Victoria transit strike

Will the buses be running tomorrow?

I have work on campus but not sure if i can reach if the bus doesn't run.

There's no way I can walk all the way. I wonder if they'd expect attendance on campus for in-person work regardless of transit?

Lo and behold...

The honeymoon phase is perhaps over with the precap... hahahhah, I knew it! 😂😂😂😂😂

ITV hai toh misunderstandings and one person blaming the other for some godforsaken reason toh hona hi hai. Otherwise the pace at which Mahid was advancing today, Seher would really get pregnant soon, if the misunderstanding didn't happen. 😅 Phir show hi khatam ho jayega 🙅‍♀️😆

But I'll be wise to not focus on the precap, but instead focus on the BEAUTIFUL^infinity episode.

I wonder whether Mahid would've kissed her if not for Sultana coming there?

The way he so consciously pulled her down when she got up and tried shying away 🥵🔥🙈

So do they acknowledge the unsaid elephant in the room between them now???

Are they aware of the physical attraction and sexual tension between them now finally??

Mahid needs to...

Marry Seher asap!!! 🥰❤️ Bass maine keh diya so keh diya 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️

Because the way they're getting increasingly close since meeting each other after 7 years, it's a sure shot way of getting badnaam in their mashra 😒 Now she's also in his room without anyone knowing 😭

People will go after Seher's character, and not just make Biryani. It'll get too hard for her. Mahid mard hai, usko log kuch nahi kahenge, sab aurat ko hi blame karenge 😑

I mean, I'm not a romance police at all, I'm happy when MaHer are happy, and I'd tell them to get a room, go for it!!! 🔥😍😝 But the mashra they're living in will give some choicest names to Seher which is what I don't want to see or hear 😭😭😭 And then that'll push Seher away from Mahid 😢

All hail...

The cute MaHer shipper Maulana Sahab 😂😂😂😂 He's such a MaHer MangniPaglu 🥰

He heard Mahid's kahani about grand Mangni prep taking time yesterday, and that Seher wants shaan-o-shaukat arrangements. And then off he went immediately calling the mashra together to help the very next morning!

He even made sure people gave MaHer kapde lehenga designs, shahi tukda, and even Taj Mahal decorations 😭 Matlab, this man remembered every single thing that Mufti Sahab said and put it to action right away!!

This is the dedication I need 😍 Behtar Maulana Sahab, Behtar 😁

I think he'll order a treadmill next and send it over to Mahid lol, saying that it'll help him fit into Seher's favorite Sherwani sooner 😂🔥

I will riot if Mahid doesn't send the first invitation card for the Mangni to Maulana Sahab 🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️

Appreciation post for Bhavika

She's killing it as Seher 🔥🔥🔥✨️✨️✨️❤️❤️❤️

She's more than 100% Seher now and has won my heart 😍😍😍😍😍😍 In the last few episodes, she's been complementing Parth's Mahid to the T, and embodying Seher so wonderfully. Kudos 👏👏👏

Lack of time hai aajkal, varna I'd write much more in praise of her acting. But posts dedicated to her performance are much needed!!!!

Song suggestions for MaHer

Because I'm wide awake like an owl at this time, let's pool in some song suggestions for MaHer here, shall we?? 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

Just from our discussions today, I have the below in mind:

  1. Aaya tere dar par deewana

  2. Laal Ishq

  3. Qubool from Haq

  4. Dil diyan gallan

  5. Shayad yahi toh pyaar hai

  6. Ye tune kya kiya

  7. Arziyaan

Aur bhi bohot hai deep in my subconscious, toh I'll keep adding to this list as and when I get reminded of more songs 🥰💖

Apne ideas bhi izhaar kijiye, fellow maashrey-waalon 🫂🔥😍

Some things I am happy for

I love that Mahid is the Mufti-e-Sheher now. 🔥😍 And that he has been able to keep Patricidal Phupi under control, or at least prevent her from destroying him totally. It was good to see Haider tell his mother that she hasn't been able to shake Mahid. That's my Man! 🙅‍♀️❤️🥹

Given how traumatized and heartbroken Mahid is after Seher's accusation, and with Seher leaving him presumably forever, I'm so so glad to see that at least he has the Mufti position which rightfully belongs to him.

