Tum Mille....

                    TUM MILLE... 

Prologue...

KHURANA MANSION...

That KM which always sports the look of a haunted villa is now illuminated like a grand palace.

And there are more unusual things happening today at KM. Usualy an unpleasant silence surrounds KM which scares off even the thieves. So, there is no need for any security! But today it's entirely different.

 Tearing the usual silence of the dark night one can hear the noise of people chatting and laughing. All the servants are busy and they are very happy and excited. Why wouldn't they be happy? The impossible has been made possible by none other than our beloved Dadima, Savithri Devi Khurana.

You can say that Savithriji is the happiest person on Earth this evening...she finally got her grandson, MSK, married today,this is not one of the fat Indian weddings. And this may not be the most elegant and elaborate wedding, still this is the most fortunate thing that has happened in her otherwise unfortunate grandson's life.

Dadi has this gut feeling that this shadhi is going to turn Maan's life upside down. This is the only hope she has got and she has immense faith in her bahu, Geet Handa, who is an equally unfortunate soul, but she has got the vigor and passion to fight every odd thing that she comes across in her life. She is a fighter, she is our sherni.

Geet is sitting in this bhoot banglow, that was the first thought that came to her mind when she first stepped in this morning, this place would accommodate her entire village population but sadly only two haunted souls reside here along with a hand-full of naukars. What a waste of money, that money which has made her a mere commodity in this cruel trade called shadhi.

Geet is not ready to accept this marriage, she has decided to make this khurana's life a hell. She is not a coward and is not going to yield to this so called rich man.

                "woh kya sochthe? Paison se kuch bhi kareedh sakthe? Nahi, paison se aap kissi aur ladhki ko khareed sakthe ho, Geet Handa ko nahi, ye shadhi aapki zindagi ki sabse badhi galthi hogi, haina babaji?", Geet complaints to her babaji.

While Geet is thinking on this line, Dadi has got other plans. She had called the parlor girls to get her daughter-in-law ready for the special night. Dadi knocks the door, Geet thinks that it might be her rich master who had traded her for her father's debts. What kind of a person would do that?

                "kutha,kamina, ab yahan kyun aaya hai? ", Geet then realizes what's in store for her. "babaji, ye kudh ko kya samajtha? Mein bhi dekhthi hoon ki aaj woh kya kar saktha? Usski ye himmat?, aaj mein uski jaan leloongi"

Geet gets very angry and she opens the door ready to pounce like a lioness, then she calms down seeing Dadi, she is angry with this Dadi too, she also helped MSK in this shadhi na? Though her face has turned red in anger she looks very pretty. This girl needs no make-up, she is alredy so beautiful. Dadi thinks that she has made the right choice, she is more beautiful in the inside than her outside beauty, that's what impressed Dadi more.

                "Geet bte, ye log aapko tayaar karne aaye hai, aap jaldhi se tayaar ho jayiye, Maan aathe hi honge"

Geet didn't expect this. This Dadi has really gone mad. How on earth could she act normal after all the drama that happened yesterday? Maybe for Dadi it's a marriage, but for Geet it's only a business deal where the highest bidder won, which unfortunately happened to be MSK.

                                                                Part = 1

Geet is fuming inside but she couldn't show her anger on Dadi, her main villain is only MSK, and poor Dadi, she is obviously happy that her potha somehow got married, though she had to use her money power to get a bahu, else no sane girl would agree to marry that sadu MSK.

Geet stands still expressionless, Dadi leaves instructing the girls not to spoil her bahu's natural beauty with their artificial make-up. She wants her bahu to look like a princess.

After Dadi leaves Geet literally throws the girls out and just wears the dress that Dadi had chosen for her.

She has got a plan and she had to act according to Dadi's wish to succeed in her plan. Then she waits for her villain.

After a while Pinky, munshiji's daughter comes. Pinky is the only one Geet knows here in Delhi. Geet had met her at a couple of functions and Pinky is a distant relative of Geet.

Pinky: hare Geet, tum toh bahut sundar lag rahi ho

Geet: Pinky, tu kahan chali gayi thi?

Geet is happy to see Pinky...Pinky looks at Geet and knows that Geet is scared and worried...

Pinky: Geet, Dadima ne mujhe bhulaya tha, issiliye mujhe jaana padha

Geet: Dadi ne? kyun?

Pinky: ye dekho, mein kya layi hoon?

Pinky has brought a plate full of fruits and milk...

Geet: ye kya hai?

Pinky: hare, phal hai

Pinky picks a fruit and starts eating...

Geet: mein yahan kitna pareshaan hoon, aur tujhe toh khane ki padhi?

Pinky: tujhe bhi toh bhook lagegi? Haina? Ye lo

Pinky gives one to Geet...

Geet: nahi, tum hi khao, mujhe koi bhook nahi hai

Pinky: subhe se tumne kuch bhi nahi khaya hai Geet

Geet: meinne kaha na, mujhe bhook nahi hai

Pinky: Geet, tumhare bhooke rehne se kuch nahi badalne wala hai, mere baat ko suno aur kuch khalo, warna aadhe raat ko behosh ho jaoge tu

Pinky smiles...

Geet gets worried...what?

Geet: kya? tum kya kehthi ho Pinky?

Pinky: haan Geet, tum bahut kamzor ho gayi ho

Geet: nahi, mein behosh nahi ho sakthi

Geet thinks that if she faints then it would make MSK's job very easy...

Geet knows very well that to carry out her plans she need to be strong, stronger that that MSK...haina babaji?

She then grabs the fruits and milk from Pinky and finishes off in a few minutes...actually she has been starving from morning...

Dadi comes to see her bahu...she finds the plate and glass empty...

Dadi looks suspiciously at Pinky...

Pinky: meinne nahi, Geet ne hi sab kuch katam kiya hai, haina Geet?

Pinky looks at Geet...

Geet: haan, mujhe bhook lagi thi, issiliye meinne khaliya hai, kyun? Mein kha nahi skathi?

Dadi laughs at her attitude...

Dadi: kissne kaha ki aap nahi kha sakthe ho? mein aapko aur bhi bhijwathi hoon, jitna chahe kha sakthe ho, ho sake toh apne pathi ke liye bhi kuch bachakke rahikye

Geet's anger doubles hearing dadi calling MSK her pathi...

Geet: kaisa pathi? Woh mere pathi nahi hai

Geet murmus to herself...

Dadi: kya beta?

Geet: kuch nahi hai, Pinky, hare Pinky

Geet tries to escape...

Dadi holds her hands...

She then puts kala tikha on Geet's ears...

Dadi: aap toh sach mein pari lagthe ho, kissi ki nazar na lage

Geet blinks as she doesn't know whether to curse her fate or this Dadima for all this...

Dadi: teek hai beta, ab hum chalthe hai, hummare sone ka waqt ho gaya

Geet then looks at Pinky for help...

Dadi: Pinky bte, aapko munshiji dhoondh rahe the, aapko bhi ghar jaana haina?

Pinky: ji Dadima,mein abhi jaathi hoon

Dadi leaves and she sends Nakul with more fruits and milk...

Pinky: toh Geet, mein chalthi hoon

Geet: Pinky, tum toh kuch dher aur rukh sakthi haina?

Pinky: nahi Geet, mujhe jaana hoga, Maan sir abhi aathe hi honge

Geet: Pinky, mujhe yahan nahi rehna, mujhe bhi tere saath lekhe jao

Pinky: hare Geet, ab teri shadhi ho gayi haina? Hum aaise nahi kar sakthe

Geet: par mujhe ye shadhi mansoor hi nahi hai, ye shadhi nahi zabardasti hai

Pinky: Geet, pehle toh sabko aaisa hi lagtha, phir dhere dhere sab kuch teek ho jayega

Geet: tum toh mujhe samajthi hi nahi

Pinky is embarrassed...poor Geet...Pinky also feels pity for Geet...but she can't help Geet

Pinky: Geet, mein subha aathi hoon, gud night Geet

Geet: kaunsi gud night? Ye toh mere zindagi ke sabse bhuri raat hai, haina babaji?

Pinky smiles and tries to cheer Geet...

Pinky: dekhthe hai ki subha tum kya kehthi?

Pinky winks...she hugs Geet and leaves...

Pinky had to leave...it's time for her exit...

After Pinky had gone Geet is left alone in that room...

Geet gets her ready for the SR...yes, she had to make some arrangements...

Geet takes a quick look around the place...she had to get ready for action, haina?

The room is decorated with flowers and illuminated with candles...

Just like Geet had seen in the movies...

She wonders what could happen next...

The thought of some stranger touching her frightens her and she is not ready for that yet...

                "babaji, aaise nahi ho saktha"

Geet knows what to do now, she waits for her woh, the MSK's arrival...

                              Part - 2

Maan comes home very late...

He is frustrated and angry with himself for what he did the day before...how could he do that?

He shouldn't have gone there...he curses himself for landing into trouble all by himself...

It's none of his business...he had never gone to Hoshiarpur, his native place, since his dadaji's passing away...

He had fond memories of his childhood holidays spent with his dadaji. Mr.Lala Amarnath Khurana , in the fields of Hoshiarpur...

Those were the happiest days of his life...

After his parents left him one after another, Dadi left Hoshiarpur and came to Delhi to look after him and his elder brother Vicky...

