_______________________________Hola my girl..well Monday is finally here. Today's episode was a good set up episode for the rest of the week. The jealously has apparently kick started. And may god save Manik and the viewers...i am so ready :P
I gotta admit, the mind had a strong finish today not that the heart wasn't there putting a strong fight as well but let us explore today's scenes.I absolutely loved how Manan came to the same place: their meeting place, their staircase for solitude It's their place of memories, of their budding love, a place of happier times. In past when they were coming together, they met on the same side of the staircase. Today they met with on opposite sides, with the railing in between. While they are walking separately, there are still so strongly bonded. Their bodies still touch through the barrier of the railing. Very soon, they will be once again of the same side of the staircase.
He claims he can't live with her but makes a bigger declaration: He can't live without her. This is the biggest truth of his life, it even trumps his love realisation. because love may change, we can learn not to love someone but the need for a person to survive, that's lifelong. He can't live without her: the heart contradicts his mind that so confidently says: I can't live you claims Manik Maltorta, so he doesn't need his light to survive. Oh the struggle is so real. The way he clenches his fists, it's not in anger. It's in constraint because he is dying to touch her, to pull her into his arms..to give his damn heart some much neededrelief. The tug of Nandini's arms, the pull. the push he does so often nowadays speaks of his struggle. He needs her close but he can't, he can't let her close because they are at battle now. His hatred and her hope. Oh my hopeless babies. I already said that there is no hate. There is no hate for Manik baba. Hate is such a strong emotion and because there is a fine line between love and hate, I believe you can only feel one or other at a time.. and honestly it's so hard to come back from hate. To relearn to love someone after you hate them: doesn't happen often in life and that's the truth. he is only capable of feeling love for this girl. She is his shining star after all. she is still fighting the darkness for him. She is still fighting for that smile of his she loves.
And even today, he guides her. Music is his reason for smiling. Nope Manik, nandini is your reason for smiling but no worries, i let you get away with this one. Music soothes him, heals him and when does Manik make his best music ? Well, he does it with his lucky charm. Like you had said in a post: she is the lyrics to his music. There is hope if there are able to sing together after 10 days. Well good job boy, give your girl all you can. Tell her to fight to be his music again.
Another very significant scene for me today was Manik simply telling Fab 4 that he is going solo to perform with Nandu for the fusion concert. Once again, Nandini takes priority over Fab 5. Manik is done playing mother hen to these 4. While he will still be there when they need him, he has other priorities, along the lines of making a certain someone 'suffer'. It's sad how his friends believe that he will mess with his music just to mess with Nandini. Manik respects his music far too much to use it a weapon in their battle. Mukti says: isn't he taking it too far with Nandini ? and he replies honestly: He is gone too far with Nandini. Truer words have never been spoken. Yes, he is gone too far, too far in love with her to ever walk away ( please note, even today Nandu walks away both times. I told you, my MM doesn't do the walking away in their relationship..lol) Only my Cabs knows the magnitude of their love and he is always freaking honest. Love this statement: if Nandini is around, Manik is bound to be close..lol.
Oh oh..i almost forgot to talk about face value scene. Manik is forever helping his girl, no, not by giving her water but teaching her another lesson. He knows she is still innocent, still too naive so he decides to teach her a lesson and get some payback ( yeah, he still remembers that she cut his guitar strap) Manik says don't take everything at face value, don't believe everything someone says. He is referringto their earlier conversations.A part of him is hurt that she still trusts him so that she believes that he means it when he says he will make her suffer.( just like at musicana time: he asked himself: How could she just believe me ? How could she believe that he meant to hurt her ?) He has mocking,sarcastic way of himself where he coats the turth as underlayer and tends to be sarcastic most of the time just like he sarcastically mocks her and her hope near the end of the episode. nandini is only human too, while she uses sees through him most of the time, past his smug, badass persona; once a while she doesn't read him as well. But the water prank is gonna come back to haunt him when someone else catches his girl. He promised once: I will always catch you when you fall and now he won't. Let that burn a little Manik, it's meant to.
I also quite like the budding friendship between Mukti and Navs. friendship equations are changing and i am glad Fab 5 are finding friendship outside their group. New people, new friendships, they expand our horizons, give us new perception. So Navya is good support for Mukti's character and plus Abhi has brought a huge change in her life. Life suddenly becomes much more clear when you are falling in love with a person who is on limited time ( imagine that: limited time to love someone, so utterly devasting) and i am still baffled at her immaturity tounderstand Manan's love for each other but i got hope for the girl. It's Alya i have no hope for..lol.
Okies, i think i am done. Awesomely written as always my love. You the star :D
Edited: wait wait, hold the reply train please ! even thou you aren't replying yet..lol. Reya forgot her beautiful moment. I always have one. Will guess mine ? It's when he tells; " i can't live without you !" how he tries so desperately but he can't stay away from her. Oh all that love laced with pain,frustrationand agony. Every mask he ever wore shed when he made thatdeclaration. Such love, such beauty.
Love as always,
Reya aka Sunny <3
That staircase scene was a purely Manan's time to spend quality time together and for that reason I guess I spent the most time analysing it lol. Because when Manik's face and eyes start doing more talking than his lips, we know his heart has overtaken the mind completely. I just seem to never get enough of the restless mood of his when he is trying very hard to restrain himself from pulling her into him. That fight seems so much more real, so much more believable and I absolutely lose track of myself in those moments.I That scene was just awe-worthy when he realises that there is a railing between them and he doesn't know how to get rid of it. He wanted to just push it out of the way or rip it out of the ground so nothing could stop him from feeling her against him, He wanted to run down the stairs and run back up on the other side where she was standing but he didn't have that much patience so he just tugged her right there, at that moment, pretending that no railing existed there at all.
Manik's revelation to the fab 4 about the fusion concert was a rather pleasant surprise. For a second you could see the hesitation in his voice, the guilt of leaving his family behind. But this change I feel was necessary. It's about time my Manik thinks for himself. Thinks about his happiness, thinks about his sorrows, thinks about his life. He has only sacrificed time after time and my heart still weeps for him at times. He didn't deserve the dark and misery-filled life he's lived all his life. He didn't deserve to have to mask his pain behind his "monster Manik" persona just because he had no one to share his pain with. But not anymore! Now it's his time to sing for himself, live for himself an love for himself. At the same time I really hope this fusion concert doesn't take a transitional turn onto the road of Fab5 separation. No matter how they all me be individually and despite how their negativities and positivities as an individual, I've always admired the bond that Fab 5 have shared.they found solace in each other's presence, they discovered a family in each other's affection and care. So as much as I want Manik and Nandini to tread on their music journey together, I don't want having to see Fab 5 break. Because we all know it, my Manik baby will suffer the most. He was, are and always be the family he never had. Yes Nandini is his life but they are family that makes his life complete.
Dude I have like no idea where Dhruliya are heading. Or are the CV's trying to contrast the maturity of Manan's relationship as compared the more common type of relationships that exist in today's world. Me so confused. And I've got to admit that last line you said about Aliya made me laugh the most hahaha
I'm actually excited to see what unfolds with tmrw's episode. Not so much for the jealousy track but I know Manik's emotions will peak tomorrow. I'm excited to watch Parth portray the role of a jealous Manik because we both know we have that soft corner for that angry, intense and passionate Manik that awakes when Nandini starts to drive him crazy.
Okay so like a MASSIVE WARNING: Beware of grammar/ spelling mistakes because this last few paragraphs were written via phone. Lol!
Oh and dw... I used my saddist sisterly instincts to figure out your favourite scene before you told me. It obviously had to be the same one as me :P
Lots of love...
