Part 26
That letter fell off Maan's hand, he felt soo helpless at that moment
Pinky couldn't see him like that, Maan come fast, Romeo, you get the car..we are going to Bangalore..
Scene changes
The car was parked on the side of the road and Maan and Kidnapper were seated opposite to each other on the rock at some city outskirts with minimum vegetation.
Kidnapper: There are no usual twists in your life yaar..
Maan: Try to understand me...I have to stop that marriage...If you want I will come back..do whatever you want with me
Kidnapper laughed at him..he got up and took a few steps towards Maan
Maan: This is life and death problem for me
Kidnapper: Hey...why are you so tensed?
She was roaming with u recently...
Yesterday she got engaged with Dev
Now she is marrying someone else
In her life..I feel husband is new but not men..
Maan burst with anger...he furiously got up and charged the kidnapper...the single blow he gave on the jaw was enough to make the kidnapper blackout...he almost fell on the ground
Maan: one more word against geet and
Kidnapper cut him off, Is she that close to u??
The kicks and punches continued...blood was dripping from both their faces...Kidnapper took the gun out...but during the fight, Maan managed to keep it away from his face and body...and finally, in that struggle, that gun fell off at a distance...
Kidnapper tried to take it first but Maan engaged him in the fight...but when a sudden blow hit Kidnapper's stomach, he was thrown near that weapon...he was about to pick it up when Maan tapped his back and snatched it...
Kidnapper: I made a mistake..I should have killed you then and there..
Maan: Your bad luck...shall I kill u now?
Kidnapper: He told me that you are very cunning...that Khanna told me
Maan: Khanna?...who is this Khanna?
Kidnapper: Your lover Geet's father...he ordered me to kidnap you
Maan was confused, Geet ke papa ka naam Mohinder Handa hai
[Geet's dad's name is Mohinder Handa ]
Kidnapper: Mohinder HANDA??
Maan: Yes
Kidnapper: Is it not Khanna?
Maan: NOO
Kidnapper: Isn't ur lover, Mahendra Khanna's daughter?
Maan: NOO...kab se toh bol raha hoon
[I am trying to tell that since long ago]
Kidnapper: Isn't it you who planned to elope with Khanna's daughter?
Maan: Don't irritate me now asking that same bloody question...I will fire..I dont even know how to shoot...kahi pe bhi maar dunga tumhe...
[I will shoot anywhere]
Kidnapper's condition worsened, he desperately says, In my 15yrs career never once it happened like this...he was n the verge of breaking down..he wanted his answers, if you are not him then who is that man? and by the way who the hell are you?
Maan: I AM MAAN
Kidnapper: Maan...he turned away from him and walked a while, he seemed to relieve his stress, but came back to him to tap Maan's shoulder, he forwarded his hand asking for a handshake, by the way, I am John...with a big smile on his face.
They both shook hands and turned away from each other.
Maan was unable to understand what was happening, oye...isn't it u who dragged me into this confusion??
how am I connected to all this??
and why the hell did u drag me into this mess??
Kidnapper: Relax relax, now you tell me why the hell were you there in that car?
AP03K 999? huh?
Maan: Geet ki shaadi rokna tha...dobara math puchna..
[I wanted to stop Geet's wedding, don't ask again]
both their minds were over-working...
Kidnapper: Hey Maan...tell me one thing finally..where did I go wrong?? Kidnapper had tears in his eyes while asking this
Scene changes[FLASHBACK]
On the way to Bangalore, the car broke down...Pinky and Romeo were examining the car whereas Maan was a bit lost in his thoughts...
Pinky: I think we can't do it Romeo
Maan: How long will it take?
Pinky: I am trying to fix it yaar
Just then a car was about to pass them, Maan went ahead to stop the car... stop...please stop and that vehicle stopped, Maan asked them, I need to go to Bangalore
Person in the car: Ok..get in...we are also going to bangalore
Maan turned to talk to his friends, yaar i am leaving...you come with the car
Pinky: Ya ya go soon
As the car zoomed away the number plate of the car was shown to be AP03K 999
That person in the car took a small break in the dabha nearby the highway when Kidnapper saw Maan beside the car...the Kidnapper mistook the person and kidnapped Maan...
[this is the starting scene...check prologue]
Scene changes
Maan was sitting on the bonnet of the sumo with gun tapping his head.
The kidnapper was roaming aimlessly, damn it!!
Khanna will kill me if he comes to know this
Maan: If Geet marries...then I myself will kill u
Suddenly the kidnapper's mobile started ringing...as soon as he saw who was calling his face lost all its color...he kept the mobile beside Maan on the bonnet and took a few steps back, Khanna is calling
Maan picked it up and the Kidnapper was shocked when he did that...he was rooted to the spot.
