Genie kp nush nice discussion!😳

I saw the episode. In the whole week yesterday's was the best one in terms of story and also editing. Atleast i wasnt scratching my head trying understand how on earth did we get this scene after that:P
Ohh n i am surprised mtv actually for once gave this week ka episode this week itself.


@Bold: Completely agree! Probably the best episode this week and I feel like the story did move ahead.😛

Let's hope it keep moving. They better make up for this week in the next week!

Keep all the sideys away and focus on this track please. If a character like Mukti can get so many chances , they need to invest IN NANDINI ALONE TOO."

@Red: Personally, I don't mind if they bicker because that's very natural in a relationship when one is having a difficult time. Arguments are bound to happen.
Nandu is having a difficult time and she is bickering because she is not ready to confront her demons. She is not ready to talk to Manik about it, so she is bickering with him.
I can see her finally reaching her breaking point with her next week - now that Manik has involved Ams as well.

@Blue: Yes, please! Invest more time in Nandu. Let this track be all about her. Don't make a khichdi out of it!


@KP- Dude, I don;t mind their bickering because it's not pointless , also it's so them, thats how they have always had a banter during every conflict , so it doesn't seem jarring to me. Problem is thats all the screen-space they give Nandini- no focus on her trauma.or her own self. Which I do think the last two episodes have hinted . They are setting up Manik and Amms cornering her for a break-down because Amms doesn't allow Nandu to make excuses.

But apart from that give her a dialogue with Cabir and make sure that becomes a regular thing for future too. Navya will do too. Also Amms need to chat with her normally too .

Raghav-Cabir, Nandini- bas three stories that need to be sold . Nandini should be given maximum screen-space next week , because this week she was shortchanged and next phase needs more of her.

Last 3 weeks they have shown us that Aryamaan is smart, free agent, might flip on Harshad. he has had one meaningful convo with Cabir and another with Alya. Bas, yet he is all over my screen- Why? They are unnecessarily reiterating his smartness to me which I don't see how will contribute to the story.

@WH- This one has better editing and atleast saved the track somewhat. Both Wed/Thursday episodes were good .

Such an interesting and thoughtful discussion happening here (but then again, Firefly is here so Im not surprised at all! Yet to meet the rest of you lovelies - Im Dee by the way).

I think we're all really deriving the same point - Im not complaining or really disappointed with the episodes yet because while things aren't moving for MaNan, I think the writers seem to just been really lost with how to take this BUT having said that, the last episodes are heading towards a breakdown for Nandani. I am SO excited for this!

But before that, I need some more of Nandani. This is the same girl who has really introduced this world to us - it is with her eyes, and her thoughts. Why haven't there been any monologues of hers yet? I need her to talk to herself, to someone else, to Aiyappa because I WANT to get inside her head - Her trauma, the struggle she is facing and just so much more. This bickering does hint at it and with Manik and hopefully Ams cornering her very soon, Nandani will let it all out...Give us that!

Im keeping my fingers crossed for this track to take us one step ahead for Nandani, for Manik, and their relationship. They have gone through A LOT and all of that needs to be in a way "summed" up (probably not the word but I want to see them have a conversation, something more substantial...where they just look back and tell each other how far they've come...). I guess Im just missing them lean onto each other, their usual stairway conversations. But Im not complaining about their recent scenes either, Im liking them. Just invest a little more into Nandani and I'll be able to sit back and just enjoy this show.

P.s. - I really liked some bits of Niti's recent interview on Drivetime by the way (yet to listen to it completely) but she gave some insight into Nandani's feelings right now and I just want exactly that to be shown to us too. She said how at this point, for Nandani, she just wants to stay away from everyone, even Manik, the guy whom she loves but because she doesnt want to hurt him or ruin something in the heat of all this, she is getting away from him, to rediscover herself...find herself, again. She said some more stuff but I liked how Niti phrased this - It was simple yet meaningful...perhaps hinting at a confession from Nandani's side too...Hmmm

@Bold: Exactly, you said it all. They only bring Nandu onscreen to bicker with Manik - which I don't mind because like I said, arguments are part of our daily life. However, when a character only comes onscreen to bicker and there is nothing else she is doing, that's what is doing Nandu all this harm. They are not giving her any time ALONE. I really loved that scene at night where she is staring at the fireflies and reminiscing over her time with Manik during that confession night. They need to show more scenes like that.

