I am kind of still in shock - did that all just happen in one episode! Manik and Cabir, I hate you both. You are ruining my life with all this heavy angst.
For once, I just want to kiss Nyonnica - I don't know how much of it was to protect Raghav as a friend, Cabir as her son's friend and the drummer of the band which is the ultimate jewel of her collage or she will be cashing it out later from Manik. Everything is give and take for her as she said. But whatever, you are an awesome Lady.
Manik started bleeding when he fell, but he didn't fall the whole way did he? - Still he performed, performed like a true showman. They all were awesome ... simply awesome! Their performances feel like It for any festival, any show. They are the show stoppers and always will be.
I thought that Dhruv was the singer beside Manik? It's Cabir? Or they just do it as it seems fir to them according to the songs? I don't know how THAT could not have been the winner performance. All of them were awesome - except Alya - I didn't notice her much.
They all were FEELING the song, especially Manik and Cabir. Like they were putting out their despair, frustration, anger and sadness in the form of the song. It was so powerful and emotional. See, Manik was NOT unaffected - he was affected big time and it showed in his angry tears and glares he was laying it upon the audience, the world - cruel, DUMB world.
Oooh, the blood play - out of context, it looked sexy. Nandu falling on him, He touching her face and putting his blood on her cheeks and she practically rubbed his blood all over her hands and face and arms. How would you describe the look on Manik's face when Nandu touches his injury? Bliss?Pain? momentary satisfaction?
Now, Harshad - The moment Fab5 won - They were so nervous, and for once looked free of their ALL problems and worries and just like teenagers standing there hoping they will be the winners. The ONLY WORRY in the world, are we winning it or not? And then all of them smiled and laughed and rejoiced when they were announced the winners. The need to be close to each other and the group hug. Manik actually beamed. Cabir actually laughed. It was all real, seemed real after such a long time of forced shit. And when Manik had the trophy in his hands. I felt that it was well deserved, truly well deserved. Because as a showman, a performer - He killed it. He nailed it.
So did Cabir. These two, I am a liar, I lied. - I just love them so damn much, right now and all the time and forever. My self-proclaimed bad boys with their heart in the right place and ever ready to destroy themselves for each other. All of them are just so damn prepared to DESTROY THEMSELVES IN EVERYWAY for the gang.
Cabir's fear of his future and his friends reaction, the whole world's reaction, his determination to NOT be held down by a sick psycho like Harshad - to not let the bloody b***** drag him down due to that same fear, to not let him pull him away from the people he loves, to not let him leave their sides. And channeling all that, his love, his fear, his helplessness in his performance was his unique brand his f**k You to the world and to Harshad who ACTUALLY thought for a minute that Cabir would leave his people because of the coward's game Harshad played with him. He is a Winner. He deserved that Trophy. That Trophy that he won - it is a symbol of him staying true to himself and his people, a symbol of his sacrifice for them, of him putting them before himelf, a symbol of his affection for them and him overcoming the dilemma of saving himself from the world or staying with the people who form his world. And, definitely a tribute to the person he is in love with.
Raghav is not angry with Cabir, Raghav is not upset and panicking over someone who has found out his truth and knows that he is with Cabir - staying true to his words, Jo hoga so dekha jayega. Now, he only wished to see Musicana be won by Fab5 and Cabir. The happiness on his face, even though he is scared for his life, for his future and has already resigned, and is no longer a teacher to them? I like Raghav. He is a good guy, no doubt on that.
Manik, he is in pain. He is in so much pain - emotional pain, physical pain and still he is there on the stage not giving up. His hands are bleeding, his heart is bleeding. The girl who trusted him, the girl whose heart he broke, broke his heart too. She broke his heart more than it already was broken by believing him, by believing his lie. He cannot believe that she could believe him and his act. Do I care that he brought it upon himself? No, I still hurt for him. But This Musicana - before all this shitstorm started, this is what Fab5 lived for - their music. Music and friendship is what defines Manik Malhotra in so many important ways. He would leave that because a Coward', a selfish downright cruel coward like Harshad would stoop as low as to try and injure his opponent right during the performance? IN YOUR DREAMS, YOU COWARD. Manik is a winner. The trophy was well deserved. It looked perfect in his hands.
These boys, this true showmen, true performers and artists, they deserve a dedication and what better than The Show Must Go On' and We Are The Champions' by the rock band royalty Queen.
Another Hero, Another Mindless Crime
Behind The Curtains, In the Pantomime
Hold The Line
Does Anybody Know What We Are Leaving For?
The Show Must Go On ... The Show Must Go On Inside My Heart Is Breaking, My Makeup Maybe Flaking But My Smile ... Still Stays On.'
Harshad has no, absolutely no more excuses to even try and show himself as a good boy turned Publics Hero against the tyranny of Fab5 AFTER HE WAS VICTAMISED'. All his positive points, if they were ever true at all, are completely submerged in his lies and hatred and now he is just another villain. He is a liar, a cheater, a coward and selfish and he would never accept these things, would lie to innocent people like Nandini and Navya whenever possible. So he can use them - demand things in return for all the favors he did them. Because he has his image which will be ruined if he accepted to the world these things in a way Fab5 could never be. They never attacked their enemies' from behind - Never. It was always upfront and in your face to be dealt with or to be ignored. I am just so damn happy, elated that Harshad got what he deserves. FAILURE with capital letters.
