Conphused...thanx to Manik Baba today!! He has my mind running in circles, trying to put a finger on the pulse!! The why... not letting me rest in peact..err I meant work in peace (MaNan are a bane affecting my work life anyways 😆)!!
Just cannot get over Manik's reaction to Nandini's sex talk. We all know the guy is no shy wall flower, he has had his encounters and was after all in a very long relationship since a young age. And we all also know that physically he is a very expressive guy. He has difficulties expressing himself in words, but is exceptionally talented with his hands and makes good and extensive use of them😉😉 (so much so that Nandu believes he is an octopus...too many hands to grab and grapple with 😃).
Manik is definitely not a prude, nor a moralist, nor a shy teenager...why?? Then why such a reaction from him?? It was unexpected for me, and try as I might I keep on thinking what prompted him to react in such a way??
Just exploring the various avenues here. Coming from Nandini I guess, it threw him off kilter. He does think that Nandini has very high moral values and is a simple middle class girl, so was this open conversation totally unexpected?? He had maybe set some parameters, had some preconceived notions about girls like Nandini, and she shook or actually broke them in a jiffy. Is that what bothered him??
Or was it that he was uncomfortable talking about his past intimacies with Nandini. May be he values his privacy or rather the woman he was with's privacy too much. Did he fear that she might not take his past easily, will not be able to accept or digest his physical relationships?? Did he think she would be judgemental?? Or did he fear falling from grace, losing her respect?? Simply didn't want to dig the past, as that can cast long shadows on his present and future with Nandini??
Nandini, he considers to be so special, that he was embarrassed or ashamed of his past indiscretions??
Does he think this was a private conversation and Nandini had picked the wrong place and time for it?? Thus, his reluctance...
Another possibility, talking physical with Nandini, unsettles the guy. Makes him lose some self control, making him think a lot about what he wants and is not getting. Affecting his restraint a bit too much 😆😉!!
Or is he essentially a shy sort, a bit embarrassed to discuss this with Nandu (ok it cant get any weirder...sorry!!)
Another possibility, he thinks he can handle this easily, so why is Nandu not trusting him with it and going though such a complex charade to resolve the matter on hand?? His belief that he is born to shoulder all troubles, while the ones near and dear to him should just rest in his shade!
Last but not the least, he does not want her broaching this taboo topic openly because he thinks she will have to face a lot of heat and ridicule for this. He wants to protect her from public out lash, doesn't want her opening herself to sick people and their comments or actions. He hates it if his girl becomes a target of open discussions or scandalous debates. He just does not want her going public with such a private issue, as he thinks it will stir a hornet's nest. She will be too vulnerable and he wont be able to protect her from one and all...is that what bothers him??
I have tried to think of this from all angles. This place is filled with some of the smartest minds I have lately seen (no kidding). I would love to read your views, thoughts or comments or responses. Just want some answers...

This is all a guess work.
But what I can assure is Manik is not judging or is being prude, neither he is ashamed of his past. Heck it played infront of Nandini , he himself was not embarrassed to dirty talk back in the day. Nah that is not him. But it still is his private matter and he will have no problems discussing with Nandu later. Actually they should, for a healthy relationship.

Yes he might have had some reservations discussing it right then because Nandu really did threw him off a bit by the suddenness of the question especially when they have been dancing about taking things slow.

That , also he doesn't think it will change anything or that the Princi can be convinced by this poll result. He is cynical like that and believes that only Noyonika's give and take system will solve the problem.

A part of him also doesn't want Nandini to unnecessary worry or be troubled by all the hassle as , he being the saviour likes to take all the problems on his shoulders.

Thnks for sharing your views..helps clear the picture a bit...about it being guess work...that's all we are doing here...guessing!! Hmm...makes sense..its a combination of various factors..isn't it??
I agree that he is pretty comfortable with his past and has no bones about it..that part was loud n clear. And that's one of the things I am looking forward to, a healthy discussion between them about this...one more reason why I respect the guy.
Now, that's a new one...his cynicism. His intrinsic belief that its all about give n take, and no matter can be resolved without paying a price. God...how Niyonika has messed with his insides and what a herculean task Nandini faces, trying to contain and correct the damage!
And of course, his savior or God syndrome...he does need to do it all naa...😆

is exceptionally talented with his hands
only hands, lips too, if given an option for me to pick his hands or lips, for me to experience, undoubtedly i will go with lips, and girl to be honest, by seeing the kiss cap on my fb newsfeeds, pulled me to this show and parth and i am now a die for parth girl 😆

n about having gotton physical with aliya, i still have my doubts, because it was not shown in the show or even talked, so we all guess being manik he should have, i just want to say he is still 19 years and 7 years back he would have been 19-7 😆

hey evie first of all, a big 🤗for making this post...Manik's reaction in fact was quite interesting, it was not expected.

