Whereas book is written and then sold. Market, product differs hence the constraints. Which is why having two damaged souls running parallel is not possible for a daily audience because they need a moral compass to justify the grey character.
Here is something I tell you which is subjective about Nandini , she never gives up on people. We saw it happening with DHruv, Navya and now when she does that with Manik, people go oh why is she always running behind him. Why is she so needy? Do you notice how she is perceived. Because she is the moral compass she will forever be judged and because she is the narrator we will always be at odds with her character as our sympathies with the protagonist increases.
If you wanted her struggles then that would have been established in the first 67 episodes but those were needed to define his world. Justify him. We couldn't have run it with Nandini's struggles because she was shown to be his star , the one who brought perspective in his world.
They can only to to Nandini once they are done with Manik.
Art is art. Great art is not about excuses, not really. They could have made it finite or come back with a season. We all see this one show more as a book than a show so we all are bound to have expectations from it.
Nandini doesn't have to be damaged. Every single person, damaged or no, has more than his/her share of conflicts. She's a teenager at the end of the day. She's bound to and should have these conflicts. About music, about being able to perform, about so many other things. Why always put everything on Nandini and Manik has the free pass being grey?
And the reason she's perceived that way is because Cvs themselves have put her on a pedestal, a lot of audience cannot connect with her because they find Manik more intriguing and while some feel exactly the opposite.
And here's my problem. Why is it Nandini who has to again come and tell Manik, in fact, as everybody said, fight with him about thinking of them?
I know you'll say because that's how Manik is, and he'll learn now, and because Dhruv means the world to him but that's not the point. It was already 30% established in the musicana track and that jungle part where he comes and snatches Nandini's hand from Dhruv's. So all of that gone for a toss now?
The struggle should've started from midway, from Manik's mind where he goes back and revisits musicana and giving up himself in nandini's life for Dhruv and continued as he struggles to let his buddy be and find a way not back to square 1, i can't give up on my buddy, then again starting from scratch and Nandini coming and telling him you've to fight for us. In fact Nandini should this time chide him. She should tell him that he talks about hope but he's right because he never fights for them, never ever. Why should he escape it too? Why should she be a sandwich btw this fab5 ka museebat. Why always she have to tell Manik ke please yeh karo toh usko akal ayegi? Why always keep undermining his set of capabilities?
I know he'll get around but why from the scratch? The conflict was already established episodes and episodes before. But he has to be spoonfed everything from Nandini's part and that is because it's always about establishing Manik's struggles and reestablishing them and incorporating Nandini in a way rather than giving them their individual aspects and moments.
Too much of anything annoys anybody. They can easily throw in a Nandini conflict here.
About music
or Rishab.
and even as they've their set of differences, he'll be there for her, just doing what she does for him, and enable her the way she does.
The first 67 episodes were the best of the show.😆 they definitely had individual climbing but so inter related.
