Manik's tone can be patronizing, his words can be harsh but Nandini and he both know that he doesn't mean them. He cannot expecially after he told her that it hurts to hurt her or that he cannot live without her.
He was patronzing to her during the first break too, when she opened her heart and worry, he threw a harsh worded challenge at her because he knows she thrives at it. He did the same to her now because she was dejected while sitting on the stairs.
@Rida - As much as we want Manik to ponder, it's letting in the audience inside the head of a complex guy, whose predictability they want to use for future tracks. His confusion is the conflict, so if they give him a moment of clarity now. It won't work. He needs it when they are stable and when he see her how she never left him or believed in him.
so he's supposed to stay confused and grumpy and 'all about himself?' he was still complex before all of that. He always will be.
The trick is to never completely change who he is. And the complexity would always remain.
Like I said, complexity is about subtlety.
Right now, since the last many episodes, they're making it all about Manik and his confusions which frankly gets monotonous after a bit of time.
Everybody likes confusion, but they've been showing him only that and it kinds of frankly hurt you because this guy was one who we used to admire for his brain working all the time. He used to know what ticked whom, what happened where before you even told him. He used to introspect way too much on things and he used to go with the flow with a confidence and sensibility that's rival the best. So constant confusion and indecisiveness does make a character less credible, and i honestly don't even have to prove this part, we see it easily on how people take his words now.
today isn't manik gadha day.
TODAY IS MANIK WILL DO NANDINI IN A POOL DAY.
