Mantu and Amu, its perhaps one of the best developed love stories on television. their love story is so natural that i can put myself in their shoes and feel comfortable wearing it. their love story isn't the ott passion that makes my skin feel uncomfortably tingly, like I'm breaching privacy. but its the kind of passion that warms my heart and touches my soul. this is the first story of a couple on indian tv where the guy doesn't need to heavy breathe on the girl or look at her with smoldering eyes to make me feel the love, i can feel it in mantu's affection and in amu's devotion. theres a guy, simple good human being, he's funny and he's charismatic and loved by all. yet theres no alpha male complex. his responsibilities have made him grounded but he's talented and dreams of greatness someday. he's a bit clueless and a bi dense about the opposite sex but whats a man without his flaws. and then theres the girl, a rich father's comfortable child, whose known nothing but her every desire being fulfilled before the word left her mouth but brought down by the bitter taste of misfortune. the amu that started haughty and naughty but never vapid is now understanding, nurturing and accepting of everything but still a fighter to the core. someone who can do ANYTHING. the most interesting thing is the backdrop of shiv bhakti that ties mantu with amu. they remind me of mahadev and sati-parvati journey of DKDM. mantu actually embodies many qualities of a vairagya mahadev- complete in himself and his only goal is the betterment of the world, for mantu its the betterment of his world his city, no connection with samsarik politics or understanding of the moh of women. and amaya mathur was like sati, prideful and immature but fiercely protective of her loved ones and gradually that love made her turn to mahadev, to mantu and she evolved into the mata parvati version of amaya, the way she is now- a devotee to her God, to her love and to her family. letting go of her id, not asking for anything in return and not taking any shortcuts. taking on whatever role they need her to take- whether its a friend, a confidante, a protector, a provider, a disciple, a nurturer or a guide; just like mata parvati. and its working, her shiv is coming out of his self-imposed detachment from romantic love and falling deep. its a slow process and I've never enjoyed one so much before. I'm damned excited for it to progress!

Wow that was beautiful and so accurate!!

I love how you compared Mantu-Amaya to Shiv-Parvati. It is actually amazing to see that in a modern perspective. It is perhaps one of the most sought after love stories projected on a way relatable to today's generation.

Another thing that I love is Amaya's transformation. I was looking at caps of the initial episodes and honestly I would say that I couldn't even recognize that these two girls are the same person. Kudos to Hiba for portraying both shades of Amaya Mathur so flawlessly.

I am also loving the way their love story is progressing. Finally a normal love story of normal couple. I was so bored of those----------Love hate love stories they always show on serial.

Finally Mantu a normal, sober, gentleman------who is kind but not bhagwan type...selfless but not too much ...a very good understanding man with responsibility and has his own respect for himself and rest of the people. I can't remember I've ever saw any character like him in any serial before. He is very very normal man. Which is really absent in serials.

With that Amaya is also not a very savitri type girl. She has a lot of problem...but she is trying to improve than act like silly. I love her possessiveness about Mantu, the way she stole that dress makes her look normal. That dress was made for her size, she had the chance to wear it and kismat gave that dress to her-------------why she will give that to Uma? I just looove the way she fought. 😆 Although she doesn't hate Uma. She has sympathy for her. But when it comes to Mantu---------she can show her true color. 😆😆Very very normal attitude .

But off course their slowly progressing love story is the main ingredient of this serial-------which is making this serial look like a mature one. I hope they keep it this way. Go slow. No need to rush or spend days on unrealistic ideas . Love usually happens this way. Between a normal guy and a normal girl. No one hates each other, nor turn violent/over dominant... or wants to take revenge etc. Just act normal. But still "Mahadev-Parvati" wala love ho jata hai. Good job by the CVs. 👏