As Mr.Madanlal Khurana, Maan's father suddenly died after launching the new business in Delhi, Vicky had to give up his studies and take charge of KC...

Maan used to spend his holidays with Lalaji at Hoshiarpur, dadu always waited for the holidays eagerly...

Maan ko abhi bhi yaad hai, dadaji ke paas ek bail gadhi(bullock cart) thi, dadaji Maan ko lene railway station bhi ussi mein aathe the...

Maan used to enjoy those bumpy rides...dadaji let Maan ride the cart always...and he always praises Maan's takent... riding that may not need a license but it needs some skill, haina?

And they used to go to the nearby town to watch Amitabh movies in that same cart, while they return both of them fall asleep but the bullocks know the right way back to Hoshiarpur...

Maan loved those rides very much, and dadaji is a great cook too...

He used to make delicious food for Maan, dadaji Maan ke liye specialy chicken banathe the, aur uska naam tha Hoshiarpur chicken, he used to say that there is a unoque flavor in Hoshiarpur's land and water and that is not available in Delhi...

Maan had not had such good chicken afterwards...Maan knows that only his dadaji can brind that taste with all his love and care...since Maan's mom left him when he was too young everyone took care of him with utmost care and attention...

After a couple of years dadaji fell ill, he suffered from dementia...he lost his memory slowly...

He used to forget his meals and sometimes even to bath, Dadi used to make fun of him...

Then after a few days he needed someone to take care of him...he had to be taken care off just like a child...dadi had a tough time taking care of everyone...

And all the relatives suggested that Maan be sent to a boarding school...

Vicky never liked that idea and he sternly said no to that...

He took care of Maan relieving dadi instead...

That's when Maan became so close to Vicky...

But later he even forgot Maan...Maan felt very bad...

And the worst part is that he had to locked up like a culprit in a separate room for he used to get wild and even tried to jump off the terrace once...

Maan can't forget his pain and suffering in those last days...

Dadaji was such a nice man, he didn't deserve such an end...

Kabhi kabhi Maan ko lagtha tha ki isse achcha woh jaldh hi marjaathe...

Aur ek din Maan ka ichcha oura hua, dadaji Maan ko chodke chale gaye...

After that Maan became so dependent on Vicky...

Vicky used to take him to KC in the holidays...for Maan was so depressed thinking about dadaji...

Maan ki Hoshiarpur ki yadein kuch aaise hai toh Geet ki baat bahut hi alag hai...

She never liked Hosiarpur, it reminds her of her useless alcoholic father...

She comes to Hoshiarpur only for the festive season that too only to see her elder sisters...

She hates her father so much... he is the worst father a girl can have...

He got his eldest daughter married off as a second wife to a man who made sure that she will never have a child of her own after marriage and married her just to take care of his children...

She was made to undergo sterilization even before she was married to that man...

Then her younger sister Rajji loved her neighbor Gurvinder and ran away with him as she knew very well about her father...

Geet is happy that at least she had the choice to choose her partner...she hopes her didi is living happily with Gurvinder somewhere...

Geet stopped going to Hoshiarpur after that until her father literally abducted her from Amritsar, where she lived happily with her mausi...

Maan's room...

Geet blows off all the candles and waits in the darkness...for the devil to come...

Maan enters his room unaware of the lurking danger...

He is still thinking about the unwanted things that happened the day before and how he could come out of this mess...

He doesn't know neither about dadi's plans for him nor his beloved wifey's plans...

He is completely exhausted and just wants to lie down and take some rest...

At the present scenario it's very hard for him to fall asleep, at least he could pretend to be sleeping with his eyes closed...haina babaji? But that too seems to be very difficult...

Maan is about to switch on the lights when someone attacks him from behind...

Maan catches hold of that person and pushes that stranger hard to defend himself...

In that process they fall on the bed and are entangled in the decorations made for SR...

Maan could feel that it's definitely not a man...

Geet is lying beneath him and is struggling to push him off...

It takes a couple of minutes for Maan to realize that it's his new bride who had tried to attack him and not any outsider...

He immediately gets off and switches on the lights...

Geet quickly recovers herself and gets ready to attack him again with the knife in her hand...

Geet had used the fruit knife for her defence...

Maan snatches the knife from her and arrests her hands behind her back...

Geet: hare, kamine, choda mujhe

Maan gets angry seeing her in his room...

Her presence annoys him more than her strange behavior...

Maan: tum, tum yahan kya kar rahi ho?

Geet: chodo mere haath

Maan: tum kya chahathi ho? pagal ladhki, tum mujhe jaan se maroge? Maan Singh Khurana ko?

Maan shows all his might and poor Geet is no match for him...

But still she fights back...

Geet: haan, mein aaj nahi toh kal tummare jaan leloongi, tum samajthe kya apne aapko? Tere paas paise hai toh tum bagwaan banjaathe? Aur sab tere seva karenge?

Maan: chup...bilkul chup

Geet: mein chup nahi rehne wali, samjhe tum, paise dekhe tum mujhe nahi kareedh sakthe, kuthe, kamine, tere ko toh mein

Geet tries hard to get off his hold...she continues her galiyan...

Maan ko lagtha hai ki isske haath ko nahi pehle muh ko band karna padega...

He takes off her duppatta and shuts her mouth...

He then takes a deep breath and realizes that it's dadima's plan to trap him...but Maan is not going to give-up his bachelor's oath easily...

He then holds Geet's hand and tries to get her out of his room...

Geet mistakes him for trying to rape her and she resists ...

She tries to escape and starts kicking him...

Maan then lifts her up and carries her on his shoulders...

Geet hits him hard on his back but this man is too strong...

He has got a body of steel and her tiny hands would just tickle him...

She feels like a tiny doll caught in the hands of an evil giant...yes, she is such an innocent doll...

Even Maan could notice her innocence and he very well knows that she is still a little girl, soni pari...

Maan takes her to the Out House...

By this time Geet had untied her mouth and starts shouting for help...

Geet: bachao...koi mujhe bachaooo

Maan is embarrassed...her voice echoes in the silence of the night...

Maan couldn't bear it...

He rushes in and throws her on the bed...

He then jumps over and shuts her mouth with his hand...

Geet looks scared...

Maan: chup...bilkul chup...

Maan looks into her frightened eyes...

Geet looks at him like a villain...

She is trying to save herself from him...

Maan is hurt as he had fallen so low in her views...

Though he isn't bothered about his image he doesn't want to scare her more...

He too knows her plight very well...if his life is full of misfortunes in some way so is Geet's, as this marriage is an equally unfortunate affair for her too...

Maan: darne ki koi zaroorat nahi

Geet aur dar jaathi...

Geet thinks that he is out of his mind, after treating his so called newly married wife like that he is asking her not to be afraid ... truly this man is nothing less than a mystery...

Maan: meine kaha na, darne ki koi baat nahi

Maan raises his voice seeing her still afraid of him...

Geet shivers under his arms...

Maan moves away relieving her...

Geet gasps and tries to get up...

Maan pushes her back and he gets up to leave...

Maan: ab ye kamra tera hai

So saying he leaves...

Geet is astonished by that...she keeps looking his back till he vanishes...

She then goes and locks the door...

She couldn't believe what happened and wonders why the hell did he marry her?

She closes her eyes and thinks about her life...

She is determined to live her life as she wanted, no one can stop her, even that devil MSK...

She prays to her babaji to give her all the strength she needs to face this devil...

She gears up for the fight...she is not afraid of anyone...haina babaji?

                              Part -3

Next morning...

Geet wakes up earlier and is relieved that she is still safe and sound in this new place...'

She goes to the wash room to freshen up and just then she remembers that all her things are kept in Maan's room...

Dadi had asked Nakul to empty a cupboard for Geet and Geet had arranged her things in it...

She didn't know that it's Maan's room that she is about to share... Only when Dadi came with the girls and made arrangements for SR did she realize that it's the devil's den and dadi is making her the scape goat...

Geet thought, OMG Geet! ye kamra toh tera nahi hai, koi aur ka hai,tu yahan kissi sur ke saath ek hi kamre mein rahogi? Kanjus Khuranas, itne bade ghar mein mere liye ek alag kamra nahi hai...

Geet is worried that her privacy is being invaded and that it's not going to be her room alone...she is stepping into some strangers room, that thought made her mad but then Geet has failed to realize that she had already stepped into someone's life and there is no looking back...

But thanks to babaji she had a narrow escape last night...

Geet thinks about last night and she later thinks that she should really thank Maan...haina babaji?

Geet is confident now and is not scared of Maan now, she goes to Maan's room to take her belongings... Now that she has a room of her own she can shift here...again thanks to MSK...

Dadi is surprised to see Geet coming from the OH...

Dadi: Geet bte, gud morning

Geet doesn't reply, she just hates this dadi for sending her into the lion's den as a prey last night...

Shukar hai babaji ki, sher toh Geet ke haath mein chakku dekhthe hi dar gaya? Hummari sherni se panga nahi lene ka, kya?

She runs up the stairs towards Maan's room...

Dadi sighs seeing her going to her room...

Geet knocks the door...

Maan thinks that it's Nakul, Maan had called him...

Maan: come in

Geet knocks again...

Maan: tumme sunayi nahi dethi hai kya? andar aao

Maan shouts...

