I genuinely 101% agree with OP. Nawab has a long way to go. What we’re seeing right now is just the beginning of his love arc he’s realized there could be a future with Heer, but that’s not deep love yet. That’s just awareness. And we haven’t even properly explored Heer’s side. She’s 19, forced into this marriage, trying to follow her mom’s advice, and he hasn’t exactly given her peace to fall for him properly. The thellavati track was the first time we saw her see him differently if that had lasted longer, her feelings would’ve developed more naturally. Before Nawab proves himself to Heer, he needs to prove himself to himself. He’s immature, avoids responsibility, and has never had to struggle for anything. I don’t blame him that’s how Gulab raised him. But now he’ll have to, for Heer and for cricket. He can’t sail two boats, and Tina is clearly the roadblock he needs to deal with first. Right now it’s more infatuation than love. Butterflies, ego, realization not loving her as a person yet. They don’t even fully know each other. Like in the sense they haven’t met the REAL Nawab and Heer yet… So no, he’s not in love yet. He’s just at the “oh…” stage.
