Episode Analysis
WOW! Thank Babaji for what we got today. It was truly a way to enjoy some wonderful moments with our favourite characters and see them move towards the next step. The Maaneet scenes covered such a range of emotions today, as they have always done.
I loved the first scene where Geet is lying on her stomach and Maan comes and lies beside her. This is one of my favourite things about their relationship, the fact that they are best friends and almost like kids with each other. Their interactions have a wholesome innocence about them, which can transform at the drop of a hat to intense passion. This scene will always be special for showing that camaraderie and the comfort side of their relationship.
Even the circus wasn't annoying today because they were minimal and were helping Maaneet plan the anniversary. The fact that they were proven useless was a bonus! 😃
Are we to assume that Maan's memory is back, because he kept saying we have faced so much in the past year, but our love has never wavered. I was like actually, your love wavered pretty badly when you lost your memory, even though, of course, it wasn't your fault. I am just going to assume its back because that makes me happy and gives me some closure. I shall just assume it came back after Viks whacked him across the head and he told Geet, they just forgot to film it. 😕 I think these dialogues may have been Barry's way of saying, sorry guys this is all the memory restoration you are going to get!
To move on to more important things! We finally got that kiss! 😳 It was uninterrupted and Geet's fingers were all up in Maan's hair and he was sliding his hands all over her waist...I'll take it. ☺️ What I liked most though was that Geet leaned in more eagerly than Maan did! It was such a nice slap in the face to the word chaddo. Of course their nok jhok is always classic! We didn't get a mishti but we got soni and mautarma instead and I'll take that too! After all, Geet claimed Maan had 1303 names for her and we have heard maximum of 10, so no problem in making some last minute additions to the list!
HE PUT ROSE PETALS ON THE FAN!!! Any man I marry will be tied up in a dark room with Maaneet moments playing back to back on all the walls, for four to five days. Men like MSK don't exist but they can be conditioned. 😈
The kanjoos PH, as if they haven't compromised enough could not even afford extras for the party! Shame on them! When big stars are extras at Abhay-Piya's wedding, Maaneet could have at least had some plain extras! The joke is on MSK as Lucky and Dev used his money to buy him gifts for his anniversary! 🤣 But aw, Adi Sir! I wonder what he got them... It was probably a thoughtful, wonderful gift, like an eyelock alarm with his laugh recorded, which automatically starts playing if they stare at each other for more than 30 seconds! 😉
Aw and Geet's cradle moment was so poignant. I don't think the CVs thought of this but they made her expression profound enough for me to interpret it as her thinking of her baby, the one she fought the world for and the one that allowed her to meet, stand up to and finally fall in love with Maan. I am also going to imagine, because why not make it better than it is, that that cradle is from the storeroom and is the one Maan had put away after the MC (hey it's even consistent with Maan's kanjoosi). PS: Is Maan's mind so powerful that he can control when he does or does not impregnate Geet? Because how does he know about the baby? Or is this a symbolic "Main papa banna chahta hoon?" 😕 Yep, memory is definitely back.
I do love that they are so connected that they think the same thing at the same time and buy each other the same gift! It would have been cute if they had twins to boot, to fill the two cradles. 😳 But one Maaneet baby is a miracle in itself and a touching, if not conclusive, conclusion to their story.
Of course I was extremely emotional while watching the scenes today. I had a steady ache in my heart as I saw these two characters in love in a way that nobody on TV ever has been or will be and I was simultaneously sad to let them go and happy that I had gotten have them at all.
