Ok so how can I leave without writing a tiny response.
Out of the 2 days of this stupid merger the one thing I truly missed was your posts!
With our manan back we got our twinkles posts back 😳
I'm really ill at the minute but as soon as I get my energy back I will be back to write my response. You always have a way of explaining things so thank you for making me understand why Manik did what he did in the last scene!
🤗
"Jab tum us classroom se nikle they na...I had given you a point. So it was 2-6. Par lagta hai, ke mujhe bahut jaldi, ek point milne waala hai. Because Mr. Manik Malhotra, mujhe pata hai...ke tum kuch bhi karke, panditji ki class, waapis join karoge. As you said... panditji ke intentions, mere liye... ache nahin hain... hmm?"
So as we usually say about our Manan mondays... they are slow and steady but they get us thinking about what may be in store for us in the week ahead. There were many reasons I liked today's episode. There's not much of Manik's facade left anymore to conceal his true feelings. Navya and her mother's bonding along with a tang of Cabir in the equation was quite a beautiful scene and tomorrow's promo has certainly left us biting our nails.
I want to start off with Navya and her mother first of all because for me... it was one of the best scenes in today's episode. Navya's fear, her guilt, her pain, all made an appearance in today's episode. But like they say, a mother can never stay angry with her child for long. The minute Navya quietly placed her head in her mother's lap, she knew that her daughter wasn't happy. She knew there was more to this story than just the idea of her daughter being pregnant with a child. I feel as though Navya is completely ready to give birth to this child now. Her mother's support was what she had hoped for in this journey and I feel that she will have this support with her throughout. It was just simply so emotional seeing the mother-daughter duo share their tears and pain. No longer was there any spec of anger or exasperation on navya's mother's face, but rather she was only hoping of how she could eradicate the root of the pain in her daughter's heart. Whilst many of us have fallen in love with Navya's equation with Cabir and how the two are always endlessly pulling each other's legs and getting on each other's nerves; we mustn't forget that Navya too is living with an unhealed heart. Her smile, her laughter, her pranks and teasing are all a facade she face-packs on before leaving her bedroom so she doesn't have spread these worries and distress onto her friends. But today she had the chance to rip off that mask and openly let the heart bleed its tears. I absolutely loved the hug when Navya's mother says that she'll talk to the boy and Navya confesses that he won't marry her. That was Navya;s feeling of returning home to her mother, to her warmth, love and care.
On the other side we saw our beloved Cabira trying his best to concentrate on his RJ script but he's unable to. "Stupid Navya... seriously!" Seeing him , thinking about her so worriedly and with so much concern just brought a smile on my face. As much as them two admit they can't stand each other's presence, the truth is that they have become a part of each other's daily routine. Their mutual friendship is the strength that allows them to get through a hectic day with a smile on their faces. Their support is the balm to their bleeding wounds that are still really sensitive. Their presence in each other's lives is the family that they crave in their day-to-day lives. They may not just realise it yet, but their friendship is one which will last a lifetime. No matter, what the circumstances may be, I can foresee that they will never leave each other's sides because both of them have experienced the essence of betrayal, rejection, and broken heart at a very young age,
Also, I see very joy-filled days for the Cavya household as Navya's mother seems like she won't be going anywhere anytime soon. My poor Cabira... have to put up with two Naveli's haha But it'll definitely by a pure entertaining sight to watch the quarrels and laughter-filled arguments that are on their way ahead. 😆
Now moving onto my Manan. So dayum... my Manik started off with boiling in anger and today it seemed like he was going to burn the whole college down. He wasn't in a mood to listen to anything Nandini had to say because it was all in the support of panditji. Let alone his sight, he wasn't ready to even hear the panditji's name and that once again allowed for his true feelings to surface. "Aren't you understanding? He doesn't want me to be a part of this concert!" There wasn't just insecurity in this statement In fact insecurity and jealousy were the last of the reasons for his anger. His nandu is too nave and it's driving him crazy to see someone playing with her honesty, purity and innocence whilst he is there. He is supposed to protect her. At every stage of life. It's his promise to her , to himself ill the very end of their existence, It's burning him to see that the panditji has openly challenged him to replace him so his and nandu's musical notes can't become in sync. At the same time, he sees his hope shattering. He sees their reunion in trouble which is constantly keeping him on the edge. He can't bear the thought of his hope, his love, his nandu going away from him again which seems to be the most painful thoughts of his existence. But we must remember that his fight with himself hasn't finished yet. We are definitely close to witnessing his heart's victory but there is some minimal reminders of the mind that call out to him time-to-time which tends to wipe out the smile from my nandu's face.