The entire band just standing like a shield around Manik when he fell? Was adorable and Cabir was giving some major scary face' to the audience.
In fact, there were some awesome scary faces by the people --- Nandu trying to make a hard face and stare Manik down when she says all the best to him. And when she was going down the stairs, she tried again. She is just too adorable for the Scary Faces'.
Manik gave quite a scary face when he looked up after the fall, bang on Scary Face'. How dare the world think he will be brought down by a stupid fall? His face when he was singing and looked like a dead person with tears leaking out of his eyes - It was devastating and scary to me.
And then things went to shit and Harshad wanted to watch a video ---- How things just went from high to low, low so low and lower. I do not know how to explain it in words --- How? Why? Why Harshad?
This guy who walked around proud because he was so much better than these 5 monsters, who was caring and sensitive and understanding? It was all just an act, wasn't it? You are no different. In fact worse. Nayonnica put everything perfectly in words, I could not describe it better. How is public showing of a private moment between to consenting people funny?
What was so damn Funny Shahid? Yeah, I felt bad for you for liking a girl like Mukti who has been on pills before and tried to end her life and is depressed, cheated on and broken. I feel bad that your nudes were all over the collage for making the mistake of liking Mukti and proposing her on facebook or some shit. But, now that you have got your revenge, laughed and mocked two people for being in love and expressing it. Now, that you are EVEN. And proved that you are not any better than these 5 people as you find laughter and glee in other people's misery too, either it be Navya, a friend or Cabir. You can go and be damned.
And Navya? She was so shocked - but when Shahid said those things, I could see the disapproval, the almost sadness in her expression.
Why Harshad? Feel scolded and scorned after your Mrs. N didn't find your pathetic moves funny? Did you see his face? He was like, is she serious? And are these people really just going to listen to her and forget what they just saw?
And that Curly haired launda who was laughing and talking back at Nayonnica --- Did you see the look on Cabir's face when he was making a dig at him and R? Yeah, another perfect Scary Face' right there. You better start praying to the almighty and watch every step you take in S.P.A.C.E, curly haired boy. Your days are numbered in many ways. Either Manik will get you and you disappear quietly into the night, or Mukti castrates you. If you are unfortunate, you deal with Cabir with a C.
Alya, Dhruv, Mukti - Shocked! Bewildered and utterly shocked.
But then the world dares to stand against one of them, dares to look down on one of them due to some f*cked up sense of superiority. We DEMAND that Cabir be expelled - because he is gay and will infect us. Oh, they are Gay, expel them - Didn't you hear us, they are gay. Reason enough, right there.
Unknowingly, they are just making Fab5 stronger and bringing hell upon themselves. Because they thrive on it, thrive on the opposition against them; thrive on being rebellious and in your face. After such a long time, Mukti looked fierce. Putting aside their own shock, shock of having it all out in the open by being forced, shock of a friend hiding such a part of who he is from them. When those people were saying hurt and frankly, nonsensical and downright narrow minded stuff), Cabir still had the guts to look up and stare into the crowd taunting him, why? Because Manik was standing right beside him with his arms around him, protecting him - looking into his eyes and still giving him this reassuring looks - Mukti was right there with her hands on his shoulder, I could feel the support, the protectiveness in her touch, so on her guard, her own awesome Scary Face' on.
Manik's own Scary Face' was done to perfection. The way Monster strutted towards the stage to just jump off and batter the faces of the chinky and chintu blabbering about demands and culture and how Cabir had to physically drag him back. Like, no you can't murder them Manik. No mass murders today, please. We will do it in our own time, planning it all quietly and thoroughly and will make it more painful.
In private, when they are alone, Mukti will express her shock, her anger at being not trusted enough, at being made to feel like a shitty friend for not being with Cabir through all this - By slapping him quite awesomely -- but on the stage, her hands were just for support and protection and other violent stuff for almost everyone standing in front of her, making Cabir feel like shit.
Nayonnica put it all out so eloquently. S.P.A.C.E. promotes equality and supports L.G.B.T. rights. Everyone is beautiful in their difference. It makes them who they are. Love between two people is their business, not of the whole world. If it does not affect you, then you have no right to make decisions and pretentious judgment.
Remember, How Cabir said that his secret might break them --- I think it is quite the opposite, actually. His secret out in the open is what is going to bring them all back together. There, all of them opening up - letting it all out - all the secrets they didn't want to burden each other with. Please, PLEASE MANIK.Just let it out and make me proud. One moment of honesty for your people is all I ask. PLEASE. This will be a deciding moment for the future of Fab5. Will Manik trust his people in this moment when they all have chosen to let it all go in front of each other?
For once, I just want to kiss Nyonnica - I don't know how much of it was to protect Raghav as a friend, Cabir as her son's friend and the drummer of the band which is the ultimate jewel of her collage or she will be cashing it out later from Manik.
