Next day...

Maan is ready and is waiting forGeet...

But Geet is not at home...

Maan gets angry for he had toldher to be ready by 10 am...

And this girl has forgot itcompletely and Maan is even more angry for he had been waiting for this for along time...it's been many days since their Hoshiarpur visit and they havn'tgot a chance to go out together...

And this stupid girl doesn'tunderstand Maan's feelings and his yearnings...

Poor Maan, he had to controlhimself for he doesn't want Geet to get affected and hence get distracted fromher studies...but this girl is so stupid that she won't understand him evenwhen he openly flirts with her and expresses his love for her...

Maan is not good at expressing hislove and Geet is very bad to understand anything easily...

Babaji only knows what's in storefor their love...

Maan finishes his BF and keepswaiting for Geet...

Dadi: Maan bete, aaj koi meetinghai kya? aap itne jaldhi tayaar ho gaye?

Maan: nahi Dadi, par koi aur kaamhai

Dadi: aap lunch ke liye tohaajayenge na?

Maan: patha nahi Dadi, mein lunchke liye wapas aatha ya mein lunch ke badh hi jaatha

Dadi: what?

Maan: ye Geet kahan hai Dadi?

Dadi is so excited...so Maan istaking Geet out...on a date? Balle balle...

Dadi hides her joy for she knowsMaan would drop the plans if Dadi talks about their relationship...

Dadi: Geet toh subhe subheshopping chale gaye

Dadi thinks Maan wanted to takeher for shopping and Geet has gone alone...

Maan: shopping?

Maan gets angry...

Dadi: kya hua bete? Aap Geet kesaath jaane wale the kya?

Maan: nahi Dadi, Geet mere saathaane wali thi, kuch zaroori kaam hai, hummare naye project ka, aur ye ladhkisubhe subhe shopping chali gayi? I don't know when she will become responsible

Dadi is disappointed...KC kakaam? Patha nahi ye Maan kab apne kaam ko chodke bahar ke duniya mein aayenge?

Dadi wants to save Geet...

Dadi:  aap hi kehthe haina ki Geet abhi bhi bachihai

Maan: iss ladhki toh mujhe pagalkardeghi

Maan becomes restless as he islosing his precious time that he wants to spend with his Mishti...

But his Mishti doesn't evenbothered to inform him about her shopping plans...else Maan would have takenher for shopping too on the way...

That would have been so muchfun...and Maan would have got the chance to gift her something...

Now when will this girlreturn...Maan keeps looking at the entrance...

He is getting impatient and hisanger is raising high...

Dadi has to cool him down... orhe will start shouting at Geet again...poor Geet, kam se kam aaj toh Maan sebachke rahegi...

Dadi: hare bete, aaj toh Sundayhai, Geet ko kyun pareshaan karthe hai aap? aap ka kaam ko aap hi sambaliye

Maan: par Dadi meinne toh usskokitne bar samjaya ki aaj ussko mere saath aana hoga, aur ye ladhki toh kabhinahi sudhregi, jab dekho apne manmarzi karthi rehthi, dusron ke baat ka koikadar hi nahi kaas karke mere baton ka

So Maan wants Geet to giveimportance to him and his words...that's a good sign...dadi ishappy...but what about this girl? Why doesn't she take Maan seriously ?

Dadi calls Geet...

Dadi: Geet bete aap kahan ho?

Geet: Dadi mein aashram mein hoon

Dadi: aashram mein? Wahan kya karrahe ho beta? Maan toh yahan aapka intrezaar kar rahe hai

Maan: aahsram? Geet aahsram chaligayi?

Geet: Maan sir abhi tak ghar meinhai?

Dadi: par beta Maan toh aap keliye wait kar rahe hai

Geet: sorry dadi, unse kahiye kimein aahsram pohunchgayi hoon

Dadi looks up to inform Maan, butMaan has already left...

Dadi warns Geet...

Dadi: Geet bete, Maan bahut gussemein hai, sambalke beta

Geet: ye DD toh hamesha gusse meinhi rehthe, aap fikar mat kijiye Dadi, mein sab sambloongi

Dadi: all the best beta

Geet: thanks Dadi

At the aashram...

Geet has become friends with thosegirls...

She had bought them chocolates andsmall gifts, girlish gifts, bands, ear rings, bindis and othergoodies...whatever Geet could afford from her pocket money she gets fromdadima...

Maan just becomes a mere spectatorand he keeps admiring his Mishti thru out the day...

All the girls like their smallgifts and they love Geet very much...

She is just like one of them andGeet tells them that she is also dependent on Maan for her studies and that sheis lucky to be here studying...

She says that babaji will alwaysshow you the path if you are willing to fight for your life, your rights thoughyou are a girl just like Geet...

The girls are inspired by herstory and they wish Geet successfully graduates and settles down in a goodjob...they also want to dream,  andwork hard to make their dreams come true...

They now know that they are notthat unlucky for they have a place to live and the little oppurtunities tostudy and stand on their own...

Geet is very happy that she couldbring a smile on their face and give them hope...

Maan then wants them to have alook at the plans for they had come for that only...

Geet had come early and joinedthem for BF itself...

The food was good but they hadproblems with water...

The tank was empty and girls hadto carry water in buckets for cleaning and also bathing...

Geet felt very bad and she decidesto tell about this to Maan...

Geet: Maan sir

Maan: hmm Geet

The girls keep looking at Maan andthey have noticed him staring Geet...

They know that Maan likes Geet andthey start talking among themselves about it...

But Geet doesn't seem tounderstand this...

Geet: pehle inki water problem kosolve karo

Maan: sagarji ye kya keh rahi hai?

Sagar: haan ji, yahan pe pani kiproblem hothi hai

Maan: aap ne borewell lagaya kya?

Sagar keeps thinking...they don'thave that much money...

He is silent...

Geet: inke paas itna pasia hothatoh ye aap ki madat kyun mangthe?

Maan calls Adi immediately...

He arranges for the borewell...

The girls are very happy...theythank Geet...

So Geet came early and has easilymingled with them and they have told her their probems without anyhesitations...had she come with Maan they wouldn't have opened up somuch...haina?

Maan had to appreciate  Geet...

Maan looks at Geet inadmiration...

Geet shows them their plan andasks them their suggestions...

They girls eagerly surround herand join the discussion...

Geet explains them every detailand Maan keeps watching her...

She is so concerned and caring andshe considers them as friends and not any strangers...

They like the attached bath ideaand also the study cum recreation room...

But they don't know if theydeserve all these luxuries, for these are unnecessary burden on their budget...

The caretaker Mr.Sagar also feelsthat they can't afford all those luxuries...

Maan agrees to finance the wholeproject...

The girls clap to appreciate hiskind offer...

Geet then thinks that they couldmake it big as there is no budget as such now...

Now they can think about thelittle luxuries too...

First thing that comes to her mindis the cold water bath in Delhi's winter...

She tells Maan that they can gofor solar heaters...

Maan likes the suggestion and hefurther proposes total solar power...

That way they won't have themonthly bill burden...

Then coming to the terrace, thegirls want that to be converted into a working place...

Where they can help earn a bit forthemselves...

They have learned sewing and theywould like to have a sewing unit to stich their own clothes and may be earnfrom their sewing skills...

Geet likes that idea and sheimmediately supports it, she says she'll help them start a little business oftheir own...

And the baking team asks for alittle baking area where they can bake their own breads and cookies and sellthem in the local shops...

Everything decided Maneet leavewith satisfaction...

They promise to come and meet themevery weekend...

Maan is the happiest person for hecan spend the weekends with Geet now...
