Not that we didn’t know but it is not easy being Ayeza Khan.
Ayeza, who is blowing everyone away with her phenomenal performance as Mehwish in Meray Paas Tum Ho, is a recent Instagram post gave her fans an insight into what her daily routine looks like and we have to say we’re very impressed.
The actor revealed that she wakes up at 7 am and gets her daughter Hoorain ready for school. After dropping her off to school, she comes home and wakes up her younger one Rayyan and feeds him before dropping him off at her mother’s house. She then has breakfast with her husband Danish Taimoor after which she leaves for work.

Ayeza shared that she monitors her kids activities all day on the phone and even tries to go home in between shoots whenever she can. Her evenings are spent “feeding, bathing, choosing the princess or batman night-suit every night and listening to Hoorain’s bedtime stories.”
The final part of her day is dedicated to a “dinner date with my favorite person [Danish]” before finally hitting the bed at 3 am.
The next morning she’s up at 7 am again. How she manages to survive on only four hours of sleep is beyond us.
Ending her note, Ayeza said that though the routine gets “difficult to manage,” the amount of love she has received from her fans “has made me the super woman and given me the power to work, to dream and to make all of you proud.”

Meanwhile when a fan asked her how she manages to stay fit with such a tough routine, Ayeza replied,”Wait for the next post.”
We assumed it was going to be a drama about love, betrayal and revenge. But Episode 13 shows it’s a lot more than that. Meray Paas Tum Ho is slowly building into a drama about child custody and the battle between being a wife or a lover.
Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) is slowly realizing that she’s missing her son Rumi, as the high of divorcing her husband for a rich guy is wearing off. She asks Shehwar (Adnan Siddiqui) if she can bring her son home and Shehwar agrees.

Danish (Humayun Saeed) is mourning the loss of his best friend Mateen Sahib and when Mehwish goes over to speak to him about Rumi, Danish tells her that he’s put Rumi in boarding school. He also tells her that she shouldn’t upset him or do anything drastic since Rumi has just settled in and had almost been expelled. Mehwish doesn’t listen and heads to the school to take her son home, only to find out that she needs Danish’s permission to take her son out of school.

The most interesting part of the drama was when Danish consults his lawyer and the lawyer tells him to wait it out saying that no man would want his lover to bring home her ex husband’s son. And at the end of the episode, that’s exactly what happens. Shehwar tells Mehwish that her desire to have Rumi with her on the weekends isn’t one that he’s willing to indulge. He gets the weekends off and he wants her around for him – not have to deal with her former husband’s child.

The episode is the most realistic episode in the show yet. A custody battle, harsh truths and the dark face of reality are revealed – your lover is only your lover until you do what he or she says. When you make a decision based on greed, then it will come back to bite you and you can see the ripples of uncertainty that are affecting Mehwish.
Also, where is Shehwar’s wife? Mehwish is living in his house like she owns it and there is no sign of the real lady of the house. There should definitely be an introduction to his wife when she comes back to town and that will be an episode which cannot be missed.
All the theories we all had after EP 12 have gone down the drain. No one thought “a few months later” Danish (Humayun Saeed) will be pining for his ex-wife Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) and putting his kid Rumi in boarding school. All everyone talked about was how it seemed obvious that Shehwar’s (Adnan Siddiqui) wife would come back and ruin Shehwar and Mehwish’s plan to get married for a happily every after.

Wrong. Although Mehwish is looking super beautiful, and surprisingly more relaxed, in this episode, the do takey ka aadmi Shehwar is not interested in marrying the do take ki aurat. In a dialogue that’s bound to become popular Shehwar tells Mehwish that Shaadiyon mai divorce ho sakti hai lekin muhabbat mai divorce nahi hoti.
Mehwish has travelled all over Europe and has the travel glow
Danish on the other hand, has gotten a promotion and has become besties with Mateen sahib, the older guy who works with him and had cheated on his wife and lives in utter regret of that. Danish has put his son in boarding school and is called by the principal for a meeting. He is told that Rumi is a terrible student and in walks Hania (Hira Mani) who is Rumi’s teacher.

She complains to Danish about how terrible a student Rumi is and how he needs to take his kid out of school. Danish asks for one last chance and they agree.
In the end of the episode we see Danish meeting with Mateen sahib to tell him that he’s planning to become a very rich businessman. Mateen sahib tells him his sob story again (in some very pretty dialogues) and then has a heart attack and is taken to the hospital.
Danish and Mateen sahib’s heart to heart
Danish calls his daughter and finds out that surprise surprise, Hania is his best friend’s daughter and when she walks in the hospital, she and Danish find out her father has died.