I was worried that after the leap, Mahid will roam the streets as Devdas and Haider will be Mufti, but that didn't happen thankfully.

Another thing is the light and dark colour combinations that MaHer are wearing. It's like even after 7 years, they've got their weekly outfit chart that they follow, to colour co-ordinate with each other. 🤭

  1. Dark Navy-Light Blue,

  2. Dark Maroon-Baby Pink,

  3. Dark Olive-Light Cream

Mahid in a solid dark colour, and Seher in the lighter shade of the same colour! I love that!!! ❤️🥰

Also, Parth's insta post and his interviews openly acknowledging fans' emotions and asking to keep patience and giving the new chapter a fair chance, was very endearing. Keeping that in mind, let's leave the past, avoid comparisons, and enjoy the angst and beautiful story that's being served now!! 💃✨️💯

Poor Seher

I felt so bad for her, she's literally made up a whole storyline in her head about Mahid aage badh gaye, nikaah karliya unhone, nikaah kiya hai toh baccha bhi lazmi hai, and that he's moved on from her as they've been separated for 7 years 😭😭😂😂😂😂

I bet she's made up images in her head of everything lol. The way she stopped Mahid from saying anything, kuch batane ki zarurat nahi hai, like she didn't want to hear him say he was married again, or that Insha is his wife or something. She couldn't bear to hear him saying anything like that, poor girl 😅

She has even accepted that she is his "pehli begum", and that he has a happy family and kid with another woman who is his "doosri begum" 🥹😭😅

I'm sure she'll dance in joy when she gets to know the truth, but tabtak thoda sa tadpo koi naa, mujhe maza aarha hai Seher ka yearning and longing avatar dekh kar 😈😈😈

Also, she easily jumps into declarations and conclusions like he's not loyal to her or loves her enough, Nazima as his bachpan ka pyaar, him having a kid, what not. 😅😅 When in reality he's genuinely faithful to her.

Mahid is actually the kind of man who'll always be faithful to his wife. He's quite old school and traditional in things related to emotions and relationships, "marriage is for keeps" kinda man. It's not possible to imagine him even thinking of someone else other than who he married.

I can understand why Seher feels this way as he always put a distance between them previously, plus the talaqs, but let's see how they develop the MaHer relationship now. There's lots of character development that both of them will go through 🔥🥹💯

Are departments and faculties thinking about education for students in the age of AI?

It's all very well to institute measures to prevent or punish plagiarism in the age of AI. That's all great. Those measures can and will be implemented.

But do departments, faculties and the university as a whole think about how they can continue to keep education in their specific subjects relevant in the age of AI?

Are they thinking of measures to help students keep up with the transformation that's going on?

To help students adapt and upskill/reskill? Enabling students to build resilience to being made obsolete? How can students deal with the job market impacts of AI that we're seeing?

I think academia and academic policy makers and administrators, with all their collective expertise, knowledge, and abilities, should come together to rethink education, so that it serves students in this age of AI. Can there be initiatives by the University that bring together academia and industry, so that students are well-prepared for surviving in this job market?

This should be a community-wide, collective conversation and effort. I wonder whether there's anything to this effect happening anywhere?

Shoot in Kashmir

MODS: Please let me know if it's okay to discuss this, otherwise I'll delete or make necessary changes. Thank you!

---

Chalo mai aa hi gayi besharmon ki tarah muh utha ke 😭🙈 My self-imposed exile didn't last a day lol. 😅

But OMG, they've actually gone to Pahalgam/Baisaran to shoot!!! I just saw Sanju's insta story!

It's quite close to Srinagar, and has one of the most beautiful scenery 😍😍

It's difficult shooting in that area too. Now I'm excited to see what they have in store for the post leap initial sequences.