"Hang on. In fact I should be happy about it... right? Like me not being a part of it. Nandini...? We won't be able to perform together! *laughs* Right... you're right. No no, pandit is right. Right. My hatred... wins!"
Oh just how when he started with the sentence he seemed to be reminding himself that he was in fact supposed to "hate" her. . He was in fact supposed to be "angry" with her. It simply amused me to see my Manik be so delusional of himself once again and letting the losing opponent; the mind, script his speech to her He was trying to fool himself that he could live without the one who brought life in his life. He was trying to mislead himself that he wants the hope - which has been keeping him alive till now, to loose. He was trying to delude the heart which wanted nothing else but Nandini back in his life.
But we always know that their episode never finishes with the mind winning. They try to make it unpredictable, but like my Nandu had said in the last episode. "Mr. Manik Malhotra has become too predictable nowadays." He always returns to her to re-boost her with the confidence that he might have temporarily wavered for a few seconds. And so when he saw her sitting rather disheartened on the staircase because he had just stolen a point for his non-existent hatred for her, he climbed upto her to try and reason with her one more time. "Kaha tha na maine... woh pandit gaya tha nyonika ke paas. He doesn't want me to be a part of it." It was my Manik's way of telling his Nandu that this fusion concert that holds the hopes of their happiness, their love, their reunion may not be possible if she doesn't see past the facade of her panditji. Oh how badly he just wanted her to believe him. I swear if it were in my Manik's hand, he would hide her so deep in himself so the panditji's shadow wouldn't even be found luring anywhere near his nandini. But my nandu remained stubborn because of the pure heart she possesses. Her faith and trust in everyone around her is never judged upon any external factors. She only listens to her heart and her heart is so pure and innocent that she sees no fault in someone. I really felt scared for her at this scene when she said"Manik, panditji mere guru hain. And guru and shishaya ka rishta... it's so pure." My poor baby just doesn't know the danger that is lurking around her. Someone is yet again about to manipulate her trust and faith. But nevertheless, we know that as long as her manik is there with her, pain won't even dare to touch her shadow. I absolutely loved the confidence she spoke her words just before she headed off to panditji's class. It was her trust in him speaking. It was her hope openly challenging him that even if there was any danger in panditji's intentions, she had nothing to worry about because he would soon return to the class to protect her again. His heart had won once again and so had their hope.
Now what do I say about everyone's favourite; our dearest Nyonika. She just doesn't seem to get it does she that Manik doesn't give a single damn about her or what she says. It truly amuses me to see her growing over-confidence about the fact that Manik gives her more importance than Nandini. How false she is if she thinks that after her current plan, Manan would be separated forever. The forever' bit of her ideology is correct, but the rest of her theory is way far off from being correct. The term forever does associate with Manan, but it can only be used in the context of them being together forever. Once again, she did the job of a catalyst and brought my Manik just that inch closer to his Nandini.
There was a rare irony present in today's episode in relation to Manan and Nyonika. Manik had once questioned Nandini as to how she could believe Nyonika so easily in thinking that he was the culprit behind Soha's deah. And today, it's infact the same Nyonika's words that are repeatedly echoing in his ears about the wrong intentions of panditji. Manik knew he would be contradicting himself if he answered Nandini's question as to who else knows about panditji's evil intentions and so he stopped mid-sentence. This will eventually become a learning for Manik in terms of realising that Nandini wasn't at fault during the manipulated saga of soha's death. He is in a similar situation to what Nandini was during that time. The only difference is that this time, instead of drifting them apart, Nyonika may just be the reason that Manan reunite.
I've got to say whilst my most favourite scene in today's episode was when Manik grabs Nandini's hand in the hope of saving her from going to panditji; it melted my heart to see him waiting at that staircase for her class to finish. The way he paced back and forth in the corridor thinking whether he was over-thinking the situation. You could see how badly he wanted to believe his Nandu and trust her because that's what their relationship was all about. He wanted that his instincts be proven wrong because that would mean that his Nandu was in no danger. Similarly, I love the contrasting scene from Nandini's point of view when upon seeing panditji's hand on her hand; she questions her faith on panditji. She seems to be in the tiff to believe Manik too because she trusts him more than anything in this world, even more than herself. It was just such a beautiful controversy running in each other's hearts because their blind faith on each other is getting them to question their trust on themselves.
