The story of the drama series revolves around a loving couple in which the husband changes over time after becoming wealthy. The central theme of the story focuses on Tabish ridiculing his wife of 14 years, Bina, and criticizing how her appearance has changed over time. The drama gained widespread popularity for the scenes in which Tabish fat-shames his wife and questions her credibility as a housewife.

Aap ki Izzat’s recent scenes where Bina confronts her husband for being a narcissistic husband are going viral and are being shared by millions of users on social media. The clips were also shared by actor Feroze Khan’s ex-wife, Aliza Sultan, on her Instagram. Along with the posts, she shared a few taunting statements hinting at her own life story. She wrote, “And trust me, those who don’t care are the ones you you give your all to. That’s the human nature”. Here are the stories which Aliza Sultan shared.

After Aliza shared the drama stories, Feroze Khan’s fans got triggered and started bashing her, claiming she was throwing shade on her ex-husband, Feroze Khan. Aliza Sultan specifically reposted the part where Beena said, “My kids? How can they be my kids, I didn’t bring them with me from my home before marriage”

She further posted the parts where Beena confronts Tabish for questioning her worth during the fourteen years of their marriage.

This triggered Feroze Khan’s fans who called her out harshly. One wrote, “Instead of bashing your ex-husband you should have kept a track of your monthly cycle in order to avoid pregnancies” One Feroze Khan Fan write, “You are a victim mindset, a bad person, an attention seekers who doesn’t want to move on”. Many others said that she always brings the kids in her debate against Feroze Khan. Aliza Sultan responded to the haters saying someone really got triggered when I shared Urwa Hocane’s stories from Aap Ki Izzat.

Actor Hani Taha, in a recent interview, opened up about the making of the drama serial Aik Mohabbat Aur, in which she stars alongside Ahad Raza Mir and Maya Ali. She touched upon last-minute script changes and the various transformations that occur during the journey from script to screen.

Explaining just how much a script can evolve once it reaches the set, Hani stated, “The whole point of having a really good director and a really good actor is that you improvise together.” She added that not everything written on paper ultimately survives to be shown on screen.

Hani revealed that an early draft of the script for Aik Mohabbat Aur initially took a very different direction for one particular character, who was originally written to influence a male lead. The actor shared that Qudsiya Ali’s character, Maham, was initially intended to develop romantic feelings for Mir’s character, Haroon. She noted that the inspiration for this subplot was traced by the creative team to “a very bad Indian drama.”

Although Hani acknowledged that the subplot was eventually removed “very rightfully, because it would have taken away from the whole story,” she also stated that it ultimately was “such an irresponsible thing” to have been considered in the first place.

Furthermore, she addressed viewers’ criticism regarding a particular scene involving her character, saying that she stood firmly by the director’s creative call. “I am a director’s actor. I completely trust the director. And I completely trusted him with it,” Hani explained.

She added that art remained open to interpretation and that audiences were entitled to their own perspectives. “It’s up to people if someone liked or disliked it. I honestly did not think there was anything wrong with that shot. Otherwise, I would have addressed it at that time that this is not right,” she said.

Moving on to discuss the broader entertainment industry, the actor pushed back against the notion that Pakistan lacked skilled and capable crew members. “There are so many film schools in our country, so you can’t say that there is no talent. People know. People are dying for opportunities,” Hani emphasized.

Regarding her own journey in the field, she shared the setbacks that came with being a struggling actor early in her career, recalling that she lost a project opposite Saba Qamar. “This happens a lot, unfortunately, in business. I cried a lot; I was very young,” Hani shared candidly.

She also described the uncertainty that actors often faced, even after they had signed the relevant contracts. “We even talk about the contract sometimes; the contract is signed, and then they say sorry to you. Or you go on set, you’ve shot for two days, then the director says, I don’t understand this,” the actor said, describing the delays and disappointments she encountered early in her career.

Furthermore, Hani also discussed the sense of responsibility that came with the job. She noted, “The job of an artist is to reform society, and we should do something that has a positive impact on society.”

Hani, who began her career as a filmmaker and documentarian, has previously worked with the BBC and Al Jazeera. She also collaborated closely with Oscar-winning director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy before transitioning to acting. She appeared in the film Motorcycle Girl and the short film In a Hail of Broken Glass, before moving into television with projects such as Saraab and Neem. Hani later featured in Mian Biwi Bachon Samait and Meri Zindagi Hai Tu.

She wrote, “Dear Readers, “We are truly grateful for your tremendous love and support for Umera Ahmed’s novels. We have been noticing a lot of AI-generated images, videos, and reels trying to depict scenes, characters, and dialogues from the novels. We kindly ask all the content creators and pages to not generate or share any AI visuals of Umera Ahmed’s work. It is a very personal experience that literature cultivates within you when you read a novel, and AI content deprives you of that deep connection. Especially in the case of Peer-e-Kamil (s.a.w.), we feel that no one should dilute the beauty and sanctity of such a deep, sensitive, and spiritual tale through AI visuals. We value the tremendous creativity and energy that goes into developing and running these wonderful pages. But it would be a great shame if people started diluting the beautiful words of Umera Ahmed. Let the magic of her words touch you and everybody else, just the way it is meant to.”