As an aside, Pahalgam also had the attack last year, so security and logistics wise, things should be handled even more carefully. Kudos to all the efforts taken by the whole team!! 👏👍🔥 May they get all the success for their hard work 💯🤞✨️

Seher and Amaal

Question for MODS because I couldn't send a ModMail despite trying to:

I understand that my post below was removed. But I'd like to know what exactly was the spoiler here?? When I asked this many times, there was no answer from the Mod as to what exactly the spoiler was. The girls going to Malihabad to find Kausar was already spelt out clearly and openly by Seher in Monday's episode, and was also pointed out by Mahid by the end of Monday's episode, which has already aired on TV.

I don't think there's anything in my post below (made on Tuesday) that's a spoiler. Everything was already out in Monday's episode, that had already aired on TV. Decisions are imposed and posts are removed, despite no rule being broken. All because one of the MODS wants to be high handed, impose things, and silence some people specifically, when the sub doesn’t have much engagement in the first place anyway.

Questions on ModMail are also not answered. It's as if there's no recourse and no place to get things clarified if one of the Mods does something that's arbitrary.

---

Seher and Amaal are completely stupid. Sorry for the language, but with the situation they are currently in, they should be grateful for having Fareed and Mahid with them, and should close their eyes and take their help.

Even if she manages to find the truth in Malihabad, does Seher really think she'll be able to find her Ammi all by herself, dealing with a gunda and the whole mad mashra?

Okay her Ammi is missing, but a person's character shines only during the toughest challenges in life. When it's time to really display strength of character now, Seher is unfortunately on a path of self-sabotage. Saath hi apne aas paas ke sab ko duba lejayegi, including Amaal and Mahid.

Hugely disappointed in Seher. Even more disappointed that she hasn't yet said one single word of condolence on the death of Mahid's Dada Huzoor.

Can't the writers think of anything else other than Mahid unboxing Seher, and Mahid picking stuff out of her hair or face?

Okay MaHer is what viewers are here for, but it's a little lazy on the part of the writing team to have the same kind of scenes again and again. Isse acha they could've had Seher ask Mahid one word about Dada Huzoor to give her condolence on his death.

Also, why can't they bring the damn leap on and then show romance as much as they want??? At this point, they're just rage baiting the viewers.

I love the Mufti politics and the fact that Mahid is caught between taking up his responsibilities towards the community as Mufti and continuing the legacy of his Dada Huzoor versus supporting Seher and being there for her.

These two things have become conflicting priorities for him. He's also now realizing that people are back stabbing him and that his life and career are all on doldrums. Upar se ye paison ko paani ki tarah bahaa rha hai aajkal... ki kahi kangaal naa hojaye if/when Patricidal Phupi takes over Niyazi Manzil and beghar-fies Mahid 😱

But the Mufti politics and power play is what I always wanted to see. That's cool!

I hope they don't cancel the ulema/religious priest folks coming in and the fateha padhne wale scenes tomorrow. The deliberation on who will be Mufti is much-awaited, though it's a shame that Mahid, who was the uncrowned prince and well-respected successor of Mufti Usman Niyazi, is now being sidelined because of his support for women's education and freedom. That conflict makes for a worthwhile watch!

But still these episodes seem like fillers... they need to speed up! It's obvious that they've extended the pre-leap track for whatever reason but they need to go ahead now. 🙅‍♀️😄

How much money does Mahid have? 😂

Matlab... the way he's throwing cash around like Kuber the God of Wealth himself 😂😂😂

Let's list all the instances where he's done Paison ka Baarish:

  1. Two times Meher of 21 lakhs each, so a total of 42 lakhs 💰

  2. Dent on the Thar that is being repaired

  3. New Fortuner

  4. 25,000 lump sum cash to the auto wala for work that was only for 1,500 (as described by the auto wala himself)

  5. Money flowing out of his coat pocket for the ribbon person this week 💸

  6. Daily eating Sheermal Nihari in Seher ki gali, doing Majnu duties

  7. Off the bat buying all the houses in that Jankipuram mohalla outright 😭🔥😱

(Mahid, can I get one of those houses please? Aapki badi meher baani hogi agar aap kripa karein toh, and I promise I'll help Seher)

  1. New phone the moment his old phone got broken

  2. His Hublot watch 🤑

  3. Pearl necklace with that huge emerald during the ice room episodes

  4. Stacks of notes while giving Seher money to buy books in Adamganj 💵

  5. New phone for Seher that he gave her in Adamganj to replace her first phone, which he'd just bought 2 days ago

  6. Him ready to do cash ki varsha on the goon who came to meet Patricidal Phupi, saying "aapko paise chahiye naa, hum dete hain, humare saath aayiye" 😱😅

Anything else I'm forgetting? I'm sure I'm missing something here.

