Mannat Har Khushi Paane Ki: Episode Discussion Thread - 8 - Page 108

Vikrant till now has no way of even having doubt, it's his chacha and family which he is very close to. With the proof initially he did call the police but once that was disfuted it is difficult to blindly support Mannat even if she is the FL. VIKRANT is not poorly written, it's mannats character, she seems to be impulsive, she knew how vile ARS is with coffee incidents and whatever is happening now, but instead of telling vikrant blindly believe me believe me, bobby is at fault with no proof, show us that she has some other plans, give ARS a good check mark,because straightforward way doesn't work, ARS has detectives and connections

1. Secretly get the chain tested,

2. Think of CCTV

3. Talk to derek or dereks friend, derek knows ARS asked him to clean the crime scene

4. Record shalini saying ars is responsible for the coffee thing and blackmail ars ( very flimsy)

Instead of screaming out all your plans openly for ARS to counter it. She should have actually gone to the media herself, showing the proof that way ARS cannot steal it also it will be properly tested, they can't deny this. Throw in a doubt that saluja exchanged DNA.

5. Follow that private detective of ARS find what he is doing, get some deets from him.

So much they can show with ITV flair and make it thrilling, increase the anticipation. They aren't showing the FL investigating, just her talking big words, he is wrong justice etc in every episode but diff location

Yet to see the episode. So based on what I have read here:

Vikrant, an astute businessman, would know what he is suggesting to Mannat is pure blackmail. But in this track he has just been reacting, not thinking at all or leading from the front. As I said earlier, he is playing a second fiddle. After today's episode, I don't think he will do anything until Mannat solves the case. It is Mannat's track through and through -- establishing her as the classic Indian TV female protagonist.

This track has also reset the story a little bit and given them more conflicts to play with, not just a mother trying to destroy her daughter. Aishwarya's truth is not coming out so soon, so her doing more to hurt Mannat at this point made no sense.

They will stretch this track till they can milk it. For them, it is a high-octane track.

It is just the second or the third day after that horrible night. First, she was not sure. When she doubted someone from the family might be involved, she had no clue who? ... Then the passport drama and rest unfolded. It is still the same day when she stole the passports and accused Bobby Saluja.

But I agree she now needs to use her brains and less of her vocal chords.

Honestly, thanks to the actors, this episode was sad at so many levels, Manvik, Shalini, Derek, and generally the way society works.

- Vikrant keeps his condition, Mannat asks him if he is blackmailing her, but he says I am just protecting my family. She once again says that the chain was a false proof. But he is done with her explanation.

- harneet steps in and asks her to agree. She gives SHruti's kasam. With a lot of anger, Mannat agrees.

- Manvik scene, he watches her wearing her earring. And he takes out her bracelet. She doesn't notice him at first, & he looks upset that she has switched off totally. But she sees it, and takes it from him and says it's good, that he is returning everything that would remind him of her!

- Vikrant tells her, to watch her step because the one used to catch her is now far away. But Mannat in a firm, short way, tells him off. She tells him she was sad the day he said he was not her BDB because she genuinely believed he was. But now, the real face, and the mask is clear to her, and she walks off.

- Saluja Mansion- Gagan the only one with sense, tells ARS she shouldn't have arrested mannat because now it will seem like they the 'rich' people got a 'poor' girl arrested, she will get more sympathy. Everyone agrees when malla comes in saying she has a plan and soon everything will be ok. She gets Vikrant's message saying Mannat has agreed. Everyone is super thrilled especially ARS.

- Vikrant is upset, replaying Mannat's words to him, but he is also stubborn and keeps saying, he wishes she would understand him. Neetu comes to comfort him. Poor guy, very proudly says he did whatever he did for his family. Neetu has a sliver of shame on her face but life has to go on?

- Shalini is getting ready to leave when Bobby comes there and takes Adi away. Honestly from this point on, I felt choked as a woman!

Continued next post.

Shalini is getting ready to leave when Bobby comes there and takes Adi away. Honestly from this point on, I felt choked as a woman,

This is not about Manvik, or Mannat or Vikrant or Malla. The enormity of a situation like this and the fact that it happens regularly struck me. if that was the effect Mukta wanted, for me, the effect was emphatic and strong.

- Shalini tries ARS but she doesn't pick up. She comes running to Mannat, and tells her. Mannat tells her she cannot speak to Vikrant because now there's no understanding between them. Shalini is weeping and says she will tell everyone Bobby is the perp, Mannat has to help her to find Aditya.

-Harneet wonders why Bobby has done this when Shalini is going away, and everyone is doing what they want.

- ARS calls back. And when Shalini tells her, ARS says she will bring Adi back but the next day she has to come for a press conference and tell the media that Derek is the perp.

- Cut to Saluja mansion where ROnnie and Neetu act cute and tr to cheer up Vikrant. Everyone dances around him and he remains glum. Harneet and Mannat are watching this on live. Malla does her turn around Vikrant and finally he smiles and starts dancing. Mannat is heart broken that he is a part of all this. And here Shalini's brother has been kidnapped by Bobby.

- New girl enters...Puneet's sister.

The parallel scene of the party and Shalini in Mannat's house was horrifying to me at least. So many cases that we read about came to mind, and I really really felt sad.

I'll be fine..I'll be back...i''l go cheer myself and watch Lost, with its chindi drama about sarees and food etc. This hit badly today.

Bobby ke beti ko kidnap karo

Press conference will be another fiasco

I actually watch it straight for 1.5-2 hrs sometimes at night.

You should watch post leap episodes also. They are not bad barring 2-4 cringe episodes. Watching the show without social media noise is a different experience.

Bold, brilliant so Vikrant does what ever Malla tells and reports back to her

From what I could get... he wants her away and Malla tells him to use Shrutis name... Malla says a line and they focus on ARS "Mannat apni Maa ke liye kuch bhi karegi" 😑
