Prithvi? LOL, I recently started watching that show.. he does have some of the no nonsense attitude and is eye candy as well. But, he doesn't evoke in me the craze that Mayank did right from the beginning. There is only one Mayank.. oh wait, I should say was.

in the beginning days, he brought him to life really well....also in tracks like the jungle one, the beach, barn scenes and as you pointed out in that rain scene....that look of utter contentment *sigh* It was so sweet.

Mayank was truly different from the run of the mill loverboy types prevalent in most TV shows.....THAT'S what made him so special...but now it's all ruined in a flurry of cutouts, tacky lockets and shaheedi dialogues :((

Indeed Anu. Mayank was so different, yet so charming. He had all the qualities I desire in a perfect guy. Even his imperfections were so relatable. But now he has been moulded into the same old rehash of the quintessential romantic hero.. is that a message to me to lower my standards? 😆*sigh* Debs yaar, so true.....he had his own special kind of charm....I related to him like I hadn't to a character in ages! LOL I don't know if that's a message to lower your standards but it does seem to have been proved that only a few of us ever enjoyed Mayank for that uniqueness.....the creatives and most of the audience seems happy enough to see him in the loverboy avatar wherein no absudity seems too small for him to act out :S.....The Mayank Sharma that was at one point the ONLY realistic character in this show LAUGHING at all the absurd frivolous things that the ppl around him did is now a part of the circus....*sigh

@bold: That look of contentment was a stage I was willing to forgive and forget all. They didn't utilize such a golden chance! 😆 It was almost comical to see the substandard 'date' and the disgusting locket be follow ups to that heavenly rain scene. I knowwwwww yaar! I knowwwwwwww! Despite myself, I was willing to overlook ALL the crap they had shown before that with the OTT mind games and cheesy dialogues and what not....it was indeed a golden chance to somehow redeem it all! And they squandered that as well.....in such a nightmarish way! Ughhh🤢🤢

Oh what an amazing epi it was *sigh* The last time I saw the Mayank-Nupur I loved

100% agree with you. While the P is an eye candy, he cannot elicit the same emotions. Mayank wasn't your conventional M&B prince charming type characters, he was just Mayank, like Nupur had once said. Mayank doesn't have a fancy cell phone, expensive clothes, a bike, leather jacket et al. You can see him calling Nupur from a PCO, walking on the streets, waiting on a B.E.S.T bus stop or traveling in an auto. The moment he tried to turn into a figment of Nupur's imagination, he was lost to me.
