Walk in the clouds' The title itself speaks of serenity & beauty. You did justice to it in the whole update. The music selection was bang on' It reflected the whole feel & soul of the part. I must say the music that you add in each part is so apt & all of them just make it to my playlist. Khamoshiyan jo inke darmiyan thi who gungunane lagi'. Itni madhur bangayi ki ek muskhurahat ne saari tanhayee mita di'

It is worth all my work to read reviews such as yours. I do sweat out the details including the title names so the fact that you noticed it made me happy. I was having a tough time with the music for this one because I am trying to use old songs for Maan's character and none of the old ones fit him, so I had to pick a background score that would reflect the situation. Luckily I had seen this VM and so it fell into place.

Kabir'. Hmm new character, Very interesting! I would not want to typecast him now' and just view him as someone who has had wrongly perceived people through his own lens of insecurities. He feels grass is greener on the other side '. Just as defence mechanism to safeguard self from accepting his own complexity he faces day in & out.

I think in most instances, circumstances cause people to act like villains and by having a villain someone gets a chance to be a hero.. 😉

Dear Diary opening innings was during this trip'😊. He is so apprehensive & unsure that he doesn't mention her name.

He does not want to taint her name or cause her any badnami should the diary fall into the wrong hands. That is his chilvalrous nature.

I liked the way he started writing it, he actually spoke to it as a friend would' as that's what a personal diary is. He misses his Mom so compensates it with this diary writing speaking his heart out here. He notices minute details.. And makes it a point to be aware of her likes & dislikes under guise of accompanying the group.

The fact that he does not have an outlet to voice or discuss his issues is a big factor in the way he is and his insecurities regarding her. He can grow in the corporate world but he will still be the hesitant lover who will not respond unless she is gives him a sign. I think that is the way a gentleman should conduct himself and am trying to make him like that.

Geet's order of the sandwich' spicy with crust cut out & diagonally half one, speaks a lot of her nature & traits.👏

This part made me adore Maan for various reasons. I know he behaved like a khotta by assuming stuff' but then he was blinded by his own fear of rejection, insecurity & apprehension of being misjudged as he doesn't open up much to others so whether she will understand him as his mom used to. What made me like him so much were'- his want for Geet & him to become someone in future like his parents' That shows his purity of thoughts & also depth of his feelings. Also how in spite of all that he misinterpreted & was angered yet he didn't leave her alone to face her battles, he was there for her whenever needed. 'Main tumhare saath hu.. daren ki zarrorat nahi..' he distracting her & diverting her fearful thoughts by stating facts of the place. He saving her form those drunk boys' & also promising self of never to drink just because she couldn't bear the smell' speaks a lot about this man' can I have him for me '. Clone bhi chalega'😳😳

I think the essence of the character is here. No matter how immature he is and insecure he would be there for her. This one right washes out a lot of wrongs as I see it.

Also loved the subtle intimacy on the cable ride & also while sightseeing ' all of which perceived & experienced through high on alert senses.😉

His regret on knowing his misinterpretation of her expressions & then later fear of losing her by his deeds of misjudgement was all overshadowed & washed away by her that one shy smile' Beautiful!!

The promise of walking on the same path makes an appearance again' I liked that he has made this advice one in his conscious but then tends to forget it but then still works on it.

Continue when you can' Special thanks for updating even when it's such a hectic time for you with work, family & all of us behind you for updates' Thanks so much for such beautiful part' 🤗🤗🤗
