As Zanjeerain progresses, life has taken a turn for all, especially Sarbuland (Danyal Zafar) and Rabbiya (Sajal Aly), whose fate is set to take them on a different journey. Sarbuland, who runs away from being the chief of the tribe, has been brought to sit in his brother, Sherdil’s (Ahsan Khan) seat after his murder. Rabbiya (Sajal Aly), locked into a marriage with hope to leave her past behind, is set to enter a life she never imagined. A world filled with love, happiness, and hope.
A man who saw his future in Berkeley, away from the feudal life, building a life of his own, is now set to avenge his brother’s death against his stepbrother. Sorrow and grief have taken over his chirpy laughter, and he is moved by revenge.
On the other side, Rabbiya, a woman who has never pictured herself outside her village, has stepped into a life that welcomes her wholeheartedly. Mudassir (Ameer Gillani) and his family welcome the new bride, hoping she will bring happiness to their lives. A woman who is not seen smiling or conversing beyond need has found her safe space with her new husband, surrounded by love.
The contrast of love and revenge, happiness and sorrow, hope and hopelessness, all put together in one episode, leaves Zanjeerain viewers in awe. The parallel sequences of Sarbuland and Rabbiya draw the audience an inch closer to the well-weaved plot. They can look forward to the fate that would bring the two together. Sarbuland, the new chief, and Rabbiya, a new wife, will ultimately share the screen, along with the circumstances that will follow. The viewers laud how the sequences are divided between Sarbuland and Rabbiya as their lives are changed by fate, calling it a tale of duality. An X user posted:
The poetic duality of fate for Buland and Biya both of whom paralelly stepped into the new chapter of their respective lives, not knowing what the future holds for them.#Zanjeerain pic.twitter.com/rVg2Oc5dci

One admired how, on the one hand, new relationships are being built; on the other, relationships are being lost. They posted on X and said:

#Zanjeerain will get really interesting now. There is a common enemy & a multitude of connected people.
Slowly becoming one of my favourite watches of the week.
