Ishal has left Araiz’s house and now both are at loggerheads. No one wants to take stock of the situation and talk it out. And then you have people like Irfan (Ishal’s father), Soni who will further worsen the situation. I understand both are hurt and cannot see the truth or at least Araiz can but he is not able to make Ishal understand which is frustrating him plus being jobless adds to his woes. On the other hand, Ishal’s father is trying his best to turn his daughter against her husband and in-laws for obvious reasons. How low can someone stoop I wonder? He humiliates his daughter’s in-laws and lies about it to his daughter when she asks him, I thought he would accept and instead tell that they deserved this kind of treatment and blah blah.
It’s interesting to see Rehbar trying to knock sense into Araiz’s head who is adamant on not reconciling with his wife and letting his father-in-law take advantage of the situation. Please my dear Araiz use your brains!! Stop doubting your wife, you know she’s always been loyal towards you, it’s just her evil father who is influencing her. About time Araiz needs to take a deep breath, sit alone and mull over the situation and take the right steps. The first right step would be talking it out with Ishal and bringing her back to his house. Better late than never I liked how Araiz FINALLY realised that how useless and selfish his siblings are. Loved how he finally spoke up against Soni’s immature behaviour. Ishal on the other hand ALSO needs to use her brains and find out the truth because she is aware of the fact that her father has never approved of Araiz as her husband and if Araiz is accusing his father-in-law of something then there must be some truth to it. Agreed his way was not correct but she really needs to stop being so influenced by her father and also heed to Rehbar’s advice. I particularly did not like how the news of her pregnancy was broken and also in episode 14 Araiz declared very confidently to his mother that Ishal’s expecting whereas in episode 15 she was seen ringing the hospital to confirm the pregnancy where she was being treated for burns, I am wondering if it’s a blooper or some scene was edited out? Poor editing nonetheless!
Episode 15 also saw the re-entry of Shahbir which will bring an exciting twist in the story, though I have a feeling he may play an important role in reuniting Araiz and Ishal. The parallel track going on between Sunny and Soni is getting boring, except the part where we see Soni uttering filmy dialogues in a bid to confess her liking for Sunny in a not to subtle manner. I hope things get spiced up between the two hehe. ;-)
Overall both the episodes were good but the story needs to pick up pace and not be dragged like it’s kind of being right now. The only complaint that I have is the unintentional pregnancy blooper. The acting was good but I must say Aly Khan has very impressive so far. I liked the scene where Ishal and Araiz meet in a park and the conversation ends in an argument and both visibly regretting later after saying hurtful things to each other yet not accepting it fully. The dialogues were good but the direction could have been tad bit better.
