Aakhir Kab Tab Episode 28 Written Update and Review
Yeah, Noor tells Nasir about Fajar. She also informs him about Zafar and that Zafar is living in the same house.
And…
Wait for it…
“Fajar hasn’t told Saim yet, and she needs two more days. so, we can’t do anything until she talks to Saim,” Noor says.
Say what now?
Being a viewer, I’m pissed. I can only imagine how frustrated Nasir must be. He does put a few men to watch Saim’s house, though.
Our dear Noor also tells Safiya everything about Zafar – Zafar is back, he’s staying at Saim’s, he is harassing Fajar… We see Noor’s old self who blames things on Safiya. I feel for Safiya, but she is responsible for what happened to Fajar, right? Ehtesham and Dado also overhear the conversation. While Ehtesham breaks down and mourns Fajar’s plight, Dado does what she does best – she laments. It was good to see that Ehtesham did not blame anything on anyone, but I had expected him to take a stand; like go to the police or something. Uska toh damaad hi police hai. What do you think of Ehtesham’s reaction to the news?
Zafar continues to harass Fajar, Fajar can’t take the stress any more and she tries to commit suicide. That came as a shock, so I had to go back and rewatch the scene, twice. What exactly did Zafar ask of Fajar?
What’s with that background music? That scene has so much background music that I can’t hear the dialogues properly. Please dear editors, music pe hath haula rakhiye. As if Tere Tere bin on HKKST isn’t enough, this drama also has dramatic music all the time. Now I know why I couldn’t catch their conversation in the first go. I must have skipped the scene the first time.
“I would have never done anything to you if I had known that Saim would marry you. I did you a favour by not telling Saim until now. You should return the favour and let things continue the way they are. I’ll be waiting for you,” he says.
That pushed Fajar to the limit. She performs salat, prays and seeks forgivesness, and then…
So, yeah… She has poisoned herself. Zaher aaya kahan se?
Bas phir, everybody is at the hospital. Oh, ans Fajar has left a suicide-very proper that way. Nilofer sees the note and asks the house help to throw it away. I don’t understand this woman. Her own daughter Nimra is telling her about Zafar’s character, and yet she trusts Zafar over Nimra. I mean… I know some mothers give more preference to others, but not in matters like this, right?
Thankfully, Nimra also sees the note. Before she could react, Nasir is in with his boys to catch Zafar. And that’s where the episode ends.
Zafar has left already, though. Big whoop!
Performances
Let’s talk about performances for a bit. I had last seen Azfar in Atish (and miss Veet before that), and now this… I need time to see him as anyone else except Zafar. Kudos to him. Shahood Alvi is fabulous as usual in his portrayal of a paralyzed man. My heart goes out for Fajar, and Srha deserves all the praises for her acting. But… Can I just say that as the drama is dragging, her acting feels repetitive and a bit annoying? I mean… I still feel sorry for Fajar, and I want her to live a life free of any apprehensions, any fears. But we have seen it for 28 episodes now. It doesn’t lessen the impact, but at the back of my mind I know that this could have been finished 3-4 episodes earliar than planned. But hey, what do I know about drama making?
What does the future hold?
In my review of 26th episode of AKT, I had said that it will take four more episodes. We have seen two more, and the next one isn’t the last episode, either. So, we have at least two more episodes now. Kitna lagayenge bhai?
Speaking of promo, we see Noor and Safiya breaking down, and Nimra also staggers and rests against the wall. There is some terrible news. Has Fajar lost the battle against life? If that’s the case, it would be a sad and disappointing end. A girl is abused, and she dies-this is what happens in real life. I hope this drama shows a survivor and not a victim like real-life. The other possibility is, and I might be way out on a limb here, that the poisoning somehow made her infertile. You know the cliched line:
“Aap kabhi maan nahin ban saktin.”
I say that, because that is a very painful thing to hear, and that explains the title track – Adhuri Hoon Main. I admit, that’s a far-fetched thought. I even googled if poisoning can make a woman infertile. Apparently, it can.
Anywho! We will know in next Monday’s episode. If my prediction is right, I will buy myself a large bar of chocolate. Or should I do that right away? Do I really need an excuse to eat chocolate?
I will be back with Parizaad’s review tomorrow. Until we meet again, check out my stories.
