Awww...WHAT?

I do see where you are coming from. I do feel bad for her top, but I kind of think she brought this upon herself. She was kind of pushing Manik towards Nandu. If she had just let things go, then Manik would still be hers. But because she is making a huge deal, Manik is getting upset. I'm not saying it's totally her fault, but she does play a part in her issue.

The thing is she has full right to ask about these things because clearly whatever is happening between Nandini and Manik is affecting their relationship. She did push him to the wall initially because she hasn't experienced the changes that are happening within Manik and she rather than dwelling deeper into them considered Nandini as the focal point- not wrong though, because Nandu indeed is the one who is bringing the real Manik out and about.

It is sad to see the way how both aliya and Manik have had different takes on their relationship. Manik does care and adore her but it is perhaps more because of their friendship and habit.Whereas she has based her life around him. I do think she also loves the idea of them together more than him . Somewhere her behavior reminds me of Manik with Dhruv, he was also insecure about his friendship because of Nandini, he needed that assurance to be at peace with the idea of their friendship. Aliya needs some security inorder to rest her insecurity which unfortunately even if Manik tries but cannot provide. These are youngsters who have always preferred hiding or running away from their issues , its actually a good thing that because of Nandini each one will introspect .

I really loved your post. I liked the way that you analyzed their relationship. I'm saying I totally agreeing with you, but I see and respect the point you are trying to make. Excited to see what you think in the near future. :)
