Hey Sabah and Jess really well said.

Sabah i still don't get that scene, why does Nupur say insult, okay she might be actually she was just kidding but then why is he so dumbfounded why didn't he take it as a joke too, i still don't undertstand that scene and esp Mayank's reaction.

I want to not only remember him but also bring that reserved Mayank back, that light nupur with fun yet a soft, loving and sensible side back, the real MN back sigh i can never give up can i?

Senny, hun, Nupur asks him if he is taunting her or praising her.... (taana mar rahe ho ya tareef karre ho).... she knows he is praising her and trying to cool her down... but she wants to trick him with her reaction. When he says whatever you like.... she says taana(taunt).... that confuses him.... he knows Nupur likes to hear praises... so he is dumbfound when she says she likes his taunt.... and seeing his reaction Nupur says.... yehi expressions dekhne the muze by God... and laughs... she tricks him and he fell for her silly trick.... that's why she laughs....

heyy this is Awesommeee post.. Loved it.... :-)
you are just toooo goood

pls pm me whenever u update next

''SHILPA AUNTY. Who made being known something of a 'mummy's boy' a compliment, a badge to wear with gratitude!''

minus this adorable combo of shilpa aunty and her Mayu..... rest of the mom-son pair i've come across on tv can be called 'over the top dramatic' with no real feelings , understanding, privacy and this amount of respect....
the mom son moments truly had been heartwarming....be it their arguments or teasing or their unique way of caring for eachother.



''I think every Mayank fan did a double take! What did he just say?!!? I did not know Mayank came in a sweet version! Does not every girl yearn for this? That their love have a special side, part and even smile that they keep apart only for them, that no one else can invade upon or ever know except his cherished ones; that keeps a special place in his heart which is only reserved for them? ''


that is the depth and realness in mayank's character that i otherwise miss be it in books/tv/movies........he does not wear mask yet guards his emotions well from the world and only his loved ones get to see his vulnerable side ....
aww...i love the comparison you drawn with Mr Darcy's character....infact these have been my thoughts too since i started following the character's growth ....(you can call me Darcy fanatic since i in love with that character since i read P&P for the first time many years ago.... same as Mayank holds a special place in my heart for the uniqueness of his character)

wonderful post....i just read the first page ... but could not wait to read the rest before answering.....do continue😳

My Dear Friend Sabah,
Thank you so much for writing such a wonderful post.....i read it last night but couldn't reply....but reminiscing those old moments left me nostalgic!!Thanks for cheering me up with your post once again!!
@Jess,Senny,Mou.....and Sabah....all of you have written so well👏
I don't know what more to write.....i'm short of words and neither can i write with the beauty that you all do.......but let me try and add something from my side...............

SHILPA SHARMA........a symbolism of the modern woman today......she is a single parent,works hard.....at times keeps quite busy with her job.....but she always had time for her only son....Mayank.....aka Mayu!!! Single handedly she raised him to become what he is now.......she inculcated all those values....to respect a woman,work....be caring and humble......and everything in her son.....she has been his support always.....whenever Mayank needed her,she was always there to guide him......
She is an easy going woman,she knows perfectly that life needs to be enjoyed but she knew her son was yet to learn that....and she was glad that her son had met someone like nupur!! At times,i found so many similarities in her and nupur......! She tolerated Mayank's anger for she knew her son inside out....she knows what he can do and what he can't......she teases him....she knows he'll get irritated...but she also wants to teach him...that in life one can't always be serious....but in matters such as the marriage of mayank and nupur.....she displayed her disappointment too at the way mayank had handled the situation....she very patiently requested bauji and was handling matters so well.....she accepted nupur with open arms....but also made it clear that they needed to study first,build their career........!

