Manik Alya breakup as expected, I did feel bad for Alya , she has based her whole life on them being together. I think Manik's disposition is telling with Alya today, he was very clinical about the breakup, he didn't display much emotion whereas with Dhruv and Nandu, he is extremely passionate and volatile.

I didn't get why Manik and Alya are not talking about their breakup to the rest of the Fab5, are Alya and Manik only defined by them seeing each other, they don't have a friendship to speak of, that even when the relationship isn't working,they can fall back on. Why is it so important to maintain the facade of them dating and that they don't even want to tell the rest of the Fab5.One more secret, which will eventually backfire.

Dhruv was trying to safeguard his relationship with Manik and thus wants to break off with Nandu as Nandu herself that she and Manik can't be friends. For Dhruv and Manik, right now their friendship is the most important. Everything else is just gravy, which is understandable, this has been established throughout the show, that this relationship is the strongest.

Manik, Nandu scene today, as expected Manik to soothe His wounded ego, reverts back to Monster Manik, but I think this Monster avatar is a little different, he went into try claiming a kiss from her, whether it was a conscious effort to scare her off or whether subconsciously all the close intimate moments of the past week has played a number on him.Nandu of course gets the last word, that someone will ale that difference, we all know who that is going to be . no second guessing there.

Mukti and Cabir share a real easy friendship, in the group of Fab5 Dhruv and Manik are really close and Mukti and Cabir are really close, Alya does seem to sharea close friendship with Mukti .

Manik and Dhruv are still dealing with the repercussions of realising that their friendship has seen some low points. Dhruv rightly concludes that the Alya Manik thing is a coverup, Manik does not forgive easily but Manik is in no mood to share. Dhruv mentions breaking off his friendship with Nandini and Manik's cultivated nonchalant look is finally shattered.

Navya seems very human when with Nandu and less of a caricature I feel that she is when she is with Harshad. nice to se her character opening up.

Dhruv and Nandu run across each other and share regretful glances without speaking. Nandu is looking divine by the way. Her stole flies pst Dhruv and lands on Manik, symbolism again there.I don't think Manik returns her scarf.she seems to be without it in th precap.

Raghav's punishment continues, Fab5 needs to play classical fusion, Nh3 Rock, is shahid a part of this group or not? Raghav have taken both groups out of their comfort zone. Nandu goes into the wolf's lair and. Manik trips her and Nandu bleeds and Manik's face goes pasty white.Looks like Manik wants Nandu's attention anyway he cn have it. I don't think either of the boys are going to stay away from Nandu,I just don't see it.


Like I've mentioned in my comment yesterday (on Mais' post), Maanik- it seemed- was looking for a good enough excuse to get away from Aalya once and for all since the storeroom incident. Aalya offered him the perfect getaway. Probably this was the reason that the breakup looked so clinical. 🤢

Good point there. Maanik's not realizing that he's doing what Aalya and Dhruv had done- hiding stuff from their friends. On top of that, he punishes her with the promise of secrecy. I do have a feeling that this will come out once Musicana is over. Dhruv would be able to guess before that, of course.

Remember my review titled 'Laws of friendship?' I CLEARLY REMEMBER asking the question as to whether or not Aalya-Maanik's 'friendship' will be able to survive an oncoming heartbreak? THIS is where the laws of friendship applies!

I want to see the likes of Mukti and Cabir playing a sitar! 😆

you know today's episode really made me feel bad and happy all at teh same time.

Manik and Aaliya break up was seriously the best thing...not coz I am a MaNan shipper😆but because they both need it. And sooner or later they will realise it...they both need to give each other this thing---A BREAK.

The Harshad Aaliya convo made sense. I can not make myself understand that what kind of horrid thing has Harshad actually done to Mukti.

But the whole thing of Aaliya saying that at least Fab5 are together...and that is what matters...made my day. PROUD of her.

And the whole MaNna scene...Manik so wants to kiss THOSE lips.😆 He is desperate...I am telling you he is.😳 I wish he would do it soon.🤗

The dupatta scene...lol...MaNnan can not even have a typical LLHH eye lock dupatta scene. Instead Manik makes that stupid face while removing that dupatta off his face.😆 That is MaNan...weird yet special.❤️

Aftermath all around .

Confused souls realizing the changes that have hit them . Actually I feel this is liberating for them , somewhere each one of them had their personality inhibited because of this need to be "fab5" and invincible. This led them cover up their inherent traits and emotions.

