The purposeful isolation of fab5 , they are not confining in each other as yet, new experiences , in the midst of them all stands Mukti , they are all unaware of her relapse which was probably triggered because of Harshad's presence along with NH3. But that girl is breaking badly and I feel these separate hazy Fab5 will realize it pretty late of how long they have emotionally distanced each other. I seem them struggling, recoiling , the guilt piling.
Not just Mukti, Cabir is going to be a broken soul soon if the promos are to be believed. These two are so separate right now and I feel it's their break-down which will the turning point.
Manik has just now started to enjoy himself, letting go of his need to control, monitor Fab5. He is embracing his "new" , if fab5 cracks like Mukti or Cabir, he is sure to turn back to his old comfort , probably shunning Nandu in the process. Will be blame himself? I feel they are hyping out the light around Manik, just to take it all away in the most cruel way. And I kinda want to see that.
Dhruv again is in his own bubble, might not be in this episode but his story has to be a slow-simmer, simply because he has baby-steps and long paces to make as far as Nandu is concerned.
I don't trust Harshad. Something pissed him enough to target Fab5 . The look on Mukti when she was around Harshad then, is very starry , she had the Navya eyes. I don't know something makes me feel he might have initiated the whole deal to break fab5 and somewhere he did genuinely started liking Mukti. But Alya-Manik delivering the news to Mukti is significant too.
But the thing is I don't like Harshad around Navya because he knowingly did start to toy with her feelings to keep the group together and use them against fab5. The whole thing has a very Deja Vu vibe.
Manik-Nandu
It's a dream right? These two letting all go and being their usual age , messing around , having their own thing and just having a great time. Two individuals who have to act all grown up , responsible for people around them. It's just a separate nice space to just be themselves and not think much.
Manik likes stars, they gave him hope and they promise a light which he has never experienced. But Nandu is offering him that light- herself, his own firefly. Light of true love, trust and companionship.
The soft expression on his face showed how much he longed to hear that. Somebody to care for him 24/7 . He recognised the light in her. She is his star, firefly and everything. Will he fight the darkness to keep her shining in his life?
She is as he knows honest and innocent , the purity of her thoughts, the selfless promise to him undones him. It makes him feel of home, peace and just love. I feel with Dhruv while he has to be really careful and keep his guards up, not because of any other reason but because he feels as the Mother of that friendship. With Nandu he doesn't need to be Manik Malhotra, she rips it all off and just takes his broken self out and engulfs it in her never-ending care and love.
Chachi-Manik are the best . Bas. She is the coolest and he really likes her.
Nandu really does searches him na? She looked out for him from her window. He noticed.
The Prayer
Manik for some reasons doesn't seem himself to be fit for love, care and to be in someone's prayers. His complete distrust on his real self and it's acceptance makes him all lost.
Now can such individual ever hope for someone wishing for him so earnestly all the happiness of the world? The shock of being in her prayers , in her world, her person - spoke to his longing soul . She has made him , her loved one too. Being in that list gave him a sense of belonging ,family and everything. She kinda wished herself to him, because she is the source of all his happiness , the smile that he hides from world and himself, escaped him not once but many times . They are each others' person now. He is just Manik, the monster, saviour, vulnerable , scared-- she knows all his shades and still prays for him. the gesture was so innocent , pious and real. She included him. I don't know if he thought it through but this selfless love Nandu poured in that little moment probably tied his soul to her. He cannot let go of her. She is indeed the shine- those stars promised.
Can it be any beautiful and powerful than this. No wonder the fireflies glowed, True love, it is.
I think I get why fab5 are so spread , so in flashes right now. Because if we know the whole story right now , the impact of their explosion would be less severe. Not only them but us have to be shocked by what hits them. I am afraid for them, they are all so away, happy and in separate spaces. It's scary.
Mais, Annie I love this fandom🤗
