Dadi-Geet convo
--------------------
Yesterday I'd defended Dadi with these words –
"So Dadi is trying to balance the situation knowing what is going on. Pretty savvy Dadi. She was acting like the astute family head and owner of a business empire. I was happy to hear Dadi say that she is not against Maan's upcoming wedding plans. That's good. Coz yesterday, Maan had asked for Dadi's blessings and consent. He got the consent today. But the blessings have to wait for a more opportune time. " She proved me right today.
Dadi sees Maan walking in the hallway lost in thought. Her heart melts looking at her forlorn pota. Someone made mistakes and somebody else is paying for it. Maan does not even notice her as he passes by. Geet, alone at the outhouse remembering the KBM, his proposal and subsequently how he tells her that they have to wait to go some more to enter the mansion.
A knock on the door alerts her. Her one and only thought …Maan Sir. She runs and opens the door expectantly to find Dadi.
Dadi enters. Before Dadi can talk Geet starts confessing her presence at the outhouse. Dadi understands and tries to comfort her saying she did not come to talk about finding her at the outhouse nor does she have any reservations that Geet is staying at the outhouse.
Dadi is here to tell Geet that she couldn't complete the previous convo (@ the mansion) since they had to rush to the hospital. Due to the situation at the hospital, Dadi tells Geet that Dadi had told Maan to wait some more time for the wedding. And you may have thought that I am the cause of this delay. I think Dadi gets her answer when Geet lowers her eyes. That's when she tells her that NT had complained to the police abt the murder attempt. Dadi confesses that she did not want NT to embroil Geet in this situation. Geet has heard for the first time abt what NT had done … from Dadi. Maan had not told her the details yesterday.
Geet is immediately contrite. That's her innocence. She does not hold any grudges. She asks for forgiveness, for misunderstanding Dadi. Dadi immediately recognizes Geet's feelings. So she too opens ups saying that she was worried about Maan.
Geet immediately places a reassuring hand on Dadi's shoulder and asks her not to worry. Geet recognizes and says so that Dadi is worried that Maan is blaming himself for the delay in Maaneet marriage. She reassures Dadi that this wont happen. She will talk to Maan. Dadi sees the sincerity and love for Maan in Geet and touches her face lovingly. It's a gift to sense what the other person is going thru and to comfort them. Geet has this gift. Reassured, Dadi leaves with a smile on her face.
Deveera
----------
An emotional Meera heads home with Dev following trying to find out what's wrong. Meera, the ever patient one is upset asking what would people call their relationship…they live under the same roof but are friends. Dev finally gets the truth out of her – coming to the conclusion that it was NT who riled Meera. Nissar – I liked how you brought out this scene. Very nice…Dev acted well too. Great job !
Maaneet @ Mansion
-------------------------
Geet goes to the mansion in search of Maan…not blaming him at all for the delay. She is sure that even now he is thinking about her. She finds him staring out of the window. But today Geet cannot find words to soothe him. Unable to say anything, she turns around and leaves. Just as she leaves Maan senses her in the room and turns around, her floating dupatta the only proof that she was indeed there. Maan is sure Geet was there to meet him, she must have left seeing him pensive. Maan now blames himself not to have wasted time here but instead should have been with her. Each one if worried about the other's state of mind. Union of mind, heart and soul.
Maan heads back to the outhouse to talk to Geet. Geet inside thinking of how to make Maan smile. When two equal forces, coming from opposite ends, collide…what do you get ? A beautiful Maaneet moment J
To distract him Geet tells him that he cant knock on her door this late at night. Maan is confused…Geet slamming the door seemed a bit tacy but promptly raises Maan's ire…almost. He peeks in thru the window looking for Geet. Oh I loved the way Geet pulls his leg and he almost falls for it….Loved Maan's grumpy expression. Tubelight thodi der on ho gayee. But once it was on, it lit brightly….LOL ! So much so it lead to a steaming window pane… ROFL. What an adorable scene.
Just as Geet is succumbing to her emotions, Maan pulls the plug…I mean walks away. As Geet sits back on the bed thinking about Maan – yeh jitney shareef dikhte hain utne wo hai nahin. Lights out ! Geet startled goes to the window and looks out. A match is struck….Maan stopping by the window to light the candles. Oye munda is trying to turn on heat….one notch at a time….he he he.
Geet is overwhelmed by how Maan knows whats in her heart without her having to say a word. Maan responds – Just like you do. So the cat is out of the bag…both are on level ground. So now Geet has a guard outside the door. Geet is worried about the rain. But Maan assures her that even if there is a storm he'll be waiting outside, guarding you. (Now is this a plain sentence or does this have a hidden meaning ?)
Dev/NT
--------
Liked this dialogue Barry. So Dev hands divorce papers to NT. NT shocked. But Dev may have just given her a loophole. Dev tells her that Maan is not aware of it. So NT may milk that situation. Interesting…must watch with care. NT is not one to give up.
Precap – Geet is looking at a sample wedding card which says Maan weds Geet. Confused she turns around and a happy Maan tells her that Dadi has also called a panditji to look for a wedding date. We are getting married Geet, he says. Geet's face is filled with happiness. Wedding bells in the air.
Today's episode is all the more delightful –
- Coz Nissar won the Best Director award
- We had light Maaneet moments
- Dadi cleared the air with Geet
- Wedding bells are ringing
Now CVs I want you to give Maaneet a grand wedding and peaceful married life…for sometime. Leave them alone to enjoy wedded bliss. Don't bring Sameera into the picture until next year atleast. Develop the story around Dev/NT and KC. Bring Sasha to justice.
Additionally, I want Sameera to enter as an ex-GF, not as an ex-wife. An ex-wife will dilute the integrity of Maan's character. Dadi had mentioned a bahut bada gunah by Sameera …. So that gunah should prevent Sameera from becoming Maan's ex-wife. Bring her in as NT's bro's wife/GF… I don't care. But don't tarnish Maan with an ex-wife.
