I am burning up (high fever with flu) and yet dancing, jumping, celebrating..what?? So much!!! The reunion of two best buddies (and yes they are the best of buddies...no one dare bring mistakes between friends...it happens), or the fillumy ishtyle re entry of the one we love to hate...Harshu Bachchu...or the dhishum dhishum that our boys did with elaan and panache...or the best...yes...the total band bajao of the Psycho Pandu...(the bonus it promises to continue tomorrow)..or the victory of love and hope on the horizon (statutory warning...tomorrow I will be spilling more gibberish in this forum..I promise to be totally insane unless I am hospitalized 😃)!!
Get better soon, Eveline. The forum needs you. If with high fever and flu, U could write this, we definitely need a healthier U!!
Just feel euphoric...happy...a feeling I just realized I had missed for a while!! You know when you are on a diet and abstain from chocolate cake...you tell yourself its okay..the low carb sweet biscuit is equally good...yup...and then you get to take a bite of the cake...and your diet goes down the drain as you gobble up the whole piece of art!! (I am famished...as you can see😆)!! Precisely that kind of pheeling...we had missed this...the heart warming buddyship between Monster and his gentle Soul!! Those big smiles...those heart to heart hugs!! The two hands that symbolize all that's beautiful in this world, love, friendship, comradeship!! And we had missed seeing so much more too..like fab 5 in one frame...man...we were starved!! Re Bhaiya ALL IJ WELL!!!
Yes.. am sure, most of us here were dancing in our minds and screaming with joy. I am not sure, there was ever a soap, where the audience felt this jubilant with the reunion of 2 friends. But such is their friendship. IT ACTUALLY DEFINES WHAT TRUE FRIENDSHIP IS!! I felt like I was reuniting with my lost best buddy. Such is the impact these characters have created in us.
It took some doing, and it did feel dragged at times...but the bringing back of the two mates...Awesome!! A well planned and executed track...why?? The reasons for Dhruv's bitterness and venom were totally logical, the circumstances that led to it, totally feasible and his reactions or rather over reactions...absolutely empathizable! Yes, he was wrong, but he had his reasons!! And what happened, had to happen, it was a must...the air had to be cleared, somethings had to be painted on the wall in black and white, some equations had to be changed coz they all were growing up...and the process continues!! With time people change, their mentalities, thoughts, attitudes, sense and sensibilities, all evolve and so should their relationships!! Relationships...be if parents, love, friends, siblings...all change and mature with times, with our perspectives!! Don't believe me...just look at your life through the prism of honesty!! So, winds of change affect one and all, some gentle, some stormy...some cool breezes, others twisters of whirlwinds...but change is the only constant!! One learnt how to not feel shadowed, the other learnt how to let the other bask in the harsh sun!! One friend learnt how to hold on while the other learnt how to let go!! One buddy learnt how to protect what is precious and the other learnt how to stop protecting what is valuable!!Not to mention, one learnt to take responsibility for his words and actions, the other learnt how to shed unnecessary burdens!! And Manik and Dhruv just reinvented their friendship...Congratulations!!! That feeling...when he offered him his hand and he finally accepted it with his whole heart and soul...the firm clasp...the tight grip...the never to let loose now cementing of their fingers...inexplicable!! Such a relief, such a joy..such a bond!! ❤️ And something tells me, such mistakes will never be repeated again...you see some lessons are learnt the hard way and so are never forgotten!! Ask the price Manik and Dhruv had to pay for this...bichaare kitna pitt gaye!!😆
Completely agree with you. However irritating Dhruv must have been in the last few weeks and tested Fab 5, Nandini's and our patience, his actions were totally understandable from an objective point of view. He was not in a state to decide Right Vs Wrong. He was going through various changes in his life, as you mentioned. Dhruv has been introduced and shown, as the shy, quiet, calm, composed, back-seat guy. Yes, he was the ONLY one with the capacity to calm Manik, when needed, but his general attitude was that of an 'introvert'. Maybe that is is his nature. Or has it been because of the lack of confidence and sleeping insecurities he had of himself. It could be due to his attacks, that he thought he was NOT good enough and has remained as more of a shadow to the rest of the team. Remember, even when he started to have feelings for Nandini, he was not brave enough to voice them out. Various reasons: 1) Manik's hatred/ dislike for Nandini (or that is what he thought) and 2) concern about his attacks and if he was good enough. Remember that scene, when Manik and Dhruv have a chat about this and Manik had to reassure him, that he would make the BEST (the scene where Navya mistakes them to be 'gay'). Unfortunately, his confidence has been further jolted when Nandini clearly turned him down and stated they would be friends forever, but nothing more. Even before his proposal was turned down, he was shown completely caught up with his new evolving feelings and how Manik would react to him.
And then came Alya. Guess, the most important turning point was when Alya was quite reluctant to let the rest of their friends know about their relationship. We then started noticing Dhruv going into a shell, all his insecurities surfacing. He felt cheated by both Manik and Nandini when he got to know about their relationship. So, is it wrong to feel that way? It isn't- these are all human emotions. And we get better with age, with maturity, with understanding of things better and able to perceive things better than just at face value.
All these are a part of growing up. U r absolutely bang on- I'm sure all of us have been through this roller-coster of changes/ emotions and the way we have dealt with them Vs dealing with them now.
