Hurmat’s (Dananeer Mobeen) brave decision to stand up to her father’s (Akram-Ali Tahir) strict control has set the internet ablaze. Viewers remain split over middle about her choices. Some deeply feel for her pain and understand her quest for freedom; however, many are confused by how quickly her feelings toward Tabish shifted from warmth to coldness. However, Tabish’s (Shahveer Jafry) own actions become the reason behind her suddenly pulling away. Even during a time of tragedy, right after her uncle passed away, Tabish could only focus on himself. Instead of comforting her, he complained about the missing engagement ring. His pride held priority over her grief.
While her harsh reaction to Tabish might seem sudden, for Hurmat, it reflected her childhood and her view on marriage. Growing up in a house run by a controlling father, she knows exactly how it locks one up. It does not always begin with loud anger but with small demands, jealousy, and ownership of a relationship. Shadowed by her background, Hurmat can spot these subtle signs of control from a mile away. She is terrified of repeating history and becoming another Nafeesa (Uzma Hassan), her mother. All her life, Hurmat watched her mother give up her happiness, her voice, and her freedom to keep the peace. That woman’s life became empty and sad because she quietly accepted her husband’s total control. Seeing her mother’s spirit get crushed showed Hurmat the real cost of staying with a controlling man.
Hurmat refuses to become another victim who suffers in silence, and she does not want her life ruined the way her mother’s was. Her sudden distance from Tabish is not a sudden falling out of love but her way of protecting herself. She realizes that if she ignores the warning signs now, she might end up trapped in the exact same life her mother lived, and she is not willing to make that compromise.
Netizens have grown fond of Hurmat’s stand for herself and laud how she does not want to be another version of her mother. Taking to X, a user posted:
i luv Hurmat, because she doesn’t want to become a copy of her mother, instead, she seeks to change what she can, even if the change is small, and even if her attempts sometimes involve the wrong approach, what matters most is that she never gives up and never stops trying too. https://t.co/9FZEBLmpvW

Ughh im so done with women saying suffering was in their “naseeb” allah ne aisi ki zindagi likhi thi. Nahi.Allah ne aisi nai likhi thi.Allah ne haq diya hai apko to move out of abusive relationships.But women still stay in such relationships and think yehi naseeb tha.😤

Stating how Hurmat’s radars can sense toxicity as she has seen her mother suffer all her life, a netizen posted:
there’s something so realistic about hurmat noticing things in tabish that others overlook. when you’ve witnessed an unhealthy marriage up close, u don’t js think about how someone treats u today. u also think about what life with them might look like years from now.

Pointing out Tabish’s controlling characteristics, one user added:
One more red flag: despite Hurmat saying that she would prefer to get married after completing her degree, Tabish started making excuses. So, Hurmat is not wrong to avoid him
