Re: Umera Ahmed’s Kankar
Exactly. The change in Sikander is abrupt whilst the rest of the drama is dragging. It’s not obvious in the drama that he has issues…as it was with zaroon in ZGH because the drama showed his upbringing wasn’t a healthy one. In Kankar it isn’t clearly shown. But still there are a few signs…subtle ones. If you look at the beginning episodes where Sikander is giving the cold shoulder to his mom and being stubborn about marrying Kiran while knowing that she had rejected him…you see a quiet arrogance to him…he does have a slight smugness.
Then you see him buying Kiran expensive clothes, jewelry, a car…all within a fairly short period of time. So he’s materialistic…and seems to think that giving materialistic favors or favors in general entitles him to full control over the person…in this case Kiran. Of course his mom’s comments that “bv ko itni choot mat do, itna sar par mat charhao”…may have played a role as well.