Ok so, what will happen next? Danish will have to marry Hania and find love again (and become a rich businessman because of course, he has to) and Mehwish will realize that Shehwar will never marry her and she will always be the side wali.
That’s it? Predictable and boring, here’s to hoping that this won’t happen although all the signs point to the fact that this is the most obvious route the drama will take.
Hira Mani is a good actress and did a good job portraying a daughter who has just lost her father. But she lacks expression and comes across as a rather boring figure. Earlier, in .a behind the scenes interview, she spoke about her role in the drama and said, “[my role is]In fact it’s very similar to how I am in my life, a soft hearted girl. H for Hira and H for Hania, you’ll like this character very much”.
She will really have to take her acting up a notch for her role to become a prominent one and to take the drama out of the boring path it is about to take.
You won’t be able to tell that 40 minutes went by in one of the fastest episodes of Meray Pass Tum Ho. Just 12 episodes in, the show is bound to be one of the biggest blockbusters in Pakistani drama history.
Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) has decided to leave her son and husband for loaded Shehwar (Adnan Siddiqui). Husband Danish (Humayun Saeed) relents and tells her that she can go and as predicted serves her with divorce papers in this episode.
She doesn’t flinch when he gives them to her but there is a flicker – of shock or happiness, one can’t be certain – but she is definitely taken by surprise when he hands them to her.
One can’t be sure in the beginning of the episode of Danish’s motives. He brings a cake to celebrate his wedding anniversary with Mehwish, which seems like a really weird and creepy thing to do since she’s leaving him for another man.
Making Mehwish cut a wedding anniversary cake with him
The weirdness of it freaks Mehwish out too and she tell Shehwar to come over and get her – eight hours before she actually has to leave. We start to see cracks in Danish’s cool demeanour as he starts passing comments on his marriage with Mehwish – and we finally see that he really is incredibly angry and just very good at hiding it.
Mehwish on the other hand, couldn’t care less and one loses a little respect for her in this episode. When Danish hands her her phone, she finds that the phone is covered in Danish’s blood – blood from an accident he had had the same night. She ignores it – and checks for Shehwar’s message. Ouch.
Mehwish realizing Danish’s blood is on her hands
Her soon-to-be ex-husband and father of your child is bleeding and she couldn’t care less. Seems like a whole new Mehwish. Ayeza Khan had warned her fans not to watch this episode since they would hate her at the end of it. Don’t hate her but definitely don’t like her anymore.
Danish’s biting responses and out of the blue reactions make this episode a truly riveting watch. Humayun Saeed has done it again, proving he is the best actor in the industry. He succeeds in making everyone watching feel for him and also feel incredibly uncomfortable watching him behave and react so strangely. He offers his cheating wife and her lover tea and asks them to sit in his house- until he tells Mehwish to leave with Shehwar.

When walking them to the door, he says to Shehwar that, “waisey tou bohat intelligent businessman lagte hain aap, lekin yahan bhao karte huye hairaan kardia aapne mujhe. Is do takay ki larki kay liye aap mujhe 50 million dey rahe thay…“ and that’s it.
Danish telling Shehwar that Mehwish is a do take ki aurat
Mehwish hears it and realizes that that’s the moment she truly lost her husband – not when she told him she wanted to leave, not when he found out that she had an affair, not when he gave her divorce papers.
Mehwish realizes she’s lost her husband forever
She realizes that she’s lost the man who truly loved her when she’s walking out of her house and he reveals how he truly feels, you can tell – she has a flicker of admiration and fear for him. Admiration that he finally, finally stood up for himself and fear because now she knows that she can never come back.

Moreso, in case you missed it back then, The Current shot a fun video with Momin in which he showcased his brilliant comic skills. You don’t want to miss this one.
Two episodes in, ARY’s latest offering Meray Pass Tum Ho is being discussed everywhere – from Whatsapp groups to Facebook groups. ARY knew they had a hit on their hands with Humayun Saeed, Ayeza Khan and Adnan Siddiqui in the main roles. And this isn’t your run of the mill saas/bahu drama.
The story begins with a happily married Danish (Humayun Saeed) and Mehwish (Ayeza Khan) who live within a government officer’s means. They have a son who isn’t going to a good school because of lack of finances. Danish is smitten by his wife and is willing to do everything and anything to make her happy. Mehwish, on the other hand, is materialistic and wants expensive jewellery because her friend Anushay (Meher Bano) is loaded and she wants to be too. To make Mehwish happy, Danish gives up his morals and resorts to corruption, because as the man he must give her what she wants.
So Danish turns to becoming a corrupt government official and getting lakh, two lakh rupee kickbacks to buy his wife jewellery so she can compete with her richer friend Anushay. In walks, Anushay’s husband’s boss Shahwaar (Adnan Siddiqui) who is a ladies man, has a wife who lives abroad, travels a lot with his secretaries and has a Prado.
The Kabab mai haddi
At the end of the second episode, we kind of know what’s coming. Mehwish, entranced by Shahwaar’s good lucks, dashing smile and above all, money, money, money is going to flutter towards him, and Danish, getting a feeler of Shahwaar’s interest in his wife asks her to stay away from such a “loose” character.
The moment when they spot Shahwaar together
The actors are great and the story is realistic. The script has been penned by Khalil-ur-Rehman Qamar while Nadeem Baig has directed this – both masters of their games. The lust for money taking over a genuinely loving marriage happens – to both men and women and it seems the drama might be taking that interesting route. Let’s see how it goes since the twist is bound to be epic.
