I have till date watched so many weddings , with almost the same mantras being played out in the background, seen the same vidhis being repeated by so many couples on screen....................but to day when i watched Maan raise Geet's hand for the Kanyadan ceremony and touch it to his forehead.............................Maan filling up Geet's maang(with the mantra sarvamangalashu mangalya.........playing in the background)..................when he lifted the mangalsutra and tied that around her neck.......................all these took on a much deeper meaning for me, these age old traditions today being enacted by Maaneet today made me feel as if a sense of calm had descended on my heart..............for i had wanted to see this for such a long time now but even after thinking abt it for so long i couldn't have dreamt it to be so poignant or moving.

The ceremony..........Darji's appearence.....................Geet's mafi.......................the look that passed between Maan and Geet after the sindoor and mangalsutra.....................seemed to say.......... "I belong to u and u belong to me."
The way they were looking at each other during the pheras..............is beyond summarization.........................
Untill today their eye-locks were full of awareness and love for each other, but today it was all abt acceptance, belonging,trust,love and possisseveness..................and wonder that their wish to belong to each other has come true...........................
Thank u CVs for such a well thought out episode, realy Maaneet's wedding is not something that can be erased from my memory very soon.
Thank u DD and GC for acting so well that at times the line between reality and REELITY seemed to merge and become one.
