MAan goes into the room where Geet is standing looking at the view outside..
He pulls her arm and turns her around
MAan(angry)- Geet..tum paagal ho gayi ho? WHat in the world do you think you're doing?
Geet(doesn't meet his eyes)- Nothing. I just wanted that girl's dream to be fulfilled.
Then she looked into his eyes,
Geet- You should think of others too Maan Khurana
MAan- Hmm..I don't think of others..is that what you are saying??
Geet- didn't I just say that? Anyways, I don't care- you have to make all arrangements for the girl to have the most amazing night of her life..okay?
MAan- Geet.I won't do anything of the sort? Why should I? I don't like her..I don't care about her..
Geet thought to herself- MAan I need to know how much you care about women. I need to know for sure that you're not a woman-hater anymore..I need you to do that..and this is just the beginning
Maan- Geet..Look..I don't care about all this. Please, stop this silly mind track of yours..
Geet- Silly mind track
Geet was hurt..
MAan closed his eyes
Maan- I don't mean it like-
Geet- No MAan..I don't want to hear anymore..who knows maybe my silly mind won't be able to understand your enlightened words of wisdom about womankind's nature.
Maan tries to apologize but Geet cuts him off saying she's not interested in his sorries
Maan- ek toh I want to say sorry to her..and she doesn't care about it..hmph..
Maan crosses his arms over that HAWT chest of his and turns away
MAan- I will not entertain that girl
Geet- MAan..You say you love me...Do this to make me happy..
She leaves..banging the door..
Maan- HEy bhagwaan...yeh kya hai? I tell her I love her, she says she doesn't love me back..Sometimes I think she loves me..sometimes I just don't understand her..yeh PARI se SILLY kab ban jaati hai..kuchh pata nahi chalta..
Now I will have to do this to make her happy- God knows what she wants to achieve through this..but..
Fine..Miss- whoever-you-are- I will make sure you have a good dinner
Geet goes to the restaurant where there are a few girls..
Girl 1- hey..aren't you with Maan Singh Khurana?
Geet- No..I'm not..feel free to test your luck..Waise bhi mera dimaag kharab kar diya hai unhone
Girls exchange glances
Girl 2- are you kidding me? MAan is so hot..
Girl3- so sexy..those muscles..those eyes...
Girl 4- that beautiful chiseled face...
Geet glares at them
Geet- Bas..bohot ho gaya..Outer beauty isn't the only important thing..
Geet notices a sudden change in the atmosphere of the restaurant..everyone is in a hurry..
She asks a waiter who is rushing by
Geet- suniye..yeh kya ho raha hai?
Waiter- MAam..Mr Khurana has given us so much of work to do in an hour that we have to hurry..isliye..please.don't mind..but we need to rush
He runs of and Geet
Geet- hmm..toh aa rahe hain line pe mere Dusht Danav
Maan comes to the restaurant within the next two minutes..as if searching..
Girls crowd him again..and so do the waiters- trying to clear their confusions..
Geet is there- standing alone..looking at the crowd..at him..
Maan can't see her from the crowd..and it takes him away..
Geet stares where Maan is though she can't see him and whispers..
Geet- Maan...
MAan suddenly breaks through and comes to her
While he is walking towards her, they have an eye-lock..
Maan- tum kahan chali gayi thi?
Geet turns away
MAan holds her by the shoulders and gently makes her turn...She shrugs his arms off
MAan goes to where her body is turned, she turns the other way and finally...Maan addresses her back
Maan- Tumhare kehne pe kar raha hoon..please..please don't be angry.
Geet- MEra dimaag kam hai na Maan..because I'm a woman..I
cannot understand enlightened ideas like you..
MAan- Geet..that was said in-
The bunch of girls talking to Geet
Girl 1- I thought you said you didn't know MAan
Geet- haan woh...
They look at each other..
MAan- Excuse ME..But main inka pa-
Geet- b-boss hain..I'm his secretary you see..
and he wanted to keep a low profile
MAan glared at her
but didn't say anything
Girl2- then...what is he doing here with you?
MAan glared at the woman
MAan- DO you have a problem with what I do or don't do? She doesn't..why should you?
Geet- um..HE had meetings here..obviously I was needed..that's why
Girl 3- Are you free for dinner tonight?
Maan- sorry..I'm not free for dinner..any night..ever..
And he stalks off
Geet- woh...he's angry right now..
She follows him yelling MAan...and he turns back and stops abruptly, she bangs into him
Geet- Uff..Warnign de kar ruka kijiye..ek din girl jaaungi main
MAan- Geet..I have already fallen..Its high time you do now
Geet rolls her eyes- Maan..That was no way to talk to a girl..
a small smile now and then doesn't hurt..you don't have a bad smile you know..
The way she said it really made him smile..
Geet- dekha..it wasn't so hard was it..
