The air hums the old tune,
And yet, you kiss my forehead
And linger near my eyes,
Stealing the dreams I tried to hide
As Visible to you as
my vague, wispy emotions
As delusional as the memory
Of those unresolved nights
When you held me
With your pain-etched voice.
I hold your words to my heart:
Tangible, meaningless babble,
Written to make me laugh
And yet, more precious than any other moment
Of you and me:
They are mine
As they are yours.
Aren't these words like
Leaves that change colours?
Indelible and yet fading
As they blow through eternities
That we have not yet touched,
But these marks:
I touch these words to my lips,
and breathe you in,
While you smile,
Exchanging your scars
For another lingering gaze

No words 👏

People are constantly cribbing about lack of substance and stagnancy in growth, not properly executed back story and side tracks, and they are absolutely not wrong with that, but they fail to realize that to build the building again, foundations have to be strong.

Why did Fab5 ever started breaking apart? Individually they were weak? yes. But was Manik strong enough to be the perfect foundation for years? No. he was unstable too. he needed that one jerk too.

Why couldn't Nandini save Navya on time before Harshad ruined her life? Because she was weak too, in judging people.

The thing is, even though the show is all about friendships and complications, Manik and Nandini are foundation. They are pillar to two separate worlds.

In first 70 episodes writers worked on breaking the whole building and shaking the foundation.

Writers changed.

New writers worked on stabilizing the foundation so nothing can move it but passing it through many weather and heat test.

Writers changed.

The new writer will once gain go back to build and building more beautiful and stronger than before.

Thats how the show is working. Patience is the main key. Agree, these hundred episodes have been slow but again, its growth not change and growth takes time.


@ When I FF scenes, it's not because I am not seeing growth in the characters or I am running out of patience. I am seeing that each of the characters - be it Dhruv, Aliya or even Mukti - have evolved. It's absolutely wonderful to see how far they have come along and that even with MaNan being the leads, each of the characters have been given separate tracks to give justice to.

Unfortunately, I did loose my connect with Mukti because of Abhi's track. Again, I am not saying this is because of only because of Charlie's acting; that was part of the reason, but it is also because of what they were trying to show with Abhi never connected with me. Anyways, that's all done with and I am going to give her a chance again with Harshad.

Navya - same; pregnancy was fine. I was looking forward to her track with Cabir when they moved in together as roommates. Unfortunately, nothing really came out of it. Her mom's presence just made everything OTT.

I am not complaining that the episodes are slow and neither have I really complained about any of the tracks that they have shown so far for MaNan. Be it Soha or Pandit.

That being said, the writers have done a tremendous job of weaving the present with the past and paying attention to even small little details in the story so far (atleast for MaNan).

I WAS STALKING and a few pages back I saw MUKTI ABHI...
THIS WAS ONE TRACK I WANTED TO HAPPEN IN A PROPER WAY..

SO MUCH MATTER IT HAD..
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THINGS IN DEFENCE OF ABHI AND WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BASH MUKTI!

ABHIMANYU
So much was there in his STORY..
His individual story was very intriguing for me..

He ran away from his house ...faked his death...for what???
EASING PAIN..SPREADING HAPPINESS!!
^ ONLY TWO THINGS HE COULD DO FROM/IN HIS LIFE!!

Such Nice character sketch!!
Writers should have focused on his SIDE of STORY then..
Individual Story!!
He was a crazy cheesy guy ..but very perspective...observant he was!
See his first convo with Nandu!
He was a COUNSELLER without a degree!

FRESH CHARACTER..must say!!
Completely opposite to Mukti character!!
Sensible in true sense!!
He never wasted time...Soo fast...!!
Always there for people...not friends..PEOPLE!!
Nandini and him were a NICE EXAMPLE OF A GIRL-GUY friendship build up ...plain simple friendship!!
HE ALWAYS USED TO PLACE MANIK'S STATE OF MIND OR MANIK'S POINT IN FRONT OF NANDINI..just the way CABIRA used to do in front of MANIK!
NANDINI AND HIM ...they were not best friends..but TRUE FRIENDS...he was never there to be permanent...but he actually made some permanent changes in MANANS life...good changes ofcourse...!!

NOW COMING TO THEIR LOVESTORY
I THINK IT WAS ONE SIDED LOVE..
I ACTUALLY HAVE SEEN GUYS LIKE ABHI FALLING IN LOVE AT THE VERY FIRST SIGHT...BUT...MUKTI????!!!

IT WAS NO LOVE!!
She saw someone who is suffering...she found that mutual ground called SUFFERING..thats it...
she started POOR BABYING (if thats a word) him!
There was no love...
The guy was fond of her..
He loved her in my opinion
otherwise...who could have fallen for a girl who doesn't have a single clue about herself..who hates herself?!

IT WAS ALWAYS HIS LOVE AND HER SYMPATHY!!

Coming to the acting thing...

I THINK ZAIN WAS BETTER THAN CHARLIE...ALWAYS!!
HE WASN'T OTT in his scenes!!
Check out his simple scenes..you will find right amount of cheese required for his character!
He was a bit off in Emotional scenes...but thats ok cos no other actor except PARTH NITI can do an emotional scene brilliantly!
But...I think he was perfect to play Abhi!!
I personally thought his best scene was in the doctor's cabin..the first time we came to know about him dying due to cancer...
The Way he is speaking...
'New treatment ho old treatment ho..ya no treatment at all..koi farak nahi padta...its all the same'
He was soo nice there!
It was simple..the revealation of his condition was not overdramatic..and ZAIN was nice there!
The thing is ..he just never got the chance to GROW as an actor!
His screen presence was good as well!

