Ye meri last explanation rahegi and then I'm not obliged to explain things to anyone.
I’d love to make her independent, lekin mere preference mein wo dynamic tab hi achha lagta hai jab male lead insecure hota hai. Tab kalesh bhi achha lagta hai. But Sahel isn't an insecure ml and he, himself wants to make Hafsa strong, not just for her growth but for her safety too, so that has to be kept in mind.
He is a full-fledged provider, and Hafsa has the luxury to be dependent on him because of his masculinity. The toxicity in their dynamic comes from a place of protectiveness and not from malice.
Hafsa is also young and inexperienced, so it would be unfair to push her to mature before her time. It would only make her story feel sad instead of natural.
Aap log jo bhi ho, jinhe dependent female leads achhi nahi lagti, mujhe samjhao ki kaise natural lagta hai aapko ek aisi ladki ko completely independent dikhana, jo abhi barely adulthood mein aayi ho.
Main khud 19 ki hoon aur abhi bhi apne brother aur mother par depend karti hoon bohot si cheezon ke liye. Agar kuch cheez unreal lagti hai, toh main apni story mein kyun daalun bhala.
Kuch log bol rahe hain ki Hafsa se bechari wali feeling aa rahi hai. Arey, maine usse abused ya mistreated female lead ki tarah likha hi nahi hai.
Woh us hadd tak victimized nahi hai jaisa dark romcom mein hota rehta hai. Sensitivity chahiye, haan, lekin itni bhi nahi ki mujhe hi bataya jaaye ki main apne kaam ke saath kya karun. Maine story start ki hai, main hi khatam karungi.