God! Don't get me started on Aryaman. There has been way too much Aryaman these days. He is all over the place - with Arya, Harshad or Cabir. It's like he is more important than Nandu - I like Jotwani and all, but I am not that interested in Aryaman as of yet. Sure, he is smart, but that's it. To establish him, they are shortchanging Nandu/her track and I can't enjoy that. I am more invested in Nandu and MaNan; so when that gets jarring/choppy because of other reasons, it just annoys me. Sorry, this might be blunt, but that's the truth.

My Dee , is here, My Firefly - 🤗

This please all of it!!


@Bold-She needs "Alone" time, sharing her fears, thoughts, aspirations with herself/Aiyappa/anyone-Let us in her head now!! Last few bits have hinted at it but please this Nandini moment where she just talks aobut herself is very important.

@Blue- Yes!! KP and I were talking about how this week lacked that one solid MaNan moment where they both just talk. Another break-time, just them chatting, not conflicted but there for each other. Just a little more time, effort to Nandini and that be all.

Honestly, I have no idea what they are doing with Aryamann.
At this point, I don't even care because all the other characters should be used as subplots to Nandani right now. Im not undermining them, but this entire Mlore track should be used to help Nandani get over the recent happenings. Harshad and Aryamann are so annoying to watch right now.

Im pretty sure the writers are also just going with the flow when it comes to Aryamann - they'll decide once the story proceeds on what exactly to "do" with him. He might just be simply used for Alya till Dhruv returns or as a co for Harshad till Manik kicks Harshad out again. Its just all very confusing but I just try to ignore all this since MaNan should be focused upon right now, especially Nandani. Have her come on screen more than just for bickering.

She's grown up in Mlore, spent most of her life here, there are memories associated with this place - let her revisit them and connect them to her present. Have her go to her favourite place or something - where its just her and nothing else, some place where she derives her energies from, some peace etc.

Since you guys be talking about Nandini I wanna say som things.
Okay..I know that they cannot bring in a new friend for Nandini or they can't just suddenly make MuLya Nandu grow closer,but What About Navya?!
Instead of using her for comic relief is it that hard to use her for voicing Nandu's inner feelings?!
I think this is the perfect time they can give us a very strong girl bonding between NavNi the way they gaves us MuLya during that Mukti crap.
They can make Navya to see Nandini's uneasiness,make her share things,comfort her. As much as I like CabIni..we know Nandini cannot share such things with a guy. I don't know but they hardly use NavNi bond in the show.The last time it was NavNi comforting each other. Can we not have them together?! Can for once Navya be the catalyst to Nandu's inner trauma.
I wish Abhi was here...but the same thing..He is a guy.
He was the best friend Nandu could have had for herself and only her.

Goodmorning everyone.
Hey Dee!
CooChi here!

FIREFLY HIII 🤗 - You are once again taking over my heart. Your words be LOVE! (Im hoping all of this is being trolled!! Hasn't the KY2 team contacted you yet to become a creative?!?!).

I told you na, Im going to be here now (for a month till I come to India for another month, and then off again. Life! :().

& that SOLID MOMENT. You have NO IDEA how much I have yearning for the same. Im literally looking out for once every time they come on screen - I actually thought we would have gotten one at the guest house, that night under the stars but that was too short and words were barely exchanged, even their silence didn't do it for me.

But yet, BREAK time - EXACTLY THIS! So needed right now - Have them both just space out everything else and lean onto each other. Both of them so could use that right now - For Nandani to tel Manik that she's coming around, and for Manik to know the same and tell her that he's going to be here for her, waiting but she just needs to talk. If not to him, then to herself, and then ask for that break because who better can really understand her? Anyways, I should have just ditto'ed @bold because you said it all!😆.

Hello I'm back again. Lol

When the show started we saw things through Nandini now we're seeing it through Manik. But considering this is Nandini's track we need more insight into her. Yesterday and Wednesday were going in the right direction so I hope that next week will be better with no filler episodes.

The bickering is fine because that's always being their thing and it's not like it's unwanted through it we're getting a bit more into what Nandini is thinking.

Nandini doesn't have any one apart from Manik to hold on to Navya is always with Fab5 and everyone else are Manik's friends. She doesn't have anyone for herself and that is really harming her. They should have worked more on NavNi from the beginning now it's too late so at least build her bond with Ams or make her talk more with Aiyappa. Just make her talk.

And editors when she is talking please don't screw up the sound.
