OVERDUE ANALYSIS: Thread 2 Link, p150 - Page 50

God! Dev just couldn't let it go could he? 😡😡

He had to kiss Geet and tell her he LOVED her just before he heartlessly abandoned her? What disgusting pleasure did he get out of playing this game till the last possible moment? It makes be want to gag and wring his neck at the same time. But in some ways I think Dev is kind of psychotic as we see him here. He has a huge inferiority complex with Maan and is now also angry with him, his wife thinks he is useless so he is feeling pretty insecure, which clearly manifests as angry outbursts. So I guess Geet's trust and innocence and her attitude of him being some sort of demigod to her must be so appealing to him that he can't resist milking it to the last minute.

**Insert Paro's "bad word"**

Pammi and Kamya both are a little loopy aren't they? Pammi seems to be practically hyperventilating at the thought of what they are going to do to Geet, with good reason of course. They could have really explored her being the second wife of Khurana saab and maybe seeing herself in Geet, who would now be abandoned and neglected.

I have watched the scene where Geet runs around the airport in a half-conscious state and I have to say it was one of DD's finest moments on the show. Her sheer panic and helplessness was devastating. However, it was truly a glimpse of her never say die attitude that she doesn't give up looking for them until she is unconscious and even then, the minute she gains consciousness she shouts for Dev again. 😭 This is not a girl to take no for an answer or resign herself to a bad situation. She will get to the bottom of things before she accepts anything. I love that about her character and that trait stays pretty constant as well.

I don't know if this symbolism is really corny but when Dev cuts the call from Geet's family, it sort of symbolised to me, him literally cutting her off from them, leaving her completely alone in the world. His act makes it impossible for her to go back to her family and he also abandons her.

@Mila: On Geet meeting Maan right after losing her virginity, I think it showed that he was the one who would bring out the individual and the fighter in her. She came out looking for Dev, because she felt lost without him, a sort of dependence, and she met Maan who provoked her to stand tall and defend herself, without anyone's help. It showed that he was different from all the men in her life and would be the one to snap her out of the vicious cycle of male dependency. Does that make sense?

@Z: I totally agree on the pace of the show! They did not waste a single minute of screentime on fillers or unnecessary things. These episodes are so well made that way, with each one being a stand alone master piece! I find it so hard to watch other shows regularly for that very reason. There is usually one good episode and a whole lot of fillers and it goes like that. So even shows that I like I usually watch the weekend marathon things while doing other stuff, just to keep up. But here you couldn't blink your eyes for fear of missing something, each scene was so action packed!

this is bindu joining in ...
i'm a person who can't bear the torture on women more than once... i started watching GHSP only after the office track came and that too sharing the remote with my hubby Jaan who used to be back early frm work those days. the craze to keep the monopoly over the remote came later.
i am kind of relieved that i did miss the early episodes ...god knows i wud have cried buckets ten...even now knowing what will follow doesn't stop the accelerated heartbeat...
Geet was such a sweet simple girl...the depiction of her character brought out with such clarity...
one can easily identify herself with this character thru DD's potrayal of it... the shyness of a new bride, the lack of confidence, the constant looking for reassurance, yet the concern for Pammi.
yet our sherni is there in the back ground in the way she manages to find a way to reach her husband...that dorment fighting spirit...
watching dev makes ur blood boil knowing what outcome came of his treachery. why did he have to say 'i love u?" and make her dream more even when he knew he was going to leave her???😡
@sam loved ur take on Geet meeting Maan after loosing her virginity to the devil.

Epi 19 shows d FINALE of Dev-NT masterplan.. the one they wer probably scheming for months now... the Final step...

 Ya sia till 300 episodes the story had moved wonderfully.  After honeymoon They shd have introduced maans younger brother  who works on behalf of pummy family conspire on maan. A strong villan.  They shd not give a wrong message to glorify dev after doing 5 serious crimes. was he so god that he escaped from all his crimes  so easily. After that CVs never bother to show live witnesses of this entire drama Geet's original family. who can easily prove his guilt.
  Sia many watched the show bcz it was the fastest moving story never wasted an episode till 250. after that   channel revamp issue started in feb 2011. In apr 2011 PH got that copy show slot in SP.  Old Cvs went away.rahul came asked us to forget logic see only magic, after that PH got another show in V-channel then they totally messed our show.
  Sia his crimes don't end there. Again  Nt has tampered the witnesses and clues of the crime. He is the one who has done it. so he say he has done it no court will leave the culprits. but he kept mum when she tampered the witnesses .  It is also a crime. Where is the point he has regreats for what he has done. Punishment and sending a better message to the society was imp than giving a HUM apke hai koun story after  simla trip.  The only vids I don't see are dev putting color to geet on holi. that is so YUCKKK.

