The advantage of not being able sign into IF at will is that I have time to process all the news that comes in.
So here goes:
The Malvik marriage is one of the worst twists they could have done for themselves, and that is a given. There is no justification for Vikrant not questioning anything and going ahead with the marriage. And no way should Malla get away with this marriage.
And now he has to rectify this, I hope the makers do this quickly. All the news that is coming in, has no mention of the marriage and how it is going to progress.
All I can see is Manvik are going to work together in some capacity eventually.
When the ARS reveal happened, I thought they have just enough story to complete two months - Vikrant's mom's story being next in line.
With all this confusing news about new entry who will side with ARS, there's a new storyline coming. Fight for power and money , once again, greed and money being the theme.
And I think commercially they have to. it looks like they are trying to create a saga for at least one year, depending on the TRPS. Maybe the channel has asked them.
I kept saying that other shows have tracks every 15 days, whereas Mannat moves at a snail's pace... one track a month. Thursday Friday kind of episodes happen once in a month or between longer intervals. They needed to speed up the pace. And bring in more compelling stories. once Mannat's basic story and Vikrant's basic story is out, what is left?
So we have these business rivalries coming up. In between, their personal stories will go on. I don't want to predict anything, but for now, Mallika's false ONS kaand has to be sorted out. It is unbearable. I cannot watch Mallika and Vikrant together on screen and strictly speaking, we don't see them on screen too much!
But the silence on the BTS says we may be getting Malla Vikrant scenes soon. And we need to. I want Vikrant to clear up his status too. the writers have created this mess, now have the guts to call it out, instead of giving Manvik lollipops while keeping the marriage status quo intact.
. It was a wrong move.
Vikrant's brains should start working on who is cheating him. Aishwarya Aunty made a deal for him to be with Malla, and Malla is now married to him, his brains should ask questions! 
Overall, I am happy for the actors if this new storyline works, because they deserve all the success. A pure love story sadly does not work for TRPS.
