I had no other idea for a title...SERIOUSLY!
Maanik Malhotra...you sweetie-pie! Who is an 'emotional fool' NOW? 😆
Nandu's turn to DEMAND for a smile from her (so-called) Monster now! 😳
HOW I LOVVVEEE THESE TWO!!
Episode starts with Maanik and Aalya coming downstairs together to greet the others. Mukti teases them for coming down so quickly. Maanik is physically present amongst them but mind's still stuck on his bedroom and its present occupant. 😉 😆
They all start drinking, Mukti places a bet that if Dhruv comes here too, they're gonna win Musicana. Cabir contradicts her 'superstition' by saying they're gonna win any way. Maanik just plays along.
He makes an excuse to get his phone from his bedroom. Mukti again comments as to how he's missing his bedroom too much tonight. 😆 Is anyone else missing Rose's foot-in-mouth-ness? I know I am. I nearly imagined her asking Maanik if he have hidden 'some other girl' in his room! 😆
Cabir says that Dhruv should arrive within the next five minutes in order for Mukti to win her stupid bet.
Maanik goes to his room to see Nandini searching for something 'proper' to wear while going outside. He hands her a pair of track pants. She comes out wearing them and I'm STILL wondering how they fit her! Did they somehow magically shrink by sensing a smaller wearer? 😕 Ki farak paenda hai! Maanik checks her out, anyway.
She is ready to leave but he stops her and wraps her face in some cloth! ISSE KEHTE HAIN Maanik Malhotra ka 'sasta, sundar aur tikaw logic'! 🤣 What was the need, really? In case anyone would've seen her, they both would be in trouble with or without her showing her face! And if he wanted to bhagaofy her when no one was watching, then what's the point of covering her face?
He orders her to stand outside the room and wait for his signal. He comes downstairs, keeps looking at her direction then signals her to get inside. Dhruv arrives, Mukti is super happy. Nandini has gone inside. Maanik panics...AGAIN.
Panicked Maanik was sooo funny to watch! 'Dhruv BHI aa gaya' EPIC! 🤣 🤣
Everyone starts downing shot after shot (especially Mukti and Cabir). They all start dancing to 'Saturday Saturday' (koi aur gaana nahi hai kya inke paas?). Maanik looks like a 'abla mard' amid all of them! 😆
Both Mukti and Cabir have passed out. Thankfully, Dhruv and Aalya are still sober enough. Maanik lets the former two stay where they were and all but shoos away the latter two to check on his angel. 😆
Harshad watches a video of NH3's win and talks about 'BIG PLANS' that he has against the Fab 5. He says that he'll make sure that none of them will be able to pick up an instrument! He pauses on Navya's reaction and says that luck wont be with him every time, so he'll use some other technique! 😕
Maanik searches for Nandini throughout his room after receiving her text that she's still in there but couldn't find her. He calls her and hears the phone vibrating from somewhere on the floor. He bends down to see the sleeping beauty sleeping not-so-peacefully underneath his bed! *Niti...Y U SOOO BEAUTIFUL???*
What Maanik could have done- wake her up and send her home. What he ACTUALLY did- called her 'DUMB' at first (like always), then went on to play the majnu that he have become off lately and covers her with his blanket as she was shivering. 🤗
He proceeds to crash on his bed. The clock strikes 1:30, Nandu gets up and sees herself covered with the blanket. She comes out of the place and places the blanket on Maanik himself and I think I DIED of CUTENESS OVERLOAD!
She talks to him while he's asleep and wonders as to why he's so hell-bent on maintaining his 'Monter' image. She leaves after changing into her own clothes, gets a call from her chachi and lies about being dropped home. She wonders as to how she's gonna make it home now when a driver asks her whether he should take out the car for her. At first she thinks he's misunderstood her for Mukti but he confirms that it is for her as Maanik ordered him to drop 'Nandini' home. She smiles to herself before leaving. (Another goner in line? What say? 😉)
Next morning, Maanik wakes up to find himself wrapped in the very blanket. He checks underneath his bed for his angel, first thing (haven't we always checked for 'Monsters' underneath our bed at nighttime since childhood?). He finds a note there which says that his 'secret is safe with her of Monster not being a Monster'. He again calls her dumb for writing notes in the zamaana of mobile phones and throws it away. But the hot n cold majnu that he is again goes to pick it up off the floor and goes into an fb mode of the night that went by. He decides that he should 'stay away from her' (Yeah dude, I've heard that one before). At first he asks HER to stay away from him (without avail) and now he's ordering himself to do the same (this too will be without avail!). 😆
MaNan swap roles of going after the other and it's Nandini's turn to sing 'tera peecha na main chhodungi soneya'. 😆
She goes on and on about all his good deeds. Maanik snaps at her, she says that he never saw HIM smiling for HER, he says he doesn't like smiling. She cutely blackmails him to be nice to her as she knows his secret. He does what he does the best push her towards a wall and threaten her with the same ol 'Fab 5' 🥱.
The chaalu billi counter-attacks him by saying that she's no more afraid of them, she keeps blabbering when Maanik tried shushing her but puts his finger INSIDE HER MOUTH instead of over her lips. (Am I the only one who got all sorts of 'Tharki khayalaat' amid the cuteness with this scene? 😈)
He gets his finger bitten. 😆 She tries leaving after an unsuccessful attempt to soothe his pain but her bag gets stuck near the window and in another attempt to take it out, everything inside tumbles out!
Both of them start picking things up when Maanik's attention is caught with Rishabh's file. He asks her if he's ok and she says that the psychiatrist are unable to cure him so they should rethink of their decision to work together for both Dhruv and Rishabh! 👏
Precap- LOVE IS IN THE AIR...everyone falling left, right and center! 😆
