Devanagari handwriting?

Since learning the Devanagari abugida, I've been
curious as to how it's handwritten in everyday usage.
The script is _very_ difficult to write out as it is
printed, especially on account of the top bar. Do the
users of this alphabet just grin and bear it, or do
they have some form that they use in informal
day-to-day communication?
