Maya manages to escape from Rashid’s house and I am sure there were many people who were expecting her to take the first bus back home or at least call her father or Zarmina but guess what she did not do any of that but decided to go to Zeb’s house instead! I think we all have a fair idea where the story will go from here. Maya will learn her lesson the hard way before she finally decides to go back to her house. Although, Zeb tells Maya about the illegal means she uses to earn money but Maya still trusts her and the fact that Maya has known her only for two weeks does not help. When Maya found out about Rashid she was hoping and praying that her father or Zarmina will find her but now that she is out she has once again decided she does not want to go back home….it seems like Maya is on some crazy adventure.
The police arrested Rashid but he is quite confident that he will not be under arrest for a very long time. I have to say that some of the dialogues were very confusing. The police officer has no clue that Rashid is related to Shahzib in any way but when Attiya calls on Rashid’s phone, the policeman does not even question her as to how she is related to Rashid or where she got the number from. Secondly, the conversation that Shahzib had with Zarmina and Faiser left me clueless, it was as if he felt guilty about getting Rashid arrested and said “itni maar khane ke baad tu koi bhi begunah apne jurma ka iqrar kur leta hai…..mei tu bus yehi chat hun ke meri beti mil jaye aur kisi begunah ko saza bhi na miley…asal baat tu Allah hi janta hai”. Rashid may or may not be linked with Maya’s disappearance but Shahzib knows that he was involved in all the other crimes, so why is he feeling for him?
On one hand Maya insists that she cannot lie but on the other she just lies to Zeb’s khala that she has no relatives. It is always a treat to watch Shamim Hilali on-screen and she was absolutely brilliant today too. I am definitely looking forward to seeing more of her. The next episode promises even more drama!
