- Pakistani drama serial Tere Bin released a highly controversial episode, but it had a twist that deviated from expectations.
- The promo suggested the possibility of marital rape or abuse, but the actual episode revealed a consensual relationship between the characters.
- The episode received significant backlash on social media, with differing opinions on the portrayal and handling of sensitive topics.
Pakistani drama serial Tere Bin has finally rolled out the super controversial episode we all had been waiting for, and as expected, it had a twist. Before we go on, let’s recap what happened in Tere Bin.
The episode’s promo showed an angry Murtasim closing the door and then Meerab crying sitting next to the bed and he emotional on the bed. This scene implements that either Murtasim lost control and abused his wife or committed marital rape.
With Haya’s dialogues following, we can tell that what happened was probably not consensual. However, after receiving major backlash from the internet and a call to ban the show, the episode was the opposite.

The episode did not have marital rape, the relationship that both Meerab and Murtasim had was indeed consensual and because they ‘could not control themselves’ both of them fell in their own eyes (hence the crying and breaking of mirrors).
Moreover, the transitions and continuous voice-overs also give away that the episode was dubbed and edited to avoid the public’s backlash.
Social Media Reacts to the Controversial Episode
Here’s how social media reacted to the episode:
What should’ve happened.
M: Touching a man without his consent is called harassment. *slaps her* How dare you harass MY HUSBAND?
Haya: …

Meerab may have given her consent, but doesnβt mean it OKAY π
She looked scared and traumatized after it π#TereBin #MeerAsimβ DheeShra is Life (@DheeShraisLife) May 24, 2023
I know that but people who cry about Meerab’s character flaws conveniently ignore Murtasim’s dumbness on Haya and MZ matter makes me question their levelπ€ #TereBin

They had deleted this scene! How can the upcoming track make sense now with all these edited scenes. Atleast they had given us the original plot.#TereBin #WahajAli #YumnaZaidi #Meerasim #Meerab #Murtasim pic.twitter.com/EZBubbIiMT
