You crossed the line!

DAY 36! - You crossed the line!

He was warned. Not once. Not twice. But numerous times. No one's allowed to talk to her in such a bitter-filled tone. Let alone the tone, the context of the topic itself was senseless. Manik's never questioned her character, her intentions, her decisions himself. Then how dare he? He crossed the line today! Leapt out of the boundary that marked his last chance of returning home. "Enough Dhruv!" How desperately he wanted to control his anger today. He could understand his brother's frustrating pain, his wordless miseries. And so he was willing to forgive him for the first few accusations. But there's a limit to every nuisance. And that limit was crossed today.

You didn't just disgrace your once-upon-a-time bestfriend named Nandini. You shamelessly humiliated the pure character of a woman. You selfishly blamed an innocent individual for your own meaningless blunders. You didn't just pin-point the faults in a faultless girl, you pointed a dishonouring finger upon a girl who means the world to your brother. Don't forget, when you point a finger so harshly at someone, the rest of the four fingers are pointing back at you. You've blundered today. You've fumbled. You've crossed the line!

She is his life, his reason of existence. This breath he seems to inhale every few seconds or so; it belongs to her. The beat of every heartbeat in his chest, whispers her name non-stop day and night. She's the biggest truth of his life and you've sinned to allegedly accuse her for being full of lies. You've lapsed in understanding the purity and value of relationships like friendship and love. She had only ever wished for a lifelong friendship with you. She had hoped to befriend your soul for the rest of her life. But you; so blinded and deafened by your own uncertainties and jealousies have torn apart her dreams of envisioning you as a life-long friend. You have hurt your brother the most today. She is his heart, his soul, his passion, his core. And you have continuously wounded her with your poison-filled speared words. She's bleeding, but the pain is spreading uncontrollably in his chest. "Dhruv! Ab bas! You're crossing the line dammit!" His hope for your return, his wish of being able to reunite with his brother, you've crushed them all today. He had considered you to be the most important part of his life. But she...she was, is and will always remain his life. You hurt her. You crossed your line!

The punch.

It was never his first resort. He was compelled to raise his hand on his best buddy from once upon a time. His friend dearer than a brother; seemed to have ignored all his pleas, all his requests to please...just calm down. With every progressive word, Dhruv's ability to think, to understand, to comprehend started to vanish. And so he was left with no choice. Dhruv had said enough, Manik had listened enough and Nandini...she had cried more than enough. He's let it all go on previous records. His brother, his best buddy; abandoned him so inconveniently. Abashed him with his ruthless taunts. But Manik had patiently listened to every word, accepted his every blame, tolerated his every painful remark. But today it wasn't about him. It was about this girl whom he can die for. And mind you, he may not realise it just yet, but he can become the death of someone for her sake too. She's the light of his darkness. She's the lyrics of his music. She's the smile of his lips and the strength during his weakness. She's the calm of his turmoils. She's the meaning of his life. She's the reason for his heartbeat and the definition of his love. She taught him how to live life. How to love life. And so if the need be, he will sacrifice his life again and again just to see her safe, smiling and protected. This was just a mere friendship. And he crossed the line!

A few days ago, Dhruv stood there so arrogantly, mocking Cabir how everyone seems to have left his side, but today that day seems to have arrived in reality. He has embarrassed his friends, his family; Fab 5. They had trusted his return. Hoped so obediently that he would never abandon their love and friendship. But today he failed them incredulously. "Dhruv...Kyun? Bas kar...ruk ja...mat bol..." Manik hasn't stopped loving him. In fact his pain for his brother has increased today as he was forced to raise his hand on him. He still wishes he could continue to hope for his surprise return somehow. His eyes begging him to just hear his heart and not his mind for once. He continues to plea to his brother to return on the path where they used to tread together once upon a time. He continues to request him to stop transforming into someone unrecognisable. But his brother unheard every word and blindly walked away, choosing to continue to walk towards the daunting dead end that awaits him.

As much as he craves his brother again today, as much as his inner consciousness is drowning in utmost guilt for physically wounding him, his priority will never change now. Nandini. Her loudening sobs need his attention, need his touch, need his caress. She's in pain. Her heart is weeping. Dhruv's hurt her and that's more than enough for Manik to know that he's crossed his line!

Pandiji...you're lucky you weren't the one on the receiving end of Manik's wrath. You're lucky that Manik hasn't yet connected the dots as to who has been fuelling Dhruv's anger for him to behave in such a dsigraceful manner like today. You're lucky Manik hasn't realised that you have in face so demonically crossed your line too. But that moment of realisation isn't too far when he will notice you smiling so blatantly and realise that you were the real reason for his Nandini's priceless tears. You were the true culprit, who has shattered his Nandini's belief in herself for which reason she is endlessly blaming herself for the broken bond between two brothers. You're in fact the true criminal who is disallowing her to believe every word of reassurance that Manik is trying to fill her with. You're the heartless devil who has made her heart and soul weep so hysterically that for a moment she seemed to have lost every ability to understand what Manik was trying to say to her. "Just shut up Nandini! Tum kya bol rahi ho...are you mad? You're not to be blamed...Okay?" You crossed the line!

