Hemsworth is not my cup of tea either. Gimme Laurie. 😳

I was thinking today about how much I liked how they demarcated the place of music in Manik and Nandini's lives during last week's epis. For Manik, music is expression- they've shown him singing in joy, in pain, or murdering his guitar strings in anger. But his music has always been expressive of his moods. Whereas for Nandini, music is a distraction, a way to seek peace when she feels lost and restless. It's more like a consolation she seeks outside of herself, like that one time she played the veena during the toxic track. & every time she loses that grip on herself, her music goes away too- Musicana, the Pandit. Music is essential for both of them, but for very different reasons. She will always need it even if it isn't her career.

It's sad that this connection with music never came across as it should have, especially in Nandini's case, both due to the writing and the acting. Music overall deserved a bigger place in this show, but oh well.

Yes I am VERY bored. Indulge me. 😆

I kinda feel more angry when i see Mukti dressed up in a better Indian outfit wearing a bindi (right the rocker chick wearing a bindi) , while Nandu is drowning in a tent.

I know , so much suffocation and Mumbai be humid - eww, I pity Niti for wearing that monstrosity.