Maan: oye
Khanna...on the line...
Maan: Shut up man..just shut ur mouth
Khanna...on the line...
Maan: Who am I? Who the hell are you?
Khanna...on the line...
Maan: I don't care whoever u may be
Khanna...on the line...
Maan: We don't have any connection...but if the matter gets worse in my case then I will surely come to slit ur neck
Khanna...on the line...
Maan: By the way, I killed John...with this he ended the call
Kidnapper coughed hard at the last lines of Maan, why did u tell him like that?
Maan: Nobody can kill a dead man right? that's why I told him like that
Kidnapper was elated...he kissed maan's hand n took his mobile, arey haan...thank you...thank you soo much saale saab [Brother-in-law]
Maan: Saale saab?? who is saala to u? he jumped from the car to hold kidnapper's neck
Kidnapper: Arey...arey...you saved your sister's husband's life saale saab...
Maan was irritated to the core, where are we now?
Whats going on?
I am terribly confused Jijaji...
[beother-in-law]
Kidnapper: Hey...where is the marriage?
Maan: Bangalore

THAT'S HOW IT STARTED - Part 25
Part 25
There was knock on the door early in the morning, Maan opened the door to see Sam...
She had all the signs of being married, he had an awkward smile seeing that
He just gave her space to enter the house, they both sat in adjacent sofas with Savitri's picture in the middle...
Sam: I came to Hyderabad just yesterday
came to know about aunty
Maan: hmmm
how are you?
Sam - I am fine
you?
He showed his thumps up indicating he too is good with a small smile on his face, which also showed all the grief he was going through
There was an uneasy silence for a long time between them
Sam: Shall I take a leave?
They both stood up to leave, after taking a few steps Sam turned to say something, Maan...I wanted to talk to u for sometime now...
I had to go to chennai after my marriage
I thought of calling u
But I dont know...somehow
Maan: Forget about all that
Sam: My parents never approved you
but still...I tried, they got a reason that day to reject you
Maan immediately cut that, but you are happy now, right?
Sam: That's not...
Again he interrupted, you are u r happy na?
She nodded her head
Maan: That's what matters
Sam: hmmm
we met as friends...
I want our friendship to last forever
Maan: It will
Sam: Friends?
Sam wanted a handshake...Maan was happy to do that...they shook hands, coffee?
Sam immediately took away her hand... you will make coffee?
no thanks...
Maan smiled
Sam: If u allow me to prepare...I'll have it
Maan: Hmmm..okay
theres kitchen..everything is..
Sam: I will manage..dont bother..freshen up n come..I'll make superb coffee for u
She started preparing coffee when the door bell rang..she opened it to see an unfamiliar face
It was Geet
She saw Sam and recognized her instantly
Sam: Yes
It was a big blow to her..seeing Sam with all the signs of marriage...she went in a state of shock for a while
Geet: Sorry..wrong address I think
Sam: Its ok
She very hurriedly left the house...in the process she left her bracelet stuck to a plant..she was not in a state to think about it...she felt like a fool coming there
On the whole way back to her hotel she cried...a lott...
She immediately took a bus back to Bangalore
On the way back she saw a missed call from Pinky...she e-mailed her...
As soon as she entered her house...
Geet's mom [Rano]: Dekhiye geet is back
She got up to bring Geet to sit with them
A husband and a wife who came to meet were talking about her
Wife: the girl looks better in person than in photo..isnt it?
Geet's mom [Rano]: Ravi uncle and Anu aunty..sit beta
Geet: Namaste
Husband: This is my son's photo beta...if u say yes..we'll take u right away...
Wife: Your parents will come to your marriage as guests..see the photo once
Geet: No need Auntyji..if my parents like him..its ok with me
i'll take a leave now..
Mohinder sensed something wrong has happened
he observed that Geet wasnt reacting as she used to...he immediately went to see Geet
She was unpacking her luggage...her back was facing him
Mohinder: Geet..you seem to be very happy...whats the matter dear?
Tears started rolling and she turned to face her dad
Mohinder: Did u meet Maan?
Geet: Hmmm
Mohinder: What happened?
Geet: Maan's married
Mohinder was shocked a bit n felt sorry for his daughter
All he could do was hug her tight
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scene changes
Chocolate started barking all of a sudden
Maan: Chocolate... he came out to see what was the matter what are u doing here?
He saw chocolate had something in his mouth, Chocolate...you are eating all stupid stuff these days... what is it?? he tried to snatch it from it but the dog wasnt leaving it
After much trying he took that thing out of its mouth, it was geet's bracelet...he indeed recognised it in a second...he thought how come this bracelet is here?
He immediately went to call Pinky, Pinky..Where is Geet?
