Rutba is a new drama airing on ARY Digital. Written by Umera Ahmed and directed by Saqib Khan, the show explores themes of power, corruption, love and betrayal. The story revolves around Hadi and Mahnoor, whose seemingly happy marriage is now facing an unexpected challenge.
The latest episodes, 8 and 9, have sparked discussions among viewers because of Hadi’s growing interest in Sheely. His behaviour has left many fans surprised, especially considering his relationship with Mahnoor.
Hadi’s Behaviour Towards Sheely Raises Questions
Hadi and Mahnoor shared a strong bond, and he had reportedly been in love with her for eight years before their marriage. Mahnoor is now pregnant, but Hadi’s attention appears to be shifting towards Sheely.
In the latest episodes, Hadi spends time with Sheely over coffee and shows concern for her anklet. However, it was his expressions and the way he looked at her that caught viewers’ attention.
Many fans did not expect Hadi to show this kind of interest in another woman. Some had initially compared him to Abu Bakr, a character from Dar e Nijaat, because of his apparent devotion to his wife. However, his recent actions have changed that perception.
Viewers are now comparing his behaviour to Zamil, another character whose actions have drawn criticism. The comparison has become a major talking point among Rutba fans.
Viewers React to Hadi’s Wandering Eye
Social media users were quick to share their reactions to Hadi’s scenes with Sheely. Several viewers criticised his behaviour and questioned his apparent lack of attention towards his pregnant wife.

One viewer commented, “Even Zamil is better than Hadi.” Another joked about the way Hadi looked at Sheely’s butterfly tattoo, saying it seemed as if he wanted to eat it.
A different viewer described Hadi’s behaviour as the “truth of Mard.”
These reactions show how strongly audiences have responded to the latest developments. Hadi’s changing behaviour has also raised questions about what will happen to his marriage with Mahnoor.
With the story moving forward, viewers will be watching closely to see whether Hadi’s interest in Sheely develops further and how Mahnoor responds to the situation.
