DOTW - Innocent Village Girls. - Page 2

@mansi: AGREED. and nice to meet ya😛

Mansi - but as we said geet realy doesn't know if she is in love with dev or not..we don't know if geet is in love with him or not..but she deffently is smitted by his charm..and her being shy and all means that she is comfortable

@Krystal - Haha...that could happen in only bollywood movies..wow. So sexy it would be..and also a change. Sigh.

LOL Krystal. Pigs would fly the day shows portray the lead girl initiating such scenes on desi shows. Come to think of it, we hardly have a good enough spunky girl in soaps. These shows target women. And most if not all writers are women. Don't they have a creative urge to come up with a spunky female character. And then let her be.

Coming back to the topic, it's stereotypical that small town girls are innocent and submissive and city girls are all bindaas. Ask any Gujju girl what goes on during navratras in Ahmedabad and Baroda. To put it subtly, its Christmas for the gynaecs. W.r.t. the show, Geet's character is being portrayed as an innocent, submissive one. Hence, she feel for his charms. Post the Dev fiasco (that is not an apt word, though), there would be a definite change in her character. Going by the promo, she is standing up to her grandfather, questioning why he did not check out Dev's credentials before marrying her off. She's the same girl who was scared stiff of him, for losing her dupatta.

As for the consummation, perhaps they wanted the establish Dev's negativity more. Or are planning to put a pregnancy track in. Illogical, but anything is possible in soaps.

I too am not quite in favor of the pregnancy track. Like you pointed out, most shows do end up with that. No point in bringing an unwanted child into the world. But you never know with the soaps.

I'm also curious as to what would happen when Dev returns after she's picked up the pieces and moved on. A typical show harps about how once a girl is married, she must go with her husband. But Dev here was a much married man before she came into picture. 😕

good dotw mansi!
