Zayb Khan has opened up about Esra Ayesha after his unexpected exit from Tamasha 5, saying that he genuinely cares about her as she continues to deal with his departure.
Zayb Khan’s elimination from Tamasha 5 came as a surprise to many viewers, especially Esra Ayesha, who became visibly emotional after he left the house. The two had grown close during their time on the show, and Esra has been seen struggling with his absence in the episodes following his exit.
After leaving the house, Zayb joined an Instagram Live session and spoke about his experience on the reality show, his family and his bond with Esra.
During the live session, Zayb revealed that he had given the Tamasha team the name of his actor friend Ahmed when they asked about bringing someone close to him into the house. However, the team did not agree to bring Ahmed and instead wanted one of Zayb’s family members to appear.
Zayb explained that his family is conservative and belongs to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, adding that they were not comfortable appearing on camera.
He then spoke about Esra and said he understood that she was hurt after his elimination. Zayb revealed that before leaving the house, he asked Hassan to take care of her. According to him, Hassan was looking after Esra, while Babrik Shah also visited her once or twice.
Zayb admitted that he did not like Babrik going over to check on Esra, but added that he would let it go.
During the Instagram Live, Zayb was also seen holding Esra’s locket in his hand. He repeatedly tossed it into the air and caught it while talking to viewers. The moment caught the attention of fans, who started discussing his feelings for Esra.
Zayb also made it clear that he genuinely cares about Esra. He explained that he is a strong person and does not always show his emotions in front of the camera or cry openly like other people.
Meanwhile, Esra has become increasingly emotional since Zayb’s elimination, with recent episodes showing her crying and missing him. Fans believe she had developed a strong bond with him during their time in the Tamasha 5 house.
Zayb’s Instagram Live also sparked mixed reactions. Some viewers questioned his feelings for Esra, while others accused him of being jealous of Babrik Shah. Several fans defended Esra, praising her loyalty and saying she was genuinely missing Zayb.
With Zayb now outside the house and Esra still competing, viewers remain curious about how their bond will develop after the show.