So finally the precap has showcased what we've been all waiting for, the manik and dhruv confrontation. Whilst I believe that Manik may not necessarily blast in tomorrow's episode, but at least there will be the revelation of Dhruv's true feelings for Manik without being under the spell of any kind of intoxication. So what is this secret that Dhruv is so eager to tell everyone about? Personally I thought it was the secret as to why Manik couldn't perform for the musicana auditions and the time he sung on phone. But you never know, we may be in for a surprise from the CV's. And of course... I'm excited because my nandu is there and when she will see a somewhat broken manik, she will again become the reason for his healing.
Look who it is..I am here and so is Monday. And yes, Monday always serves a good setup for the rest of the week..and this week shall be a hard for Manik maltorta, one that will probably bring a lot of heartbreak for him but more on that later.
We start with the Navelis. Honestly, i loved Navya and her mother's scene too. It is no love parllel to the one that a parent shares with their child. They learn to love them before they even see them and after they do see them, they vow to protect and love them for the rest of their lives. Navya's mother surprised me, i hadn't expected her to be understanding but am so pleasantly surprised and touched to see her love shine above anything else: what the society might think, how could she disgrace the family this ? Nothing ! she just wants to make life better for her daughter, to take away the pain, the tears. She is willing to do anything. Navya's mother won my heart today. And you are right, she is probably staying around so the Cavya household shall be a fun one..lol
My Cabira: I never get tired of saying it. This man has a heart of gold. A wonderful friend everyone should have. From his worry for 'Stupid Navya' to his concern for his best friends, he has so much care for the people he loves. He and Manik are similar that way. I read somewhere that Cabir might realize what a difficult job Manik has had all his life, of caring for these best friends and for keeping Fab 5 together. Alya and Dhruv's relationship can and will eventually become a problem for Fab 5. Infact, it already has, Dhruv's attitude problem has alot to do with Alya and the relationship issues they have faced, and Dhruv's resentment towards Manik has been born from there. While we are at it, let's talk about the precap. Manik, oh Manik. He will get hit so hard tomorrow that i am so glad that Nandini will be there to hold him while he falls. Dhruv's bitterness will be vocalized tomorrow and he will be taken seriously this time ( he happens to be sober this time around). I am not really anxious about the secret but the fact that Dhruv has rubbed it in Manik's face and show the 'give and take' aspect of their relationship, where all the love and care Manik has been given was repaid by Dhruv keeping a secret, that's shallow, Dhruv, That's just really shallow and makes me sad that this, a person like you Manik loves like a brother...a person like you who Manik scarificed the most sacred and purest love he ever knew. I hope Dhruv can look himself in the mirror and recoginze the person he has come but i don't. He was a sweet lad who had a huge heart and sensitivity about him that the rest of his friends apparently lacked.
Onto our Manan now. Today proved once again how different Manik and Nandini are from each other..and how different they have had life and hence when they come together and see life from each other's perspective, it really boardens their own perspective. Manik, he has seen cruelty, he know how harsh life can be, how evil people can be so his gut feeling about Pandit is indeed right. But his Nandu, she is all naive and innocence. She has led a life where good things happen to good people and everyone has a pure heart. While she has learned over time, that isn't the case, it doesn't stop her from believing in the goodness of people and the world. That's why she can't see Pandit and his evil intentions because for her a guru and student's relationship is pure. In her ideal world, yes that certain relationship should be pure and Nandini has no reason to doubt that. But she trusts Manik. she believes Manik and that's why they show her thinking about what Manik has said. And now she wondering, was Manik right ? Shows she regards him and his opinion.
And contrast that to Manik thinking from Nandini's POV. He knows it. The Pandit, he is not a good man but he tries to go against his own thinking..he tries so desperately to think like his Nandu who only sees the good in the world..as he paces in worry and anxiety for her class to finish, he wants to believe Nandini because he needs her safe. His anxiety today at not being present in the music room keeping a watchful eye on Pandit was just eating at him. Manik Maltorta, all his life he has protected those he loves...but he couldn't do his job, he couldn't protect the person he loves the most.
Coming to their supposedly hope vs.hatred battle going on. I loved how Nandini just wanted to calm Manik down as the episode opened. I say so often: she is his calm in the noise and chaos of life. So when she sits him down, hovers over keeping a hand on his shoulder, and listening to her soothing, reasoning voice. He does calm down. Yes, he is still agitated and edgy, but he doesn't lash out, doesn't throw things. That's the change Nandini has brought. That's why so many people were surprised at the return of an aggressive Manik Maltorta on Friday because nandini has changed him. Yes, he does still get angry and lash out as we saw on friday but he doesn't do as often. A big, positive development for me.
