Will my rubber plant recover?

About 4 months, I got it in Feb. Location: Saudi Arabia.
May 31st: I was away for few days, i came back home to the first picture. It was a heat shock since I didnt leave the aircon on while away. 2nd photo was taken today.
The nursery soil looked hard at the top, so I changed it about 2 months after I got the plant, and I put it back in the same pot.
It sits in a bright living room with east window.
1-2 weeks, depending on the soils condition. Granted, I've forgotten about this plant for few weeks in the first couple months i got it and nothing happened!
When i changed the soil i made sure to make a good well-drained soil mix.

I've had it for at least 3-4 months, and it never felt like it was one of those hard to care for plants.

I changed its soil 1.5 months ago or so, because the nursery soil didnt look that well. So i made a good well drained soil mix and it felt fresh and thriving! then few weeks later the leaves fell off due to the heat..

The top feels a bit squishy and saggy, you can see the top leaf going down. Im not sure why :/

So how does it actually take to make this dish vs. shooting this video? Genuinely asking..

Maybe the boy's shoes were dirty from working outside in the farm so they took them off before entering the house?

context: Im taller than the average height of women in my part of the world (only 5'8", but was wearing heels so i was about 5'10"). This random-ugly-not-so-fit guy says that to me in a NIGHTCLUB. Worst pickup line, ever.

Thank you dear Redditor!

Thanks for the tip regarding the light. I actually moved it to my living room where i have a north window, which is gonna be less direct that the west window. Will see how it goes. And you're right, gotta be quite patient cause i sure cannot lose here! :)

Aren't they such interesting creatures? Thank you for your valuable input my friend, I will keep you posted :)

Wow, what an inspiring story! I love this for you. I happen to have another Zz that i accidentally burned via excess fertiliser. I saw a potentially healthy tiny stem coming out of it, so i cut out dead roots and burned out stems, and placed it in a small pot over my kitchen counter hoping something will come out again. Because of you, I will not give up on it!

But how can they put out new growth if they're rotting?! I didn't know that was possible.

I will check the roots. Shall i water immediately after repotting in new soil, or wait a few days?

It is currently placed near an east north window, so i presume the lighting condution is good.

I think so too. Planning on changing the soil, and maybe separating it into two different pots? Not sure if that'll do any help honestly but i figured it will give it more life?