Harshad...Harshad...Harshad...!!! Never in my wildest dreams had I thought that I would be welcoming The Jerk with such gusto...but honestly..i was busy strewing roses from my hat and singing mera piya ghar aaya o ram ji...(Navya and Mukti take a hike)!! His entry scene with Mukti...and the song selection...the best!! The expressions...perfect!! He came, he saw, he conquered!! He sucker punched all with his moves!! Again, KY2 proved its uniqueness in creating a villain, so much welcomed and loved by many. Well, its now time to wait and watch, if he is the same Harshad or has he redeemed?
Loved the way Harshad disappeared...adds some mystery to the element..well done!!
Hmmm...about Cabir...Sherwani ya Suit...the guy is still hung up on the dilemma...the only difference this time it might be for his wedding...Oh God some mercy!! 😃
😃😃 What a turn of events and see the evolution of Navya's and Cabir's relationship. He was the first one, to call her 'Madhubala- Black and White' and now he is willing to do, anything to protect her. Their hug (or rather Navya's) in the previous episode was so sweet.
Coming back...Nandini's constant calling, her worry, her restlessness...so well done!! SHe was on tenterhooks...totally on the edge!! At times, we feel the inexplicable weight of some doom lying in store...she felt the same...a bad feeling that just won't go away!! Aww...he left her a gift..sho sho shweet!! Such a warm feeling, knowing that the Monster will always surprise his star with such small yet big gestures throughout life!! He is just the kind of guy who loves giving surprises to his girl and shower her with love and she is just the kind of girl who loves taking them all in, absorbing and appreciating all his adoration...such cutie pies!! (seriously I need a gift too...a safety pin..a pin...a needle...anything will do..😆)!!
We all do, Eveline !
Her reluctance, her hesitation, her total panic when the announcement was made and he was missing...so telling!! He is her life, her dream, her song, her rhythm, her music, her success...she cannot sing without him!! She simply can't...that's what Manik is to Nandini!! Remember the day the album was going to be recorded and Manik could not sing without Nandini...closure!! Now their love has reached such a stage that even music cannot be made without the other!! Their dependency, their reliance, their total submission...such progression!! Who says twists and turns are unnecessary in a love story...of course...they are needed coz each mishap brings them closer, each tragedy, makes them stronger, each misunderstanding, makes them wiser!! Such a journey...from Musicana to Fusion!! Back then, he left her for others, today he fought the whole world to just be with her!! And she too was ready to believe the worst about him...today nothing can shake her conviction, that he will come!! Their love has new shades, novel depths, undiscovered definitions and unexplored horizons...tomorrow...another milestone!!
Totally true. We see many a love stories. But MaNan, they are sure to leave a mark. So beautiful to watch them. It like we are seeing our babies growing up and revel in their growth.
Pandit and Nyo...🤣!! Mommy Monster loved rubbing salt in his wounds...way to go!! Yup...your baby...Your Manik...never ever disappoints!! Be it his love, or his friends or his foes...he deals gorgeously with all!! Her pride, her gloating, the happy gleam in her eyes when her hell raiser stirs up trouble...superb!! She knows her son...and knows that when he sets his mind to something...God Help!! Her words, too little, too late...You Don't know Manik!! He hates to lose...he is born to win!! Pandit tu toh gaya!! Proud Mommy...just a word of caution...your troublemaker is going to make your life a living hell by the end of the day...you see...even you don't know Manik!!😆
Yes, Mommy doesn't know her Sonny, Manik either. It'd be worth watching her expressions at the end of the day!
The final scene...the climax!! How good did that feel...how happy we all were!! Cheering all the way...I had a grin the size of North America pasted on my face...and nothing can wipe it off!! Its supposed to be so clich...how the good wins over evil..it should be boring by now!! But each time...every time...the pleasure of seeing the bad guy lose...priceless!! Pandit's slow realization, that he was losing it ...all...👏👏!! His cornered look, his disbelief, his pride and over confidence, slowly draining...his struggle to come to terms with the fact that he was not as smart as he thought...his trying to get a grip on the fact that the tables had been turned royally on him...Awesomastic!! His sinking ship when he saw his nemesis Ridhima in front of him...done so perfectly by Dishank!! Manik's countenance, his devilish pleasure, his cool confidence, his unruffled attitude, the introduction of his ace...left me speechless!! This guy knows how to win, its a boon, a given, a habit!! Manik Monster Malhotra...whatever be the beginning...he will always be the end!!
The icing on the cake...the cherry on the top...arrey the whole cake and the table it was on...was the moment when all friends...all super six confronted him...like a wall !! A wall of love, friendship, trust, unity...we stand tall and stand together!! One for all and all for one!! One of the best scenes till date...and when faced by such relationships, such bonds...no evil intentions can ever succeed!! They just won't let anything wrong happen to any one of them...life may throw the world...but when you have such good friends...you care a damn!!
Yes- absolutely. 👏👏 to the CVs, script writers and everyone behind the scenes. ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE. They haven't forgotten this so meaningful dialogue of Fab 5. Or can we now call them Sexy 6/7?? 😛
P.S...Tomorrow...I will kill one and all by my super long, super nonsensical, super idiotic post...Beware!! ( I was told there were 24 hours in a day...Science has it all wrong...they forgot to mention at least a couple of zeros )!!
Cant wait for that Eveline. And once gain, U need to get better for that.
Anupamaa
