She knows from his conversation that Dadi has forgiven him and is coming here...

Geet: Dadi aarahe hai?

Geet hurries and takes her duppatta from him...

Maan holds it back...he looks at her...

Geet blushes...

She gives a romantic look...

Maan toh fida ho gaya...he looses his hold and Geet snatches her duppattta and leaves...

Maan: kahan jaathi ho Geet? Rukh jao, Dadi aathe hi honge

Geet: aapko dadi se maafi mangna haina? Aap dadi se baat karo mein badh mein aathi hoon

Geet chale jaathi...

Man bhi Dadi se akhele hi baat karna chahtha tha...

Isske samne kuch bhi bolega toh ye ulta seedha jawaab dethe rahegi aur Dadi ko confuse karegi...

Dado comes...
