In the latest really messed up development of ‘Tere Bin’ it turns out that Meerab, Murtasim did it consensually

We all know that the latest act in the cesspool that is the Pakistani drama circus was the controversial promo of ‘Tere Bin’ which aired last week. The trailer implied that female lead Meerab (played by Yumna Zaidi) was raped by her husband Murtasim (played by Wahaj Ali).

Twitter users were shocked, tagging the actors, production staff and even the writer, Nooran Makhdoom herself, to criticise the development as deeply misogynist and horrifying. But then, instead of reassuring the audience, Makhdoom decided to fan the flames even more with controversial statements given to Arab News, defending the marital rape by saying that it has been going on for a long time on Pakistani screens.

Mmmm.. still not a good reason though.

Finally, the episode has aired and it turns out, the sex was not rape. It was consensual.

Yes, you read that right.

We are dragged through the first agonizing 15 minutes of Mariam’s marriage, and her reluctance to open her heart, yada yada.

And then we are reluctantly led to THAT scene where our favorite toxic jori, Murtasim and Meerab, actually did the deed in a consensual manner, but even that led to a lot of ronay dhonay.

Twitter was mostly amused but some were horrified at how a once popular show has destroyed itself by pandering to sensationalism. Kudos to them for taking out the marital rape but really, where is the plot going?

This is some new level of sh*t writing I mean who the tell cries this way on a consensual sex and why the hell did they promoted it as MR and were justifying it everywhere!?????

Why is nothing making sense

Not wanting to burst anyone's bubble but #TereBin has seriously gone down the drain! MR was clearly part of script which has been changed last min with voiceovers and now none of Meerub's reactions will make zero sense as usual!
