See I don't understand this, a lot of people are arguing that Geet left the house in response to Maan's outburst becuase she holds her self-respect and integrity in high regards....

But where the hell did this self-respect go when she allowed Dev (the Man who stripped her of her self respect in front of the world and left her to die at the airport) to apply colour on her !!!!!

I honestly don't know what to say... i'm confused !!!!!

Sure Maan was wrong to question her integrity and self-respect in the way that he did, but considering the infamous holi scene between Dev and Geet, I can't really say I blame the guy!

The problem lies in the expectations of some people--

Dev- rapist, was and always will be.

Maan- saint, was, always will be.

Geet- victim wrt Dev, indebted damsel wrt Maan , was, always will be.

If you guys have been following the series why cant you see wht I have seen?

Geet cannot always think of Dev elementally as a rapist. The character of Dev has developed a lot since then--

--- He realized his crime , actually surrendered, wanting to atone for it.

--- Left them alone when Maan didnt pursue the case..

--- saved Maans life..

Now , for Daadi she was forced to accept him back in the house, but she ignored him completely.

Still the fact remains hes in the house living with them. She has just overcome her grief of loosing her child, and suddenly realized she needs to get their life on track... why admist all this pain must she also carry on being bitter?

As for Maan.. is she supposed to worship him , or love him as a woman loves a man? WHy should she always have to compare what Dev did and then remember what Maan did and then decide.. thats absolutely ridiculous and very cold on part of people to expect so!

Just cuz Dev did what he did in the past doesnt mean, she should forgive Maan for everything he ever does or say cuz it would neva be as heinous as what Dev did!

Dev shouldnt / doesnt figure in their lives right? Maan also believes that right? so then why shouldnt she be hurt by what Maan says, irrespective of Devs crime? wheres the justice in that?

Its shocking to see that people still put Maan on a pedestal and expect Geet to kill herself proving all the time that she is deserving of his generosity!

WHat Maan said was an outcome of repressed anger and confusion... but it was hurtful nonetheless... very very very demeaning. and Geet is right to be struck badly by it. Dev doesnt matter to her, Maan does.

So we can understand where Maan is coming from, please try and understand her too. and dont always weigh everything Maan does against Dev's crime. Its very unjust to Geet.
