Wow @monz122, I really enjoyed reading this!
I’ve actually never seen Devdas before or read the novel, but your post painted such a clear picture that I almost felt like I was watching the story unfold.

The way you broke down the characters, Dev, Paro, and Chandramukhi, really helped me understand the emotional weight of the story. I was especially touched by what you said about Chandramukhi’s selfless love and how Devdas held on to Paro’s memory till the end. It’s so sad, yet so beautiful.

One thing that stood out to me was Paro’s sacrifice. The fact that she got married just for the sake of her family, but stayed emotionally loyal to Dev, speaks volumes. It made me reflect on how deep love can be, even in silence and distance.

Also, I like how honest you were about preferring to watch the movie rather than read the novel. I can totally relate to that. Sometimes, seeing a story play out visually just sticks with you longer. Your description of the movie makes me want to go find it and watch it too!

Thanks for sharing this heartfelt entry. I learned something new today through your lens, and that’s the beauty of this challenge 🌺

Well done!
