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.