Well Im pretty sure, he is not embarrassed or ashamed of his past indiscretions... In the initial episodes he made sure, Nandini knows the extent of relationship between him and Aliya.
then 2nd ly no i dont think he thought it was the wrong place and time for it ( he was trying to eat Nandini pretending to be a monster after all) ..and he absolutely is no shy wall flower..and he should not worry about nandini being vulnerable if she broach this subject because he will protect her from one and all.

I think,
He does think that Nandini has very high moral values and is a simple middle class girl, so was this open conversation totally unexpected?? He had maybe set some parameters, had some preconceived notions about girls like Nandini, and she shook or actually broke them in a jiffy. Is that what bothered him??

this is what bothered and unsettled him most.

then offcourse he was pissed because

he thinks he can handle this easily, so why is Nandu not trusting him with it and going though such a complex charade to resolve the matter on hand?? His belief that he is born to shoulder all troubles, while the ones near and dear to him should just rest in his shade!

I think his reaction was due to both these reasons...

thats what I think!!

Awesome post! You pretty much summarized all the things I was thinking and guessing after Manik's sudden disapproval..But yea I think we need to wait for tommorrows episode for answers!

This episode has definitely turned out to be very controversial though but besides that it is also such a big step in Manik Nandini's relationship because its about time they too talked openly about their opinions on this .. to be honest, from the very beginning when I started watching KYY, it seemed like a very liberal show and all this time, forget Navya's decision to have pre-marital sex, I thought Manik Nandini would eventually do it too because I think it some how just fit with Manik's personality?

And even Nandini never seemed like she was absolutely against the idea..Like when she said the whole friends thing and about the "knot" almost opening, she made it clear that she stopped him because they were "going too fast." Not because they were doing something wrong. Which means after a while, maybe after they get to know each other better, become an official couple, maybe Nandini won't have problems with pre-marital sex? At the same time, although she never judges others for it, she also doesn't drink, doesnt like hiding things from her Chachi, etc. So what exactly does she feel?

So ever since then I've been sooo curious to know what exactly is going on in these two minds when it comes to the dynamics of their relationship. Yea fine I'm sort of a prude and I prefer sex after marriage, but then if Manik Nandini decided to have it before, its not like I would berate them and stop watching the show since honestly its their choice! Honestly its just the curiosity of whether its gonna happen or not which is bothering me at the moment!

I know we all tend to idolize Manik and I also loovee him but I also always wondered what his beliefs are too..although I know for a fact that he would never do something that Nandini is even a little uncomfortable with, but I am curious as to how patient he can be ..Assuming that his relationship with Aliya was most likely an intimate one, is Manik the type who could wait it out for as long as it takes or would his patience eventually run out and sour their relationship? :/ Keeping in mind that they are 19 and say Nandini is against pre-marital sex, do you guys think Manik would have the patience to wait until they are probably around 24 to get married and then do it?
I am genuinely feeling so curious. All you Manik PHDs please help!
Sorry I went off on a tangent from your original brilliant post and just created more questions!

as monster Manik represented to us, manik is guy thinks only he can solve all d problems as he did it wid even cabir as well n nandini doesn't need to b worked up!
n secondly I strongly feel, he continuously being told to b slow about der own relationship coz nandini was not comfy in it! but now she wanna talk about sex publicly n it may create embarrassment for her as he wants to protect her!
I also think he got more irritated coz he initially thought d question was personally for him from nandini as she was curious! but later got to know dat it was for secret ballot!

Another brilliant post Eve 👏
He just does not want her going public with such a private issue, as he thinks it will stir a hornet's nest.


This above seems the most likely reason 😊 It would be interesting to see where this leads to and to know Manik's thoughts on this topic. Looking forward to a conversation between MaNan😊

He's not a prude but I think the suddenness of the question did throw him off...

What I found more telling was him saying, "You want me to tell you right NOW?"...after looking around to see if anyone was watching or listening...the fact that he looked around made it seem like he was conscious of discussing this topic in public.

So it seems like he might fall in the category of people who view this as a private matter and not something to be discussed publicly...and Nandu further stumped him by telling him that she was going to go around asking EVERYONE about this...lol...

Precap seems to indicate a Manik off-kilter with this crusade of Nandu's...lol...you know it's one thing for him to be obvious in his desire for her but dealing with her talking about this matter of factly with the whole world is probably unsettling for him.


And I said this elsewhere also...I feel like Manik represents that chunk of society that isn't prudish about doing it but is prudish DISCUSSING it...and that is actually how the majority of ppl think so they are showing a reality only...

awesome post
same things popped my mind too...
CV's always surprise us so can't read manik's mind...
he was shocked n surprised in front of nandu n angry too n in precap he was a bit embarrassed when cabir said that nandini is gng to talk openly abt sex... so i felt that he don't want his girl to talk on such topic openly who is very different from others bcz she myt face problems on.personal front
