Cabir's secret is ALMOST out! I sooo wanted to do a touchdown dance but the precap just broke my heart! 😲 😭
*Blinks twice* *clears eyes* *stares at the screen again* Maanik WAS THAT REALLY YOU IN THE PRECAP!!! 😭 😭 😭
*Wrenches attention away from the precap and comes back to episode*.
Rose again dore daaloing on Dhruv. Another goner in a list of so many. 😆 Dhruv is lost in Nandu's la la land, Rose points out that he's 'blushing' (yeah dude, you gotta be careful around this one girl) and asks him if he's in 'LOVE' or he's blushing because she's sitting beside him.
Cabir literally drags her away and scolds her for flirting with Dhruv and everything else you heard in the precap.
Maanik actually overhears them (with a beer bottle in hands). Cabir sends Rose away, he tries justifying himself saying that he doesn't want to burden Fab 5 with his own love-life misery when so much's happening with every member. Maanik assures him that they'll accept anyone as they're not just a group but 'family'. (note that he says 'accept HER', poor thing ).
The way Cabir persisted that his secret WILL break this group got my brains ticking...a new possibility of Noyonika being the woman came in my mind (JUST HOPING IT'S UNTRUE).😕
Once again a scene executed to perfection with two equally BRILLIANT actors adding the icing to the cake! 👏 👏 👏
Nandini goes to Harshad to inform him that Navya has gone back to her hostel. Harshad's furious and says that he shouldn't have trusted her (another poor lad). Nandu asks him to talk to Navya, Harshad's skeptical. Nandu nearly blurts out about Navya's 'love' for him but restrains herself at the last moment and just says that his words affect her big time, so he should try. 😳(Haayee my angel 🤗).
The angel once again goes into a self-talk mode regarding the performance next day, can her 'Knight in shining Armani' be far behind? 😆
They both rest their hands against a tree, both their hands touch and they look at each other. Nandu announces to him in advance that she's too drained to fight with him, Maanik surprises by saying 'lets take a break'.
The angel asks her broken Knight as to what's bothering him and he ACTUALLY listens (once again). Maanik goes on about the kind of complications everyone in Fab 5 are having in their own lives. Nandini consoles him saying that 'its all a part of growing up' and everything will be back to normal once the phase's over (HOW I love this girl! ❤️).
Nandini turns to leave but Maanik once again grabs her hand and pulls her- with Nandu hurting her head when it hits hits the tree. Maanik comes to her rescue at ONCE...and this time without inhibition (courtesy Fab 5's absence). He rubs the back of her head and stops her from leaving saying that once the 'break's' over, she's gonna use his words against him. (Translation- I know you better than that, just wanted you to trust me with your woes).
Nandini shares her pessimism regarding the performance next day. Maanik gives her a much-needed jhatka in the form of a challenge and gets his 'Nandu' back in action! 😉
They all go home after this. A Nandu-Rishabh scene after AGES! 🤗 The behena shares the same thing with her bhai (after calling Navya repeatedly, with her not answering). The bhai shows her the pen and she gets all firefly wala glowing.
Harshad comes to Navya's hostel. Navya refuses to meet him. Harshad pleads to her to show up for the performance.
Next day- bets are on for who'll win. NH3 and Fab 5 ka aamna-saamna. Harshad-Maanik k wahi ghisi-piti lines. 🥱 Cabir's done to death jokes. Nandu showing false confidence of Navya's performing with them and Shahid goes on a dimbo mode!
Raghav sir comes and announces to them that NH3 will perform 2nd while Fab 5 will perform last.
Precap- Fab 5 are on the stage- minus Maanik. Raghav tells them that they'll be disqualified if Maanik doesn't show up!
Maanik- on the other hand sees Rishabh having another attack! He carries Rishabh to the...hospital? No idea! Once again the CV's putting a major twist after reading posts from here and executing it differently by replacing Nandini with Maanik!
P.S- SHUBHO MAHAPANCHAMI. 🤗
