Issue/Bug Description:
After an update in the pop shop on 2-8-2019(IST), I've not been able to boot into my pop-os - current for some reason. although when I go into pop_os-oldkernel ( as I upgraded from 18.04 to 19.04) it booted normally but that might be because it was running on intel graphics and not on my GPU.
Steps to reproduce (if you know):

Expected behavior:
The system is supposed to boot up

Other Notes:
Please check this video out for a demo of what i'm facing.

I pressed the end key instead of the down arrow key while inserting nomodset. If i typed nomodset after pressing down arrow till I reach the end then it boots but still with the ubuntu loading screen and patches of purple underneath.

P.S : I really didn't know where to post this issue so i'm posting here and in the nvidia-drivers section.