Geet opens the door and enters the room for she knows that this man is not such a Dusht Danav as she had thought earlier after seeing him last night, she respects him for that...

Maan: tum?

Geet stares him...Maan stares back...

Maan: tum yahan kyun aaye ho? meinne kaha tha na? ye mera kamra hai, bahar jao, abhi, tummara kamra OH mein hai

Geet doesn't listen a word he said and heads to the cup-board where she had kept her things...

Maan tries to stop her but she is determined to get back her things...

Maan: tumne suna nahi meinne kya kaha? Bahar jao, abhi

Geet opens the cup-board only to find it filled with Maan's clothes...

She gets anhry and starts to look for her dresses...

Maan had already asled Nakul to clear off the cup-oard and replace his wardrobe back to normal...

Nakul had just gone to keep Geet's things in the OH...on the way he had to serve dadi and so he is late...meanwhile Geet had come here...

Nakul had taken one trolley and one more is left there...

Geet angrily takes off Maan's clothes and throws them on the bed...

She keeps looking for her clothes...

Geet: mere kapde kahan hai?

Maan gets furious...he catches hold of her, turns her around and looks into her eyes...

His eyes had turned red in anger, Geet turns pale...she couldn't stand the piercing look of MSK...

Maan: tummara samaan wahan hai

Maan shows the other bag kept in a corner...

Geet moves away to get her bag...but Maan holds her back...

Geet is puzzled...why would he stop her...

Her heart beat rises...she turns and looks at him...

She is so scared now...his touch makes her feel weak...

Maan: kya dekhthe ho?

Geet bows down unable to look into his eyes further...

Maan: ye kya hai?

Maan shows the scattered clothes...

Geet blinks...

Maan: issko pehle jaise wapas rakhna, aur phir tum apne kapde lekhe jaa sakthi ho

Geet tries to take her bag...

Maan pulls her back...

Maan: yahan se bhaagne ki koshish mat karna, ye mera ghar hai, yaad haina? Ye Maan Singh Khurana ak ghar hai

Geet had to obey his orders as it was her mistake...she starts to keep them back...

Maan takes the towel and goes to take bath...

After taking bath Maan comes out and finds the cup-board left open...

Maan: ussne cup-board ko khula hi chod diya

He goes to close it...

Geet is still sitting down arranging his things properly...

Nakul has just stacked his things one over the other...

Maan is shocked to find her at his feet...

He has just come out of the wash room in his towel...

Geet looks up and closes her eyes tight...

Maan: tum abhi tak yahan kya kar rahi ho? ye mera kamra hai

Geet replies with her eyes still closed...

Geet: manthi hoon ki ye aapka kamra hai, lekhin mujhe kya patha ki aap apne kamre mein aaise nange pange goomoge? Babaji, meinne kuch nahi dekha

So saying she tries to crawl in between his legs...

On her way out she takes Maan's towel along with her...

Luckily for Maan she had kept her eyes closed always...

Maan hides behind the cup-board door...

Geet gets up and runs towards her bag...

Maan: woh Nakul lekhe aayega, tum pehle bahar jao

Geet ko bhi lagtha hai ki ab ussko yahan nahi rehna chahiye...

She blushes and runs away...

Maan shouts: darwaza band karkke jao

Geet comes back giggling...she shuts the door and escapes...

Breakfast time...

Maan: dadi, aap kya sochke ye sab kar rahe hai?

Dadi: hum toh sirf aapke balayi ke liye hi itna kuch kar rahe hai bte, humme aur kya chahiye? Babaji ke krupa se aap ke ghar basjaaye

Maan: par Dadi, aap jaanthe hai ki ye sab kaise halaat mein hua tha

Dadi: hum kuch nahi jaanthe bte, humme toh sirf aapko kush dekhna

Maan: aap mere kushi ke liye kissi anjaan ladhki ke zindagi barbad nahi kar sakthe haina?

Dadi: kya? aap ye kya kethe ho bte? Humne toh usski zindagi ko barbad hone se bachaya hai

Maan: haan Dadi, aaisa hi sochke humne bhi wahi galthi ki jo usske baap ne karne ki koshish ki

Dadi: lekhin Maan bte, ye toh rab ki marzi hai, humne toh kabhi nahi socha tha ki aapki shadhi bhi hogi, babaji ne hummare barson ki dua ko qubool kiya hai

Maan: dadi, aapko patha hai ki ye ladhki...

Maan struggles to remember her name...

Maan: kya naam hai usski?

Dadi: hare Maan bte, aap itne jaldhi Geet ko bhool gaye?

Maan: haan Geet, usski toh abhi shadhi ki umar bhi nahi hui hai, I think she is still a minor, and this marriage is illegal, you know it's equal to a crime, how could you accept such a marriage dadima? How could you even think that I'll accept this drama?

Dadi: drama? Maan bte, ye toh hakikat hai, aap donno ki shadhi ho gayi hai

Maan: come on dadi, she is too young for marriage

Dadi: so what bte? She will be a major soon, humme koi jaldhi nahi hai, hum intrezaar kar sakthe hai

Maan: dadima, aap samjhthe kyun nahi? mein iss shadhi ko kabhi nahi mann saktha, aur woh ladhki yahan nahi reh sakthi

Dadi: kyun nahi reh sakthe? Geet hummare bahu hai aur ussko yahan rehne ka pura haq hai

Maan: dadi, iss bar aapka koi plan kaam nahi karne wala hai, meinne faisla kar liya hai, woh yahan nahi reh sakthi toh nahi reh sakthi, bas, mamla katam

Maan gets angry and leaves for KC...

                                                            Part = 4

Dadi is upset b'coz of Maan's attitude...

Though she had expected this reaction from Maan, she is only worried about Geet, what would she think seeing Maan's anger?

Geet has been watching Maan from the balcony...she was waiting for him to leave so that she could come and have her breakfast...she is really hangry...

She is shocked to see Maan getting angry with his own dadi...he should at least respect her age...

Kaise aadmi hai ye? Koi apnon se aaise gussa kartha hai kya? aur dadi chahe kitne bhi galat ho, woh toh umar mein kitne bade hai? Geet too feels bad for dadi...

How could she live alone with this man? That's why she is desperate to find someone for company?

Par mein hi milli thi unko? Dadi ne toh bahut hi bhura kiya hai,Haina babaji?

Even she is not happy with dadi's decision...

Dadi finds Geet staring the entrance, Maan has just left...

So Geet has been watching him, and dadi knows that Geet is also very angry with MSK...

Dadi: hare Geet bte, wahan kyun rukh gaye hai aap? Aayiye, hummare saath nastha kijiye

Geet: woh aaise hi hothe hai kya?

Dadi: kaun?

Geet: woh...

Dadi smiles: ohhh woh, Maan?

Geet: haan, woh

 Dadi: nahi nahi, aaj aapke woh thoda pareshaan hai, issiliye

Geet: par mujhe aaise kyun lagtha hai ki woh kabhi hasthe bhi nahi honge?

Dadi is astonished to hear that...how well Geet has read Maan's mind, that too within a day...

Dadi: woh... Maan ki koi galthi nahi hai, unke chehra hi kuch aaisa hai

Dadi tries to remember Maan's smiling face...when was the last time he smiled?

Dadi couldn't remember properly for it has been years...

Geet: aapne aaisa kyun kiya?

Geet looks into dadi's eyes and demands an explanation...

Dadi: humne kya kiya?

Geet: woh, aapne hummare shadhi inke saath kyun karwaya?

Dadi feels a little guilty for she knows that she is being selfish getting Geet married to Maan...

Dadi: kyunki hum nahi chahthe ki aap uss budde ko shadhi karkke apne zindagi barbad karein

Geet wonders why is dadi so concerned about her life? Geet toh Dadi ko jaanthi bhi nahi...phir kyun?

Geet: kyun? Aap toh mujhe jaathe bhi nahi?

Dadi: hare Geet bte, aap humme paraya kyun samajthe ho? hum toh aapke apne hi hai

Geet: lekhin mein ne toh aapko pehle kabhi dekha hi nahi

Dadi: agar hum kehthe hai aapke janam hi hummare samne hi hua toh kya aap ko yakheen hotha?

Geet is so surprised...

Dadi continues to surprise her...

Dadi: aur pehle ek mahene tak aap hummare paas hi the, kya aap maan sakthe ho ki aapko bachpan mein humne hi ek maa ki tarah pala posha tha

Actually Geet doesn't know anything about her childhood...she has heard her mausi say that her mother passed away while giving birth to her and that her mausi has adopted her as her own daughter...

Geet: par mausi ne kaha ki meri maa mujhe janam dethe dethe mar gayi, toh aap mere maa ko jaanthe ho?

This is the first time Geet is hearing about her birth...she only knew that she is being brought up by her mausi as her mother died...

Dadi: haan bte, hum bhi Hoshiarpur ki log hi hai, jab hummare bte aur bahu Maan aur unke bade bhai Vicky ko chodke chale gaye humme yaha aana pada, aur hum Ranno ko bahut achche se jaanthe hai

Ranno is Geet's mother...

Geet's eyes wet hearing her mother's name...

Geet has heard her mausi saying that she is just like her mother...