He is all heart when he going off about them not being able to perform together..because he wants her hope to win..her hope, his hope, their hope has to win until the mind clicks in. Then he realizes he isn't suppose to be rooting for her hope, rather his hatred needs to win and even as he walked away with a point, i knew his heart would make a stellar comeback and it does ! His hand reaches out and stops her. And that look ! that look he gives her, pure love and agony all wrapped in one damn look..my beautiful moment right there. He doesn't want to let her walk away towards danger, he can't ! he can't let her go where he can't protect her. But his girl, she has so much faith and confidence in him, she loosens the grip but not before she reassures him : I have faith in you. I know that you will find a way to protect me again. i know you will part of the fusion concert again so our hope can win.
Okies..seems like my thoughts are all out there. Lovely as always my dear,

</div>Hola my lovely!
<div>Okay first thing first... how are you feeling now? I hope you're feeling much better because a new episode is just around the corner and I can just feel it we'll have a lot of mid-blowing, intense scenes coming up this week.So sorry I couldn't reply to this sooner, but here I am finally haha. So I am glad our feelings for Cavya are pretty much the same. It's going to take a little bit of an effort from my Cabira to win over Navya's anger and make her smile again but he knows that there is the potential of a pure friendshio between the two so he's going to give it everything he has. He wull support her right till the end.I'm glad you mentioned that bit about Dhruv and Manik that there will be a heated confrontation before they have the chance to talk. Yup.. well said. There is a storm on its way and it's not too far now because tonight Manik will be officially out of the concert and Dhruv will be his replacement so we can expect Manik to be trying his best to re-gain that spot and that's when Dhruv will blow up. He will feel that Manik doesn't want him to excel and Manik doesn't find him talented enough so it will call his volcano to erupt like never before. However, it's a necessary explosion I reckon because some truths need to be revealed and Dhruv needs to realise that he is trying ot be somone who he isn't.And now Manan. No matter how much we talk about them... I think we can never have neough haha. You're right... she was just soo delighted today despite having to be away from him for 2 days because he had left her with a beautiful gift. In his jealousy towards pandit, she sees his love for her and that's more than enough to keep her going for a lifetime. She knows that now she's really just inches away from the victory line and there is nothibg that can stop him from being hers and stop her from being his.That kast bit you talked about, when Manik stands in front of Nandini! Very very well pointed out. No it's not you over-thinking in fact I had realised it too but I just can't remember how I missed talking about it. You bet that was his protectorship stepping in and it screamed fire. That fire inside him which is burning against pandit's intentions seems to be growing everyday and that day isn' far that it may actually engulf this pandit. This panditji is really psuhing my manik to the edge and my manik can't bear him even eyeing his nandu let alone touching or spending alone time with her. So he stood in front of nandu to protect her from his sight too. And you know what I'm excited for... my nandu will fight to get manik back in this concert too. No way is she going to perform with anyone else except for her other half and so it's going to be manan fighting for each other now.Hoping tonight's episode is excitement-filled!Take care :)Twinkle :)

DAY 15! - The catch-up date!"Ohh... I thought your heart.."
Finallyyy my manan are back and I can brag about them as much as I want! But I think before I move onto them, I would like to focus on some of the other aspects of today's episode!Let's start with Cavya shall we. Well well... Cabir as Navya's "boyfriend"... not bad, not bad! haha But gosh I have to admit the look on Cabir's face was absolutely priceless when Navya's mum refers to him as her boyfriend. He really is such a fine actor and truly knows how to put life into the character of Cabir. So a little bit of a bad news... Navya's mum has found out about the baby and whilst I feel bad for Navya because she didn't get a chance to properly sit down and make her mum understand the whole situation, I feel it's better for her that the truth is out in the open now. It had to be revealed someday and I would say the earlier it happened, the better because it will give enough time for Navya to somewhat re-gather herself and fight for herself and her baby in this situation. If she had delayed it, I feel it would have been more stressful for her and the baby because at the back of her mind there would've been that constant guilt of not only committing this big of a blunder but also not having to tell her mum about it. Now that the truth is out, I feel there is enough time for Cavya's friendship to deepen and blossom too These early struggles will teach both of them to become independent in life as well as find a sense of belonging within the company of each other. We will also gradually get to see a sense of maturity and a realisation of responsibility from Navya's character which will assist in her journey of motherhood. I feel whilst 95% of Navya was ready to deliver and give birth to this baby, there still remained a 5% doubt purely because she didn't know how her parents and especially her mother would react. But now when the air will be cleared out, I find that even that 5% dilemma will be eliminated from her mind. She will be fully ready to give birth to this baby after this as she will have a clear idea that she needs and wants this baby for hers This