^^ DB most people are saying that it is his own insecurities that are getting the best of him. I have read an interesting analysis on another forum which I'll post here because like you, I am still going "what the heck Asher!"
I dont think Ashar is jealous per se of Khizar. To me, the issue is more about his own frustrations with his insecurities. AS a succesful businessman he cannot fathom his own response to Khizar, much less verbalize it. He’s very conscious of the age difference b/w him and Khirad. He’s afraid that Khirad might be attracted to Khizar, b/c of his relative youth and zinda dili (the references to Ashar being a buddhi rooh in this and an earlier episode). And the reason he can’t confront Khirad about it is because then in his mind he would no longer be an open-minded, modern, liberal, man of the world, rather he would be no better than the ordinary man on the street, who is insecure, conservative. Also, Khizar keeps complimenting her, and keeps telling everybody about how well Khirad is doing in her studies and all these things also worry Ashar that now she’s getting a taste of her own self-worth and socializing with other people her own age, would she also feel confined by him, his age, his idiosycracies and traped by hhe responsibilities of her marriage.
"Hence, you see Ashar, a foreign-qualified, broad-minded character, distancing himself from his wife. It is, unfortunately, again the mother and her family, who are making it seem as if Khirad is inclined towards Khizr. The way the situations and the dialogues are being manufactured, any sane husband would wonder what was going on. But would a sane husband retreat into silence instead of talking it out?
Yes, unfortunately most husbands would do that – and certainly more out of outrage than sanity. And hence, it is safe to say that Ashar’s character is truly a real-life one – he is insecure about the age difference between him and Khirad; he is definitely afraid of losing Khirad and yet, he cannot bring himself to talk about this because he feels discussing these feelings would only make him seem weak and vulnerable.
Will Ashar ever realize his mistakes or own them? Will he ever communicate his feelings and his emotions? Find that out in the following weeks.
On a concluding note, this drama serial has beautifully portrayed the importance of communication in marriage and one can sincerely hope all couples and couples-to-be learn some vital lessons from it. But these will come soon in another post."
I'd really like to know where the main house is in this drama?? I love the indoor pool, and how ashar/khirad's bedroom has this huge sliding door that opens up towards the pool! Very pretty.
I remember watching one of Sarmad's earlier interviews on JPJ, and he said they shot most of this play in Mirpur Khas, not sure if this house is there.
no matter how well educated they are as Asher , a “Yale " graduate , handsome very successful man and still a"dork” 
I too wonder who owns it! It’s a small city, shouldn’t be too hard to figure out