Alya and Manik. Actually I liked the way they handled and Krishnan was good . Thank God she didn't overplay it because somewhere on her face and with Manik's words one could get that they both have realized the finality of their equation. It was not about the secret as much about both of them acknowledging the difference that has seeped in. I feel somewhere Alya too realized that she was holding water in her palms and the tighter the hold, harder would be being with Manik. They thought they were each other's future but then at this time I feel they both deserve and expect different things from their partners. I guess Alya understood that so there was grief, sadness but understanding . They both would be pretending again , I think this is how Manik handles things- pretend . I want to see whether Aalya would give up on Maanik THIS soon. She may not repeat this sort of fiasco, but she will try her best for sure (or so I feel). Don't forget that these are a bunch of lost causes sticking together to look cool, I dunno whether I should expect this sort of maturity from Aalya.

Dhruv and Nandini
I get how he picked Manik's friendship over Nandini but then it's too late for that. As much as I appreciate and feel happy for him for realizing how his friendship with Manik was changing because of events surrounding Nandini , I feel this is a very big mistake. Because what he wants is status quo - which is never going to happen. Couldn't agree more.

But important point ,Nandini knows the thing she has with Manik is not going to end . She said its too deep ( ahem). You DO have a knack for attention to detail, don't you? 😉

Manik-Nandini
Again kudos for not bringing a 360 degree change in Manik. He would always fight till his last blood for that mask. He is scared with all the changes that are happening and he needs his aggression to numb his mind and prevent it from wandering to Nandu land.
There was difference in today's Monster Manik, he did it to make Nandu go away , testing her boundaries and trying to grab that initial equation that they both had . But But and But - not gonna happen, Lad.

Bravo for showing Nandu flinching at his touch , where at two previous situation she was lost and kinda had the atmosphere up , here she was clearly uncomfortable- in control but not in the moment. Good how "consent" is played here. Loved when she fired the parting shot. Nah this Nandu is going to kick his arse. KICK HIS ARSE AND HOW!!! ⭐️

Mukti- cabir moment was so real , genuine and soothing. Friendship shots . Shebir Rocks , though. Yaaayyy...I LOVE YOU FOR THIS! 🤗


Alya-Harshad scene was awesome. So beautiful, these two do care for each other but somewhere something has shaken all of them. I liked how Alya expressed how she did it for herself , I liked how the guilt played on her. I would ofcourse love her to apologize to Nandu but this realization is important. I feel this breakup opens up her character so well. Point. Apologizing to Nandu ain't coming any sooner. The fact that she regrets her actions is a good thing. 😊

Navya- Finally loved her . Veeba plays softness so well. But the advice she gave , Nandu that went so well for Manik. You never fight with Dhruv , you guys are always on the same page. But with Manik you fight, shout and yet somehow evolve. MaNan are like human Tom & Jerry- you see the similarity, the lambu, dumbo Tom and the chutkantu and chaalu Jerry! 🤣

Manik-Dhruv scene
So beautiful scene na. Manik is someone who goes into a shell once his trust/ego/faith is shattered. He is going to try being that lonely kid while still being friends with Dhruv. While the latter would be the driving force in this friendship now. This should be interesting. I liked how Manik's body-language changes when Dhruv mentions him breaking his friendship with Nandu. Will this not act like a green signal for Manik to act in whichever way he wants with Nandu? he is free of any chains- this should be interesting.

The scarf scene
Let the fun begins. But I like how Navya builds up Monster Manik with all the adjectives. Her calling him 'Lambu' CRACKED ME UP! 🤣

Precap
Juvenile stuff, but Monster Manik the change that is blinking like a neon scene says that you care when you see her troubled, hurt and sad. Predator becoming the ultimate prey.


Shelly, Mais - you girls are awesome.

Team Shebir though. *SIGH* ❤️

The news song, while I liked it but then the scenes were not that emotionally heavy.

This serial is so bloody mature for a mtv show. TRUE THAT! 👍🏼

Action packed episode as usual.
My heart went out to Alya. It sucks being the person who loves more in the relationship. I loved the Harshad/Alya bonding scene. As f***ed up as these two are, push comes to shove, they always have the others' back. The mystery surrounding Harshad's backstory is doing my head in lol.

Am I the only one that felt kinda uneasy with the MaNan scene today? I could've really done without the "being-in-a-room-alone-with-me-is-not-good-for-you" wala dialogue. Manik the D*** is back in all his glory and I guess that's what the story is telling us. Good on Nandu for flinching away from him.

Precap: More douche-baggery. I hope he repents the hell out of tripping her and apologizes and she flips him off and walks away. 😎


I have a thing for sibling bonding on-screen as I'm so close to my younger brother- there are NO secrets between us!

