Foreplay ideas for Maneet.. lets update

1. Maan always teases Geet and gets away with it. So Geet decides to have some fun of her own. She dresses up provocatively- Munda cannot resist her in sarees. Maybe she can try on some stuff for his viewing pleasure alone- the designer store redux. This time around they get locked up in a changing room with Maan purportedly helping Geet with her choli😉! Dadi/Annie can always knock from outside- perfect rom-com setting.
2. Geet can leave small little post-its for Maan all over office, while she is at home for the day. They can be naughty too (Just saying 😉). Munda keeps getting distracted every time and consequently gets no work done and ends up looking like a fool in front of the client. He comes back angry and is out to teach Geetikins a lesson she won't forget (I am all for such lessons 😳😆). There can be a chase sequence where Maan runs after Geet in the hall trying to catch her while Geet is giggling away to glory and manages to escape him a couple of times. Finally he manages to catch her and you know how one thing can often lead to another😳
3. At a party (what ...she is supposedly marrying a happening Delhi Millionaire'.she is going to be on the party scene) we can always find an old Delhi page 3 friend (Not the likes of party girl Rehana though..someone more classy please) of Maan's who is paying a bit too much attention to Geet. Geet and Maan are as usual not talking to each other because of a tiff they have had while reaching the venue. So when this Delhi Dude asks Geet for a dance, she happily obliges against her better judgment. I don't think I need to spell out the impact of this on our MSK and the consequently what can happen- Kurban Hua part - this time with a "you know what" ending😳.
4. Maan comes back from office after a really long and tiring day...How about Geetikins offers some free massage services! At first all is nice and sweet and then MSK can start getting a bit uncomfortable while the Kudi insists on helping in easing the tension a bit. Nothing too naughty but just enough to set Maan's and our hearts aflutter😍. 
5. Ice Ice baby and I am saying no more☺️!
6. Geet has a craving for chocolate (pregnancy hormones, don't you look at me😈). She is almost through with the bar...while MSK keeps watching her lips as she relishes every bite...last piece of chocolate left which Maan quickly snatches away and now holds between his lips and Geet in his arms with her hands held behind her back. If she wants it she is going to have to come get it!  
7. Geet is missing Maan while he is away on a business trip'.She tries on his shirt to feel close to him. While she is dreaming away, Maan walks in (as usual unable to stay away). He wants his shirt back immediately. We can have another chase, tickling sequence here😛!
8. Maan drags Geet into the shower with him. Under any pretext- missing towel, he slipped and fell, you get the drift😍.
9. Geet challenges Maan that he cannot stay without yelling at her for an entire day- maybe in exchange for a hug/kiss. Obviously she will go out of her way to provoke Maan😆, who by the end of the day is ready to strangle her. This can be made funny and romantic at the same time- Geet definitely knows how to push his buttons.
10. Maan going away for a meeting and Geet packing for him. Maan obviously has other plans for her and keeps taking out the stuff that she has packed. Angry Geet, Naughty Maan- anything can happen 😍😳......
11. Maan playing with the dori of Geet's blouse/caressing her back as they talk to guests at a party😉 (Naughty, naught, naughty..I know). Obviously Geet is flustered no end and ends up saying all the wrong things as Maan sends her (and mine) pulse racing!
12. One of them turns up at the office with a hickey. Let's see them trying to explain it away'..This can become really fun for the viewers and we can probably have a blushing and super embarrassed Geet as Maan goes about having a bit of fun at her expense.
13. Dadi and Geet sitting and talking. Geet is extremely sleepy and keeps dozing off every now and then. When Daadi questions Geet- she starts fumbling in her usual style trying to explain why she got no sleep the previous night (insinuation being that Maan kept her awake and busy till late☺️). Maan can always join Dadi in the inquisition to make the hot seat even more uncomfortable for Kudi😆. Later on when she gets angry at Munda- he can always turn up the heat in ways he knows best 😉
14. Geet comes back from the shower and is drying her hair. There is a drop of water on her shoulder- which starts distracting Maan big time. He leans into her and starts talking to Geet in that sexy voice of his😍 and eventually loses control and ends up licking the offending water drop off with his tongue😳.
15. Geet is in the kitchen making breakfast for Maan. Her saree pallu comes undone. Just then Maan comes into the kitchen. At first she is shy but then she asks Maan to help set her pallu right before someone comes in as her hands are dirty right now (all floured up, you see). Maan is happy to oblige- going and standing behind Geet and supposedly helping fix the pallu'.a lingering caress here, a touch there'totally distracting Geet from what she was doing'They are about to take things forward- just when Nakul/Daadi arrive. Maan manages to fix the saree just in time. The scene can continue once the intruders leave after teasing our naughty couple. Maan (supposedly) wants to learn how to make parathas ' a la Ghost's famous pottery scene
16. Maan trying to get Geet alone- pulling her into all nooks and crannies of the Khurana mansion- however, without success. All of Maan's plans to get Geet alone meet with failure- some sabotaged by Dadi (who is onto him), others sabotaged by Geet herself (who is as usual coy about PDA). Later on Maan is really angry with Geet while she tries to manao him.
17. After a fight- Geet has now put Maan in the doghouse which also includes a touch me not clause. Maan is clever- he gets a rose and starts caressing her back, neck, shoulder, collar bone etc etc. (What'technically he isn't touching her at all- Just the flower) while Kudi desperately tries to hold it together😳.
