Kashaf is willing to go the extra mile in order to make the kind of home which she could never have before because her father refused to accept them. A balanced marriage however is one in which both the partners play their part. It is a woman’s responsibility to make a marriage work and most often when it doesn’t work out, the woman is held responsible. I expected Kashaf to question her mother when it came to compromising because it is very true that girls are expected to compromise more than the men in our social set up. Rafia rightly advises Kashaf to be wise, flexible and compromising. Kashaf is still fearful and reluctant and probably for the first time is going to leave it to her luck to decide how things turn out for her. Zaroon has faith that his marriage will work out despite of all these differences because Kashaf is a very nice girl and also because he loves her so much. Kashaf and Zaroon know only too well that they are very different from one another and the conversation about the “chand” just amplified the differences between the two.