Dadi: aapke maa bahut achchi hai, woh apne betiyon ko bhut pyaar karthi thi, bas aapke dadi ko hi shikayat thi ki Ranno ne do do betiyon ki janam diya hai, unko toh sirf beta chahiye thi

Geet gets angry with her dadi now...toh aaisi baat hai? issiliye usski nalayak beta bhi usske tarah hi hai...

Dadi: aapke dadi ke jaane ke badh Ranno phir se pregnant ho gayi, aur Mohinder chahatha tha ki iss bar zaroor beta hoga, kissi sadu ne kaha tha, issiliye itne saalon ke badh tummare maa ko phir se maa banna pada, bechari toh bahut kamzoor thi, tummare nikambe papa toh hamesha doston ke saath pithe hi rehtha tha

Aur uss raat bhi woh pi pikke behosh ho gaya tha...

Ranno bahut dard mein thi...aur woh hummare paas aagayi...

Mein aur Lalaji Ranno ko apne gadhi mein shehar ke hospital lekhe gaye, aur wahan aap ko janam dethe hi Ranno aapko iss duniya mein akhele chodke chale gayi

Dadi is also in tears remembering that unfortunate incident...

Dr ne kaha ki bachi bahut weak hai aur ussko ek hafte tak hospital mein rakhna padega...

Aur hum aapke saath hospital mein hi rukh gaye...

Aap toh tab bhi aaise hi thi, bahut pyaari si, chulbuli si...

Hum ko toh aapko aapke papa ke paas chodne ki himmat nahi thi...

Hum jaathe ki woh aapko bhi aapki maa ke paas bhej dega...

Dadi gets very angry mentioning about Mohinder...

Geet is happy that Dadi knows very well about her family...specially her mother...

Humne toh sab se saaf saaf keh diya ki ab Geet hummari pothi hai...

Mohinder ne bahut koshish ki, aapko hum se cheenne ki...

Aur kissi ki bhi himmat nahi Lalaji ka samne karne ki...

Dadi is so proud of dadaji...

Phir aapki mausi aake aapko apnaya tha...Rajjo bhi Ranno ki tarah bahut hi achchi hi...haina?

Haan Geet ki mausi ne Geet ko ek maa ki tarah hi apnaya hai...

Geet nods her head...

Dadi: aaise hi aap Hoshiarpur chodke Amritsar chale gaye the

Geet is so surprised...her hatred for dadi slowly turns into love...ye Dadi itni bhi bhuri nahi hai...haina babaji? Aapne toh humme sahi jagah hi pohunchaya hai...par shadhi ko mein nahi maan sakthi...

Geet is only ready to accept dadi...not MSK...

Dadi continues...

Dadi: issiliye jab uss din munshiji ne aapke barein mein bathaya tha hum apne aapko rokh nahi paye, hum foren Hoshiarpur chale aagaye

A week before...at KM...

Dadi is waiting for Maan...Maan has some urgent meeting and Nakul has already set the table for breakfast...Maan mostly skips his breakfast in such times, so Dadi is here to make sure he eats his food...

Munshiji has also come earlier and is also waiting for Maan...

Dadi finds him unusually sad...

Dadi: Munshiji, kya baat hai? Pinky kaisi hai?

Munshi: Pinky bilkul teek hai dadima

Dadi: phir aap itna pareshaan kyun ho?

Munshiji: mujhe ek choti si madat chahiye dadiji

Dadi: munshiji, kahiye, kya hua?

Munshiji: woh...mujhe kuch paison ki zaroorat hai

Dadi smiles...

Dadi: bas itni si baat? Aap Maan se poochthe toh wahi aapko paison dethe

Maushiji: lekhin dadiji

Munshiji hesitates...

Dadi: aap Maan ko jaanthe haina? Woh toh kabhi mana nahi karenge

Munshi: par dadiji, ye toh bada rakham hai

Dadi now understands why munshiji is worried...must be some big problem...

Dadi: teek hai teek hai, kitne paise chahiye aapko?

Munshi: 5 lakh

Dadi: 5 lakh?

Munshi: haan dadiji

Dadi: kya baat hai munshiji? Aap ne Pinky ki shadhi toh nahi karwa rahe ho? woh toh abhi bachi hai, abhi abhi school complete kiya hai, let her join college, shadhi ki kya jaldhi?

Munshi: ye paise Pinky ki shadhi ke liye nahi, kissi aur ki shadhi ko rokhne ke liye hai

Dadi: munshiji, aap ko patha haina? Kissi ki shadhi ko thodna bahut badi paap hai

Munshi: par ye shadhi hothi toh woh usse bhi bada paap hoga

Dadi: aap ko kya ho gaya hai? mujhe kuch bhi samaj mein nahi aatha

Munshi breaks down...

Dadi is also worried...

Munshi: mujhe kissi bhi kimat mein iss shadhi ko rokhna hi padega, Ranno ke liye nahi toh bhi kam se kam Geet ke liye toh mujhe ye kaam zaroor karna hoga

Dadi: kya kaha aapne? Geet?

Munshiji: haan dadiji, wahi Geet, hummare Ranno ki beti

Ranno is Munshi's cousin...

Dadi: Geet ki shadhi? Lekhin woh bhi Pinky ke umar ke hi hogi, itne badi ho gayi hai kya?

Dadi remembers the past...

                                                          Part - 5

As Dadi goes back to her past memories of Hoshiarpur, she gets upset...

Munshiji knows everything about dadi...he waits for Dadi...

Dadi: woh...Geet ab itni badi ho gayi?

Munshiji: haan dadiji, Geet aur Pinky ek hi umar ke hai, aur mere liye toh Geet bhi Pinky ki tarah ek beti hi hai, issilie mein usske saath ye nainsaafi hone nahi de saktha

Dadi: aap jaldhi bathayiye, Geet ko kya hua?

Munshi: dadiji, aap uss Mohinder ko jaanthe haina? Ek no ka kamina hai woh

Dadi: haan humme patha hai, kuch zyada hi pitha hai

Munshi: sirf pinne ki baat nahi hai, ab toh woh sare gandhe kaam kartha hai

Dadi: aaise kya kiya ussne?

Munshi: Mohinder ne uss lalachi Mandeep se thoda thoda karke 2 lakh ki uthar liya hai, ab woh 2 lakh badhkar 5 lakh ho gayi, ab uss karche ko chukane ke liye uss budde kamine se Geet ki shadhi karwane ki vada kiya hai uss ullu ke patte ne, aur toh aur uss 50 saal ke budde ki shadhi ki umar ki 3 3 jawan bete bhi hai

Dadi: lekhin ye toh bahut galat hai

Munshiji: haan dadiji, aap pehle mujhe 5 lakh dedijiye, mere paas waqt bahut kam hai, mujhe aaj hi Hoshiarpur jaana hoga

When Geet got to know about this she first revolted against this marriage...

But that cunning Mohinder went to Amritsar and started accusing her mausi's family for kidnapping his daughter and not letting her to come with him...he even threatened to file a complaint at the police station that they have forcefully taken away his daughter from him...he told Geet that if she is not going to agree for the wedding he will put her uncle and aunty behind the bars...

Geet got frightened as she did not want her uncle and aunty to be ashamed...she is very grateful for all they have done for her, for raising her as their own daughter and loving her more than their own children, Lucky and teji...her uncle was not willing to let her go...he didn't want Geet to suffer...but he didn't have the money to give Mohinder...

Moreover that old fox Mandeep had political links and also friendship with the gundas...

He could do anything to her mausi's family to blackmail Geet, Geet is not ready to put them in trouble...and Teji is also not here, he has gone to his duty in the army...he is a jawaan...Lucky is too young...

Geet made her mind to agree to her name sake papa's deal if he promises not to trouble her family...

She considers her aunty and uncle mom and dad...Geet's papaji(uncle) is also determined to stop this marriage...he has already come to Hoshiarpur and is trying hard to help Geet...

Munshi has promised Geet's uncle to somehow arrange the money...

And here he is seeking dadi's help to save Geet's life...

Dadi: aap fikar mat kijiye, hum abhi paise lekhe aathe hai

Maan just comes...

Maan: dadi, koi problem?

Dadi: Maan bte, humme abhi 5 lakh chahiye

Maan: teek hai dadima, mein KC puhunchthe hi cheque sign karke Adi ke haath bhijwatha hoon

Maan sends the cheque and Munsiji takes it to Mandeep...but his son refuses to accept the cheque...

He gets angry that Mohinder has made a promise and he should fulfill it at any cost...he tears the cheque and warns munshi never to mess with him again...

Munshiji calls dadi and tells what happened...

Dadi: kya hua munshiji? Geet teek haina? Aap unko yaha lekhe aayiye

Munshi: nahi dadiji, mujhe nahi lagtha ki ab hum iss shadhi ko rokh sakthe

Dadi: what? aap aaise kaise keh sakthe?

Munshi tells what happened...

Dadi: hummare hothe hue hummari Geet ko kuch nahi hoga, hum abhi paise lekhe aathe hai, aap tayaar rahiye, humme jaise bhi ye shadhi ko rokhna padega, chahe toh hum police ki madat bhi lethe hai

Munshi: usski koi faida nahi hai, yahan sab uss budde ke chamche hi hai

Dadi: hum bhi dekhthe hai ki kisski himmat hai humme rokhne ki, hum Lalaji ki pathni hai, kash aaj Lalaji hothe

Dadi immediately calls Maan to send her cash...