18. Geet sitting on the bed while MSK lies in her lap. She could be comforting Maan about something that has gone wrong in the office'.or this scene could be used at the beginning of the revelation of Arjun- Annie track. As Anwesha looks more and more unhappy- everyone notices and Maan gets more and more worried. Geet tries to distract Maan- a touch here and a touch there. At first Maan is unaware of what Geet is doing- but as her touches get bolder- Maan congratulates her-"Tumhari himmat to kaafi badh gayee hai. Test karne ka time aa gaya hai, shayad se" 😛
19. Geet sitting between MSK's legs leaning into him while MSK has his hands on her stomach. They are talking to their baby- complaining about each other and their hopes from the future'or maybe urging the baby to kick to establish who the baby loves more (depending on whose voice leads to the baby kicking).
20. We know Munda loves to take off his shirt- nothing like a shirtless Munda to send Geet speechless. They just get back from office- Maan starts undressing as soon as they enter the room. Geet goes-" Yeh aap kya kar rahe hain- aapko koi sharam hai ki nahi?" Maan is obviously not one to let any opportunity of teasing Geet go to waste replies back ' "Mera ghar hai, mera kamra hai, mera jo dil karega who main karoonga- kisi ko problem hai to woh yahan se jaa sakte hain". By this time Geet is totally distracted as Maan has unbuttoned his shirt completely. After a few seconds- she realizes what she is staring at, looks up to see a smirking Maan and quickly turns around in embarrassment. Maan can then tell Geet that there is no place for shyness between a couple.
21. Maan is the early riser of the two (I know this is not traditionally how it is done- but humor me). After their SR he is the one who gets up first- looking lovingly at a sleeping Geet. He leans in to kiss her on the forehead just then Geet wakes up. Maaahiiii😍
22. Just like everyone- I am all for a passionate neck kiss - Geet at home'Maan just comes back from office. Sneaks up on Geet who is busy doing something in their room. He hugs her from behind and plants a kiss on her nape😳.
23. I think Bri had posted this idea earlier- Maan getting hurt and wanting Geet to kiss his teeny tiny injury better- He can lead Geet on a wild goose chase all over his body☺️. Can go both ways- Geet chiding him once she realizes that he is upto no good, or she playing along and happily obliging (I would prefer the latter).
24. Maan comes back from office and wants to share some fantastic news with Geet. He picks her up and starts spinning around- she laughingly asks him the reason for his happiness. He stops and as she slides down his body with their gazes locked-they both forget what they were discussing (and so do we😳)
25. Maan insisting on helping Geet getting ready or vice-versa (ref Anj's OS)
26. I would love to see another rain scene- with Geet in a saree'maybe in the K-Mansion garden. (Hopefully it won't be too much of a risk for Superbaby)
27. Everyone sitting down for dinner at the table. Dadi talking to Geet while Maan keeps looking at Geet's lips'Geet realizes what Maan is looking at and starts getting distracted. She gestures him to stop...but then has Maan ever stopped😆 Hopefully dadi can remain unawares of how Munda is seducing Kudi with his bedroom eyes and kudi is melting into a puddle of mush.
28. Geet asking Maan (during an argument)- "I do so many things around here and the office what do you do and what talents do you have?" Maan doesn't reply at all just continues to stare at her lips'Geet blushes'and turns around shyly.
29. Maan imprisoning Geet in his arms with her back to a pillar in the hallway or wall in their room- He reminds her that she still has to make good her promise and say thank you for everything he did for her during the wedding. Geet trying her best to leave/free herself while Maan will hear nothing of it''He has come to collect the "thanks" that is owed to him😍.
30. Setting for a perfect seduction scene- A perfect date- candle light, roses, soft music somewhere outside (would love it if it were on the beach), maybe fireworks too- the works😍!
31. Geet and Maan go out to watch a rom-com movie- Maan can get romantic'or they watch a horror movie- with Geet getting super scared. Either way Maan gets to take advantage of the situation.
32. Maan and Geet in their room'Maan is getting ready'and in a very naughty mood'.Just then Dadi calls him...he quickly finishes dressing and rushes out- Only to have Dadi point out that his buttoned his shirt all wrong😆. She can tease him on how he was never like this before..some more leg pulling😈.
33. Maan and Geet in office- Maan keeps calling Geet into his room for something or the other'at times he is touching her hand'at times makes her lean over him'at others he leans over her to point out mistakes in her work' She finally catches on and tells him that this is not the place for all this and that he can do all his sharartein at home'Maan immediately latches on to the opportunity- You promise that I can do all of this at home and you will not refuse/act coy/do nakhre?
34. Geet and Maan are in office. Dadi calls Geet to discuss some party they have to go to. Maan decides to play naughty'and leans into her other ear and starts whispering sweet nothings. She elbows him and gestures him to back off'Munda is not one to give up easily. He intensifies the attack'and pulls her closer in MSK style and starts nibbling her ear'.Finally Geet caves and puts down the phone telling Dadi she has to rush' (could be vice-versa with Geet on the offensive 😈)
35. First day back in office after the wedding- both Geet and Maan are getting ready- She has tied up her hair in her typical choti'Maan slowly unties it and asks her to leave her hair open as likes it that way'He could lean in to smell her hair and run his fingers through it😍

