Nandini's sensibility and the way she deals with situations, it's truly commendable. She knows the art of using the right words at the right time. The way she spins her words, they do their work so wonderfully. Her message to Navya was exactly what she needed. She reminded Navya of her ambitions. Navya was the one who dreamed high and used to work to get there. Then she just stopped doing that. Nandini didn't say anything new or unique. She just reminded Navya what she should do and it was what she always used to do - strive harder to get there. I liked it how Nandini didn't take Harshad completely out of the equation. She knows that Navya is far too obsessed with Harshad to stop thinking of him and Nandini might not approve of that but she respects that. That's the kind of respect I guess we all want from our friends.
Raghav and Cabir shared a look. STAPH. Don't do it. That look. Shit...my heart is turning into an official shipper. Na karo yaaar! I know it's not the case but the way Raghav looked at Cabir, with that guilt and sadness...urgh. Stop it Maisy, think of something else.
I love the way Chachi is with Rishabh. Ri doesn't talk but his family understands him so well. It warms my heart. Chachi is a phataka..I love this lady! "Tu bhi bilkul apni Chachi ki tarah dheet hai!" 😆
I keep saying it but Manik pagal hogaya hai. Today tou Nandini even questioned him 🤣 Their scene was hilarious. God! I can't believe the progress they've done. From fighting like animals to bickering like kids...OTP..you please me. Manik is stuck by his own stupid promise to not be with Nandini. He wanted nothing more than to go her directly and talk to her. But kudos to him for finding sneak ways to get what he wants. And Nandini was so adorable! Making faces and silently praying for him to go away. Aaah..did I say I love this MaNan? I am pretty sure I have 😆 Nandini always points out the obvious flaws in Manik's logics and he has no answers for them, ever. Which makes him resort to loud voices and repeated warnings of, "Stay away from me." Arey dude, she's always away from you. It's you who finds endless bahanas to talk to her 🤣 I'm sorry, I can't stop laughing at the scene 🤣
Chachi remembers Manik! Manik really didn't know how to deal with her. Can't blame him. The guy has like zero experience of dealing with parent like people who are gentle with him. I guess only Cabir's mom is one such figure in his life whom he respects and likes but since we've never seen it, can't say anything. But Chachi and Manik discussing "Nandu"...adorable! Chachi might turn out to be the biggest MaNan shipper in the show 😆
Uff..they brought back Manik's first tortures. Did you see the super discomfort and guilt on his face when he saw the pen in Rishabh's hand? Ri is still scarred by that experience, he totally did not trust Manik. One of the initial mysteries of the show was touched on again. The connection between Dhruv and Rishabh. I'm guessing the pen reacted seeing Dhruv's star? Or Dhruv itself? Just what the hell is it?! God, please no alien bullshit. But it's all so intriguing. The scene I always wanted to see, got that. Manik tending to Rishabh. It seems like Manik has taken a theka of carrying the Moorthy siblings 🤣
Navya comes at the last moment and just...no. I refuse to believe that performance happened. Seriously music department? KOI MIL GAYA?! How is that rock?! How is that a song people from this generation will choose to perform on? Yaar...why? This is the biggest blunder from the music team yet. It sucks because usually their song selection is so apt. Also, it doesn't seem like Navya had any change of character. She's still as obsessed with Harshad as she used to be. Fine, I can deal with that. But can she PLEASE put her music above him for once? Just slightly above would be alright but PLEASE. Do it Navya!
Mukti is worrying me. She's taking too many of those pills. And then Alya's secret might just come out soon..it won't take them long to realize the coldness between Alya and Manik. Secrets are Fab5's worst enemies and they just keep piling up. Manik is completely caught up in tending after Rishabh and the one person he wants to connect to the most isn't picking up his call. The Manik who never takes music lightly has forgotten all about it. I kind of liked it how Manik couldn't soothe Rishabh down perfectly. That's Nandini's part. I kinda don't like the notion of Manik caring for Rishabh as Nandini does. But then, he has cared for an elderly lady having such a stroke before but even then Nandini was there. What I'm saying is, Ri should stick to Nandini and Dhruv to Manik when it comes to strokes like these. I wouldn't like an exchange of any sort.
Precap - now THAT'S an apt song selection. "Manjha". Amit Trivedi's music. That's what Indian folk music is people.
(this has to be the lousiest topic I've ever mind. I guess my mind is the one which is the distracted one here.)
