Al My Love thank you for an out of the world analysis of my ordinary apology of Maan and Geet!
I have been all caught up. I have managed to keep tailing the thread and keep up with what Nihu, Mummy, Nags and you have said in your takes, as well as your responses to each other... and I have a composit thing to say! I have a good feeling and a bad feeling.
You and Nihu's points are very well taken, understood, and digested. However I also side with Nags and Mummy in some of my reservations about what the future track has in store for us in terms of Nandini/Dev, as well as Geet's self reflection.
All of your symbolisms are MIND BLOWING! Whether it was in form of water, or lep, or maan's understanding of Geet, or Pammi's words reflecting Geet's heart!
For me - there is a lot to be sad about and a lot to be happy about! I am extremely fragile now. I always worry about what the CVs will do next.
I was thinking -
Even before this track started, I had blind faith in the creatives of this show. I worshiped the dialogue writer and I adored the direction and long term vision of this show.
So even when they brought the AA track I hated it but was least bothered by it. I was sure that Arjun will try very hard to tackle MSK but Maan will triumph over him - However this never got shown.
I was sure that CVs will show the interlacing of AA track with MSK's and that will open doors to infinite possibilities - that never happened. AA track went on to continue disappointing. Al I agree the actors came out as winners as they got groomed very well in the process, but the story itself added no value to GEET - the journey of a woman.
When Dev got brought into the picture - I was sure that they won't make a mess out of this story like KEKTA shows and they won't create MU's between Geet and Maan because of Dev. - Well they did NOT disappoint. Maan never blamed Geet, or distrusted her. That's an admirable step of CVs that I respect them for. They didn't even ONCE butcher or deviate Maan's character no matter how many people changed in the production team. Hat's off to them for giving MSK that consistency.
But then rumors started pouring in. Maan to be upset at Geet getting closer to Dev. Geet to forgive Dev. Geet to play holi with Dev. Maan to misunderstand Geet instead of confronting her. Geet to leave Maan -
One afte another headlines and would you believe - I DIDN'T BELIEVE A SINGLE ONE OF THEM.
I was so sure that CVs are just trying to mislead us and they will sort these issues out before we know it. They can't give us this mockery of a track. - and guess what - THEY DID.
I bit my tougue and swallowed the poison - absolutely hated how that whole misunderstanding was handled. No I am not saying that Geet Maan shouldn't have been separated, but there were so many other reasons they could have shown. Anyway - been there done that. Let's move on.
Finally when the new family settled in, it gave us hopes to another limitless number of possibilities in guise of Lucky/preeto, mammey, pammi/teji, even dev/nandini!!!
But what we are seeing now is the track between Geet and maan just drag on without really showing any underlying depth.
No I am not questioning Geet's ego, or her decision of leaving, or her love for MSK, or her weakness. I am only requesting a justification in true form, for why Geet felt it was sooo inevitable for her to leave the man of her life. Now Nihu dear I understand how beautifully you have justified why she did it - I want to hear her say it, or hell just think it... just once. Not in Pammi's words, or Maan's head, or Biji's or daarji's words - in her own words. I have not seen that self reflection! And I am craving it.
Dev/Nandini track - if Dev goes to get redeemed by this similar personality woman who will treat him like the dirt of her shoes, well all the more power to the creative team for giving us such a powerful track and loop closure in redeeming Dev. it would be amazing.
My only sadness is, that I have NO FAITH in the creatives of this team! Everytime we are given a ray of hope for something good, they manage to ruin it with something completely useless.
If all those filler episodes earlier this week was so that this track can be prolonged, then they are making a grave mistake and being hasty about it, and it SHOWS!!!
