I was awaiting this episode all day, wearing my shades with hearts and stars all over my eyes! Wasn’t sure I’d be able to grasp anything. You’ve hit bullseye with you review, Fatima! An outstanding episode, and your review matched that perfectly, and both have left me fumbling for words! I would be looking forward to that particular conversation for sure! The way Kashaf explained to Zaroon what she expected from a marriage and the manner in which Zaroon told her that he didn’t want to take a backseat in any way, made for a very interesting conversation and what was more interesting was that Kashaf ended it by saying “ is topic ke bare mein hum dubara baat kare gay”. The most interesting conversation had to be about Zaroon being a chauvinist and the reason why the engagement with Asmara ended. In the last episode Zaroon was complaining that they don’t talk enough but today we saw Kashaf and Zaroon talking about everything, from their past to present and even Asmara. The rose that Zaroon gives Kashaf reminds her of all the flowers he must have given the girls in the past, so Kashaf is still far from forgetting the past but despite of it all Zaroon has managed to make a very special place in her heart. Will this attitude/thinking of Kashaf create problems between the two in the future? I could not help but wonder.

What Kashaf said to her mother about her being a working woman and how she will not be able to look after or care for Zaroon the way a housewife can was very alarming indeed. Kashaf has gone from being “churail Murtaza” in Zaroon’s life to his “wife” and Zaroon has gone from being “leechar” to Kashaf’s “husband” and what a beautiful journey it has been!! Zaroon, like a man madly in love waits for Kashaf to say those three words to him. Zaroon Junaid is not afraid of telling Kashaf over and over again that he loves her and I am waiting for the time when Kashaf will finally learn to trust him because according to Kashaf “Shohar bun ker murd ziada naqabal-e-itebaar hote hei”…one can’t blame her for thinking this way given her circumstances. Zaroon rightly thought that no one had been waiting for him “Mujhe koi asaar nazar nahi aa rahe” but he did not hold his feelings back and messaged Kashaf right away and both of them had the sweetest conversation. He wanted her to call him when he was on his way home to ask if he was okay and told her just that later on when they talked but Kashaf was still apprehensive when she went to open the door for him later and finally decided not to do it. There were several times in today’s episode when Zaroon told Kashaf what he expected from her. There is absolutely no denying the fact that Zaroon Junaid will do everything in his power to change Kashaf from the unromantic person she is at least on the surface to someone who shows her feelings more openly. Today’s episode had a lot of aww-going moments and some scenes really made me wonder what was in store for Zaroon and Kashaf next. Kashaf’s insecurities and fears do not allow her to admit freely even to herself that she is in love with the man she despised once. Love is in the air and whether Kashaf says it out loud or not the fact is that she is indeed head over heels in love with Zaroon.