Maan: par dadima, meinne cheque dediya haina?

Dadi: Maan bte, hum aapko badh mein sab samjaadenge, humme abhi hoshiarpur jaana padega, hum abhi nikalthe hai, hum KC aake cash lethe hai

Dadi's sounds worried...Maan is also worried for dadi...

At KC...

Maan: dadima, ye lijiye, 10 lakh

Dadi: par humne toh sirf 5 lakh manga tha

Maan: mujhe laga ki aap koi zaroori kaam ke liye jaa rahe hai, issiliye toh meinne socha ki zyada paison ki zaroorat padhi toh

Dadi: very well bte, ye apne bahut achcha kiya, toh hum chalthe hai, munshiji humaara intrezaar karthe honge

Maan: par dadima, aap ko kyun jaana hai, Adi haina? Woh paise lekhe jaayega

Dadi: nahi bte, ye hummare personnel problem hai, humme kudh jaana padega

Maan: lekhin dadima, mein aapko akhele kaise jaane de saktha?

Dadi: hum koi bache thodi nahi

Maan: mein bhi aapke saath aatha hoon, chaliye

Dadi: humne bhi yahi socha tha, humme aapki zaroorat padegi, woh log samajthe kya apne aapko? Lalaji nahi hai toh unka potha haina? MSK

Maan is also very proud of his dadu, haina? So he is also ready to save the family name...

On the way Maan keeps thinking about what the problem would be...

He had never seen dadi so worried for a long time...that too worried about something else other than Maan's life and marriage...that has always been her constant worry...but this is something new which only she knows...maybe Mushji has got some money problem...

Next morning...Maan and dadi go to Mandeep's house where the wedding is scheduled to take place...

They have just arrived in time for the wedding party...

Maan kind of understands the situation...he is sure that it's someone's wedding seeing the preparations and the party...

So Dadi wants to help some girl get married, she has come with the money for the dowry...Maan doesn't like this at all...what kind of people would still give dowry to get their daughters married...

Moreover Maan thinks that it's a waste of money spending so much for a wedding, and on top of it this dowry...Maan gets angry right away but keeps his cool for dadi's sake...

Munshiji had been waiting for dadi...he comes to receive dadi...

He had also called the sarpanch and told about dadi's arrival with the money...

Dadi gives the money to sarpanchji...

Dadi: sarpanchji, iss mein 10 lakh hai, aapko jaise bhi iss shadhi ko rokhna padega, patha nahi aapke hothe hue bhi Hoshiarpur mein aaise galthiyan kaise hothe, aaj Lalaji zinda hothe toh koi aaise galat kaam karne ki sochtha bhi nahi

Sarpanchji bows his head in shame...he is so powerless...

Sarpanch: aap sahi kehthe hai Savithriji, Lalaji ke jaane ke badh toh yahan sab kuch badal gaya, aur aajkal inn kaminon ka raaj hi chaltha, koi unko kuch nahi kar sakthe, mein bhi

Sharpanch is ashamed of himself...

He calls Mandeep and his sons to hand over the money...

But they start arguing that it's all over now and no one can stop the marriage...

Dadi even tries to convince them by giving them double the money...but this doesn't seem to se working...this man is after Geet and not the money...kamina...

                                                              Part - 6

Meanwhile Maan comes after parking the car and he spots the Dulhan trying to jump off the window...

He thinks that this girl is trying to jump to her death, he rushes to stop her...

Maan: ohh ladhki, rukhjao, kya kar rahi ho?

Geet: hatt jao

Maan: hare pagal, tumme patha bhi hai ki yahan kya ho raha hai? dadima ne isske shadhi ke liye kitna kuch kiya hai aur issko dekho

Maan thinks that she doesn't know that her dowry money has been arranged and that there is no problem with her marriage now...

Geet ne toh faisla kar hi liya hai toh ab ussko koi nahi rokh saktha...Maan bhi nahi...

She is hanging in the middle with the help of a rope...ready to jump...

And the rope is too thin and it breaks ...Geet falls from the top and Maan runs to catch her...

But Maan couldn't get her and she falls on him...Luckily she escapes...

Why not? She has been cushioned by Maan, haina?

Her babaji always saves her somehow...and Maan has been his messenger always...

Geet tries to get off and run away from that place soon...before she gets caught by the gundas...

Maan holds her back and stops her...

Maan: hare, rukho, tum marjaathi toh mera 10 lakh ka kya hoga?

Geet thinks that he has also lended money to his father...

Geet: kya? tumne 10 lakh diya?

Geet thinks that he is also one of those cheap rouges trying to buy her with money...

Maan: ab tum bhaag nahi sakthi

Geet: tum mujhe rokh nahi sakthe, ye meri zindagi hai, aur mujhe patha hai ki kya karni

Maan: agar tumme aaisa hi karna tha toh pehle hi karthi, kamakaam dadi ko kyun pareshaan karthi?

Geet: kaunsi dadi? Tumme koi galat fami hui hai, chodo mujhe

Maan: phir mein dadi ko kya jawab doonga?

Geet: ab ye dadi kaun hai?

Maan: abhi patha chalega

Maan lifts her and takes her in...

Geet: hare bachao...koi mujhe bachaooo, koi dulhan ko lekhe jaa raha hai, koi nahi hai kya? kahan mar gaye hai sare gunde ab?

Shadhi ke ghar haina? Sab khane chale gaye...

Geet keeps on shouting...one babaji who hears her voice comes to help her...

Babaji: Geeet, Geeet beta, chodo usse

Maan stops seeing that sadu...he puts her down...

Babaji: beta, tum teek toh haina?

Geet: ji, par aap?

Geet had not seen him before...whoever it is, he is her savior now...she has to seek his help...

Babaji: hummare baat chodo

He turns towards Maan...

Babaji: aaj ye nahi aatha toh patha nahi tera kya hotha? Hare beta, meujhe patha nahi tum kaun ho? par zaroor babaji ne hi tumme bheja hai hummari Geet ko bachane ke liye

Maan: mujhe yahan kissi ne nahi bheja

Maan keeps staring Geet...he is very angry...

He thinks that all this trouble is just b'coz of her...

Babaji: Geet beta, ab yahi tummare madat kar sakthe hai

Geet: ye?

Geet stares Maan...

Maan: aap kaun ho? mujhe toh shak hai ki aap asli sadu hai ya nahi?

Babaji starts shivering...

Babaji: Geet, hummare paas aao beta, ab yahi hai tumme bachane wala, babaji ko sab patha hai

He quickly grabs Geet's hands and hands her to Maan...

Babaji: Geet beta, issko mat chodna, yahi tera sahara hai, bagwaan aapki Jodi ko banaye rakhe

Babaji aashirvaad bhi dethe...

Maan takes off his hands suddenly...

He hears dadi's voice...dadi is still arguing with that old man...

Someone is trying to push her off...

Maan runs to help dadi...

Geet tries to run off, but babaji stops her...

Babaji: Geet beta, ab aapko aklele bhaagne ki koi zaroorat nahi, aapko apna humsafar milgaya, dilwale dulhaniya le jayenge

Babaji winks...Geet thinks that this babaji is mad...

Geet: babaji

Babaji: ji beta

Geet stares him...aapko nahi, mere babaji ko bhula rahi hoon

Geet: babaji, ye aap kya kar rahe ho?

Maan runs and punches that fellow...

He falls down...Maan fights with them...

Those men were no match for our mighty MSK and they run for their lives...

Mandeep is left alone as his sons have also run away b'coz of fear...

Mandeep is also frightened and he escapes after taking the money leaving Geet alone...

Dadi is very happy that Maan has come at the right time...

If it were any other day dadi would have got Maan and Geet married off in this same mandap...

But Mohinder is not at all happy...

Mohinder: ab meri beti ka kya hoga? Aur meri izzat ko toh tumne mitti mein miladhi, ab sab ke samne tumne mere muh kala kardhi

Maan: ye aapki problem hai, dadima, chaliye, ab hum yahan ek sec bhi nahi rukh sakthe

Mohinder: ab meri Geet ko kaun shadhi karega? Tum aaise nahi jaa sakthe

Maan: dadima, meinne pehle hi kaha ki aapko yahan nahi aana chahiye, ye sab pagal log hai

Some of the people there get offended and surround Maan...

People: tum shahari log humme kya samajthe? Aap log aaise hummare ladhki ki zindagi barbad karke bachke nahi jaa sakthe

Maan gets angry...

Maan: abhi tum log hatjao mere rasthe se, warna

Maan folds his fist tight...

Dadi stops him...

Dadi: Maan bte, ye sahi nahi hai

Maan: dadi, aap inke bathon mein nahi padiye, ye log unpad gawar hai

This irritates them more...

They catch hold of Maan...: hum bhi dekhthe hai ki tum yahan se kaise jaathe?

Dadi thinks of a plan...this is the opportunity she's been waiting for...

She can make Maan marry Geet...

Mohinder: haan, ab tum meri beti ko kya jawab dethe ho?

Mohinder plans to blackmail them and get a lump money...

Dadi: aap log shaanth ho jayiye, hum kahin nahi bhaagnewale, aap log chodiye mere pothe ko, sarpanchji aap hi bathayiye hum kaun hai

Sarpanchji: tum log inko kaise bhool gaye? Ye Lalaji ke pothe hai

They all step back immediately...