It's you who has crossed the line because you made it so difficult for Nandini to breathe through her guilt at one point. It's you who has crossed the line because no matter how much he tried to hold her, comfort her, ease her pain; he couldn't because she just kept breaking apart. It's you who has crossed the line because for a few minutes her mind started to talk senseless blames and as much as he tried for her to listen to her heart, the painful shrieks were just way too loud that she couldn't hear herself what she was saying. It's you who has crossed the line because you're manipulating the reality of Manik's truthful love and care and portraying it as his arrogance and wild-side in front of you guru ma, It's you who has crossed the line because you are cheating the one who so proudly claims to have nurtured and perfected you to become the man you stand today. It's you who has crossed the line because you are juggling with hearts of pure souls in order to fulfil your devious needs. It's you who has crossed the line because you are maliciously consuming the trust and faith of the two people who possibly respected and trusted you the most. It's you who has crossed the line because you instigated one brother to cluelessly hurt the other. It's you who has crossed the line because your evil teachings provoked one brother's anger to become the reason for his own bashing.

They've somehow managed for now. He's somehow managed to numb her heartache by enveloping her in the cosy warmth of his long arms. He's somehow managed to assure her that there is nothing for her to feel guilty about by saying; "Tum mere liye kabhi galat ho hi nahi sakti. In fact jab tum mere saat hoti ho na...toh everything seems to be perfect." He's somehow managed to fill her aching heart with a reassurance that he doesn't hold her responsible for any separation by kissing her so adoringly on her forehead and absorbing all the agony breathing inside her. She's somehow managed to read through his false, reassuring smile into the bleeding of his own heart. She's somehow managed to bandage the fresh wounds that have never stung him so hurtfully before. She's somehow managed to fill some relief into the soreness of his soul by dropping a loving kiss on his forehead so he is able to at least breathe amidst all this heartbreak. They've somehow managed to balm each other's sores and share the distressing suffering by just quietly joining their foreheads, so they can rise from this heartbreak and concentrate on their other battles.

But this game that you've started, he promises to finish.

For today you've crossed the line, and as tomorrow will come, he will be compelled to bound his boundary too. Because no line, no boundary, no limit can restrain him from avenging the one who dare to hurt his love, his life, his Nandini.

Here I am. Doing this between classes cause last week I made you wait all week..lol. This week I hope between assignments I can get my 2 cents down so that we may enlighten each other. And you always enlighten me with your beautiful words and thoughts. Your take on the episode adds so another dimension to the episode. You understand what the writers are trying to show their viewers and you break it down perfectly.

Dhruv and Nandini. Two important people in Manik's life. Dhruv is part of Manik's existence but Nandini Murthy, he is his life, literally. This isn't about picking one or the other. This isn't about priorities. This is love. Nandini is the reason for his existence, she is the oxygen that Manik Maltorta breathes. Their love, so pure, so true isn't something he is going to justify to Dhruv. Dhruv is wrong, his accusations are misplaced once again. Manik, today he wasn't angry. Today, he was hurt. Never has manik Maltorta fought so hard against his own anger. Today, he begged his buddy not to let his anger win, not to unleash the bull. The struggle was so real. It was so visible. He was desperate to not to cross a line, not to raise his hand on his brother. He kept warning Dhruv that he is threading on dangerous ground, he needs to stop. And that punch, it was like Manik punched himself, he hurt himself he couldn't believe that their friendship has come to such a sad point that he has been reduced to punching his buddy, his brother. His pain was so vast one could drown in it.

A line was crossed today; a line of respect Manik demands of his friends for the love of his life. Dhruv crossed that line! He has disrespected a woman, questioned her character, and accused her that she toyed with two men at the same time. Disgrace, such a disgrace., Dhruv. Have you become such a man who has no respect for woman ? Will I too far off if I compare you to men like Rocky and the politician ? Because respect for woman really starts from the heart. Disappointment for Dhruv continues to increase. Had Dhruv chosen to spit venom against Manik once again, he would have stood there, let his heart get crushed to pieces but he would have not uttered a single world. But Dhruv, today he has chosen Nandini as his punching bag and nobody and I mean nobody gets away with hurting Manik's Nandini. Even Manik himself. Manik refuses to forgive himself for hurting her so how did Dhruv ever think he could get away with this ? Manik, so defeated he was today, all his hope has been crushed. Maybe his friend will never come home. Maybe, he will never be able to welcome his friend again with open arms. Hurting his nandini is a crime in manik maltorta's eyes and today, Dhruv has committed that crime but Manik still loves his brother, his buddy. So today, his heart bleeds. He couldn't protect Nandini from Dhruv's venom, he couldn't stop his buddy from going farther away from him. So defeated our Manik was today.