baby, along with Cabir's friendship will becoming the new reason for her life, the definition of her happiness and the new means of a fresh start for Navya. She won't have to deal with the fear of society or her parents. Honestly, I beleive that while Cabir is a little nervous about having this baby being born in his house, this baby will in a way complete his life too. We can all understand his rather hilariously reluctant state-of-mind towards this baby but I can just foresee that during his journey with Navya through her pregnancy and afterwards, he will find that essence of happiness that somewhat lacks in his life. There will be the awakening of tremendous love for this baby in his heart which will introduce him to an altogether new blissful feeling. This journey is going to be very vital in terms of shaping both the characters into more matured, responsible and more sorted individuals. I look forward towards this growth of theirs.Moving onto Mukhbi. To be honest I'm heartbroken for mukti. How I just wanted to tell her so badly that omg no please just look under the bed once, I really feel for the girl because whilst everyone seems to be making their way to shore in a slow and steady pace, she's still struggling with the high and low tides of her life. We were so happy for her last week and earlier this week because she had started believing in true love... she had started understanding the value of love and happiness and I was happy that she was experiencing it herself. But now I'm just heartbroken to see her back to feeling cheated and lied to. Obviously we don't know yet what Abhi has written in that letter and this story can go two ways now. One would be that he has just decided to leave the hospital because he knows chemo has stopped showing its effect and it's possible that he may have left an address or phone number for mukti. Or this can take on a totally opposite route where he has left with his final goodbye to her and doesn't want her to try and find him. Honestly at this stage I think it's too vague for me to make a final assumption because today's episode didn't explore their situation in too much depth. I guess we shall just see whether mukti gets hold of that note or not.And now onto my final stopover before I move onto my beloved Manan. So Manik and Dhruv seemed to have had the chance to have a short-stop talk and there was both a good side and a bad side to it , in my opinion. It was quite disheartening to see Dhruv mock Manik about his fan-following and how he repeatedly scorned him for pre-booking the tickets. I actually had been thinking about this for the last few days and was rather disappointed towards Dhruv's absolute null reaction towards him and Nandini. I mean we all know that every member of the Fab 5 is aware of Manik's feelings towards Nandini and they do know to an extent that they share a bond so deep that they will eventually reunite. But I just feel that Dhruv has almost decided to pretend like he can see nothing and he can't hear a thing either. I understand that his frustration towards Aliya has seemed to trigger these volcanic eruptions towards Manik but I feel there is certain extend as to how much you can overlook the reality but at this stage, Dhruv seems to be in no mood to listen to anything in favour of Manik. Like seriously how can he just forget everything that Manik has done for him? Apart from the sacrifice, because he doesn't even know about that at this stage, Manik has always made sure to be Dhruv's shadow, his pillar of support and his ultimate protector so absolutely nothing can cause him any sort of pain. I find it rather daunting that how can Dhruv just overlook and simply forget all of that? He was that one person apart from Cabir of course, who I had actually hoped will help my Manik through this hard time and in fact motivate him to not give up on Nandini. But let alone share his sorrows, he didn't even try.*sigh* I wonder how many more test my Manik will have to go through. Well I guess that one thing good in their conversation was that when Manik tells Dhruv that they need to have a talk, Dhruv agrees to it. Chalo at least there is still some sort of a desire from his behalf to listen and converse with his friend otherwise I think we all know that Manik would've been heartbroken.And now to the finale segment of my post. My manan! I've got to confess that when they paired up on-screen in today's episode, my heart found solace and my eyes finally discovered delight. The episode started and his car halted to a stop in front of her doorstep and I was happy. Then I saw him abandon the idea of hooting a horn and instead he smiled a small smile to himself thinking about how close he finally was to her and my grin grew. Then I witnessed his adoring care towards her when he says "must be sleeping"... my heart melted because today he was terminating and resisting the idea of meeting her because he didn't want to disturb her in anyway. He was willing to hold on to his need of seeing her, only and only so her sleep wasn't interrupted. But what happened next was the reason of my uncontrolled smile and overwhelming glee. To his disbelief she rocked up at his footsteps, knowing that he wouldn't have deprived her off just one glimpse of himself. She was confident and hence she had been waiting. She knew her hope, his hope, would drag him to the murthy's residence. His need to see her safe and protected, his specs of jealousy, his impatience of seeing just one glimpse of her, drew him to her window once again. And then he opened his eyes to what had been awaiting him for what seemed like an eternity for her. When he saw the lights of her excitement, when he saw the decor of her wait, when he felt the touch of her love; he knew he was home. He was tired but that just made the scene all so much more beautiful. His struggle with himself hardly lasted against his exhaustion. His heart was just too content to be