"For a man to feel loved, he needs to make love. For a woman to make love she needs to feel loved. So that's why the foreplay, the romance, is so much more important to a woman."

 - David Weir quotes

Foreplay - When i told Anj jokingly that i would write for this topic never did i imagine that i would give it so much thought or that it would consume 24 hrs of my day!!lol.. I thought about this while i was driving into work and it kept reverberating in my mind the entire 8 hours of my work day suffice to say that i was totally a unproductive zombie because of this topic!! LOL.The only saving grace is that i did not utter the word "Foreplay" in any meeting!.

Finally, i decided to pen down the random thoughts that this word conjured up in me. Some might agree, some might love to have a healthy debate and indeed some might find this totally offensive!!! Yes, it does sound offensive to a few people in reality too.(i call them the repressed ones!! LOL)

My analysis of foreplay begins with a totally off topic thought!!

The Kamasutra and the paintings of Khajuraho..

Take the kamasutra or the paintings of Khajuraho they evoke different emotions and reactions from us mortals. Some appreciate the beauty behind the art (the brush strokes, the color, the perfect sculpting of images etc), for some it is a piece of incredible history, for others it is mild curiosity towards something very sexual, sensual, indeed for some it is just nude art and for the majority of people it is sex positions which invokes disgust or a voyeuristic interest to know more!! you might wonder what does this have to do with Foreplay and GEET. There is definitely a parallel here. As those paintings and sculptures mold our psyche and our senses so does the portrayal of foreplay in any Tv show. Since we are discussing specifically GEET, i have painstakingly looked at some of the scenes that made me imagine what the director did not show. Molding of senses and overpowering of our mind comes to mind when i think of all the scenes in GEET where the director has left it to our imagination.

