As Zeba (Sanam Saeed) and Jamshed, also known as Jami (Emmad Irfani), head to Murree on their honeymoon, more aspects of his problematic personality are revealed. His greediness becomes the core of the latest episode, as he refuses to pay for any expenses.
While he can be seen paying a heavy price for calling his family back home, he refuses to let Zeba call back home and let her family know that she is safe. On the other hand, he expects Zeba to pay for all the gifts they are getting for the family back home, on both their sides. Zeba is unable to pay the bill and drops the idea of shopping, as she is required to pay with the money she received as a wedding gift.
He then blackmails her into asking her father for help by lying to him that Jami lost his wallet and was caught up in trouble. He promises to return the money as soon as they are back in Karachi, and Zeba complies, embarrassingly. They do end up buying for both families, yet Jami’s gestures leave Zeba wondering if this is what marriage looks like.
Zeba’s silent suffering resonates with the audience, who find Jami’s character too common to ignore. With many finding their lives entangled with men like Jami, the character aptly mirrors how society breeds such men. Stating that Jami’s character is an archetype and uncomfortably familiar, a user posted to X:
Emad Irfani’s character Jami in this new drama #Kafeel isn’t one man… he’s an archetype..
Thinks he’s too handsome & special with Kala Chashma and lambay baal
Avoids work as “below his level,”
Lives off others’ money,
Is always right,
Wears fake charm in public,
A narcissist…— Sheherbano zamani (@Sheherzamani) December 30, 2025
