Difference between "mana hona", "mana karna" and "ichcha hona"
Namaskar aur Diwali mubarak ho. Is there a difference in the meaning of these different constructions? For example, do...

Mera chai pine ka mana karta hai;
Mera chai pine ka mana hai; and
Mera chai pine ki ichcha hai

... all mean "I feel like drinking tea"?

Dhanyabhad in advance.

Answer

Namaskar Ciaron, aapko bhi Diwali ki bahut saari shubhkaamnaye`... as far as your question is concerned..
Mera chai pine ka mann karta hai - I feel like drinking tea
Mujhe chai pina mana hai - I'm not allowed to have tea
Meri chai pine ki ichcha hai - I feel like drinking tea
Mujhe chai pine ki manaai hai - I'm not allowed to have tea 
Hope I've made it clear.