Babaji enters the field now...

Babaji: ab kya hoga? Inko hi Geet se shadhi karna padega, haina dadiji?

Dadi is just waiting for this...

Dadi: ab aaplog ko yahi sahi lagtha toh hum kya kar sakthe?

Maan: dadiii?

Dadi: Maan bte, ab hum badein baat kar rahe haina?

Mohinder is disappointed...

Sarpanchji: tum kya kehthe ho Mohinder?

Babaji: isse kyun poochthe ho? ye Geet ka baap hi nahi hai

Mohinder feels insulted...

Mohinder: Geet meri beti hai, haan, ab isse hi Geet se shadhi karna padega

Maan: ye kaise bakwaas hai?

Babaji: ab yahi babaji ki marzi hai toh hum insaan kya kar sakthe?

Maan: what? ye uss babaji ki nahi iss nakli babaji ki marzi hai? mein koi shadhi nahi kar saktha

Mohinder: savithriji aap chup kyun hai?

Dadi: par ye toh Maan ki zndagi hai

Dadi is still afraid that Maan would never accept this...

Mohinder: aapne kya sochke Mandeep ko paise diya? Aur usse kyun bhagaya?

Dadi: hum sirf Geet ki madat karna chahathe hai

Mohinder: Svithriji, meinne appke barein mein kya socha tha? Lekhin aap mein aur uss mandeep mein koi farak nahi hai, aap bhi uske tarah paison se dusron ki dindagi mein khelna chahthe ho, aapko iss bechari ladhki ki koi kadar nahi hai

Dadi feels very bad for Geet...

Maan stares Geet and she stares him back too...

                   Part - 7

Babaji: zindagi mein pehle bar Mohinder ne achche baat kiya hai, ab aap log bhi maan jao, ye shadhi hi ab Geet ki aakri umeed hai, kal koi 20 lakh lekhe aatha toh iss bachi ka kya hoga? Kissi ne isske bavishya ke barein mein socha?

Babaji senti ho jaathe...emotional hatyachaar...

Maan: dadi, ye log humme fasana chahathe hai, aap chaliye

Geet: haan, mein kissi se bhi shadhi nahi karoongi, sab chale jao yahan se

Babaji: Geet, aaise nahi kehthe, tum bachi ho, tumme ye sab samaj mein nahi aayega, tum thode dher chup raho

Geet gets angry...

Babaji: dadi aap apne pothe ko samjayiye, mein Geet ko samjaatha hoon, Geet , aao mere saath

Babaji takes Geet with him to a nearby room...

He takes off his fake wig and shows his face...

It's none other than Geet's papaji, Maninder...

Geet: papaji, aap

Geet goes and hugs him...

He had come here to save her...but Maan has already done his job...papaji ke paas na hi paise hai aur na hi takat...he is very confident that Maan is the one who could keep his Geet happy lifelong...

Babaji: Geet, hummari baat ko manjao beta, yahi teri zindagi hai, tum issi ladhke se shadhi karlo, ye tumme hamehsa kush rakhega, isse toh mera sab se bada bhoj halka ho jaega

Geet: toh mein aapke liye bhoj ban gayi hoon?

Babaji: aaisa nahi hai beta, ab isse ahcchi zindagi mein tere liye kahan se la saktha hoon?

Geet: mujhe koi shadhi nahi karni, mujeh aap ke saath lekhe jao paaji, mujhe aapke paas hi rehni

Babaji: nahi Geet, ab tum choti nahi ho, tummari shadhi ke umar ho gayi hai, ye Mandeep nahi toh kal koi aur aajayega, phir hum kya kar sakthe?

Geet starts to think...

Babaji: yahi achcha moka hai, babaji ne hi iss bande ko bheja hai, tumme apne papa pe barosa haina?

Geet: haan

Babaji: toh sirf aaj mere baat manjao, aur isse shadhi karlo, yahi iss budde papa ki sapna tha, teri shadhi ek achche insaan se hojaye

Babaji is in tears...Geet is moved...

Geet: teek hai papaji, aap ro mat

Dadi: Maan bte, ab hummare paas koi aur rastha nahi hai

Maan: lekhin dadi, aap uss ladhki ke liye itna kuch kyun karna chahthe ho?

Dadi: she is very unlucky, poor Geet, she lost her mother at birth and now she is at the mercy of her drumken useless father, now her fate is in your hands, if you wish you could save her life else...it's all her fate, no one can overcome fate, kher, ye aapki zindagi hai beta, hum kuch nahi kar sakthe

Maan begins to think...dadi's words disturb him a lot...she said that if he wishes he can chande Geet's fate, fate...yes fate is his deadliest enemy, that fate which had always triumped him, made his life miserable, that fate which snatched all his loved ones...now here is a chance to defeat fate, he might not been able to overcome his ill fate, but he could turn the ill fate of a poor girl upside down, it feels good to help someone who is as unfortunate as himself...he had no one to help...but he can help this girl...Maan decides to help her...the only way to help her get out of this mess is to marry her, fake marriage, she is only a minor, just to fool the villagers, then once they reach Delhi he can find her a safe place to live till she can support herself...

Maan: teek hai dadi. Mein ussko madat karne ke liye tayaar hoon

Dadi immediately takes him to the mandap where Geet was waiting and got them married...

That's how they got married, with babaji's aashirvaad...

That evening itself they set out to Delhi and they came to Delhi past mid-night...

No one slept that night and it took them some time to come back to reality...

It all seemed like a dream...yes, it's a dream come true for Geet, that dream that she hasn't even dreamt about...

At KC...

Maan is back after his marriage(?)...

His marriage news has spread like wild fire and it's the talk of KC now...

No one knows how to react to this pleasant surprise...

Hare! Maan sir ki shadhi ho gayi...sure it's a big disappointment for the young girls...

Sabko lagtha ki aaj ke din chutti aur shamko ghar pe party hogi...

But Maan surprises them coming to office on time...

Everyone is shocked to see him at KC, but that's MSK...it's nothing unusual...

Tasha: Adi, ye driver bhi na? kyun kamakam humme pareshaan kar raha hai?

Driver signals Maan's arrival as usual...

No one is in a mood to listen, they are busy discussing tonight's wedding party...

Maan enters KC in style...

Everyone runs to their seats...

Adi is stranded in the middle...he is blocking Maan...

Maan stares Adi...

Maan: Adiii

Adi: co co congrats Maan sir...

All the staff eagerly looks at Maan...

Maan frowns...: what?

Adi: ohhh...gu gu gud morning sir

Maan: Adi, kya dekh rahe ho? mujhe pehle dekha nahi hai kya? hatjao rasthe se

Just then a balloon bursts and it rains flowers...

All of them clap...it's celebration time...but not for Maan...

Maan is already tensed...this doesn't help in anyway...

Maan ka gussa aur badjaatha...

Maan: ye ho kya raha hai mere office men?

Maan looks at Adi for an answer...Adi is shivering...

Adi: woh...shadhi Mubarak ho sir

Maan: shadhi? Kaise shadhi? Munshijiii

Maan shouts at the top of his voice...

Maan thinks that it's all munshiji's fault...

He had even informed the staff...how dare?

Poor mushiji, he is hiding from Maan...

The rest of the staff already knew that this would be Maan's reaction, so they get back to their routine...

Maan: Adiii, munshiji kahan hai?

Adi: munshiji...sir munshiji?

Maan: haan, munshiji

Adi: mushiji, munshiji, munshiji toh yahi the

Maan: why are you shouting in my ears? Go find him, at once?

Adi: ji sir

Adi finds munshiji...he is hiding in the files room...

Adi: munshiji, aap yahan kya kar rahe ho? Maan sir aapko doondh rahe hai?

Mushi: ye lo, ye Maan sir ko dedo, mein chaltha hoon

Adi: hare, aaise kaise jaathe? Maan sir aapko bhula rahe hai, mein aake bina nahi jaa saktha, aap mujhe marwayenge kya?

Munshi: mujhe ek zaroori kaam hai, mujhe abhi ghar jaana hai

He is shivering and sweating...

Maan just comes...

Munshiji turns pale seeing him...

Adi: sir, ye lijiye

Maan looks at the resignation letter...

Maan: munshiji, aap mere cabin pe aayiye

Maan leaves and munshi follows him...

Maan: ye kya hai?

Munshi: woh, ab mein budda ho gaya hoon, mere aakhen karab ho haye hai

Maan: aapke aakhen nahi aapke dimag karab ho gaya hai

Munshi: Maan bte

Maan: aap bhaag jaathe toh sab kuch teek ho jayega kya?

Munshiji blinks...

Maan: aap ke jaane se kuch nahi badakne wala

Munshi: par ye toh meri hi galthi hai

Maan: haan, ye aapne teek kaha, galthi karthe ho toh saza bhi pukadna padega, haina?

Munshi: saza? Mujhe koi bhi saza mansoor hai

Maan: aap ne hi mujhe iss shadhi ki dramein mein fasaya haina? Ab aap hi mujhe isse bahar bhi nikalloge, samje aap?

Munshi: lekhin Maan bte, hum kya kar sakthe?

Maan: woh ladhki aapki pathiji haina?

Munshi: haan

Mann: toh aap hi ussko pana ghar lekhe jao, woh KM mein ek din bhi aur nahi reh sakthi, samje aap?

