Hi all...🤗...Well...I was thinking and thinking and thinking...yeah I know thoda jyada ho gaya...😆😆😆...Itna think karoongi tho brain blast ho jaayega...😆😆...Anyways, point pe aati hoon...😉...I was thinking ki what should I write in my opening post today...Maine bahut socha (I know I already mentioned that 😆) aur sochne ke baad I decided ki I will write about a few things which I have noticed in the past few days...some directly related to the show and some indirectly...
First let me start with the indirect reference and get it over with...For the past few days...or maybe even months...I have seen people being divided about Geet and Maan...The division has been due to what these characters are portraying in the show and also due to some external factors...I too have sometimes liked and sometimes hated what Geet does and have similarly sometimes liked and sometimes hated what Maan does...That's human nature...Coz over the past one year, I have become so attached to the show , that these fictional characters have become almost real for me... Note the emphasis on almost...I have still not crossed that threshold to insanity and fanaticism where the line between Reel and Real becomes blurred (Thank God for that!!!) ...But some people seem to have stopped seeing the fine line...I don't blame them...the actors portraying the characters do it so well that it becomes really hard sometimes... But we have to be sane about it and not let our personal thinking mar the beauty of this platform where we discuss GHSP day in and day out...and have become great friends''
All the people in this forum come from various places, have varied interests , likes, dislikes, professions etc...But there is one thing that binds us all...and that is Geet Hui Sabse Parayee...We like to discuss, healthily debate, and enjoy all things related to Geet hui Sabse Parayee...Be it acting, direction, music, costumes, set-design, lighting, choreography and so on and so forth...
But, in all this we never forget what keeps us attached to this show...and that is...the One and Only Maaneet, their amazing acting and their out of this world chemistry...Sometimes we praise them, sometimes we criticize them (healthily), sometimes we get angry at them, sometimes we cry and laugh with them, sometimes we cry for them and sometimes we laugh at them... And all said and done... We Love Them...Because they are the heart and soul of the show...and the show is incomplete even if one goes missing ...And I for one am hoping and praying that we will continue to demonstrate our love for them and the show in a decent and friendly manner in the future too...
Now that I have that out of my system, I'll come to the direct reference...which have been bothering me off late about the show...
The first and foremost being the Dev and Nandini pair-up and the track involving them...Everything is wrong with it...I accepted Geet and Maan forgiving Dev because that was required for Maaneet to move on in life ...But what I can't accept is Dev being given another chance at Love and Marriage, without any proper repentance from his side. I have never seen him say or do anything which showed true remorse except maybe him wanting Maaneet's happiness...He has never dwelt upon all that he did in the past ...nor has he ever tried to make amends...except for maybe a few days spent in jail and that for me is not enough...I am not saying that he should not get a second chance at life and happiness...He should...like everyone else in this world...But, after paying for his sins...and I for one am not satisfied with his payment...Actually I never even saw a smooth transition of him from Devil to Saint...So, how can I be satisfied with his remorse...I don't even know what triggered his conscience and made him step out from the dark side into the good side...
And to make matters worse the CVs have concocted a track which is similar to the Dev-Geet-Maan track...where earlier Dev was the Evil Demon, Geet-the Damsel in distress, and Maan the Knight in Shining Armour but now the tables have turned and its Dev who's the Knight in Shining Armour, Daman the Evil Demon and Nandini the damsel in distress...And in this case, the Evil Demon Daman is going to pay for his sins, whereas we never got that in the previous track...And that makes me very dissatisfied and unhappy...
One more thing that bothers me about this track is Maaneet's support of Dev...OK, I can understand they forgave him and want to move on but...matchmaking and being pally with him as if all that transpired in their lives because of him never happened at all...Well, that's too hard to swallow...and that too when Geet does it, it becomes too much...And her supporting Dev in his pursuit of Nandini, her sister...Well what can I say...it really makes me pull my hair out...
Now, moving on to other things that have been bothering me...
1) Geet not standing up for Maan when Beeji bashes him left, right and center...Not Good
2) Lucky-Preeto, Lucky-Jugnu, Daman-Nandini, Tom, Dick, Harry and their kin getting more focus than the main leads...Not Good at all
3) The unnecessary stretching of the Amritsar track...Irritating
4) No tracks revolving around Maaneet but multiple tracks for everyone else...Very Very Very Bad and frustrating
5) Maan and Geet's character being butchered by the CVs whenever it catches their fancy...Not Good
All I want to say is...I watch this show and have continued to watch this show for Gurti/Maaneet and will continue to do so in the future too...As long as these two are in this show, the show will always be special...I hope the CVs realize that and will use that to their advantage...And will soon give us a "Maaneet-Centric story"
Phew...I can't believe I wrote so much...I just vented out my frustration in the form of words...and Now I'm feeling better...I hope today's episode doesn't spoil it for me...😆😆
Anyways, will be back with my epi take late...😊
