I totally suggested that they should use flahsbacks for filler episodes way back when they made the huge roof-wedding blunder. It makes up for GC's absence because you can see his face and feel the emotions of all the flashbacks over again. Good work on that note. 👏
I just wish they had included the puffy-faced MSK in the flahsbacks at least and wonder why that "I love you" was edited out of the original episode. On second thought, it may have been unnecessary because that scene expressed the love without words and Maan's unconditional support and Geet's renewed faith and strength didn't need any words to articulate the love they felt for each other at that moment.
Stalker alert! ☢️😲
I was hoping just the card was from Maan but it doesn't look like it. Clearly the stalker guy knows exactly what is happening at KM, down to the last detail. Do you think he has Geet's number bugged so he knows she called for cake and shirts? That seems more plausible than him lurking around and concerning himself with the circus' problems.
Faria, your all girls' school stories are so scary but yes, like you said it does happen. I feel like the whole point of a stalker is that he would have gone unnoticed by Brij or Darji. That would have been part of his whole mission in stalking her. He may have also vowed to "free" her from the "jail" that she was in...
The only thing I don't like about this stalker thing so far is that they keep referring to him as "Geet's past" coming back to haunt her. This makes it sound like Geet's past is some huge mystery we know nothing about when in fact it is Maan's past that remains shrouded in mystery. We actually know quite a bit about Geet's past given that she was the sole protagonist in the HP days, before the love story started.
I have no problem with this track as such but going back before the start of the show means they should have to address the Dev-Geet marriage thing and I am scared they are going to brush it under the rug as MP has always done and treat Geet's past like something we knew nothing about previously, sort of like they did with the A'sar track. It was like Geet suddenly had this family that was conveniently unaware of what had and had not happened to her and only really considered her married to Maan. None of them broached Geet's past.
Similarly, like the HP family that was written at the beginning was completely lost, I am pretty sure the Dev story will be conveniently forgotten here as this is now "Geet's past". In this respect at least I wish they had gone for Maan's past instead which we are all dying to know more about. Maan's family remains so underdeveloped, which is why I miss Pammi. Also, this is where I think Ved Raj was a little smarter than MP. Instead of introducing more of Geet's family he chose to create characters based on Maan's and NT's families, which we knew nothing about so he could do whatever he wanted. On the other hand, Geet had a family and they were so much more interesting than the A'sar clan that MP's creations could never measure up to the original CV's. He would have also been better advised to go for Maan's side, which Barry was smart enough to do.
Now when I see articles that say stuff like, the time has come for Geet to face her past, I am like, sorry, what has she been doing for the ENTIRE SHOW that it is NOW time for her to face her past? It feels a little loose and unstudied to me.
This is not to say I am not excited for this track. I am just preparing myself for the inevitable reality that it is in no way really going to be connected to the HP we saw Geet inhabit at the beginning of the series, or the story that happened there. The show is just different now and I guess I have to take that with a grain of salt.
Other than that I am excited for the plain drama, excitement and possessiveness plus all the chipko-fying that is bound to happen. 😉
