Pyari Mona Episode 3  Written Update and Review 

This episode focuses more on Samia’s health. She stays up all night, she looks pale and she might be depressed. Despite repeated suggestions from Khalid and Mona, Samia refuses to see a doctor. Babar and Shaista, on the other hand, keep asserting that Samia is just fine.

She is not, obviously!

Babar isn’t the one to admit defeat, so he sets up a dinner for Yawar. Mona doesn’t know about the setup until she arrives in the living room, all dressed up. She doesn’t like that she is tricked into meeting Yawar. To make things worse, Babar and Shaista lie to Yawar…

“Mona was impressed by you, but she was tired and we had not told her about you, so…”

Mona isn’t going to take it, is she? While Samia, Babar and Shaista leave Mona and Yawar alone on the pretext of checking dinner preps, Mona tells Yawar that she is in love… with another guy. Yawar understands and leaves.

Now, the torturing duo of Babar and Shaista nag Mona for her behaviour. In an impulsive moment, Mona tells them that she likes her friend Irfan.

Now, that’s something new.

“He is a good for nothing guy. I will not accept him,” Shaista says.

On the other hand, Irfan took Hira out for dinner, thanks to the pressure from his mother. Irfan and Mona have been a regular at the restaurant, and the waiter asks Irfan about Mona. Hira flips out and leaves immediately. Later, Irfan tells his mother.

“You should stop spending time with Mona. She is turning you against me,” Irfan’s mother says.

Mona calls Irfan and tells him the plan–just pretend to like me and bring your proposal. Irfan isn’t too thrilled about this, but he agrees nonetheless.

“The Mona I know never lies,” Irfan says.

Mona prays to Allah and seeks forgiveness for her lies.

Upset by the proposal thingy, Yawar takes one project off Babar’s hands. Babar hates to lose the opportunity. Now, he is arranging things for Irfan, which is not his nature. I think he is planning something fishy.

And we wait to see what happens next.
