Geet goes and meets Dadi...

Dadi is happy to see her...

Dadi: good morning Geet

Geet: morning Dadi

Dadi: hope you had a good nights sleep

Geet feels little awkward and gets angry with Maan to have taken her to OH instead of KM...

He could have seeked Dadi's help...dropped her home...

But with the condition she was Maan better didn't...

Geet: oh haan

Dadi: what's the matter beta?

Geet: woh kuch nahi Dadi

Dadi: you won't even share with your Dadi?

Geet: nothing like that Dadi

Dadi: from the first time I met you I knew you are different and something is always bothering you

Geet: but after meeting you and chatting with you I learnt al ot Dadi

Dadi: then why didn't you come to me beta? I may be confined to the walls of this place but believe me even now my voice has a wide reach,don't underestimate the power of this old woman

Geet: I know Dadi, but I didn't want to trouble you

Dadi: I am always looking forward to help you, I consider you my family, don't you?

Geet doesn't know what to say...she just goes and hugs Dadi...

Geet: thanks Dadi, I always felt at home with you

Dadi: now what's the matter?

Geet then narrates the whole incident to Dadi...

Dadi understands her plight and wants to help her...she is proud of Geet for her guts to stand up against injustice...

Dadi consoles Geet as she battles hard to control her emotions...she can never forget Channi...how could her own parents forget her like this?

Dadi promises to help Geet...she says even Maan could help them in this...

But she knows Maan wouldn't want to take up such a case...still they have to give it a shot, maybe he'll do it for Geet...

Dadi feels that it would be better if Geet personally seeks his aid rather than Dadi playing a messenger...

Dadi: why don't you meet Maan? He should help you, you know he has this soft corner for you and that's why last night too he saved you from that accident, you better be careful next time beta

Maan made it look like an accident to dadi and Geet is also happy to stand by his version of the story...she doesn't want to make a fool of herself telling the truth about her misunderstanding Maan...she was always skeptical   about the men in Delhi after Nirbaya and other cases and the way Maan roughed up with her that time and she couldn't think otherwise...there always has been this sense of possession about her and he over reacted at that time which mislead poor Geet...

Geet: but dadi

Geet doesn't feel confident to seek his help...

Dadi: he'll be in his office now

Geet: ok dadi, I'll go and see him

Maan's office is in the OH itself and when Geet  enters he could see only men...

Maybe Maan only appears in criminal cases...maybe he is the right one to handle her case...

Geet meets Adi there instead...

Geet: Adi sir?

Adi: Geet, welcome to our office

Geet: is this your office?

Maybe Maan is training under Adi...

Adi: Haan Geet, what are you doing here? Did Dev sir sent some files?

Geet: no sir, I came to see your junior, but now I think you can help me

Adi: Manisha? Where did you meet him?

Manisha enters...hai baby

Geet is confused...: who is he?

Manisha: I'm Manisha, but how did you come here? You are not supposed to come here

Geet: what?

Adi laughs...ha ha ha ha ha ha

Adi: relax Manisha, meet Geet,she is Dev sir's secretary

Manisha: oh you came here by mistake, come I'll take you to Dev sir

Geet: but I came to meet Mr.MSK

Both are terrified on hearing his name and a girl calling him by name...

Manisha stops her...shhh shhh shhh, aaise nahi

Manisha looks back and is relieved seeing that Maan is not at office...

Adi is laughing...ha ha ha ha ha

Adi: Manisha, Maan sir has gone out

Manisha: thank god Geet, you saved yourself

Adi: Geet, I'll come to KC if there is any issues

Geet: but it's nothing to do with KC

Adi: then why do you want to meet Maan sir

Geet: I have a case for him, by the way I don't think he has any other client except KC, poor Dev sir has no other choice

Adi: I think you are still Ms?

Manisha: then too we don't take up wife's cases, we serve only the husbands

Geet: what are you talking about?

Adi: we handle only divorce cases

Geet: what?

Manisha: we only get freedom for men, this is a save men club, you are at the wrong place baby

Adi: for some reasons Maan sir appears for men in divorce cases as he believes that they are the victims of many women protection laws

Geet: but that's strange, if I could I will put all the men behind bars

Geet meant it seriously and that scares the two...

Adi: relax Geet

Adi has a little experience having discussed a lot with Geet...

Manisha: you have mistaken baby, not all men are bad and specialy not all women are good

Adi: he's right Geet, we have seen it

Geet: but the majority of the men are bad

Adi: do you think we all are bad guys

Geet: no no Adi sir, but you are some of the few exceptions,men are either evil or they are cowards

Adi: but Geet why would you want to meet Maan sir

Geet: I think you are right, I have come to the wrong person

Just then Adi gets a call from dadi...

Adi: ji m'am, ji m'am

Geet is about to leave when Adi stops her...

Adi: Geet wait

Adi calls her back for Dadi wants them to take up her caset o Maan...

Geet: thanks for your help Adi sir, but I don't think your Maan sir can help me

Adi: but Dadi ji insists we should help you

Geet: I'll go and meet dadi

Geet goes and meets Dadi again

Geet looks hopeless after knowing that Maan is not the one to help her anyways...

Dadi: what happened Geet? did you meet Maan?

Geet: no Dadi, but what's the use in meeting him?

Dadi: I know what you are thinking, but believe me beta only he can help you, Maan always stands witt the truth just like you

Geet: but Dadi, he is a divorce lawyer

Dadi laughs...: aaise kuch nahi beta, it's just that he gets a lot of satisfaction in getting divorce for men

Geet: what's so satisfying in that, may be he indirectly gets the blessing of the suffering women

Dadi:  you got a point Geet

Geet is puzzled at this peculiar habit of Maan only appearing  for such cases...

Geet: but Dadi I have a doubt

Dadi: what's it Geet?

Geet: maybe Mr.Maan had a failed marriage which ended up in a bad divorce, may be he is one of the victims

Now Geet understands his strange behaviors...

Dadi becomes little emotional...: you are right in a way Geet

Geet is upset that she made dadi sad...

Geet: I'm sorry dadi, I shouldn't have crossed my limits

Dadi: no problem Geet, I think it's time that you know more about the Khuranas

Geet is surprised...

Dadi: it's a long story Geet...

Dadi tells Geet about Vicky and why Maan finds solace in helping men who are struggling in their marriage...

Geet couldn't believe that women can also harm men ...it may not be physical but still that's not good, haina?

Now only Geet is getting to discover more about life...

Geet now is convinced that she has to find some one else...but Dadi thinks Maan has to take up this case for that would only bring them closer...this is such a great chance that dadi wouldn't want to miss...
