Typing on the IPad, so will have typos, please bear with it.😆

What an episode today, hats off to the writers, we pretty much growth in all the characters, Harshad, Dhruv, Manik accompanied by some big revelations.
Harshad finally made me happy by apologising to Nandu, while it's all justified in wanting to bring down the fab5, I wasn't too happy with the idea of him using Nandu as a pawn with nary an apology and while he still retained his greyness, atleast he was able to tell Nandu sorry.

Harshad, manik, dhruv were childhood friends and something happened to render them all apart and the friendship asunder. But it's quite evident that even Harshad retains some fond memories of their childhood and that he is affected by it. I am glad to see this growths because until now he was quite one-dimensional to me other than rescuing Mukti and fighting for alya.But even then I did not get any great affection but today I felt he was quite emotional about his friendship.Like someone mentioned, Nadu is going to be the one to repair the relationship between them all and I guess they will all be one big group in the end.

Dhruv was uncomfortable about the closing proximity of Manik and Nandu and his conversation with N and his subsequent comforting of Nandu added an extra dimension. But what impressed me more, is that despite bearing uncomfortable with Manik and Nandu's equation, he felt it was important for them to sort their differences out, his jealousy did not get into the way of him being practical, both Manik and Nandu are important to him. His relationship with manik is beautifully written. I did complain I didn't see any organic growth in dhruv and that he has been too passive for my liking so I especially liked this active dhruv who sat down the 2 people who matter to him to talk.

Manik's growth was more a self-realisation of sorts even if he is till to put a name to what he feels for Nandu. Harshad pushes Manik's buttons as usual but there was an interesting dimension to it, seems everyone knows Manik wants to be known as the villain. What causes a young lad to want to identify as a villain than a hero. Infact it reminded me of the soliloquy from Shakespeare's Richard III, where he says since he is a villain in everyone's mind, let me be the villain of the people. Poignant and despairing all at once. Manik will take some time to understand what he feels and I am fine with that.

As always Nandu will be the catalyst for all the changes, she asked why she was at the centre of all trouble because Nandu that is what you are a catalyst, everyone's life will be changed for the better because of you. I guess like in the precap they will all be one big group, not sure about Shahid but everyone else.

Cabir and Ragahv do have something going. I love LGBT angles but here Raghav beings teacher and having something going with Cabir is kind of icky to me personally.

That's it folks, more later.

'Band of Brother'=SUPER INTERESTING
Dhruv-Manik-Nandu= I'm really hoping there is no love triangle..I hate them. I'm glad that Dhruv is conscious of MaNan proximity, and making them make up.
Cabir-Raghav=Same...I don't know what to think at all...😕

@CC With you on Harshad, so happy to see him showing the much needed clarity and growth. It makes him real and relatable. He misses Manik and the bond they shared, but there is real hurt, pain and much more.
Dhruv finally showed the much needed push , yes he is affected by the Nandu-Manik equation but he values their friendship more. he just wants them to sort it out for his sake. I love their precious friendship but Manik and Nandu are frustrated and they need many more confrontations to get the pent-up tension out.

Manik is getting aware of his changing behaviour around Nandu and that is frustrating him while Nandu is just tired of Manik's looming shadow around her. She knows he means no harm but the consequence of their association is draining.

With you about Raghav and Cabir, I would have been all about the but for the teacher-student thing. Also I feel since they are making it so obvious , i feel this might just not be the link between them.

Nandu and Manik , they both are far down the road. They need to understand and accept the turmoil for once and stop resisting it.

I agree it was a very interesting episode with some good character growth.. I am interested to see what happened between Harshad and Manik he must really love their friendship because when something big must have happened between them he took it hard and is on the destruction path which makes me believe that Harshad is a very interesting character written down by the makers.
I feel that Cabir - Raghav's relationship is something much more we all are assuming it be a romantic alliance of sorts but it could be something else, the cv's are unpredictable so would love to see where they take this..

I have a feeling that the 3rd person is not dhruv coz till now no conn b/w harshad and dhruv is shown... There were only two scenes and in both the scenes harshad irritated dhruv to irritate manik.. Also if the 3rd person is not dhruv the may be he is the main reason b/w manik and harshad's fight.
Also I dont think neither of them did bad to the other it must br some misunderstanding that caused this hatred b/w coz at the end of the day both of them are not bad people and loves people close to them...
Just like manik is obsessed with nandu harshad is obsessed with his hatred... He is good to nandu and cares for her as long as manik is not concernd..

I stumbled across this serial quite by accident especially coz im definitely not in the right age bracket. But this story has me glued to the telly at 8 pm (after snatching the remote from my unsuspecting 5 yr old might I add). Even more impressive are the analyses on the forum. They are so tantalising, mature and insightful especially from young girls, im amazed at your clarity and astute observations. At your age I was so unsure of myself and its so heartening to read all your synopses. A special mention to you, lostmymusic and shelly.
The part about Richard 3 ...brilliant!!!!

I chose the name after reading your post. I have been reading your analysis regularly and silently. But Richard3 made me join today. Im still trying to figure out the reply and quote bit in the forum. Are you an English Major?