with her. To see her. To hear her.Manik: "You know I've had a long flight. And a very tiring one. So instead of coming here, I would've gone home."Oh how just how he wanted to make it all too convincing to her but he forgot in the moment that perhaps he should've considered where he actually was standing.Nandini: "Lekin, aaye tum yahaa"She knew she had a clear win. Their hope had won again.I just loved the way she made herself comfortable on the floor and straightaway started updating him about her day. Oh she really just knows him way too well. She knew his mind would restrict him to start with this catching-up session so she might as well do the honors. She knew the questions that were making errands all over in his mind. And so before he even had the chance to ask them... she answered it herself in a rather teasing manner. "And btw... before you ask about the panditji haan... unhone kuch nahi kiya... kuch bhi nahi". She knew she had sparked the burning a little. It effected him, it was the question that had been bothering him all-day long. And he had gotten his answers now. His smile assured us that.He figured at that point there was no point arguing and denying her. There was no point denying himself. He had been longing for this alone time with her throughout the whole day so he might as well cherish the moments. His heart simply released his love, care and trust to flow in every vein of his and he again felt that heavenly homely feeling. I saw my manan being friends today. The friendship that was necessary for their love to bloom and grow to boundary-less extremities. He opened up to her about his whole day and she felt the warmth of being able to share his experiences. Of being able to share his happiness with him.Oh how my Manik had missed talking to his Nandu. Just the pure pleasure of being able to share endless and countless conversations. There was a part of him that wanted to open up more. He wanted to talk about V, his past, his memories, his dilemmas. Dhruv... Panditji... V. It was all building up on him. "I'm tired". The truth was he wasn't just physically exhausted but mentally drained out too. This whole mind vs heart struggle was raising all kind of questions within him. Who was he to Nandini? Why was he feeling this sense of discomfort seeing panditji around her? What had triggered Dhruv to think so wrongly of him? What is that unnamed bond that always brings them together at the end of every day? He was tried of himself and of all the questions existing inside him.But then he felt the magic of her touch and the cyclone inside him seemed to calm down for sometime. He welcomed her fingers into his palm with the same ease that she had slipped them in with. It was exactly what he had needed at that point. The reassurance that she was there for him, with him. She waited for him yesterday, she waited for him today and will always wait for him at every step of life. She wanted him to know that no matter how tired he may be, she will always make him feel at home when he will return to her. She will never give up on him for even a single second. It was her way of promising that she missed him just as much as he missed her, if not more. And she will always continue to miss him whenever he leaves her again for a trip or visit like this. She was promising him that she will always remain his and he will always remain her despite all the joking and teasing. She was promising herself to him."I'm not angry. Gussa nahin hoon main... actually now it's not hurting that much." Her touch worked. Her balm of love and trust have almost healed him. I loved how just upon her one touch, he seemed to be feeling better. He seemed to be feeling calm about all of his inner-turmoils. He seemed to be confident that this time she won't let go of his hand again. And so he confessed that the pain and agony of betrayal had subsided. Again I felt the whole scene was much more beautiful with his half-denial when she teases him that she thought he was talking about his heart. "Hope karo... hope karti raho". He needed her to keep hoping because she was carrying his hope too. It almost seems that Manik has almost handed himself to his Nandu now. He is ready to go wherever she takes him, And why? Because he's started to realise that she had always trusted him. Her trust never wavered. So now he's begun to trust her trust again.Now how can I absolutely end this response without talking about Manik's rather intensely aggressive side that surfaced today. She just loves pushing him to the edge doesn't she? And that's exactly what happened today. My manik flipped because his mind was still caught up in the words of panditji's question to him. His mind was going crazy thinking about the not-so-clear intentions of the panditji. "Waise... don't you think ki you're going to lose? Matlab... maan na padega, your hold on this game is slipping." Whilst she was referring to their hatred vs hope challenger here, he believed it to be in relation to panditji's challenge against him. While she talked about his hatred losing, he understood it as him losing her. While she meant it to be his grip on his anger loosening, he thought of it as him loosing her right on her. And hence the inner-volcano erupted. His hands pulled her towards him in the hope to make her realise that his firm on her is so strong that even if she herself wanted to loosen it, it was almost impossible. He wanted to make her realise that she wasn't some commodity that somebody could just win her over from him. She was a part of him and nobody without his permission could even touch her, let alone take her away from his life. His grip tightened today in the fear, the insecurity and the pain of losing her.So as usual we have been left to witness the big announcement on Monday and I think I'm going to go crazy thinking about how he'll re-gain this position of his.Hope you all enjoyed today's episode!Stay smiling :)Twinkle!

"Jab tum us classroom se nikle they na...I had given you a point. So it was 2-6. Par lagta hai, ke mujhe bahut jaldi, ek point milne waala hai. Because Mr. Manik Malhotra, mujhe pata hai...ke tum kuch bhi karke, panditji ki class, waapis join karoge. As you said... panditji ke intentions, mere liye... ache nahin hain... hmm?"
So as we usually say about our Manan mondays... they are slow and steady but they get us thinking about what may be in store for us in the week ahead. There were many reasons I liked today's episode. There's not much of Manik's facade left anymore to conceal his true feelings. Navya and her mother's bonding along with a tang of Cabir in the equation was quite a beautiful scene and tomorrow's promo has certainly left us biting our nails.
I want to start off with Navya and her mother first of all because for me... it was one of the best scenes in today's episode. Navya's fear, her guilt, her pain, all made an appearance in today's episode. But like they say, a mother can never stay angry with her child for long. The minute Navya quietly placed her head in her mother's lap, she knew that her daughter wasn't happy. She knew there was more to this story than just the idea of her daughter being pregnant with a child. I feel as though Navya is completely ready to give birth to this child now. Her mother's support was what she had hoped for in this journey and I feel that she will have this support with her throughout. It was just simply so emotional seeing the mother-daughter duo share their tears and pain. No longer was there any spec of anger or exasperation on navya's mother's face, but rather she was only hoping of how she could eradicate the root of the pain in her daughter's heart. Whilst many of us have fallen in love with Navya's equation with Cabir and how the two are always endlessly pulling each other's legs and getting on each other's nerves; we mustn't forget that Navya too is living with an unhealed heart. Her smile, her laughter, her pranks and teasing are all a facade she face-packs on before leaving her bedroom so she doesn't have spread these worries and distress onto her friends. But today she had the chance to rip off that mask and openly let the heart bleed its tears. I absolutely loved the hug when Navya's mother says that she'll talk to the boy and Navya confesses that he won't marry her. That was Navya;s feeling of returning home to her mother, to her warmth, love and care.
On the other side we saw our beloved Cabira trying his best to concentrate on his RJ script but he's unable to. "Stupid Navya... seriously!" Seeing him , thinking about her so worriedly and with so much concern just brought a smile on my face. As much as them two admit they can't stand each other's presence, the truth is that they have become a part of each other's daily routine. Their mutual friendship is the strength that allows them to get through a hectic day with a smile on their faces. Their support is the balm to their bleeding wounds that are still really sensitive. Their presence in each other's lives is the family that they crave in their day-to-day lives. They may not just realise it yet, but their friendship is one which will last a lifetime. No matter, what the circumstances may be, I can foresee that they will never leave each other's sides because both of them have experienced the essence of betrayal, rejection, and broken heart at a very young age,
Also, I see very joy-filled days for the Cavya household as Navya's mother seems like she won't be going anywhere anytime soon. My poor Cabira... have to put up with two Naveli's haha But it'll definitely by a pure entertaining sight to watch the quarrels and laughter-filled arguments that are on their way ahead. 😆
Now moving onto my Manan. So dayum... my Manik started off with boiling in anger and today it seemed like he was going to burn the whole college down. He wasn't in a mood to listen to anything Nandini had to say because it was all in the support of panditji. Let alone his sight, he wasn't ready to even hear the panditji's name and that once again allowed for his true feelings to surface. "Aren't you understanding? He doesn't want me to be a part of this concert!" There wasn't just insecurity in this statement In fact insecurity and jealousy were the last of the reasons for his anger. His nandu is too nave and it's driving him crazy to see someone playing with her honesty, purity and innocence whilst he is there. He is supposed to protect her. At every stage of life. It's his promise to her , to himself ill the very end of their existence, It's burning him to see that the panditji has openly challenged him to replace him so his and nandu's musical notes can't become in sync. At the same time, he sees his hope shattering. He sees their reunion in trouble which is constantly keeping him on the edge. He can't bear the thought of his hope, his love, his nandu going away from him again which seems to be the most painful thoughts of his existence. But we must remember that his fight with himself hasn't finished yet. We are definitely close to witnessing his heart's victory but there is some minimal reminders of the mind that call out to him time-to-time which tends to wipe out the smile from my nandu's face.
"Hang on. In fact I should be happy about it... right? Like me not being a part of it. Nandini...? We won't be able to perform together! *laughs* Right... you're right. No no, pandit is right. Right. My hatred... wins!"
Oh just how when he started with the sentence he seemed to be reminding himself that he was in fact supposed to "hate" her. . He was in fact supposed to be "angry" with her. It simply amused me to see my Manik be so delusional of himself once again and letting the losing opponent; the mind, script his speech to her He was trying to fool himself that he could live without the one who brought life in his life. He was trying to mislead himself that he wants the hope - which has been keeping him alive till now, to loose. He was trying to delude the heart which wanted nothing else but Nandini back in his life.
But we always know that their episode never finishes with the mind winning. They try to make it unpredictable, but like my Nandu had said in the last episode. "Mr. Manik Malhotra has become too predictable nowadays." He always returns to her to re-boost her with the confidence that he might have temporarily wavered for a few seconds. And so when he saw her sitting rather disheartened on the staircase because he had just stolen a point for his non-existent hatred for her, he climbed upto her to try and reason with her one more time. "Kaha tha na maine... woh pandit gaya tha nyonika ke paas. He doesn't want me to be a part of it." It was my Manik's way of telling his Nandu that this fusion concert that holds the hopes of their happiness, their love, their reunion may not be possible if she doesn't see past the facade of her panditji. Oh how badly he just wanted her to believe him. I swear if it were in my Manik's hand, he would hide her so deep in himself so the panditji's shadow wouldn't even be found luring anywhere near his nandini. But my nandu remained stubborn because of the pure heart she possesses. Her faith and trust in everyone around her is never judged upon any external factors. She only listens to her heart and her heart is so pure and innocent that she sees no fault in someone. I really felt scared for her at this scene when she said "Manik, panditji mere guru hain. And guru and shishaya ka rishta... it's so pure." My poor baby just doesn't know the danger that is lurking around her. Someone is yet again about to manipulate her trust and faith. But nevertheless, we know that as long as her manik is there with her, pain won't even dare to touch her shadow. I absolutely loved the confidence she spoke her words just before she headed off to panditji's class. It was her trust in him speaking. It was her hope openly challenging him that even if there was any danger in panditji's intentions, she had nothing to worry about because he would soon return to the class to protect her again. His heart had won once again and so had their hope.
Now what do I say about everyone's favourite; our dearest Nyonika. She just doesn't seem to get it does she that Manik doesn't give a single damn about her or what she says. It truly amuses me to see her growing over-confidence about the fact that Manik gives her more importance than Nandini. How false she is if she thinks that after her current plan, Manan would be separated forever. The forever' bit of her ideology is correct, but the rest of her theory is way far off from being correct. The term forever does associate with Manan, but it can only be used in the context of them being together forever. Once again, she did the job of a catalyst and brought my Manik just that inch closer to his Nandini.
There was a rare irony present in today's episode in relation to Manan and Nyonika. Manik had once questioned Nandini as to how she could believe Nyonika so easily in thinking that he was the culprit behind Soha's deah. And today, it's infact the same Nyonika's words that are repeatedly echoing in his ears about the wrong intentions of panditji. Manik knew he would be contradicting himself if he answered Nandini's question as to who else knows about panditji's evil intentions and so he stopped mid-sentence. This will eventually become a learning for Manik in terms of realising that Nandini wasn't at fault during the manipulated saga of soha's death. He is in a similar situation to what Nandini was during that time. The only difference is that this time, instead of drifting them apart, Nyonika may just be the reason that Manan reunite.
I've got to say whilst my most favourite scene in today's episode was when Manik grabs Nandini's hand in the hope of saving her from going to panditji; it melted my heart to see him waiting at that staircase for her class to finish. The way he paced back and forth in the corridor thinking whether he was over-thinking the situation. You could see how badly he wanted to believe his Nandu and trust her because that's what their relationship was all about. He wanted that his instincts be proven wrong because that would mean that his Nandu was in no danger. Similarly, I love the contrasting scene from Nandini's point of view when upon seeing panditji's hand on her hand; she questions her faith on panditji. She seems to be in the tiff to believe Manik too because she trusts him more than anything in this world, even more than herself. It was just such a beautiful controversy running in each other's hearts because their blind faith on each other is getting them to question their trust on themselves.
So finally the precap has showcased what we've been all waiting for, the manik and dhruv confrontation. Whilst I believe that Manik may not necessarily blast in tomorrow's episode, but at least there will be the revelation of Dhruv's true feelings for Manik without being under the spell of any kind of intoxication. So what is this secret that Dhruv is so eager to tell everyone about? Personally I thought it was the secret as to why Manik couldn't perform for the musicana auditions and the time he sung on phone. But you never know, we may be in for a surprise from the CV's. And of course... I'm excited because my nandu is there and when she will see a somewhat broken manik, she will again become the reason for his healing.
Hope you all enjoyed today's episode!
