Nandini's tears are not stopping, Manik tries to pacify her after seeing her cry.

Manik :- before today, I don't care for anyone who is crying except my grandmother. I feel so bad to see you like this. Please stop crying.

Nandini looks at him. Manik takes out his handkerchief from his pocket and gives it to Nandini.

Nandini :- thank you.

Only Manik, Nandini and the driver were in the car.

Manik :- tears don't look good in such beautiful eyes.

But Nandini is still sad.

Manik :- Manik if you're really sad, come on, I will drop you ur home.