Kya side business chala rha hai bhai Mahid?

Niyazis are khaandani raees, okay, but where exactly is all this endless cash flow coming from? 🔥💀🙈😂

Seher is 18 actually

Since they keep skipping class 11 and class 12 (this has happened several times now, where they keep showing Seher filling out college forms, giving college interviews, etc.), I take it that she's finished class 12 now actually.

And she is now starting college. This makes her 18.

Bass saara confusion, dilemma and dharam sankat khatam. 🙅‍♀️🔥👏😊

Pehle hi clearly bol dete makers, toh itni khari khoti nahi sunna padta show ko aur sab ko. Bass sab log sunlo abb, Seher is 18 and she's going to join college now.

Make way for the OG OTP - Adnaan-Ghazala: AdHaz

Sorry for the bad couple name of our very own Adnaan abbajaan and Ghazala ammijaan. I can't think straight now from laughing so much 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Can someone make a good couple name for this OG OTP??

By the way, Adnaan and Ghazala bonded over books, as stated by Ghazala. They must've had a beautiful relationship. Ahh, what all has poor Mahid missed out on. 😭😭😭

​

Here they're on Twitter, having a conversation 😂😂😂😂😂

​

I went to Twitter after so many days today and I see such hilarious conversations between people cosplaying as characters from the show. Especially Adnaan and Ghazala 😆😆😆😆😆

​

There's Osman Niyazi Dada Huzoor (the OG MaHer shipper), Haider, Insha, and of course Mahid and Seher. Some of the conversations between the characters are so funny there on Twitter 😂😂😂😂

​

Tahir and Hayee Gazab patricide phupi Husna abhi tak nahi dikhe 😂😂😂😂😂😂

u/EconGrad2020 — 2 months ago

Is Rishita actually leaving? Or was all that a PR exercise too? 😂

And is the leap even happening??? 😂😂😂

Is it confirmed that Bhavika will be the grown-up Seher?

And is Seher going to blame Mahid for a circumstantial thing, where he actually did the very best he could under those circumstances? Her logic for considering Mahid to be the reason behind her Ammi going missing will be so stupid.

Kuch bhi for creating a separation and misunderstanding/blaming time between the leads.

Is Rishita actually leaving, or was it all another paid PR stunt as usual?

Haaye Gazab 👿🙅‍♀️🔥🐍😰🙏

Kanika's expressions yesterday when killing her Abba huzoor were something else.

​

God, she was equal parts scary, dangerous, menacing, creepy, disgusting, vile, and saakshat evil personified 😭🙏🔥🙅‍♀️👿🐍

​

It was hard for me to watch her do the whole act of patricide - right from the way she was sitting on the bed and narrating what was on her mind, to how she suffocated her father to death - those eyes, that face and that look, damn. It was really hard to watch.

​

She acted so well. Kudos. 👏👏👏Husna seemed completely neurotic and psychopathic. I feel pukeworthy disgust thinking of Husna, but I'm overawed and blown away by Kanika. 😢😳🥹

​

Not adding the Spoiler tag, because this was from yesterday's episode that has already aired.

Haaye Gazaab!!

Ye toh mujhe pata hi nahi tha. Look at what YouTube recommended today!

Parth and Niyati look so good together 😍😍😍

What if Dada huzoor exiles Mahid??

Just a random thought...

What if Dada Huzoor decides that he'll banish Mahid from Niyazi Manzil for his progressive thoughts and his support for women?

So assume Mahid gets exiled...

Then bechara kaise roti paani afford karega?? Paise honge uske paas jo madrasa work yaa religious work se related naa ho?

Then will he have to rely on Seher's education and her street smartness that helps him also make a living in the world?

After the leap, it'll be great to see a track like this where Mahid tries to make a living as a modern person, coming out of his deen ki duniya.