OK THIS IS GETTING LONG..I'LL WRITE MORE ONLY WHEN I FIND SOME1 talking about MUKBHI..
COZ YOU KNOW
I LOVE DEFENDING ABHI AND BASHING MUKTI

Hi CooChi 😳
You're awesome, kay!
Abhimanyu was a character I was very into initially, or I should say his equation with Nandini was very was what made me like him.
As a character he could've been compelling too, but they never played it like that, he was always either there to be Nandini's sounding board or Mukti's one true louu 🤢.
His INDIVIDUAL story like you mentioned had potential, but I don't think the writers were ever planning on focusing on that. He was brought in at first to be Nandini's friend and make her realise she cannot stay away from me Manik, then they started focusing on Mukbhi crap and I just lost interest because the execution just fell flat.
Mufti's love for him I never bought cause it was just pity for the dying guy who made her laugh a few times, but Abhimanyu's love I couldn't buy either cause like you mentioned Mukti was just a shell of a person at that time. And it's okay to love someone broken, but you've got to know them beneath the surface too which none of them ever did.
Lol I think the only think I ever liked about Mukbhi crap saga was that he was a distraction for Mukti so she could be in her own little world and not interrupt MaNan and I could FWD her scenes peacefully 😆.
Also the running away from home, to save his mother from pain I never fully connected too either. Cause his intentions maybe right but it just doesn't work like that.
Cain's scenes with Niti were always nice, and Parth too in their minimal scene, but Zain and Charlie as actors bought out the worst in each other I feel!
This is getting long too... But yeah defend away 😳

HI ... zara right?! 😳

You are awsome tooo!!

I totally understand your point of view on not buying ABHI'S love for MUKTI!
I RESPECT THAT!

But...I always have the concept of ONE SIDED LOVE in my mind when I think of MUKBHI! (minus MUK)

The writers are at fault here..they never wrote anything for ABHI...but I could understand from his character that he loved Mukti...not as much as MANIK LOVES NANDINI..but yess...he did..he could see Mukti's inner broken girl..he wanted to fix her...thats why once he asked her to tell HARSHAD and hers story!
The thing is...He never intended to make her fall in love with HIM..he wanted her to fall in love with her LIFE..with herself...he wanted her to know that she is BEAUTIFUL..not only her body...her soul is BEAUTIFUL..he wanted to stop her from sympathising with herself...hating herself...
He always used to ask her 'Do you love me?'
Not because he wanted them to be in a relationship...but because this gave him hope that his effort to fix HIS BROKEN GIRL..the girl he loves..are not wasted.
He wanted her to know what is LOVE!

Ohh m getting emotional for ABHI!! 😆

And about the MILKHA SINGH STUNT he performed...even I did not like it cos it was wrong...they should have focused on this as well...
We could have got a nice AbhiNi scene here..cos NANDINI and him were always good and sensible towards each other!
But I m sad...They did NOTHING!!

One more point is..I LIKED THE CUPID ABHIMANYU..MORE THAN BIRA..

WHY??
I never wanted them to show CABIR having no story of his own!
As much as i liked him playing the cupid for MANAN i was sad there as well!!
I SAW MANY VIEWERS LIKING CABIR JUST BECAUSE HE WAS THE CUPID!
HIS INDIVIDUAL TRACK GOT LOST IN THIS CUPID TRACK!
AND NOW..WE CAN SEE WHERE HIS TRACK IS LEADING!
Cabir -Navya...i liked them initially...Their first sensible convo and the RJ thing caught my attention..but the...FAILURE!
AND NOW...

SINCE HARSHAD IS BACK..CAN SUNNY SHARMA GO ALREADY!
I don't want any useless character in this show!!

HARSHAD IS THE REAL DEAL!
HE IS LOVE FOREVER!



On side note..
NANDINI is going to get another blow..when she'll come to know about ABHI'S death!!
One more death for her!!!
POOR GIRL!

CooChi,
Yup it's Zara 😳
I understand what you mean by one sided love too, but this line:
"but yess...he did..he could see Mukti's inner broken girl..he wanted to fix her...thats why once he asked her to tell HARSHAD and hers story!"
Wanting to fix someone broken, shouldn't be the only reason to love them right? Isn't that pity? Just a different kind than Mukti's pity for him!
I guess I could buy it better if they had shown a little more development and substance from both sides. Also I fast forwarded or didn't pay attention to Mukbhi most of the time so I'm probably not the best person to discuss their stuff!
Maybe the CV's were planning to develop the character more, but everyone lost interest with Abhi cause of Mukti so they probably didn't bother anymore.
I liked Cupid Abhi too 😆
And Cabir to became a cupid later, most people liked him way before that! And I think they were doing a good job of Cabir's individual track with the RJ Bira thing and him maturing, but this Sunny track is just WRONG WRONG WRONG!
You're coming on the show today right? Please tell them no Cabir-Sunny 😆😆😆
Actually NO SUNNY PERIOD!
CANNOT WAIT FOR TONIGHT!!!
