Dr Mallika has so far remained distant. She has remained in a cocoon... safe and secure because she knows Dr A will view no woman from a romantic angle. She plays along with his moods. When he decides to end a meeting, she never disapproves ... she may give a parting shot but that's it. Perhaps she also knows that that is not the way to get around him. I hope she doesn't feel that one day Dr A will wake up and find himself in love with her. He is 42 and she is into her thirties. What hasn't clicked so far, may never click at all.
She has started resenting Nidhi because she (N) seems to get through to the Doc. Her haughty remark to the nurses that Dr A will never recall N was one evidence. On returning home, she finds her bro and his wife discussing her private life. She has not liked it since some truths were brought home. Then when she wants reassurance, she calls up Dr A only find to her horror that Nidhi is with him. Her face crumpling with despair was wonderfully acted out. She has not only realised that she has no sure future with him but that he may actually prefer someone else to her. She is really dejected because she has never really been of paramount importance to him. Maybe she has also finally realised that it is a one-sided love and that they were really not meant for each other.
I don't mind the grey shades the CVs give her but I hope they don't make a monster out of her. Let her remain refined and not become evil. Let them show her fighting for his love and not putting Nidhi down. I hope they don't make her want to ruin N's career in order to get into Dr A's good books.
Her asset is her ability to work like a clock and with great expertise. No one can replace her at the hospital. If she has confidence, she should give Nidhi a run for her money in that department. Setting the goals so high that N may never be able to match her. Let her play up her assets and go miles ahead. That will be tough competition for Nidhi. She can have both Dr A and N beholden to her.
I hope the CVs give her nuances and make Mallika a great character in the story. It's always interesting to see how a story unfolds with strong characters.
What do you guys think?
