NAndini's past is extrapolation, story never started from it. We assumed a lot, perhaps she was unconscious , her memories be repressed. Assumptions.
But girl has to suffer and break-down, call it whatever you want , this show never goes into technicalities - or Mukti's rehab , Cabir's hate crime would have become way serious. Lets give the cvs some credit , they do know what the general public wants. But lets not again make a caricature of Nandu's struggles by pulling a Soha where her life threat was ignored for Manik and MaNan's angst.
She needs TLC, rebooting of friendships with Dhruv, Navya, Cabir.
Let her have that sanity and lets hear out her fears for once. They obviously won't go for therapist or else this show would have been different. But play it off on Manik.
If they don't give her that break-down , then we shall forever be content with Supergirl nandu and blame it on her escapist tendencies which is there in each and every character.
For a show that keeps music in the background, college is in the name , I am sure they will never go technical with trauma , but since everyone had their break-down , Nandu deserves one for herself too. let her speak.
