Today's hug was a significant step in Manan relation. Manik who never trusted anybody other than FAB 5 gave in completely to Nandini. The same Nandini who once he considered a nobody has become the person he trusts to show his vulnerable side.
A lot has been discussed wonderfully on this topic so I won't mull on it anymore but what I wanted to do was go into the past and recollect Nandini's journey from Mangalore till date. Hope you guys njoy it..š

Day 7 - Nandini and Manik share their first kiss though it is an Accidental KISS š³
Day 8 - Nandini ignores Manik who lands up at her place and they end up discussing about Rishabh and Dhruv. Manik later reluctantly frees Nandini from being his spot due to pressure from Alya and others.

Day 12 - Nandini and Dhruv are friends again as Manik gives his consent to Dhruv. She gets trapped with Manik in the storeroom. The ISHQ Bulawa scenes begin.š³
Day 13 - Nandini is rescued from falling into a ravine by Manik and both are confused w.r.t their feelings.
Day 14 - Nandini and others discover that Alya sent goons. Manik is upset and so Dhruv breaks his friendship with her. Manik's proximity confuses her. The near KISS countdown begins with 3 unsuccessful results for Manik in a day.š³
Day 15 - She gets hurt by "Monster" Manik who by now has officially become her secret admirer/deewana / majnu. Manik discovers that Cabir is hiding a secret and shares a heart to heart discussion with his dear Nandu.š
Day 16 - Intra-Collegiate festival, she comes face-to-face with a doting Manik š³ who saves Rishabh but loses competition. She goes to his place to say THANK-you but ends up having a shower with him and sleeping under his cot. Manik's near KISS countdown continues with 2 unsuccessful attempts.š
Day 17 -
Nandini for the first time runs after Manik and they decide to work together for the sake of Rishabh and Dhruv.š
Nandini FINALLY realises that Manik is physically attracted to her. She knew that Manik cares for her and is not the monster that he portrays in front of everyone. She wants him to change but she never knew that he also had strong feelings for her and that realisation makes her uncomfortable about her own feelings for him. š³
Cabirs secret is out and Manik is disturbed.
Manik and Nandini share the most amazing HUG. NO words exchanged just emotions.š³
It has been a really eventful 17 days for Nandini, who never imagined that she would be the onus for change in so many lives, especially Manik. And Manik who never imagined that one day there would be someone in his life whom he would trust more than himself found Nandini.
Their journey has just begun...š
