I've always been drawn to characters that are more than just surface-level, and that's why I'm writing a Neeti-centric story. In many narratives, we see one friend elevated as the "perfect" figure, while the other is turned into the villain. This binary approach reduces complex characters into simple archetypes of "good" versus "bad." I believe Neeti's transformation, driven by insecurities, manipulation, and circumstances, offers a deep, human perspective that deserves to be explored. Neeti's arc in the original story felt more like a product of external manipulation than a natural progression of her character. While the focus shifted to making Pari the self-sacrificing heroine, Neeti's motivations and internal struggles were overshadowed. But what if we took a closer look at Neeti's perspective? What if, instead of framing her as the vamp, we acknowledge her pain, her vulnerabilities, and her feeling of betrayal? This isn't just a simple story of jealousy or revenge. It's a reflection on how someone who once had the best intentions can lose their way when overwhelmed by circumstances. Through this story, I want to shed light on the complexities of Neeti's character, the choices she made, and the emotional toll of being caught between love, friendship, and manipulation. Instead of viewing her as a mere obstacle, I want to explore her depth and humanity.
