DEVIL'S DEN :Baby's Day out - Page 2

Hello Nissar, PH, Ved, Sudhir, Vikas, Barry, CVs ' you took the story up a notch today with your shock-attack.  You did succeed in stirring the pot quite a bit'.but your 'Geet or baby' stance flopped'big time!  Only ignoramuses , fed on cinematic crap would fall for this trick.

You'd warned that there would be a lot of shocking developments b4 the wedding' I guess today was one of them.

In the sauna

----------------

Geet stuck in the sauna'heat rising...Brij waiting for her to die.

Maan placing the taveez at Durga maa's feet, asks for blessings, picks up the taveez and walks back to his room.

Whenever Geet is in trouble Maan is nearby.

Brij feels justified that he has restored his purkhon ki izzat, waits until he sees Geet collapse and leaves confident that his mission is accomplished.

Maan returns to his room, does not find Geet.  Hears something drop and thinks Geet's in the wash room.  That's how he sees  her ' unconscious on the floor.  In a panic, Maan breaks down the door, rushes in, picks up Geet, brings her out and places her on the bed.  He tries to revive her but Geet does not respond.   Even in this crisis, likes Maan's presence of mind.  He calls Dadi and then immediately calls the doc. This does not seem to be the same gynaec that Maan had first taken Geet to.  But this doc seems to know that Geet is pregnant.  Based on the doc's recommendation, his next call is to the ambulance.  Dadi walks in, is shocked to see Geet in this state.  Maan notices the taveez on the floor and picks it up.  Tries to tie it around Geet's wrist but is interrupted by the servant saying the ambulance is here.  Maan picks her up and carries her to the ambulance.

Seeing  Maan carry Geet to the ambulance, Brij rejoices that his mission is accomplished.

Blooper 1 ' Brij jumping to the conclusion that Geet is dead.  For someone as deviously smart as him how can he assume that taking her to the hospital equates to death ?  This is an unacceptable mistake from Brij.  CVs pls  note.

@ the hospital

--------------------

Seeing her condition doc wants Geet to be taken to ER.  Pulse sinking, suffocation (ghutan), doctor is unable to come to a conclusion without further tests.  Maan watches as the oxygen mask is placed on Geet and the nurse gets the IV ready.  Again Maan remembers the taveez.  He remembers the fakir's words ('tumhari mehbooba ki hifaazat karega), closes his eyes in a silent prayer and ties it around Geet's wrist.  The doc notices him in the room and shoos him out.

NE-Arjun

------------

Seems like the Geet team wanted to diffuse the tension a little by showing the NE-Arjun track. Nice tactic but the NE-Arjun scenes did not have the desired effect'.on the contrary, seemed OTT.  Arjun finds out that NE now detests him for being NT's bro. Arjun is in a fix'choose between his heart strings or family. 

Arjun character is interesting.  Pls don't dilute his character with NE.

Why would a rich girl walk away from KC especially since her bro gifted her a brand new car.  Even if she did not bring in her car, cant she call a cab with her mobile ?  Especially after receiving Dadi's frantic call, there seemed to be no common sense urgency in NE-Arjun to call a cab or for NE to call the Khurana Office/Mansion for a car and driver.  Amazing'especially from a millionaire khandaan ki ladki like NE.

Doctor's prognosis

------------------------

Doctor says ' Geet ki haalat aur bhi bigadi to hamein Geet aur bachche mein se kisi ek ko chunna hoga.  A totally ambiguous statement from the doc who knows she is pregnant.

Mega Blooper ' Geet must be about 3 months pregnant.  She does not show a significant baby bump.  The sonogram also did not show a fully formed baby.  So in these circumstances how can the baby survive without its mom ?  And I refuse to believe that at such an early stage of pregnancy, the baby can be delivered prematurely ,  brought up in the neo-natal ICU and survive.

 CVs ki akkal kya ghaas khaane gayi thi ?  Havent we been shouting at you to do your homework ?  You could have just talked to a gynaec and done a background check to see if this scenario was feasible.  You failed. 

Fix this blooper tomorrow.

You could have possibly used this scenario later on in the story but today it was  preposterous.

Precap ' Maan praying to God fervently that he must not have to make the choice between Geet or the baby.

Gurmeet was in Maan's character today.  Maan is a person who internalizes his emotions, is in control of the situation, someone who deals with his emotions in private.  All of these aspects were visible in Gurmeet's acting.  If he seemed wooden that was becoz he was trying to get a grip on the situation on hand and keep a control on  his emotions so he can think clearly.  But Dadi knows her pota and her pota too is not ashamed to show her his tears.

So Gurmeet, I think you did really well.  Yes, you could have done much better, but I blame the writers for a weak script.

Will Geet survive? Will baby survive ?

If Geet does not survive, Geet HSP will not survive.

If baby does not survive, Geet will not survive which means Maan cannot survive.

If all this happens Geet HSPs TRPs wont survive.

So'

Focus will shift towards who locked Geet in the sauna and increased the temp ?  Will Arjun come under the gun? Will Brij be dragged back into the picture ? How?

In the meantime, I'm sitting back and chilling with a cool drink and my favorite book :)

Nissar ' execution wasn't top notch today.  Story progressed with the shock factor but NE-Arjun scenes seemed to be band-aided together.  Script left a lot to be desired.

Nissar  and team - Damage Control is the name of the game tomorrow.

Viewers are gearing up for a Maaneet wedding.  We want our Maaneet wedding and we want the baby too !  So Geet HSP let's see what u have in store for us.

• I am chilled about the baby for now. They can't be promoting the dream wedding with a miscarriage at this stage. But MC at any stage now is not acceptable to me. 😡 We have discussed it in the "baby" theme thread. But to be doubly sure, I will paste it even today at the end of my analysis.
• Good to see Annie continue to throw the attitude, but that jungle scene was neither necessary, nor logical. It's night time and madam Anvesha Khurana leaves the office and reaches some God forsakes place on foot, from where she can neither go back to the office to get a car, not go home to get one. How believable. And as it is the romance track is not likable. On top of that you have to show in while miscarriage threat is looming large on our heads. What more can I say? 😡 And even if you had to show Arjun helping Annie, it could have been done in the office itself. She receives a phone call, realizes that no car is available in the office and Arjun offers to drop her given the emergency, despite the bitter exchange they had just a while back. That would have really been sufficient to create base for some future understanding coming between them! Jungle romance at this stage was indigestible.
• And for God's sake. Geet isn't even showing! How can baby at all be saved at this stage without saving Geet? CVs, don't you think you have used this tamasha a bit too early in the show? Danger to both their lives would have been enough for now. Just to keep some tension for one episode, you have ensured that your name will be written in golden letters in the "History of medical bloopers (rather any kind of bloopers) in the Indian Television". Explanations like Geet dying later on, if the baby grows, just don't cut it. This is an epic non-sense, even by the daily soap standards. Period. 😡
• Did someone else feel that MSK's didn't look worried/scared enough given the situation? Or was it intentional? He was too blank given the situation? I don't know. So won't judge. But shouldn't even Dadi have looked more worried? Even if only for MSK's sake?
