Nandini
Strong willed, smart and brave. You'd want her as your friend. Manik's girlfriend.....

Who she is- Keeping a hundred mile radius between her and the Fab 5.

How the world knows her- A down-to-earth girl who prefers to stick to her own devices. Unless you dare to insult one of her own in front of her, in which case, watch out for the fireworks.

How her friends know her- A closet romantic with a zest for life who feels deeply for the underdogs, being one of them herself.

Call her- if You’re being bullied and could do with a friend to stand up for you.

Do NOT call her if You’re a member of the Fab 5. Catering to rich, spoilt brats ranks somewhere above dining with a piranha on her to-do list.

Her mantra- Being a survivor which means never breaking down or backing down.