Munshi: mere ghar?

Maan: haan, Aapka ghar

Munshi: mein ussko kaise lekhe jaatha? Agar uske baap ko patha chaltha toh! Nahi nahi, ye nahi ho skatha

Maan: kyun nahi ho saktha?

Munshi: mere ghar mein bhi ek beti hai, agar uss nikambe ne kuch kadbad kardhi toh meri beti ki zindagi bhi barbad ho ajyegi

Maan: toh mein kya kar saktha? Aap ussko hoshiarpur wapas bhi nahi bhaj sakthe ho? aap hi bathao, hum uss ladhki ka kya karein?

Munshi thinks that it's your wife, how would I know?

Munshi: par Maan bte, ab toh Geet aapki pathni ho gayi hai

Maan: munshijiii

Maan shouts...ye baat sun sunkke Maan ka BP raise hothe jaatha hai...

All the staff hear Maan shouting and they are scared that they would also be not spared...

Adi: aaj toh munshiji gaye

Tasha: thank god, ab uss munshi ji ki chutti

Adi: itn bhi kush hone ki zaroorat nahi hai, agla no. toh tummari hi hai

Tasha: what? Adi, this ia not fair, ye tuoh tum sabne milkke kiya hoga

Adi: kya? meinne kuch nahi kiya

Tasha: silly you...aaj toh DD se koi bhi bach anhi sakthA

Adi: that's true

Munshiji keeps mum...

Maan: munshiji, zyada sochiye mat, ye koi shadhi wadhi nahi, ye sirf ek natak hai, samje aap?

Munshi: lekhin Hoshiarpur mein sab ko lagtha hai ki aapki shadhi ho gayi hai, Geet ke saath

Maan: ye aapke Hoshiarpur nahi delhi hai, aur woh ladhki abhi bhi minor hai, this is not a legal wedding

Munshi: par Maan bte

Maan: munshiji, ab mein aap se sala nahi mang raha hoon, aap bas uss ladhki ko yahan se lekhe jao, aaapke koi rishtedar ya usske koi dhoor ke rishtedar honge, usske paas issko bhejdo, paison ki koi problem nahi hai, kitne paise chahiye? Mein dedhoonga

Munshi: par baat paison ki nahi hai

Maan: then what's your problem? You did all this drama only for money, they wanted to marry her off to that old rascal just for money

Maan is still very angry with that budda...

Munshi: lekhin ab toh mamla bahut nazook hai, ab log samajthe hai ki Geet ki shadhi achche se ho gayi, aur Geet ab sahi jagah pohunchgayi hai

Maan: mujhe kissi ki parva nahi hai, log kya soch the ya kya karthe, mujhe sirf ussko jaise bhi yahan se bhejna hai, samjhe aap?

Munshi: toh hum Geet ko Amritsar bhej sakthe hai

                      Part - 8

Munshiji: hum Geet ko Amristar bhej sakthe

Maan looks doubtful...he looks at Munshji...

Maan: aap kya kehthe hai? Amristar?

Munshiji: haan, Geet wahi jaa sakthi hai

Maan is happy to hear that...

Maan: Amritsar? Wahan kaun hai?

Munshi: hare aapko patha nahi? Geet ki mausi wahan rehthe hai

Maan wonders how come he would know about Geet...

Maan: achcha?

Munshi: infact,Geet bhi wahi rehthi hai, apne mausi ke saath

Maan: toh ussko Hoshiarpur aane ki kya zaroorat padi?

Munshiji explains the whole story...

Maan wanted to change her fate, that is save her from that mishap, save her from that marriage, he didn't wish to change her life, let her in his life, he knew that this girl is too young for marriage and for him it's only a drama, a fake marriage to fool the villagers...

His only intention was to save her for that moment, just like you save someone's life when you see their life in danger...that doesn't mean you take up that person's responsibility for the rest of their life too...haina?

It's just a humanitarian act, any one would have done that...

Now Maan feels pity for this girl, but still he is not ready to keep her in Delhi...

He is a little relieved that she has a place to stay...

Maan: toh aap Geet ko usske mausi ke paas chodke aayiye

Munshiji: mein? Mein kaise?

Maan also thinks that it may not be wise to send Geet with munshiji for he would bring her back to Delhi after her family convincs him that Geet is Maan's bride now and she is a Khuarana bahu...

Maan: nahi, aap pe koi barosa nahi, aap rehne dijiye, ye kaam toh sirf mein kar saktha, aap sirf hummare jaane ki tayaariyan kijiye, iss weekend ko

Munshi: achcha beta, ab mein chaloon?

Maan: teek hai, aap jaa sakthe hai...

Munshiji walks away quickly...he is still not happy to send Geet back, after all he is also very happy for her that finally she is lucky to have married into the Khurana's with such a loving daadisaas, Savithriji...

Munshiji knows that Dadi would not let Geet return home and he should inform about Maan's plans to dadi immediately...

Dadi had been expecting something like this from Maan but she didn't know that Maan would want her to go back, she thought she can convince Maan to let Geet stay in the OH without disturbing him and then Dadi can start her mission, to bring them closer...

But now that Geet won't be here, Maan would conveniently forget Geet in his work...

Dadi ne kya socha aur ye kya ho raha hai?

Dadi, it's not so easy to fool MSK...ab toh babaji hi kuch kar sakthe hai, dadi starts praying for her bahu...

At KM...dinner time...

Geet has already finished her dinner and left to sleep...she doesn't want to confront Maan...

So she has gone to her hide out(OH) before the lion returns to it's den...

Dadi eagerly looks at Maan...yes...he is looking out for Geet...

That's a good improvement...

Dadi pretends to ignore that...

Dadi: toh Maan bte, apne pasta liya?

Maan: ji dadi

Dadi slowly opens the topic...Maan seems to be in a good mood...

Why not? He has found a solution for his problem, haina?

Dadi: toh Maan bte, aapne kya socha hai?

Dadi wants to hear what munshiji told from Maan, she acts as if she is not aware of it...

Maan: aap kya baat kar rahe hai dadi?

Who knows dadi better than Maan...

Dadi: woh...aapke shadhi ke barein mein?

Maan: dadima, ye shadhi nahi pareshaani hai

Dadi: aaise mat kahiye bte, agar Geet sunthe toh unko bahut bhura lagega

Actually dadi ko hi bahut bhura laga, Geet ko bhi ye shadhi pareshaani hi lagthi...

Only dadi is happy with this marriage...

Maan: par ab toh sara problem katam ho gaya

Maan is so relieved...

Dadi: that's good, toh ab Geet yahi rahenge, hummare paas

Maan: what? never

Dadi: Maan bte?

Maan: Geet toh apne ghar jaa rahi hai

Dadi: lekhin Geet ab hummari bahu hai

Dadi plays the sentiment card which has zero effect on MSK as usual...

Maan: dadimaaa, aap phir se shuru mat kijiye

Dadi: hum toh bas sachayi ko aapke samne lane ki koshish kar rahe hai bte

Maan: kausi sachayi? Ye shadhi toh jootie hai, ek toh sirf an accident tha, humme issko ek bhura sapna mankke bhool jaana chahiye

Dadi: aap ke liye ye bhura sapna hoga, hummare liye toh ye dream come true hai

Maan: aap aaise sapne kyun dekhthe ho jo sach nahi ho saktha, aksar sapne sach nahi hothe

Dadi: par humne suna hai ki sapne bhi sach hothe hai, haina guys?

Maan: meinne toh sapne dekhna bhi chod diya

Maan becomes sad...dadi just wants to change this, wants her Maan to start dreaming again, start living again with all the happiness he has lost since his childhood...

Dadi: Maan bte

Dadi tires to console him by holding his hands...

Maan: dadi meinne faisla kiya hai ki Geet apne ghar wapas jayegi

Dadi: Hoshiarpur? Uss kamine ke paas?

Dadi pretends to be shocked...

Maan: aapko patha hai dadi? Geet Hoshiarpur mein nahi Amritsar mein rehthi hai

Dadi: achcha?

Maan: haan, apne mausi ke saath

Dadi: haan bte, humme toh abhi abhi yaad aaya, humne bhi suna hai ki Geet apne mausi ke yahan rethe hai

Maan: toh aapne pehle kyun nahi bathaya?

Dadi: hare, hum iss umar mein sab kuch bhool jaathe haina?

Maan: aap sach mein bhoo gaye ho ya phir?

Maan looks at dadi in suspicion...

This dadi can do anything for her Maan's happiness...even Maan knows that...

Dadi: ab toh hummare dil ke saath saath dimag bhi kamzoor ho gaya hai

Maan: mujhe sab patha hai dadi, aapka dil aur dimag donn kitne tez chalthe

Dadi: Maan bte, kyun na hum Geet ko apne saath rakhe?

Maan: kyun dadi?

Dadi: ab toh hum aksar bimar padjaathe, humme bhi kissi ki saath ki zaroorat hai, aur aapke paas to hiss budde dadi ke liye waqt hi kaha hai?

Maan: ab aaise nahi hoga, mein hamesha appke paas hi rahoonga

Dadi: kal hi koi naya project aayega toh aap udjaooge

Maan: nahi dadi, ab hum sirf yahan ka projects accept karenge, ab mujhe apne dadi se badkar kuch nahi hai

Maan also has relised that dadi is feeling alone just like him, atleast he keeps himself busy with all his work, poor dadi she stays alone all day...

