Maan then rushes to see Geet...

Waise Geet abhi tak soyi nahi hai...

Geet toh thoda upset hai...kuch soch rahi hai...

Apne parivaar ko bahut miss karthi hai...

Maan: Geet

Geet ko abhi abhi patha chala ki Maan aaya hai...

Kissi aur din hotha toh Geet Maan ko zat se pehechaanthi...

Geet: aap?

Maan: kya baat hai? jab se shadhi ki baat shuru hui hai tum toh bahut udaas lagthi ho

Geet: aaisa koi baat nahi hai, mein bahut kush hoon

Geet Maan ko pareshaan karna nahi chahathi...

Pehle hi Maan ne Geet ke liye itna kuch kiya haina?

Ab Maan bas Geet ko kush dekhna chahatha hai...

Geet tries to smile...

Maan: joot, mein bathaoon ki tummare mann mein kya chal raha hai?

Geet pareshaan hojaathi...kahin issko sab patha chalgaya hai kya?

Geet: aap ko kaise patha?

Maan Geet ko aur pareshaan nahi karna chahatha...

He tries to cheer her up...

Maan: yahi ki shadhi ke din kaunsa kapde aur jewels pehenna hai? sare ladhkiyon ka yahi sabse bada problem haina?

Geet laughs...Maan aaisa bhi baat kartha hai kya?

Geet: nahi nahi, par meinne toh ab tak usskke barein mein nahi socha

Maan: hare Geet, meinne pehle ki kaha ki tum zyada socho mat, meri Dulhan ki kapde aur zavar toh mere pasand ka hi hoga

Geet: kyun? Shadhi mein woh sab aap pehenenge?

Maan: lekhin Geet, tum toh ye sajna wajna mere liye hi karnewali haina?

Geet: yahi toh aapki galatfami hai, hum toh photograph ke liye hi itna sajthe hai, warna iski kya zaroorat?

Maan: achcha

Maan gets closer...

Maan: tumne sahi kaha Geet, tumme toh koi sajawat ki zaroorat nahi hai, mein toh aaisa hi

Maan gets even closer...he then looks into her eyes and then her lips...

Maan: Geet...Geeet

Geet shuts the door...

Maan thode dher bahar wait kartha hai...

Geet ko patha hai ki Maan abhi bhi wahi hai...

She opens the door...

Maan: mujhe patha hai Geet, tumme bhi neendh nahi aayi haina?

Maan tries to get in...

Geet stops him...

Geet: aaisa kuch nahi hai, aap ab chalthe bhi ho ya nahi, aaise bahar kadhe hokke security banne ki koi zaroorat nahi hai

Maan: kya?

Geet: haan

Maan pulls her and kisses her gud night...

Geet: gud night...

Next day...

Maan ko KC jaane ka mann hi nahi kartha...

Geet bhi saath nahi aathi toh Maan ko bhi wahan koi kaam nahi chaltha...

Waise Geet bhi yahan akhele beitkke bore ho rahi hogi?

Aaj mein Geet ke saath rukhjaatha hoon...

Maan apne sare appointments ko cancel kartha...

Adi bhi Amritsar chala gaya...

Ab KC mein zyada kaam bhi nahi hai...

Maan goes to see Geet...

Geet: aap? Yahan kya kar rahe ho? office nahi jaana hai kya?

Maan: nahi, aaj meinne chutti leli

Geet: waah, apna office hai toh jab chaho chuti lethe ho? yahi hum chutti maangthe toh kitne sawaal karthe ho?

Maan: Geet, tum union election mein kadhi hothi toh zaroor jeet jaathi

Geet: haan, mein bhi wahi soch rahi hoon, aapko sambalna hai toh aaisa hi kuch power chahiye haina?

Maan: usski koi zaroorat nahi hogi Geet, tummare samne toh mein powerless hojaatha hoon

Maan: are you sure? Tum kudh karloge? Mere bina?

Maan is not ready to leave...

Geet: hare, jao

Geet pushes him out and locks the door...

At the shop...

Shadhi ka lehenga choose kar rahe hai...

Geet looks at all the pieces...

Geet: aur kuch hai?

Maan stares...

He has already decided what to get for Geet...

Maan: Geet, humme sirf ek lehanga lena hai, pura dukhaan nahi kareedhna

Geet: aap thode dher intrezaar nahi kar sakthe? Issiliye meinne kaha ki ye ladies ka kaam hai, aap issko hummare paas chodho, lekhin aap toh sunthe hi nahi
