I read the WU and now even MaNan are putting me off. Mazaak banaa kar rakh diya hai. I had thought I could zone out this cheap publicity stunt in the name of a social cause, but nah, mujhse na hoga. I feel like shaking Nandini and slapping Manik, toh kya faayda?
I will take a week out to detox or something.

@Anu: Same. Nandu drying buckets over poor Mukti's "plight" and Manik consoling her *shudder*

Cannot bring myself to watch that cringefest.. not even for MaNan..

I can't decide if it's a good or bad thing that I'm not as shallow as I thought I was.. right now, it's just making me feel very finicky and generally annoyed😔

Such a failure of a fangirl I am.. my tunnel vision sucks😆

Wish, Anu: I've never cared about offscreen shit and never will. Actors and their real-life persona don't affect me at all, it's always the characters they play. Easy to compartmentalize.

Par yahaan main kya ignore karoon, aur kaise? It's not a random nonsensical love-line which goes parallel to the MaNan story. I can't even ff the scenes, or zone out the usual whiny behaviour of the fuddu friends. Just this entire thing is such a disservice to the very cause they're supposedly supporting, and the fact that they've made NANDINI the face of this mess at the cost of HER OWN story, it's pissing me off even more. And don't even get me started on Manik, I've been mad at his shenanigans even before this whole tamasha started. Feels ka kachhra kar diya.

These people don't know the first thing about women's rights, and they've now made it all about 'showing the boys' and 'respecting women' and just all the worst kind of lame shit possible. Saari behoodgi utha ke iss zabardasti ke fattu movement mein ghussa di. And to think that I had actually admired them for handling issues like homosexuality and pre-marital sex with a degree of maturity unusual for desi tv.

Yeah they've interwoven the issue too closely into Nandini and MaNan to manage to IGNORE it...and they aren't leaving any chance to go nuts promoting it offscreen also so no respite anywhere...latent feminism jaag gaya hai har random seeta geeta ka...chaahe otherwise women's right ka w bhi na samajh aata ho...but now everyone's all let's go beat up random boys and bring about change in our society...such maturity, much wow.

So very easy to rile up mob mentality.

I think Nandu was the one stable link that used to connect me to the show...inhonein uski bhi dhajjiyaan udaa di...har show mein inevitably yeh moment aana hi hota hai...lol should have expected it.
