Meri Zindagi Hai Tu is a drama that is gaining a high number of views on YouTube and a big number on TRP charts. Bilal Abbas Khan and Hania Aamir have come together as the leading stars and it is written by Radain Shah and directed by Mussadiq Malek. The show was highly-anticipated and therefore the viewership is massive. It is once again a “love-story” but this is a new generation of viewers and they are finally questioning how a problematic storyline is being normalized.
Bilal Abbas Khan is playing Kamiyar who is following (stalking) Ayra played by Hania Aamir in Meri Zindagi Hai Tu. He burnt her car, followed her to work and sat under her house all night. Though this is all criminal behaviour, Kamiyar made it look “cute”. Bilal Abbas Khan has to be appreciated here for his impactful acting skills and how he is not making all this look non-sleazy. But the truth of the matter is, this is stalking and no one will find this cute if an actor who plays negative characters like Nayyar Ijaz or Shafqat Cheema was doing the same thing. The latest episode showed how he even brought his parents to Ayra’s house for a marriage proposal and misbehaved with her father when she has already REJECTED him multiple times.
Here is what went down in Meri Zindagi Hai Tu:
The internet is sympathizing with Kamiyar in Meri Zindagi Hai Tu despite his stalking behaviour. One fan wrote, “Girls like this keep crying their whole lives after rejecting such good guys.” Another added, “Her father should not have spoken with Kamiyar so rudly.” One said, “Such girls destroy the lives of such loving boys. They could turn to drugs”
Many viewers are able to understand how Meri Zindagi Hai Tu has been romanticizing problematic behaviors. One person wrote, “This looks good to people only because the lead is Bilal Abbas Khan.” Another added, “No one will like such a red flag. He has no job, stalks and no one knows if he will be a responsible person.” One said, “There is nothing attractive in him.” Here is the other side:
