Let's think....not feel!!

The reason...feelings always cloud our judgments...so lets use our grey cells for a change instead of our heartbeats!!

Quite a few are disgruntled with the track right now!! Some were never happy with the Soha track in the first place..and so the unhappiness is deep rooted. Just wanna touch base about this first... The moment Soha was introduced she was trouble with a capital T, and serious trouble cause she was Soha Khurana!! The girl had power...she was the female Manik Malhotra!! And people who have a powerful backing at a very young age..learn to use it too very quickly...just like Manik..they know how to negotiate and manipulate!! Soha was no ordinary girl with a crush on Manik..nope...she wanted him and she would have got him. Soha would have ripped MaNan apart without a doubt..if and only if it was not Manik on the other side. Any other guy and he would have buckled under the Khurana duo pressure...unluckily for the father daughter and luckily for us...she chose the wrong guy...Manik had the power and the means and the money to fight back and so he did...but he was never...never going to get out of it without collateral damage.
Soha was also brought in for one big reason..jealousy. And no..please do not underestimate or look down upon this very very powerful human emotion. It can lead to love, confession and even murder!! If love can push buttons, hate and jealousy are equally powerful string pullers. And nope jealousy does not translate as lack of trust or faith...nope not always...its definitely more complex than that!! Soha made Nandini realize she was not capable of letting go of Manik. She could walk away, that was manageable but seeing him with someone else...was just not an option!! Nandini's realization and desperation were all brought on by jealousy..yes it does good too!!
So, the track did some good and some bad in the end...but what it brought about was what we always knew!! MaNan were weak somewhere...yes it hurts like hell to say that...but that's the brutal truth. A relationship grows, takes roots...takes years to build..block by block...experience by experience. Just attraction, physical or otherwise is not love..right??
Soha did not destroy MaNan...nothing could have pulled them apart if they were strong enough!! For me the way Soha track ended was perfect...the girl had power..she used it...Manik fought back but some damage had to be suffered. She revealed their strengths and their weaknesses too...
Now...the IHU track that some feel is stretched now!! Let's look at what Nandini did (and before someone says a word about my partiality...stop...I was among the first to defend her stand...so please I don't belong to camps and those who do...they don't belong in my posts...thank you!!) She was doubtful about MURDER!! Yes...it was a murder charge...killing someone willfully!! Just for one moment think...if Khurana would have refused to take back the charge...then Nyonika's all the power in the world might not have been enough to get Manik out of prison. Yes...Nandini's statement was like the death knell!! It effectively killed Manik's life...his future...the guy would have spent his whole life in and out of courts and jails, totally destroyed!! All for the fact that he saved Nandini !! Nandini's doubt...one second of floundering was akin to Manik's murder!! We are watching this as a love story...but lets not forget the implications of certain actions!! How would you have fared in Manik's shoes...would you be able to forgive a partner whose doubtful testimony would have labelled you as a murderer...really??? However much I hate Nyonika...I owe her for two things...saving Manik's hand and saving his life...literally!! (Yes..it was a trap laid by her...but...no one knew that right other than khurana and us...so the case was at that moment genuine...the magistrate and his ruling were genuine too..)
We take this as a lovers' tiff and so want him to forgive and forget, but is that justified?? Is that what this was...just a small lack of trust...a misunderstanding...?? Can we please consider the implications of this slip up and then understand the man's hurt?? Nandini understands...yes, she understands the magnitude...only some of us don't!!
Now, coming to the future jealousy track that quite a few are against...some saying being there done that?? When?? With Dhruv ?? Some instances yes...but was it pure jealousy?? Nope...there were several undercurrents. Manik was very insecure..he wanted to be what Dhruv was to her!! And he also just did not feel good enough for Nandini, at the back of it all he felt inadequate, he knew Dhruv was a better choice!! He wanted her to smile for him, to treat him as a friend, a confidant that Dhruv had become for her..but the poor guy just didn't know how to go about him!! It was not much of why are you smiling at him...but more of why are you not smiling at me?? Why do I get the frowns..?? It was more about Manik and what he wanted from Nandini!! Yes...there was traces of jealousy too but they were tempered and controlled by the fact that he absolutely loved Dhruv like a brother!! Then is pure jealousy even a possibility?? Please don't kill me for saying this but at that time I felt Manik loved Dhruv more than he loved Nandini..that was the attraction phase...love came later much later. So...my point...no we have not witnessed a purely jealous Manik !! What we saw was conflict..yes...he finally left her for Dhruv...then how could that be jealousy?? Wasn't that his unconditional love for a friend??
This track is different...this promises to be pure possessive...un adultered jealousy...!! He owes the Pandit nothing but antagonism...so this should be a different ball game altogether!! And somewhere they have taken each other for granted...time for a wake up call!! Time to realize, like Nandini did...that you can walk away but can you see her with some one else?? And those who say, Jealousy is just more salt...nope its a spice..a seasoning that is always welcome in a relationship...as it grows older..it needs to be re invented...rejuvenated...and this one spice can give it a breath of fresh air...trust me!! šŸ˜† Some say he has suffered enough...huh??? He is in love ..right?? Love is half pain, half pleasure.😃...even at seventy you feel unhappy if your partner gives more attention to grandkids and less to you...ask your Dadaji..he will know!! šŸ˜‰ So who are we to decide that they have suffered enough..if so then they have loved enough too...?? šŸ˜›
The problem is not MaNan...its us!! We each have our individual expectations or thoughts or opinions and we feel the story should progress accordingly..can we just sit back and let them tell their story šŸ˜†!! ( I have mine too...and I lectured myself mercilessly trust me..) ANother problem...we love them...we love them too much...and that's makes us emotional..unbalanced!! Can we take a few paces back...clear our vision and then take a look...its a gorgeous love story...and its still in the making!!
(And I am not in the pay of the cvs...some might label me their chamchi...again...but I have a bad habit of saying what I feel...so sorry...šŸ˜†)

WOHOOO I GET THE FIRST POST! WOHOO
NOW LET ME JUST SPEND THE FIRST FIVE MINUTES HYPERVENTILATING AND DANCING LIKE A FANGIRL.

KAY?
WOHOOO

LET ME FEEL NOT THINK.

Calms down.šŸ˜†

Unreserving now.

The amount of times i've to refresh to see your posts! i be all happy to be first kay?🤣
I really love how you give such a well thought and well analyzed analysis of everything and I don't think there's any sort of bias here. You always produce beautiful angles to things and simply adore anything you write because it's so clear first of all, so deep and so well put and sends your brain wheels churning. So just always always keep writing because I LITERALLY LOVE YOUR POSTS SO MUCH! And you're always bursting with optimism about this show like Genie Ma. You both should sit together and nobody will be able to not love this show lmao.


Now coming back to the show I've to admit that it has become sorts of an addictionšŸ˜† there was a time when even I had it on a pedestal as the show that's set to be apart and the most amazing, different one ever. The first 70 episodes of this show will always be really special for me and unbeatable as well. They were something else.

Now I see it more as a show with its needed amount of fillers and dragging and their limited availability of thing of sorts. There are days i do like the episodes and days i really don't. I always prize brilliant quality, settings, placement, over quantity. For me because scenes + scenes make any show, i want every scene to be not just depicted beautifully but to be impactful and moving the show even further. I think also because I love critically studying stories i sometimes expect too much so its okay.šŸ˜†

Now having said that, coming to my babies, I adore them. They're just two teenagers stuck in a phase that's too intense for them to handle. Both Manik and Nandini have to do some learning of their own. I don't want them to get back together 'just because' without taking any lessons from this. In fact I'm hoping for them to take the long road and discover themselves before stepping back into this relationship.

Manik is my baby, like a little adorable bachha for me, but I know that he has a lot of learning to do on his own, things that Nandini has and should have absolutely no hand in. He cannot always revert back and play into Nyonika's hands for give and take. Manik lets Nyonika Manipulate him because he simply allows for it to happen. And I want him to break free from those shackles. The moment he does he'll be liberated and he'll breathe.

I know Nandini had a simple, gullible moment of human error and erring in the courtroom and she's that gullible but Manik also has yet to learn the depth of her vulnerability, of what this means to her, of what he means to her, of how this girl has always incurred losses, great loss of the people she so dearly loved. Since the day she's been in his life she's been trying her best to cope, and somewhere under all that pressure the girl's bound to loose her self and that's where I want my boy to step in. I don't want Nandini to always nurse his hurts because he's so much more capable of so many more things than his anger and confusions. And he's always shown that sensiblity and capability and this one time I want him to be the one to walk on that learning curve and find his self.

And Nandini too, too many questions she needs answers to, she should need answers to, so many facts of life, harsh as they're she needs to learn. She needs to see things as grey, learn the harsh truth about many people. Smile abundantly.

This whole partnership thing looks quite interesting because it's again taking them to their base. Partners, that's how they started communicating. Manik's doing that right now. He needs her, he loves her and he wants to give her that chance, give their relationship that chance by making her see things as what they're and not as what they're sold.
He's always had this 'she just believed me. Maan bhi liya usne. Manik aise kaise kuch karsakta hai?'

And he knows that's where the root cause lies. And because he's Manik he'll show her the truth of it all in his own implicit way because he can never be away from her and he who gives no one any chances will do it for them.

Babies are just perff in that way.
and so adorable.
But they've a lot to learn yet and I'm hoping this track brings all that to limelight and more. I wouldn't mind the much needed introspection and time apart, with both focusing on their goals, Nandini on herself as an individual and Manik on himself as an individual toward positive construction.

PHEW.
Rida.😳

P.S. JEALOUS MANIK IS ONE ENTERTAINING PACKAGE I'D NEVER WANNA MISS.

today i want to say eveline... i love u for this... u read my mind...

the way I was trying to express abt the jealousy track for manik from these many days but I think no one understood that at the time of dhruv, Manik cudn't put his state of mind properly bcz it was his starting stage of feelings towards nandini n other side it was his best buddy...that's y his jealousy was not that much clear...so this future track was much needed for manik to realize that y he cant live with or without her...if he can't live with her thn others will try to enter her life n he cant stop anyone cmg into her life

which nandini did during soha's track...it's not easy to give up a relationship with one reason...

i want to add a point here... MaNan's realization was started at friendship phase actually when nandani said "lets get to know eachother " which Manik cudn't understand her at that time... which she understood to some extent but failed at a point of trust... n now manik is gonna understand that how much he knows her n he making her understand how much she understands him...
again the trust factor will come here but this time from manik's side...he completely trusts nandu but his jealousy along with possessiveness will come out for her...n the fear of losing or gng away myt make him understand that he can't let her go at any cost...n fear of nandini giving imp to others more than him...

i can only say that they r learning what they just said to eachother in words...they r knowing each other

hope i made sense.

but u r just awesome

let's not comment on your whole post...😳 just wanna say that I agree with your each and every point😊
let me comment on just the last note...U are absolutely correct that the problem is not Manan...it's us...really it's us only...we are so much possessive about the show that we expect the story to go according to our will which will never happen...
We are different in nature and it's obvious that we will think differently...our choice and desire will also be different...being possessive about the characters and expecting too much we will just ruin the story...so yes let the story go with it's flow...
CV knows better than us...

Keep calm and love Manan šŸ¤—

You know they are at a dead lock...at a stand still and they will need a push...actually a shove!! Sometimes we need big shocks to move on inlife...and I thin MaNan need something big too...if you can think of an alternate...let it flow...šŸ˜† Yes...he realizes it...but that realization for now is buried under his disappointment and anger...it needs to come to the fore naa...jealousy can dig up your whole heart from inside out...šŸ˜† Glad you disagreed...I am in need of a true friend what would I do with a yes man...😃
