Nithya Nandita

The most memorable serial ever made for Doordarshan. Thirty years later, its innocence still touches a chord. Unforgettable performances by a brilliant set of actors from South India. Boy, do I miss Shankar Nag. Why did he have to be snatched away from us, so soon? Indian TV & Cinema lost a brilliant actor and director. And, what a brilliant performance by the child artist Manjunath, who amazingly chose to quit the limelight and go into a completely different field. I can watch this serial again and again and again ... no other serial even comes closes to this!

Today, saw the transition episode - and frankly it is so convulated and not convincing at all. I just hope the serial does not start dipping from here!