And there's something REALLY special I find in Harshad-Aalya bonding. The fact that these two are not whom you call 'nice, honest people' is perhaps the thing that really appeals to me. 😳

Maanik apologizing to Nandu- ain't counting on that! Guilt trip- yes I AM counting on THAT. 😉

And sooner or later they will realise it...they both need to give each other this thing---A BREAK. True that. The relationship was going NOWHERE. The insecure girl and the 'obsessed-with-someone-else' guy are not a potential combo!

The Harshad Aaliya convo made sense. I can not make myself understand that what kind of horrid thing has Harshad actually done to Mukti. Dunno whether it's Mukti or someone else. It must have happened during high-school. 😕

But the whole thing of Aaliya saying that at least Fab5 are together...and that is what matters...made my day. PROUD of her. YEEPPP

And the whole MaNna scene...Manik so wants to kiss THOSE lips.😆 He is desperate...I am telling you he is.😳 I wish he would do it soon.🤗 Ok, how about a make up kiss for putting a stupid foot forward? 😆

The dupatta scene...lol...MaNnan can not even have a typical LLHH eye lock dupatta scene. Instead Manik makes that stupid face while removing that dupatta off his face.😆 That is MaNan...weird yet special.❤️ The kharoos Majnu I tell you! 🤣

I don't have much to say.. you and others have said everything.. Maybe just this- since nandini has Manik's jacket.. he wants to keep her stole... Gosh this obsession of guys for keeping girls stuffs with them be it earing , payal and now stole.. LOL


If he had indeed kept her stole with himself, I'd say, stole is a pretty decent belonging to keep to himself. 🤣

(Er...cool logic, but remind me WHEN did he fight with you? 😕).
^^Exactly!😆

(ABE BEWAKOOF!! You're successfully giving him the 'licence to torture Nandu' again! 😡).
^^Again...ditto! She may be indirectly involved but to say that the problems started because of her was..umm I don't know😕

It was a good episode..
I did not feel bad for Alya. I guess I never felt connected with ALya & Manik as a couple. I never believed that a "relationship" starts in childhood. I don't like the '7 year long relationship' tag for the same reason. Anyway I'll talk about it some other time.. I still gotta finish off with the pending episodes..

I liked the step Dhruv took.. It was important for him.. He had no explanation about him hiding the truth from Manik that would convince Manik that he was important to him just the way Dhruv is to Manik.. I'm happy this way he at least proved that Manik matters to him more than anything.. Takes me back to the pool scene when Dhruv asks Manik 'kya wo ab bhi teri dushman hai?' to which Manik says 'haan' & Dhruv is like 'toh fir wo meri friend kaise hosakti hai'

But I do hope Dhruv & Nandu get back to being friends.. I like to see the jealous Manik😛

I always felt that Mukti-Cabir as friends are just like Dhruv-Manik.. I really love them together.

Manik asking Alya to keep their break-up a secret-I guess he's playing a risky game!

I felt Nandu had gone a little overboard with lecturing Manik again when he was sitting all alone trying to sort his mind..

I was confused at first if i liked the Monster Manik back but then I was convinced he can't be the same old Manik anymore!

The dupatta scene had some editing problem..it looked better in the 'coming up' clip.
Anyway..it was some out of the blue scene.. but going by ur guess I'm convinced now that Manik won't give her dupatta back🤔 probably😕 He'd walk away with it showing his "Monstrous" attitude for her to believe & she would..when WE KNOW he'd keep it with him for different reasons.. though didn't see the dupatta in the precap🤔
I don't think Manik will go all out showing his concern for the bleeding Nandu.. or if he does & she retorts back bitterly then that would only encourage him more to keep the monster in him alive..

I think Manik was clinical with both Dhruv and Alya. Thats how he operates, once that blinding faith is shaken , he retreats back to his shell. Probably after than store room thing or even before that he has sensed that he craves for something more than what he had resigned to expect from his life. I feel he realized that his relationship and future was build on a habit and need for being together for fab5.
But what was more telling for me was how Alya took it, there was lot of resignation. Probably she saw a lost battle or since she had seen it coming for days made it seem so cold. I think cvs played it smart and kept the relationship dynamics unknown to us , even though they have been together since 7th grade , they could sell their differences as a habit. Teenage love.

When I compared this with how he cold-shouldered Dhruv, twice, I see a pattern. it becomes more telling of his character and behavior. Dhruv was desperate hence him giving up his friendship with Nandu, probably he senses that getting the "normal" back with this Manik is difficult.

With Alya it does seem a cop out and to some extent it is but I do feel it has more to do with his instinctive reactions and his inability to forgive than anything else.

This time, it will matter to Manik that her forehead is bleeding but he won't show it to Nandu nor his FAB 5. He will act all tough and monstery infront of them. He will be sad about it afterwards and it will affect him.
I will eat my hat if he actually dresses it for her. 😆