Pinky: I am going to kick both of u like hell...idiots..
she came to Hyderabad and went away without meeting me
and she did come to your home 2 days back...
she mailed me
where were you duffer??
Maan: Where is she now?
Pinky: Where else?
she would have gone back to Bangalore
Maan: What??
Now he remembered asking Sam who was on the door while he came to have his coffee
Maan - Who was on the door?
Sam - Don't know...some wrong address
Instantly he cursed himself, Pinky...where r u now?
Pinky: Home, why?
He rushed to meet her
On the way, he tried calling geet's landline, but none picked up. He was getting frustrated to the core
He drove at a very high speed to reach Pinky. Some people wanted a lift.
These were the same people who were kicked nicely by Geet. He took a reverse gear, stopped the car beside them and came out, they all surrounded the car pleading him to give a lift.
One of them admired the car's inner look and took the driver's seat to look at it.
Maan was in a very very bad mood
Guy 1: Brother we had a flat tyre...we are trying to change it but it's not happening
Maan: Give me that rod
Guy 2: We tried already
Guy 1: Do you have the experience of changing tyres bro??
Maan took the rod and hit both of them terribly, why are you showing your back and running away?
where is the other one?
One of them opened the car's door in pain
Maan: why did you sit in the car??
huh??
He started hitting all of them without giving any gap
as soon as they got a slight chance...they tried tried running away and maan was chasing them
Guy 4: Take left
They all took a left turn to see a dead end
Guy 2: You bloody idiot...he was angry on him
Meanwhile, Maan reached them and they all were terrified, he was moving forward to beat them up like hell
Guy 3: Why are you hitting us?
Maan: What did you comment about geet?
Guy 1: Kaun?
Maan: How many girls did you tease?
Guy 4: Ye uss pagal ladki ka dost hai shayad
[He is the friend of that mad girl, I think]
Guy 2: Really!! she already gave us a good trashing that day...
then why are you again beating us?
Maan: That was her account
this is my settlement... he again went up to beat them but couldn't, he threw away that rod
Everyone was confused
Maan: Sorry guys...I did it in frustration as he proceeded to go, they all stopped him. They sat at a place to talk to him
Guy 2: Why are you frustrated?
Maan: There was a small misunderstanding...
and she went off to Bangalore
Guy 4: Cant you call and explain??
Maan: I did try
Guy 3: Then?
Maan: She didn't pick up
Guy 3: Ohh
Guy 1: pata nahi pagalpan ke daure mein abhi kis ko maar rahi hogi??
[I don't know whom she is hitting now, she is really mad]
Maan: Oye...she is not like that
Guy 1: Thik hai thik hai...you got a friend in Bangalore?? cant you call him up??
Maan: Call him??
Guy 2: Tell him to go to her home...simple
Maan suddenly remembered that Yash was in Bangalore
Maan: Thanks boss... he immediately called Yash
Yash was opening his car's door when his phone rang...
Yash: Hey Maan...You missing me??
Maan: Where are you now?
Yash: If I tell...you might get depressed
I m going to Bangkok in a month from here
office work
Maan: Just shut up and go to Geet's house immediately
Yash: thik hai
thik hai
wait a while
After half n hour or so...Yash was infront of Geet's house
Maan always puts me in trouble
I dont even know if this is her house
He checked he house number and went inside but it was locked, he heard someone working in the garden, hello..come here, please
As soon as he was visible to Yash, he asked, nobody home??
Gardener: No sir
Yash: Where have they gone?
Gardener: To attend a marriage
Yash: Kiski?
Gardener: Geet baby ki
Yash: Geet ki?? Really??
Gardener: Yes sir
Yash: Oh no.. Geet is getting married
He immediately called Maan and Maan was eagerly waiting for his call
Maan: Marriage??
He was shocked
Meanwhile waiting for Maan, Pinky logged in to see if there were any mails, she noticed that Geet sent her 2 emails. She forgot to check one, as she read it she was stunned, she took a print out of it to show it to Maan
She called him and cursed him for the delay in meeting her and yelled to come to a common point so that they could meet him as soon as possible, he sounded very depressed but she had to do it...
On the way she even picked up Romeo
After a while
Maan: Pinky I reached
where r u?
She was a bit away from him, so she shouted, Hey Maan!! we are here
They met and Pinky showed the paper, Geet's email
Maan was still for a moment and started reading
Hi Pinky,
After Aunty's death, Maan was alone
I came here to be with him, but after seeing Sam there...
I realised I am alone..not him
Meeting him and then parting
And then meeting again and parting again
Ab aur nahi hota...
Don't know where this journey will lead to..
I'll never come to Hyderabad again
Though I missed Maan in my life...
I don't know..still I want only him...
but I hope...he'll be happy with Sam
Geet
Maan was totally shattered
