Introduction

Tere Bin is a new drama on HAR PAL GEO (Well, it’s not that new). Here’s a snippet from Geo’s official YouTube channel.

Meerab is an ambitious and beautiful young girl who wants to pursue higher studies. Her entire world revolves around her parents and she believes in them the most. Her strong and confident personality makes her stand against social injustices around her.

On the contrary, Murtasim hails from a powerful and influential family. He respects and values the morals and traditions of his family and refuses to let the family down.

Meerab’s life takes an unexpected turn when she finds out about her family’s decision regarding her and Murtasim’s life. Meerab’s hatred towards Murtasim continues to grow as a family secret from the past resurfaces. Coming from different backgrounds and mindsets, Murtasim begins to realize Meerab’s arrogant behaviour towards him and begins to consider her a challenge for himself. On the other hand, Meerab who is used to living her life on her own terms refuses to accept Murtasim’s family traditions and unnecessary social barriers.

Soon their lives go through a series of emotional sufferings and misunderstandings where it becomes difficult for them to coexist. Despite their hatred towards each other, will Meerab and Murtasim accept their true feelings or will the dynamics of ego and self-respect force them to stay apart?

Tere Bin Episode 53 Written Update and Review

Assalam Alaikum dear readers,

Shabana Mukhtar here, to recap and review  the 53rd episode of this never-ending drama. Buckle up, because we’re in for a bumpy ride.

~

Let’s start with the usual suspect: flashbacks. Oh boy, this episode was no exception. It was like a never-ending loop of the same flashback. As with the past few episodes, this episode was also flled with countless flashbacks that made most of watch time. I mean, come on, how many times do we need to see the same thing. The only difference was, that this time it was the same flashback that repeated 5 times – the one where Farrukh told about Murtasim and how relentlessly he is pursuing Meerub. I think the makers had material worth 50 episodes, and now they want to turn it into 100 episodes with inclusion of flashbacks. They had a handful of content and decided to stretch it into eternity with the help of these mind-numbing flashbacks. Seriously, we’re tired of it.

~

Moving on to my second complaint – the snail’s pace of this episode. I’ve seen turtles move faster than the plot progression here. I even tried watching it at 2.5X speed, but it was still painfully slow. So, I ended up skipping through many sequences just to maintain my sanity. And let me tell you, it wasn’t easy.

~

Murtasim: Stay away from my room, or I will remove you from haveli.

And boy, was it satisfying. He straight-up told her to stay away from his room or face the consequences of eviction from the haveli.

Bravo, Murtasim!

It’s about time someone put her in her place. Although, I must add, it’s a bit too late for that. The damage has already been done, my friend.

The drama takes the most clichéd turn in the drama handbook. Guess what?

Hold on to your seats, folks, because Meerub is expecting! Yes, you heard that right. Our dear protagonist is preggo. Cue the dramatic music and shocked faces from Farrukh, Ruqaiya, and Khalid. Oh, the fervor!

But don’t worry, folks, because the drama lords have decided to sort things out pretty quickly. I mean, who needs a long, drawn-out storyline, right? So, Meerub, being the silly, arrogant, and stubborn woman she is, still refuses to talk about her husband. Seriously, Meerub, it’s been over fifty episodes. Can’t you just spill the beans already?

And let’s not forget that Meerub loves to play the victim card. She comes across as this poor soul, a victim of marital abuse. But in reality, well, it’s a whole different story. I won’t rub it in your face. You guys know it already–let’s just say Meerub isn’t as innocent as she pretends to be. But hey, who doesn’t love a good old-fashioned victim act?

~

Now, brace yourselves for the magical appearance of Murtasim. Somehow, he manages to find Farrukh’s place and decides to raid it with the police. I mean, does this guy have some sort of GPS tracking device installed in him or what? It’s like he’s always in the right place at the right time. Talk about luck!

During the raid, Murtasim stumbles upon a prescription. And guess what? He still doesn’t have a clue that it might be Meerub’s. I mean, come on, Murtasim, connect the dots already! How many more hints do you need? It’s right there in front of you. But hey, I guess we need to keep the suspense going for a little while longer.

Review

This episode was a cocktail of never-ending flashbacks, snail-paced drama, and one moment of satisfaction. But hey, at least we have each other to laugh and rant with, right?

So, buckle up and get ready for the next episode of Tere Bin, where we’ll surely have more twists, turns, and mind-boggling moments. Stay tuned!

Until next time, let’s hope for a better and faster-paced episode of Tere Bin – but let’s not hold our breath.

Also, both dudes wearing identical salwar kameez was fun to watch.

Need I say more? Drama khincha chala ja raha hai…

So, that’s the commentary on the latest episode of “Tere Bin”. How did others find it?
