My problem never has been EMA, so that's why it's not an issue for me. I've always been complaining about lack of agency, and also how the situation is portrayed.
Here Chudail is clearly shown as the villain and vamp. Yes, Aahil is backed into a corner and doing these things--but it's portrayed as such. That's the difference. And he is still doing it with agency.
Unlike on the other side...is Shaad grey, ambiguous, villain, flawed, delusional, or a stand-up guy, or what? It's not clear. Jannat is not even backed into a corner, she has no clue. If it had happened with her knowing she had amnesia and knowing she wasn't married to Shaad, and had a moment with Shaad or asked him to tie up her blouse because she trusts him, I would not have complained. Instead she did it because she believed him to be her husband. She was operating on false information and acting according to that false information, and acting without agency.
