Good to hear from you Sush
I'm pleasantly surprised they went with the original plot. Really appreciate that.
I can't help but feel pity for Zeenat. We can't choose our mothers, but a child has full rights to accept or not accept a step mother, it's every child's right !
Yes Zeenat isn't a saint, she hurt Sahir. But was she wrong in keeping a distance from her step mother ? The word " step mother " is associated negatively in people's mind. I empathize with Zeenat ! She loses her mother in a tender age, father brings another woman in her mothers place, then comes two half-siblings, her stepmothers isn't mother india like they show in desi shows, here it's a selfish one or one with a motive to get fortune, which child wouldn't get insecure ?
Then another question I've, of Sahir is forgiven for all the crimes he did just because of his " bad marriage ", Zeenat with painful childhood, then a stepmother who planned her accident , 7 years of coma, doesn't she deserve a second chance ? ( yes aware she is no saint ) Who has gone thorough worst situations in life Sahir or Zeenat ? In Mrs sac no2's words, whose "dard " is more atrocious ?
In my opinion Sahir's "dard " was his "choice " while Zeenat's was " situation " . We have full control over our choices, not over situation !
I'm kind of sensitive to such issues where a step-mother/father and a step-child is involved, specially of there is a girl child involved.
