I think we should leave actors and directors personal life alone. But your article did me make think about all male characters in this show.
Gaffur. Two timed Razia. Conspired to hide the fact that Razia killed his lady love. Abondened his daughter
Rashid. Less said about rashid is better.
Ayaan. Spoilt, reacts without thinking and has a OTT emotional.
Imraan. A two faced lying piece off shit.
Assad. A man who has a tendency to trust wrong people. He follows them blindly after keeping his brain in a safe deposit box.
The females in show are Smart and strong Like Zoya, dilshaad, Bari bi, Nikhat but also bad females like Raia and Zoya. They even have a stupid version like shirin. So females can be strong. Or weak but men all same that is good for nothing.
