what I loved the most about her. She makes you angry as hell but she makes you think as well. She makes you want to analyze her 😃 I don't think people can see any good in her at the start of the drama because I remember when I started watching it, I made it through the first half through my sheer love for Afzal 😆 Of course the families, the acting and the dialogues helped big time but I loathed Farah. And usually when I hate any one of the leads, it puts me off that serial but there is an attractive quality to her character as well. As much as you hate her, you want to see to what extent she goes in her insensitiveness 😕
And totally agree with the selfishness part. Afzal is selfish in love so you can forgive him even though he puts his family through so much, not to forget how he almost used Yasmeen. You aso forgive him because you see him going through so much heartache 😭 But Farah becomes difficult to forgive because she is driven by sheer selfishness. She thinks of no one but herself 😕