He stopd smiling
MAan- Geet..tum zabardasti mujhe badalne ki koshish mat karo..I'm not going to change
Geet- Maan..I don't want you to change.I want you to...
Maan- to what?
Geet said to herself- to get rid of stereotypes about women..
Geet- umm..go get ready for your dinner
MAan- geet..tum?
Geet- Maan..arre..you can have dinner and I will eat here
MAan- I do NOT like this..
But he says okay and leaves
He changes for dinner and the girl comes..right on time..
MAan- hi..please come in
Girl- Hi maan..I'm Deeksha..
They sit..and she
Deeksha- wow..you look hot..
Maan awkwardly tries to smile, manages a grimace and asks her if she'd like to drink something
They are having dinner...Deeksha asks questions which Maan answers mono syllably and mostly not at all
Deeksha- you can ask me anything you know
MAan- I wonder if she's had food..
Deeksha- Who? who are you talking about?
Maan- haan..Nahi kuchh nahi..How do you like the chicken?
Deeksha- it's really nice..do you like chicken?
MAan- Hmm..Yes..I like Italian
Deeksha- so do I.. But mom's home cooked food is best
MAan- hmm
Maan- um..so..what do you do?
Deeksha- think of you..
MAan- what?
Deeksha- um..I'm a psychologist
Maan- that's interesting.
Deeksha is pretty much drooling over Maan and is lost in his eyes..She finds him fascinating...mysterious..dreamy, with his oh-so-kissable-lips- every girl's dream...and perhaps nightmare as well
MAan serves her dessert and asks if she is enjoying
although I am not...
Deeksha- yes. I am..I don't hold much with conversation. I'm really glad you asked me out..I always wanted to dine with you
MAan smiled a genuine smile at the truth with which she answered
Maan- thanks a lot.but I'm not that great
Deeksha- haha...you're funny too!! What's for dessert?
She is looking forward to an amazing night- the reason he called her to his room...
They have dessert
Geet at the restaurant is still lost in her feelings..wondering what might be happening there..hoping Maan behaves himself and talks nicely
She has not eaten anything
A manager comes and asks her if she would like to have something?
Geet- no thanks, I'm fine
The manager looks disturbed and walks away after a moment
Maan gets a call
Maan- bolo
Manager- sir..Maam isn't having anything..
Maan- is there anger?
Manager- no sir..she's in thought it seems
Maan- hmm..ek kaam karo...make the best butter chicken and give it to her with rumali roti
He went back in and told Deeksha he needed to go as something had come up..
Deeksha- hmm..
She got up and before leaving...tried to kiss him..
Maan recoiled
MAan- what are you doing?
Deeksha- wahi jo aap karna chahte the..I didn't know Maan Singh Khurana was shy..you called me to your room..I'm willing..and now you have to go..so we must make of what time we have
HE held her hands in his and said
Maan- Deeksha- thanks for the dinner..it was good.. but I'm not interested in a relationship
Deeksha- who said anything about that..
Maan- uh..um..I'm sorry..I have to go..
She takes her purse and leaves a bit disappointed
MAan- Geet...uff..yeh ladki...kya kya karati hai mujhse...I have gone completely mad now
He goes to the restaurant where Geet has the khana in front of her..untouched uneaten and Geet still in thought
MAan- Geet
Geet is lost..so he sits down and serves her
Maan- Geet...
Geet thinks she's hallucinating
MAan walks up to her..and puts a bite of food in her mouth, she chews slowly while maan stares at her lips
HE cups her face and whispers in her ear
Maan- Geet..I did what you said..now you owe me..
Geet snaps out..
Geet- Maan...AAp yahan?
Maan- aa gayi aap zameen par..meri pari..
Geet blushes and looks down
Geet- how was dinner?
MAan- okay. It was fine.
But I didn't like it.You were not there
Geet- next time, main bhi houngi, okay?
MAan- u n me..on a date?
Geet- arre nahi..
Maan- Geet..shut up and eat please.
Geet does as now he's back..why she was feeling so pleased she didn't know..
MAan told her in detail about the dinner..everything he had heard or said
At the kiss part and his escape, Geet started laughing and MAan smiled
MAan- chalo..finally...jo aim tha woh poora hua
Geet- Maan..I wanted to make a point. I didn't know if I did or not?
MAan- Geet..I respect women..You taught me too..but when they act all crazy about me..I don't know what to do?
Geet- MAan..It's okay to be like that..but it's not okay to label..
If your experience was bad..it doesn't mean that every woman is bad
MAan- Geet..that is what you teach me everyday. I'm sorry- I didn't care about anyone except Dadi till you came into my life. And you taught me to care so much that now...now I'm afraid of that..
Geet for the first time held her husband's hands in hers and kissed them
At his questioning look, she didn't say anything, but simply smiled
That's it guys..hope you liked it..I couldn't bear to bring anyone between Maneet..silly me..!!