Dadi: toh aap ne faisla kar liya hai?

Maan: haan dadi, ab Geet yahan nahi reh sakthi

Dadi: kyun nahi reh sakthi?

Maan: kyunki ye mera ghar hai, aur mein nahi chahatha ki woh yahan rahe

Dadi: toh ab ye aapka ghar ban gaya hai? hummara nahi?

Maan: dadima, ab toh apna drama band kijiye, ab isski koi faida nahi, Geeet...Geeet

Dadi: Geet toh sone chale gaye

Maan: itne jaldhi?

Dadi: humme kya patha ki aapki biwi kitne bhaje sothe hai?

Maan: dadi, aap bar bar aaisa kyun kehthe ho?

Dadi: babaji, ye aapne kaise Jodi banayi? Ek toh biwi ko ghar se nikhalne ki plan kar rahe hai toh dusre toh inki shakal tak nahi dekhna chahathe

Maan: dadima, pls, ye bakwaas batein mat kijiye

Dadi: ab kya hum apne babaji se shikayat bhi nahi kar sakthe?

Maan: Geet kahan hai?

Dadi: aur kahan? OH mein hi honge, ab toh yahan sirf aapki marzi chalthi haina?

Maan: aap sojayiye,gud night, aapki dimag ko bhi thoda aaram dedo, ab kuch bhi sochke koi faida nahi

Maan leaves with a victorious grin on his face...

Even this is possible only b'coz of that Geet, dadi thinks like that...

Dadi has to do something, now her mind works double fast...she had to beat her grandson at this age...

Maan goes to the OH...he wants to convey her the good news first, kam se kam aaj raat toh chain se sojayegi, bechari do din se bahut pareshaan hai...

Maan ko apni pareshaani se zyada Geet ki pareshaani takleef dethi...

That's his taqdeer, Maan thinks that he could overcome his fate, but that's impossible...

Maan finds Geet's room locked...he knocks the door for he knows that she will be awake...

Yes, Geet is still awake thinking about her own plans to handle this situation...

She can think of only one easy way, that is to run away as she had already planned...

Geet is not ready to open the door...she is not willing to let in the trouble...

For her Maan is the only problem, she has not even bothered about all that wedding drama, for her too it's just a way to get rid of her father...

Geet: kaun hai?

Maan: mein hoon?

Geet: mein hoon kya mein hoon? Koi naam nahi hai kya?

Maan gets angry...he had come in such a good mood(?) and this girl always annoys him...

Maan: Geeet

Geet: hare babaji, ye toh Dhust danav hai, ye yahan kyun aaye hai?

Geet gets scared...

                     Part - 9

Maan: Geeet, mein hoon Maan Singh Khurana

Geet: jab dekho apna pura khandaan ko saath lekhe goomthe, Maan Singh Khurana, haan haan, mujhe patha hai

Maan: darwaza kholo

Geet: kyun?

Maan: meinne kahan darwaza kholo

Geet: nahi kholthi toh kya karoge?

Maan: Geet, jaldhi darwaza kholo, mujhe tumse kuch zaroori baat karni hai

Geet: itni bhi kya zaroori baat hai jo itne raat ko aap karna chahathe ho? baat toh kal subha bhi kar sakthe, haina babaji?

Maan loses his temper, he just tries to break open the door himself...

As he tries to smash in Geet opens the door thinking that she might need the door even after Maan leaves and how would she sleep with a broken door...

Maan couldn't control himself and he collides on Geet and they fall on the ground...

Maan falls on top of Geet...Geet is nervous...what's happening?

Why is he behaving like this? Is he drunk?

Geet is reminded of her drunken father...

Geet tries to push him off, but he is too heavy...

Maan stares Geet as if it's her fault...

Geet: bachao...koi bachaooo

She calls out for help once again...

This is ridiculous, this girl always embarrasses Maan...

She is the only one who has spoilt all his reputation...as a perfect gentleman...impeccable and formidable...

Maan shuts her mouth immediately...

Maan: chup...bilkul chup...

Maan gets up and tries to help her...

Geet wouldn't trust him...

She tries to get up herself and falls again...

Maan leaves her to help herself this time...

Geet gets on her legs ...she tries to put up a brave face...

She gets ready for a fight...

Geet: aap daru pikke aaye ho, haina?

She grabs all that she could and hurls at Maan...

Maan catches them and keeps moving forward towards her...

Geet keeps stepping back till Maan catches hold of her hands and bents them behind...

Maan: pagal ho gayi ho kya? mein hi bhool gaya tha, tu toh pehli hi pagal ho

Geet: kya? aap pagal ho? itne raat ko yahan kyun aaye ho? kal toh bahut ahchce banne ki natak karthe the, aaj apni asli chehra bahar aayana? Sare mard aaise hi hothe, mein sab jaanthi hoon

Maan: kya jaanthi ho?

Geet: sare ke sare kamine hi hothe hai

Maan: kya?

Geet: Dhust Danav, dhoor raho mujse, chodo mere haath

Maan: tujhe toh

Maan ties her hands with the duppatta and stuffs the rumaal in her fowl mouth...

Geet thinks that he has come with bad intentions...

Maan sighs in relief that he could talk in peace now...

Maan: ab apna khan kholke mere baat ko suno, tum yahan nahi reh sakthi

Geet thinks that who will want to live here with this sadu MSK...

Maan: mein tumme Amritsar lekhe jaatha hoon, tummare mausi ke ghar, tumme koi problem nahi haina?

Geet kaise jawab degi? But Geet is happy...

She tries to say something...

Maan takes off the rumaal...

Geet: sachi?

Maan: haan

Maan unties her hands too...

Geet jumps in joy...

Geet: aap sach kehthe haina? Aap mere mausi ko kaise jaathe? Dadi ne kaha hoga? Dadi bahut achche hai, unhonne hi aapko kaha hoga, haina?

Geet strats her bak bak...

Maan keeps listening to her...it's actually fun to watch her antics...

Geet: toh mein abhi samaan pack karthi hoon, pehle hi jaanthi toh samaan ko aaise hi rakhthi

Geet starts to look for the trolley...

Maan stops her...

Geet: hare, humme kal subha jaldhi nikhalna haina? Aap bhi tayaar hojao

She is so excited...

Maan: nahi

Geet: kya?

She is suddenly disappointed...is he trying to fool me?

Maan: hum kal nahi saniwaar ko jaathe hai

Geet: kyun? Kal hi jaathe haina?

Maan: mujhe kuch kaam hai yahan

Geet: toh mein chali jaathi hoon, mujhe station chod dijiye

Maan: nahi, tumme akhele jaane nahi de saktha

Geet: kyun? Mein chali jaoongi

Maan: meinne kaha na, mein bhi tummare saath aatha hoon

Geet: toh phir kal hi jaathe haina? Mujhe yahan nahi rehna

Maan: mein bhi yahi chahatha hoon ki tum yahan se jaldh hi chale jaaye, lekhin kya karein, aaise nahi ho saktha

Geet: kyun? Aap mujhe ullu bana rahe haina? Aap joot bol rahe hai

Geet becomes sad...

Maan: Maan Singh khurana kabhi joot nahi boltha, samji tum

Geet: achcha, ab Maan Singh Khurana ji , aap jao, mujhe sona hai

Maan: kya?

Geet: ye mera kamra hai

Maan: ohhh, ye ghar hi mera hai, samji tum

Maan tries to get in further...

Geet blocks his way...

Geet: ghar aapka hoga, par ye mera kamra hai, chale jao yahan se

Maan: nahi jaatha toh

Geet stares him...: toh

She thinks for a minute...Maan admires her kiddish expressions...

Geet: toh aap yahi raho, mein jaathi hoon, dadi ke paas

Geet starts to run...

Maan: nahi, rukho

Maan chases her...

Maan: Geet, dadi ko pareshaan nahi kar sakthi, rukhjao, abhi

Maan holds her back...

Geet: mujhe kyun rokhthe ho? ye aapka ghar hai, aap kahin bhi sojao, mein chalthi hoon apne dadi ke paas

Maan: tum aaise kuch nahi karogi, tum yahi raho, mein hi chaltha hoon

Geet: toh teek hai

Maan Singh Khurana ek ladhki se har gaya...

Maan starts to leave...

Maan: babaji, ye kaisi ladhki hai?

Geet: suno

Maan turns back...: ab kya hai?

Geet: wohh mujhe maaf kardho, meinne aapko galat samjha

Maan: ye koi nayi baat nahi hai, tum toh hamesha sabko galat hi smajhthi ho

Geet: kya?

Maan: ab apne ulte seehde soch ko band kardo aur sojao, yahan se bhaagne ki koshish mat karna

Geet: aapko kaise patha ki mein aaise sochoongi?

Maan: ye toh tummare chehre mein hi saaf saaf likha hai

Geet: aap chehra bhi padthe ho?

Maan smiles...

Geet: aap muskurathe bhi ho?

Geet is surprised...

Maan: gud night

Maan leaves and he is very happy after a long time...

That night too Maan couldn't sleep for a long time just like every other day...

But the only difference is that he is filled with happy memories of his encounters with Geet tonight and not with the dreadful memories of his past...