Yeah Richa..
There was a visible decline in d storyline from feb onwards..
As it fans wer all riled up.. At Geet forgiving Dev.. d holi scene was like d last nail in the coffin.. N many of them gave up d show right after that..
The channel n PH were playing passing d parcel with blaming each other..
Whatever it was.. It was d fans who suffered.. Bcoz their most loved serial was being destroyed in front of their eyes.. N v could not do anything abt it..

 GUYS TODAY IS 20TH EPISODE 👍🏼[YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnoXYNR1HTw&feature[/YOUTUBE]

Recap: Geet looking back at Dev during their seven rounds; Naintara screaming that Dev is only her husband; Dev putting sindoor on Geet; Kamya telling Geet it's her last moments in India; Dev dropping the pills in Geet's coffee, watching Geet drink it, then spills it on her 'accidentally'; Geet coming back out of the bathroom and asking random people where Dev is...

The episode starts with Darji exclaiming that he knew that they wouldn't be able to connect to Geet. Rano & Mahinder look especially upset about that. Rajji takes Darji's glass, and walks away commenting that they didn't even let her talk to Geet. Dolly exclaims that they should have let Geet "talking" to them, and Nurpinder silences her, and gestures to Darji. 
To appease Rano - who's quite worried, Nurpinder suggests that they do a pooja for Geet's safe journey. Rano readily agrees.

The scene changes to Geet in a room with a security officer, who calls out for Dev Khurana. He then turns to Geet and asks her for her passport as she's going to Canada. Geet tries to explain that her husband has them.. but the officer doesn't stop questioning her for some form of papers. Geet is really fustrated, and she repeatedly tells him that the papers are with her husband. The officer remarks that it's not possible for her to get into the terminal without them. Geet starts feeling dizzy for a second, and the officer gets worried. He tells the female police officer to take her away, and Geet starts begging the officer to find her husband. Eventually she runs out of the room screaming for Dev.

The scene cuts back to the ladies of Geet's family, and Titu doing a pooja for Geet - with Rajji holding the thali.
A montage of Geet running down a corridor screaming for Dev, with officers running after her yelling at her to stop intersects with Geet's family doing a pooja - focusing on Rajji, Rano and Nurpinder. 
The montage stops with Geet being stopped before she goes through the terminal, and Rajji drops the thali - which scares Rano & Nurpinder to no end.

Geet is screaming for Dev, and the officer has had enough. He screams that Dev Khurana doesn't exist.. it is only a fiction of her imagination. Geet starts getting dizzy, and flashbacks of D&G are shown in reverse - the suhaag raat, the marriage, when Geet picks up a fistful of dirt, the rose scene & Dev saying I love you, the roka, the first meeting of D&G. 
She ends up fainting, and the doors open to Dev watching the drama unfold. Naintara comes up to him, and tells him that the tickets to Mumbai have been returned and that the plan has been completed. Dev repeats the plan is completed. Naintara tells Dev that they won. 
Cuts back to Geet who is murmuring Dev's name.

The next scene shows someone splashing water on Geet. Geet wakes up and calls "Dev!" She realises she's not at the airport, and asks where she is, and how she got here. The police officer taunts her, and asks her how she got into the airport with a boarding pass & a passport. She's a terrorist, isn't she?
Geet is shocked, and tells him that she got married the day before. The officer smirks that he already knows her story. He asks that if her husband was at the airport, where is he now? He also wonders about the fainting, what happened there? Geet stammers that she doesn't know how she got dizzy, and (what looks like) a prostitute cheekily tells the officer even she doesn't know how she got dizzy, maybe he could help her? 
Geet freaks out even more and implores the officer to let her go back to the airport to find Dev. Maybe if she could make one phone call.. and a female officer has had enough. She tells the male officer to bring Geet out.  
The officer asks her if she was going to Canada, if she was recently married, and if she'd like to call her husband. She allows the call, and as Geet is making the call, the officer tells her that they get cases like this all the time - the guy tells a girl's family they're from Canada; they marry them and then leave them at the airport. It's not connecting, so she is forced to call her home.

Back at Geet's house, the phone rings. Rano gets excited and exclaims that it must be Geet. Nurpinder admonishes her and tells Rano that it can't be Geet because to get to Canada, it takes 15-16hrs. Rano gets dejected, and Mahinder answers the phone. He says hello, and Geet answers "Papaji" and proceeds to sob. Mahinder is shocked.

Cut to Dev's house. Pammi is praying to Babaji for forgiveness as Kamya and Naintara are putting things into a suitcase. Pammi turns on them and tells them to fear God; that their deeds will be accounted for here; and warns them that one day Geet's family will find them. At this, Naintara walks up and tells Pammi for her to trust her children more, and that there is no way that Geet's family will find them.
Before they set out, Naintara, Kamya & Dev did their research, and chose the family that has the least respect for their women. No matter what happens, the girls are always blamed - and the men are always worried about marriage. According to Naintara, India's biggest problem is that men are more worried about their prestige than their daughters. She tells Pammi to stop crying as Dev will be here after freshening up, and Pammi should know that Dev doesn't like tears.

