Mohabbatain Chahatain is currently in its third week but the one character that has registered itself amongst the audience is that of Tara, played by Armeena Khan.
Not only does she carry the ‘evil’ look in her eyes and face, but she is also evil in every sense of the way. For some, it might be a throwback to the ‘across-the-border’ dramas that dominated the Pakistani scene before HUM TV rendered them obsolete by providing excellent content, but such people do exist in our society.
This week we will discuss Tara in Character of the Week and analyze what makes her do things that another person would think twice before attempting.
Why Is Tara so detestable despite the drama being three weeks old?
Tara might be way good looking than the other characters in the drama but deep down inside, she hasn’t matured at all. She doesn’t know how to react when people say no to her and maybe that has got something to do with her upbringing or some complexes she might have developed growing up.
She doesn’t forget that the child of their ‘rescuers’ informed his father that he saw her smoking on the terrace and takes revenge in her own twisted way; she doesn’t like the fact that her friend (Hira Mani) and her husband (Junaid Khan) are an ideal couple who trust each other with their lives. The reason her own husband (Tipu Sharif) left her in the first episode is given credibility in the later episodes when he finds out that she ‘cleaned up’ his whole house, and his bank locker just to get back to him!
What makes Tara worth discussing?
Tara is not just a person but a phenomenon that exists in our society. People with no children of their own don’t like those who do, those who don’t get attention at home seek attention in other places by doing weird stuff and those with no backing from their family don’t accept others to have it either.
The way Armeena Khan has played the character, the way she has changed from a bad person to an evil one is spine-chilling, you don’t expect someone who has played romantic leads on TV and films to do something this ‘out of character’ and then expect to get away with it!
What makes Tara a different kind of character currently on TV?
If you thought Sarah Khan’s Miraal was a bad person in Sabaat, think again … Tara in Mohabbatain Chahatain is neither to be loved nor hated, she is there to be loathed. She is an immature woman who refuses to grow up, is intelligent enough to plot the downfall of her friend’s happy marriage, and shrewd enough to steal everything from her ex-husband’s house, shift it to some other place and act as if it was robbed by someone else.
She didn’t slap anyone in public or private, instead stole the limelight at her friend’s party by claiming she was pregnant when she knew that her friend was the one who was expecting a baby. She then manipulated the receptionist at a local lab into falsifying her report to make it look like she was telling the truth, and that’s something one hasn’t done in local dramas.
She likes to eavesdrop 24×7 because she doesn’t need extra money, her ex-husband’s stash that she stole is enough for her to live without caring about finances, and since she is living with his friend’s family, and can’t see them happy, she will try to do what no ‘target killer’ can achieve – make them suspicious of each other so that they are no longer happy.
How Tara is different from Armeena Khan’s other characters?
Who can forget the stunning Saman in Bin Roye or the happy-go-lucky Haniya in Karb; even in the feature film Yalghaar her character was in love with an Army officer (Bilal Ashraf) who achieves martyrdom, generating sympathies for her character. However, with Tara, she gets no sympathy at all from anyone, not even from her husband who divorced her in front of everyone because he couldn’t take it anymore.

Armeena Khan has done a fabulous job because she not only acts evil but looks evil which is very difficult to do especially when you are a hazel-eyed beauty who blossoms when romance is in the air. To do something that doesn’t come naturally to you always gets extra points in my book, and Armeena Khan has achieved that by playing a purely villainous role and impressed the audience, or made them hate her for a change.
How should Tara’s story in Mohabbatain Chahatain End?
No matter how huge or shrewd a villain is in a film or a drama, he or she usually meets a horrible end to send a message that there is no place for evil in the world. Tara should also meet such an end, especially since she doesn’t care who the person is against whom she is plotting.
Prompting the very people who saved her to go against each other could be attributed to the fact that she didn’t have a happy married life but rubbing a cake on the shirt of a kid, telling him frightening stories, claiming he is lying when he isn’t, is pure evil.
Had it been done by some other character, it could be attributed to the fact that she doesn’t have a child of her own, but Tara isn’t an ordinary character, she is steps ahead of the other person and that’s why her end should be exemplary. She shouldn’t be happy because of her devious nature and ideally, the sooner her act is caught up, the better for the others.
