PLOT SUMMARY & COMMENTARY
Sajal Ali gives yet another emptional performance as Noor-ul-Ain begs Amaan to take her back.
A Glimpse From Amaan’s Past
The scene then switches to his childhood as his parents are getting ready for a picnic. Abdul Rahman, their servant, has helped to cook a lot of food for them. He also asks them to be back early, lest they get stuck in rains. Little does he know that they aren’t coming back, ever.
The road is blocked and Adeel gets down to see what’s the matter. At the same time, Amaa’s ball also gets out so he jumps out to fetch it. Two things happen in parallel. Someone shoots Adeel twice and Amaan gets behind a tree. Yep, that’s Farooq and Ali Bakhsh is with him. Together, they kill Amaan’s family in front of his eyes and push their car off the road.
Why? We don’t know that yet.
Farhana Scratches the Old Wounds, Old Memories of Past
Back to present, Amaan’s heart melts to see Aina still waiting outside. He promises to never leave Aina. After that, we see a nice light-hearted scene (for a change) where Amaan meets Farhana.
How does Amaan know Nargis Bua? We don’t know that yet.
Amaan asks Aina and Farhana about Nilofer’s death. Later, Farhana asks him about the details of the car accident that supposedly killed Nilofer.
The questions are so detailed and minute as if some police officer is investigating a murder. That’s how everybody should question when something mysterious. It reminds me of how Maheen questioned Nazneen’s sudden death and funeral, from Dil Diya Dehleez. I don’t want to go in the details, because I do intend to review it, soon. I have planned that for past 2 years. Let it suffice to say that this scene seems a replica. No offence.
Farooq makes up one lie after the other, and I am pretty sure his lies will be caught soon. Too soon, she asks the same questions to Nargis Bua. Farooq’s lies are almost caught but in walks Farooq. The best defence is to attack, so he gets all aggressive. So, Farhana backs down and Farooq completes the act by crying and getting all emotional.
Meet the Accomplice – Sahira and Amaan
Sahira meets Amaan, with a photo. Again, what’s with the angle? Is someone spying on Amaan? When she gets home, Farooq is waiting for her. She thinks that she has dodged his questions but he snoops in her purse and finds a restaurant bill. Oh, shukk, what the! But, why would Amaan let her pay? He seems like a chivalrous man. Coffee toh pila hi sakta hai, to a woman who’s helping him trap Farooq. Whatev!
That is my commentary on 11th episode of Yeh Dil Mera. What did you feel about this episode?