MAYANK SHARMA........the sadu,sarcastic guy.....very different from his mother in many aspects....one wonders why that serious self.....maybe he had seen his mother go through various hardships and now he wanted to do well just for his mother who had done so much for him!!!!Though,a very sorted out person,(he has gained that quality from his mother)....there were times when he needed immense support.....whenever he was to take an important decision,he would first consult his mother......she calmed him down....gave him her own perspective in an unbiased manner.....at times he didn't tell her directly what the problem was,he just wanted to speak to her....it gave him courage and strength to move on....(the scene when he talks to his mother ,when he learns about Nupur's marriage) Mayank is a momma's boy.....he himself has been a great support for her....he understood she was feeling low...when she lost her job....those scenes show us so much of the caring child that mayank is.....he couldn't see his mother like this....he could see her getting tense,worried and for him she was most important....more important than anything or anyone....he didn't care about his love and the problems at that time...he only knew that his mother needed him...!Maynk,known to handle difficult situations,perfectly,ina cool,smart way....learnt it from his mom!!

The relationship that the two shared is so wonderful....amazing!!

It was always so much fun to watch Mayank and Shilpa aunty's interaction.....always got a smile on my face......😊.....from teasing her Mayu about a girl (i have to say,it was just so amazing!!!she wanted her kid to atleast have a girl in his life....have some excitement in his life!!! LOL,remember her constantly telling him about her friends and their son,with their gfs??!!!).....to the famous.."maa,balon ko mat choo".....(she didn't want mayank to just be a perfectionist...she wanted him to have fun!).....to the "mere young kaan,aise adult battein nahi sun sakte"...and him getting embarrased and angry......to him trying to hide his feelings about nupur from his mom....and her understanding it only too well....rather she understood it way before...during the first holi sequence!!!.....to that proud Shilpa aunty,when her son had just confessed his love infront of all....to the caring,understanding mother..telling her son to fight back his love!!.....to that little interaction at their bangalore's house!!!.......him hiding his poem for nupur....and she trying to read it.."ma,kya kar rahi ho??....."aajtak teri cheeze nahi check kari...kyunki tune mujhd=se kabhi kuch nahi chupaya!!....yeh kya hai??" ....to their discussion about his poem......her asking him to go to nupur and say this poem to her......those times when she scolded him about his behaviour to nupur....or her melodramatic ways........"main hoo na"......the diwali scenes........................this can never end......thier relationship can't be decribed even if i write thousands of words(maybe i can't write it well)........we can only watch and say...........everything that i wished to say......is here in this VM that i found....all credits to the makers...i'm sorry couldn't ask their permission!!

hey sabah!

@smile843

Let me paraphrase Mayank, if I may, 'when she (or such beauty) is before me, inspirations just flow….'

Seriously, the beauty, wit and love encapsulated in Mayu/Shilpa Aunty moments is so breathtaking and heart warming, it is my honour to submit such a post, which I created with much trepidation and humbleness, as I understand the respect their have garnered in everyone's heart.

@Dolly18

Dear Dolly no problem. I intend to have the next update sometime over the weekend.

@nanditasingh

I am do glad that you commented. I love reading your posts, I love your dry wit! Thank you so very much.

"...i love the comparison you drawn with Mr Darcy's character...."

If he had just been a carbon copy, it would have been 'nice' to witness, however Arjun, the creators and other actors, (for do not their reactions, interactions become part of the whole persona of Mayank?) created a whole new awe inspiring character.

I love P&P, but my all time favourite Jane Austen book is Persuasion. Captain Wentworth may not live up to Darcy/Mayank standards but he has his own charm!

I also preferred Jess' take on that scene. I think if we had never scene Mayank/Shilpa Aunty moments, Mayank Sharma the sweet boyfriend would have become an incorrectly fitted puzzle, but seeing Mayu, the puzzle makes sense.

"the CVs really have no clue that they have taken out a big chunk out of the very soul of Mjht by keeping Shilpa aunty away"

She was the highlight of every episode she appeared in. She was instrumental in Mayank's development. As were other wonderful and strong female role models, CJ and Tamana Mam. They directed him towards betterment and encouraged that 'shy' Romeo or as we call him 'Mayu' inside of him, to find courage and express himself.

Can I encourage you to write some ff or even thoughts of Little Mayank and Aunty Shilpa scenes or even post Nupur scenes? I would love to hear people's varying hopes and dreams for these wondrous characters.