In Geet so far, i have seen verbal foreplay, physical, non-physical foreplay all played out beautifully and left to the imaginations and dreams of the viewer. We are left to wonder what would he or she do when the verbal foreplay reaches its zenith. Case and point after the aftermath of the "Tere mast mast do nain" sequence there was a dialogue between Maan and Geet where MSK says that if you call me Maan sir one more time... and Geet replies back saying i know when to use Maan sir and when not to, this scene perfectly depicts verbal foreplay. What do those sentences mean?? For me, it meant that MSK would grab her and give her a french kiss if she ever called him Maan Sir (a very standard reaction for a hormonal woman!! LOL) and from GEET's side i thought she would use it to get him to react when she needed him to and that is exactly how she did it!!! later. In my eyes the scene was a subjugation of the senses for others it might not have had a great effect. It would have been categorized as another nok jhok between MSK and Geet but there were layers behind each sentence that was penned down and how it was emoted between the characters. People who saw this and loved it are the ones who understand the intellectual simulation of foreplay.

Audiences understand and take in foreplay at different levels.For some only non-physical foreplay would make sense as they are more visual and make you earn to watch it again and again. Take any of the sequences in the show, be it the stare that MSK gave to GEET's lips or any close encounter scenes between MSK and GEET. The eye contact is a powerful mechanism or should i say trick of the trade by which the creatives show physical yearning and intimacy. The almost kiss scene on the lift or the stare that MSK gave to Geet's lips are case in point. Kudos to the creative team for giving a brilliantly shot. The practical viewer in me knew that he was not going to kiss Geet's lips but the dreamer in me breathed a sigh as he stared at her lips and my imagination took over. I remember thinking an M&B scene where the kiss was more graphical and it was MSK and GEET doing the kissing. This is what the director wants you to imagine and dream, the passion, the sensuality, the uncontrollable but controlled desire of their protagonists.

There are scenes in the show if you see it closely enough will realize that the actors are not even close to each other when these shots are being taken. There was a scene in the earlier episodes where geet walks in and does a presentation. MSK sits at the head of the table staring at GEET's lips. For the normal viewer it depicts the yearning of MSK for GEET. Here too it is the trick of the brilliant camera. The camera zooms in on Geet's lips which makes us imagine that MSK is staring at GEET's lips with uncontrollable passion and desire!!!!The actors give their shots individually but to the viewer there is nothing more powerful than that eye contact, which is what the narcotic fueled brains of viewers are supposed to believe and if the viewer believes it then the director has achieved his goal. Total takeover of our brain and grey matter! *winks*.

Physical foreplay, this is what a typical viewer would always want to see but the directors don't let it out of their kitty bags a lot. This is like those priceless masterpieces that come out when they know that the viewers interest is wanning or when they want to make it a high point of the show. Physical foreplay always makes a viewer sit up and take notice.During Kurbaan Hua or the Roop tere mastana sequence how many of you went aww or got x-rated visions seeing their physical foreplay. i bet it was everyone here and that is exactly what the director wants you to feel.  The physical manifestation of desire, passion, sex, etc and this foreplay if shot well and with enough thought in it will definitely garner the TRPs the creative team is looking for. 

At the end it is just mind games and an artistic illusion of make believe that we the viewers fall for time and again! You might ask why! Why do we do it? why do we the female species fall for it. I started the topic with the answer (the quotations) and i am ending with it as well. There are other varied reasons too but the top most reason that always hits me when i give it any deep thought (which people who know me well would attest that it is rare) is that we humans as in the female of the species are so programmed to know others people's psychic and to enjoy beauty and understand the intricacies of human nature that we give in every time. Foreplay is nothing but a mind game that we think we would win but always end up loosing!!! (And i have lost it too!!Right now..).

On an ending note, all i would want to say is that enjoy the foreplay, the imagined intimacies, the illusion of passion and desire and fly along in this journey with GEET and Maan. Who knows when we would see another jodi who can evoke such strong feelings in their viewers or give us such passionate foreplays were we are left wondering if it is reel or real??!! LOL
