Hey CC or should I call you Adhira? What would you prefer?

You can call me anything as long as you are not giving me gaalis, I am known as Cat, Catty, CC and Adhira😆

First of all, I love the informality and personalization of your review/recap.. it gives the feel of a friendly conversation and that's nice😛

Hehehe thank you, I like a lot of humour in real life, so I write like how I am in real, unless I am doing a serious analysis.

I really liked Niti today.. her body language when speaking to Dhruv was so open n friendly, her usual sassy self..While with Manik she was stiff and awkward.. she could barely look him in the eye.. This clear contrast came across so sweetly n effortlessly all in the span of 20 min.. 👏

This, she really has improved a lot I feel, the last few epis, it has been pretty noticeable. Like I said in my response to Shelly, with Dhruv, its all platonic, so no awkwardness, while with Manik, she's like Peter Parker going Spiderman, her senses are tingling and she has no idea what to do about it.

Regarding the Alya-Dhruv conversation, I don't think Alya would've been this supportive of Dhruv's crush if she didn't have a vested interest in it... Rather she'd have advised him to forget that 'commoner' as am sure she thinks of Nandini as beneath them socially..
This is one of the biggest reasons I can't ship them.. Alya is too shallow n self-absorbed (atleast now) which is not necessarily a bad thing.. merely a product of her experiences so far.. It's just, someone as fragile as Dhruv needs someone more sensitive n understanding in my opinion.. But let's just wait n watch.. coz people and equations can always change so am keeping an open mind..

I don't know if I ship Alya and Dhruv, honestly speaking, unless I see more of them together but I just get the feeling the CVs want to take that route. I could be wrong though.

I'm definitely looking forward to Navya's makeover.. that would be a highly entertaining track if nothing else..

I want Navya to get a reality check and this track if it does that, I would be delighted.

I love how Nandini's integrity is not selective.. If she was honest with Manik about the spying then she also came clean with Harshad (I know this will create major issues later) Still, this is why I admire her character so much..

You know what when I saw that part, I was slightly annoyed but what you said is true, this is who Nandini is, she is honest to a fault and she will continue holding onto her integrity as much as others around her try to use her and lose theirs in the process.
When Manik said "bright and sparkling clean" I wondered if he was talking about her face or her personality.. Afterall isn't that how he sees her.. As 'HIS' bright n clean, pure person😳😳

I'm sorry if my post isn't very coherent.. most of my thoughts on the episode you have already echoed.. so these are just my random ramblings😆

Coherence is subjective and I thought this was lovely, please do come every day, love reading opinions.

Thanks for letting me hijack your post CC 😃

😆 Manik is a man of his word. 7 am meant 7 am😉. On a serious note though, the idea of being alone at home (read dysfunctional) did not appeal to him last night. SPACE academy after his rendezvous with Nandu seemed to give him much needed respite.

It kind of really makes you wonder doesn't it that what kind of home does Manik have, that a cold hard staircase at SPACE seems to offer more comfort. Manik's backstory is going to be very interesting to say the least.

I love how you pointed out the significance of Nandini smoothing out his brow, an implicit promise to not let anything affect him negatively in the future, that she'd always be here for him

She brings the light into his dark world, she is going to smoothen out all his worries. Metaphors galore, another reason to love this show😆

Navya is a lost cause at the moment. She is so one-dimensional in her approach towards her life / passion which is saddening to see. Mukti's sharp words of wisdom haven't had the desired effect. She is still her stupid, superficial, cursory self. One needs to be sensible, independent, ambitious and comfortable in one's skin for starters, please someone beat it into her head! 🤢

I think harsh reality is coming calling for Navya very soon and it will punch her in the face.I am so ready for Navya's heartbreak.

Mood swings eh, Raghav!

Raghav was an ass today, plain and simple

The former is older, more cynical (probably faced rejection and hatred from close quarters and society as a whole). I understand his reluctance in coming clean but his younger lover, he wants to fly, wants to be fearless in professing his love. Isn't love also about being each other's support? This relationship track feels real, there are no more rose-tinted, wind-blowing through hair (madhoshi type) sequences but real issues that need to be handled sensitively by both parties to reach a balance. I wish they sort it out, some give and take to reach a consensus.

I dont have an issue with his cynicism as much I had with him cold-shouldering Cabir, sit and talk out your fears instead of making Cabir feel wretched especially after the effort he has gone to make your birthday special.

Highly unlikely. Nothing else exists in her line of vision at the moment except her relationship with Manik (she is ready to throw Dhruv into fire). Which close friend would do that? She is obsessed in her own little ways just like her brother is hell bent on destroying Fab 5.. Harshad's statement is very telling, this girl has and is fixated on Manik. 😡 Honestly, I'd be surprised if she has an epiphany of sorts at this point 😲 Don't think she will go down without a fight. I liked how Dhruv pointed out to the sudden attitude change (goody) towards Nandini.

Loads of people need a reality check starting with Alya. I just wish she wasnt made this archetypal scorned needy ex. People are friends with their boyfriend's and husband's ex in real,why can't we see it onscreen?

Friend zoned yet again

Totally friend-zoned

*makes frustrated and Don't care face towards Navya*

😆

Dang! That mop of hair ! How much hair product does this guy use??😲

Seriously that was a good test of anti-gravity right there.SAY NO TO THE POMP.

Our new and improved monster Manik looked longingly at Nandu (the back of her head) before she spilled water on herself (he scares her too much these days eh.. 😉)

Longing, Manik and Nandu are entwined, so much longing😆

The game of 'who's gonna blink first' has commenced between these two. He calls last night a mistake but his eyes tell a different story. Did anyone notice how he tries to gauge what she's feeling before he blurted out that statement (because he thought he sensed awkwardness). Nandini looks crestfallen when she hears him (she knew she felt something last night) but is still confused / muddled by these new found feelings. Manik, I think wanted some kind of sign, no matter how small, that she is just as affected as he is, that she is also experiencing strange, new emotions just like him. They both sense that something has changed between them, the wind has shifted, there is palpable tension and super awareness.. But who will blink first remains to be seen.

It has to be Manik who blinks first, has to be ...bas thats all I know.

Her words of wisdom, struck the right cord as usual😉 for they apply to everyone at SPACE, her included. Notice the smile on Nandu's face once Manik walked away ? Like she has begun to process her untold feelings for Manik as well.

The smile was also because Manik's care made her feel special again, how beautiful is this vicious cycle,he makes her unhappy, she makes him unhappy, she makes him happy, he makes her happy
