I am sorry but I don't understand how Ashnoor's parents are allowing her to play a 23 year old, when she's just 15 🤔... like she's not even 18 yet, eeks. Though, I am not gonna be watching S2, I am so uncomfortable with the thought of her portraying a role of a young adult. There will be love and romantic angles and stuff, I don't know how her parents are letting her do this. I wish they would cast a new actor to play an adult Mini.
Hmm, it's tricky.
On one hand, it's completely her and their choice. If they want to carry on with it, then that's completely on them and they'll have to be ready to deal with the consequences of it.
On the other, Minnie will be 23. They will have to introduce a love track for her because that's the age that people generally start forming or at least seriously start thinking about their romantic relationships. If they don't show this, then what will they show for S2?
They didn't want to focus on the love life of a 30+ woman even though it would have been a VERY compelling story. They just neglected her desires and any issues that may have sprung as a result of intimacy was thrown away like it was nothing. Okay, we took it.
Are they really going to do the same for a woman in her early twenties? Are they going to put her romantic life aside, depsite knowing just how complicated her perspective on love is? If yes, then I don't know what they plan to show post leap.
(Also, if they give Minnie a love story despite claiming that the show isn't for a love story... then loll, we've all been made.)
