THAT'S HOW IT STARTED - Part 26













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