Cut to Dev washing his face, and getting himself ready - no more fake Dev. He walks out, and Naintara hands him a towel. He asks if the jewellery has all been sold, Naintara says they all gave different rates, so not yet; he asks about the land, and his wife tells him that the file is all there - and Kamya interrupts and says that the land has been sold. She then asks Dev if she could keep some jewellery, and Dev says "anything for my little sister". 
Hearing all this, Pammi starts praying even faster. She tries to tell them not to do this, and the three of them turn their heads away, exasperated with Pammi. Kamya mentions that Pammi has started the religion thing again, and goes after her. Naintara turns to leave as well but Dev grabs hold of her wrist.
He goes to touch her face, and she pushes it away. He mentions "aadeyin" (I don't know the exact meaning of it.. help), and Naintara tells him that she was worried that he had fallen for Geet's aadeyin instead. He looks sheepish and says well that was what she wanted him to do. But now Geet's story is over, and anyway, Dev's story is Naintara, "patni ji". 
They hug, and Naintara tells him that she had a suspicion that in making Geet fall for him, along the way he must have fallen for her. Dev thinks of Geet and their moments together as she says this (making me wonder that there might be slight redemption for him IF he becomes a good boy)...

Precap: Geet tells Mahinder that they should go looking for Dev - something must have happened to him, and Mahinder looks sad at this; Kamya says that Geet's jewellery is something else, and Pammi tells her off - Kamya's become fixated on the jewellery, and why is Kamya saying sister-in-law? Pammi tells them that Wahiguru (is that how you spell it?) will make them burn in hell..

Done. And done. 
I am so sickened by today's events. So upset.. and to think things like this really happen. :(
Anyway, hope ya liked the update.
Much love. Edited by richa23 - 12 years ago

 The dreadfulness of today's episode is beyond limits of what I can take and what my heart can take.

Geet episode 20:

Saddest episode till date.😭😭 I don't know how I sat through the first part. Geet is really brave. Like Samana said yesterday she would have literally run into the plane to find Dev if she could.It shows how much she trusts that slimeball.😡😡 DD was exceptional in the airport especially when she realizes that Dev's name was not in the flight for Canada. And we see the whole of her interaction with Dev shown in reverse. I think it was something akin to thinking if only Geet could turn the clock back to when she was just a innocent college girl living her life with its plus and minus before she ever met Dev and her whole life was turned upside down. 😭😭Maybe her subconscious somewhere suspects what the conscious mind is refusing to accept .The prayer plate falling when she knows about Dev's truth was a little melodramatic but this being the main issue and basis of the whole series, at least when it began, and it is a soap so I can understand the need for the same.😳

There is one thing I failed to mention yesterday. I wanted to appreciate the attention given to the authenticity of the sets be it the airport or the police station. 👏There were even a few foreigners even if they kept showing the same guys. Later on when they showed the hospital which morphed into the airport for their honeymoon the sets seemed really cheap. Of course Khurana house itself became claustrophobic later.😭

Dev and NT are just master planners. They have thought of everything. And that gloating smile on their faces. Sia and Z how about using Dexters special toolbox on Dev when he is alive. I would love to hear his screams. 😈

They really brought out Dev as a good villain. I see no reason why they should have changed their minds later. Some villians have to work hard to earn this much hatred. For Dev you could fill a big store house with hatred and there would still be a lot left. And the way he calmly enquires about everything and the way NT answers like a subservient wife I don't know how they could even dream of putting blame on NT.😡 Much later on NT did get an upper hand also becos she was a wife he had cheated on and that was something she could not come to terms with even though she suspected it all along.

And how NT explaind their "research" on how they chose Geet's family. They had really measured Geet's family well-how they blame the girl for everything and they are more worried about the honour than their daughter's well being. Geet's dad was definitely a wild card in their equation but unfortunately they were too smart.

It was really heartbreaking to see Geet in jail along with women of questionable reputation.😭 But the police guy was in character. We can't blame them. They are world weary. At least the woman inspector had a little pity in her to let Geet make the call. She has seen many such cases. Poor Geet still thinks Dev must be searching for her and does not believe the inspector.😭 I am in a way glad that Geet's dad picked up her call. And how he comes towards her in the jail. Daarji stops him and then questions her on why she missed the plane proving NT's assessment right – blame the women for everything wrong.

@ Z you can call me Paro.😊 .I could see my thoughts reflected in your analysis. I have not seen the episodes that come after this yet and your telling me about the torture she is put through disheartens me. 😭But we know that Maan even though unwillingly gives her the courage and support she needs. So lets take heart from this fact and drudge our way through the next few episodes.