Today, Dhruv may have done damage I had feared last week. He picks another victim for the blame game: Nandini. So blind Dhruv has become in his own anger and resentment that honestly there seems to be no hope. His misconceptions have been fueled by the Pandit and today was all about Pandit's attack, he pulled out the big guns. Ams has witnessed Manik at his worst. They say, your first impression is the your impression. The Pandit has managed to paint a rather poor impression of our Manik and Ams like any mother who has her child's best intentions at heart will want her child to stay away from such a boy. Manik will have a hard task at hand to win his Nandu's Ams's heart. He knows how important Ams is to his Nandini. He needs her to accept him, to give her love and blessings to them. And he will face the challenge head on. Really keen on seeing how this will happen after the Pandit has been exposed and the fusion has finally happened. But for now, Manik is the rich, bad boy and Ams will want to keep Nandini far away from Manik. So Pandit gets a point, for now. Today, the Pandit attacked. Tomorrow Manik will answer. He will connect the dots and see how the cheap game you played. And he shall make you pay Pandit. Like I said, nobody gets away with hurting his Nandini and you have caused Dhruv to hurt her where it hurts the most. Her heart. And you have caused her to shed tears, her precious tears that break Manik's heart.

When they hurt, they always find solace in each other's arms. It's the safest place in the world. In pain, they are companions. They absorb each other's pain and sorrows. But imagine the guilt Nandini is now weighted with that her Manik hadn't been able to reach out and soothe her initially. Because she believes everything Dhruv said, "It was me." She now believes the fault was hers. She is now breaks down in sobs because she thinks she broke a pure friendship. Nandini Murthy, who wouldn't even hurt a fly intentionally and here she thinks she has broken a pure friendship, a beautiful bond of love. His words of reassurance can't reach her. Her tears, he wipes her tears but they keep flowing and his pain increases too. How can he reach her ? She has gone off to her own place of guilt where he can't reach her. So he plucks her into his arms and places her on the table so they can be on the same level. He forces her to lock her eyes with his. He needs her to see the truth in his eyes. He demands that she sees herself in his eyes. She is the truest truth is his life. She is his light, his shining star who has pulled him out of the darkness. She is his calm in this noise and chaos of life. How can she even think she is wrong for him when with her, he is at his best. With her, he feels alive, he feels happy. With her, he can be simply Manik. That day, she reassured him he is perfect for her. Today, he reassures her she is perfect with him. With her, everything seems perfect. Imperfect alone, together they are perfect, just perfect for each other.

When Nandini hurts, she can cry it out. Manik can gather her into the warmth and safety of his arms and absorb her pain.The way Manik drew her into his arms today was MY beautiful moment because as much as he needed to comfort her, he needed to soothe his own heart too because he too is hurting. Her tears, he can replace them with a smile. But Manik's hurt, he conceals it. His pain, his hurt, he is so use to hiding it. No one has ever taken the time to heal his hurts before so he saw no point in showing them. Until Nandini. With her, she sees his pain even when he tries to conceal it. So she will hold him with tenderness and kiss the pain away. How she wishes she could take all his pain and hurt away but that can't happen right now. His buddy is still lost, he hasn't found his way home. So she steadies him with her love. They stay connected for a few precious seconds to draw on each other's strength. They heal each other so they can get ready for another battle. The world is against them and now Ams seems to have been misled to join the wrong side. Will the battles be never be over ? They are fighting for so hard for each other right now, that when they do win, when their hope is victorious, when Manik has defeated the devil; their love will be all that stronger.

Umm, I think this got too lengthy but I genuinely struggled today, maybe because the episode was so fab and so well performed by all the actors that I couldn't find the right words today. Actually I need to take a moment to appreciate Uttu, Niti and Parth especially. Parth does so splendid in emoting his pain. Taylor was amazing today too. And Uttu, I have to say is one actor has improved leaps and bounds as a actor and his hard work shows. He matched Taylor and Parth well today.

Okies, now I am done. You were amazing as well my love.

omg Twinkle...HATS OFF to u...u added MORE DEPTH MORE BEAUTY to the rockin epi today..!! truly outstanding...loved readin it

Dude that was bloody brilliant :D WOW WOW WOW!

Beautifully said, your posts always add another dimension to the spisode and this was no exception. Even though i follow them, I never comment on your post because they are so amazing and I don't know what to say , but today I felt the urge... Love the way you described Manik's mindset through each instance... including the ones to come... this is definitely going to be a bumpy week ahead for MANAN & the Fab 4 too... but it's definitely a mess to look forward to. And I imagine your posts will get even more amazing...can't wait!

Thanks 4 the amazin analysis !
