It seems as if he is from a single parent household, the parent being his mother. He shares and endearing rapport with his mother switching places with her often enough to be her caretaker. Perhaps this where he gets kindness and helping other girls/women come from. He is seen helping Nupur in the beginning of the college year not being a participant on the elaborate prank played by his classmates. His kindness towards others possibly stems from the close association with his mother. The level of interaction that one shares with their parents shapes them as they grow up. Like every parent she would have definitely taught the basic morals that one practices in the society but he must have experienced kindness shown by her first hand to imbibe in his own personality. The lesson that a single mother can teach to her young one would be based on the first hand experience that she has faced in her life. Perhaps this makes Mayank more sensitive as a human being.
Edited by -skylark- - 14 years agoHe also is quite mature for his age and more so when compared to his peers. Though intelligence plays a role, but it must be the environment in which he grew up which made him the boy, no, the man he is today. Everything in his life is planned out and every future activity has been clearly laid out in his mind. This makes his mother tickle immensely and she teases him even more. She asks him quite often to loosen up, to be just a guy and have a blast which makes him roll his eyes and change topic before he is teased even further. His beliefs lie in tangible evidence derived from logical reasoning and rationality. All his explanations, be it in an adrenaline filled situation or an emotional one he relies on logical explanation which his mind holds in greatest conviction. This makes people around him think that he is cold and calculative. It doesn't bother him when people dismiss him as a nerd who resides in library permanently. But it does bother him when members of the opposite sex throw glances and few times blatantly stare at him.
