as for your question, why nandini is not thinking of mouli and others? well, I am reminded of this old show where the main character (who was super annoying) goes on and on about her mindless problems. then the other person responds -- "do you think you are the only one with problems? take a look around. yours are so petty in comparison. why are your problems more important?" and the character responds "because they are mine."
and that pretty much explains nandini -- at this moment, her needs and her problems are her first priority. it is either her or others and she is choosing herself. she has been starved of affection for years and so is not completely rational.
lots of people get into ridiculously stupid relationships simply because they have no one at home to give them affection -- so they fall prey to notorious characters and then get into trouble. if you read the news stories of girls who were exploited and sold into sexual trafficking, many of these articles have a similar vein -- starved for affection, they fall for the first guy who came along and he turned out to be a villain...
the more interesting question is what will happen when nandini wakes up from this dream? at some point reality is going to hit for both kunal and nandini. then we will see how this love story falls out...
