KHANNA HOUSE

1-HOUR EPISODE.

BREAKFAST TABLE

NAINA- dekha Karthik hume aage koi plan karne ki zaroorat hi nahi padi. khud ba khud sab theek ho gaya. hairani to mujhe is baat ki hai ki us ladki ko hameshaa itne amir ladke hi kaise mil jaate hai. u know she's not at all of our class.

KARTHIK- Vo sab to theek hai mom lekin aapko nahi lagraha something is fishy....sachaii janne ke baad bhi Angad ne Kripa ko dobaara es ghar main laane ki koshish nahi ki

NAINA- Chodo na Karthik. Hume usse kya. Prithvi aur kripa shaadi kar rahe hain na to phir problem kya hai. Ab vo waqt zyada door nahi jab Angad or Mishti ki shaadi ho jaayegi aur Angad ka career hameshaa ke liye secure ho jaayega.

    DADI ENTERS

KARTHIK- Good morning dadi

DADI- Good morning beta. Angad kahan hai??

NAINA(IRRITATED)- Aur kahan hoga. Pure din apne room me hi to rehta hai.

DADI (disgusted look to Naina)- Fine i'll go and meet him.

   DADI ENTERS ANGAD'S ROOM

ANGAD- Arre dadi.....aap yaha. I'm so glad that u came. Vaise bhi mai bohot akela mehsoos kar raha tha.

DADI- Mai samajh sakti hoon beta lekin tumne aaj ka newspaper pada.

ANGAD-  nahi......kyun????

DADI- Vo beta......vo......Prithvi........aur kripa.......vo dono shaadi kar rahe hai.

    A storm hits Angad as he hears this. He had lost his life's only love.

ANGAD- Kitni ajeeb baat hai na Dadi.......zindagi main hazaron ladkiyan aaye, sabko MAINE thukradiya.....aur vo ek ladki jisse maine sachee dil se pyar kiya usne mujhe thukradiya.

DADI- Par Angad tum yehi to chahte the.

ANGAD TILL NOW WAS IN A DIFFERENT WORLD WHERE ONLY HE AND KRIPA WERE THERE AND KRIPA WAS LEAVING HIM BUT SUDDENLY HE COMES BACK TO REALITY

ANGAD- haan dadi......main bohot khush hoon(painfully). Ab Kripa hameshaa khush rahegi.

DADI- bhul jao Angad. Mai jaanti hoon ki har mushkil ki tarah tum is mushkil ka bhi saamna kar loge. i know it. u're my strong bachaa na.

ANGAD KEEPS HIS HEAD ON DADI'S SHOULDERS AND BREAKS DOWN. HE CANT BEAR IT ANYMORE.

DADI- Ro lo jitna rona hai ro lo tumhara dil halka ho jaayega. ye batao tum shaadi ke liye to aayoge na.

ANGAD- Kaise dadi....main kaise aayun, main Kripa ko mere alava kisi aur ka hote hua nahi dekh sakta. Maine hamesha use mera hi mana hain aur mere dil maain vo abhi bhi SIRF MERI HAI. Main nahi sehen kar paunga. Aur vaise bhi vo bhi nahi chahti hogee ki main vahan par rahoon. i know she hates me now.

DADI- Tum aisa kaise keh sakte ho Angad. Tumhe aana hi padega. Kripa ke khatir.....agar tum nahi aaye to kripa ko lagega ki tum abhi bhi usse pyaar karte ho lekin tum aaye to usse lagga ki tum sirf formality ke liye aae ho. Jitna bhi tumhe dard ho tumhe aana padega...kripa ki khushi ke liye.

ANGAD( After a lot of thought)- Aap sahi keh rahi hai dadi mai zaroor aaunga.

DADI SMILES TO HERSELF AND THINKS- Thank God!!!!!!

       THE D-DAY ARRIVES. IT'S KRIPA-PRITHVI WEDDING DAY OR RATHER SHUD I SAY ANGAD-KRIPA WEDDING DAY.

  PRITHVI IS JUST ENTERING THE ROOM WHEN HE SEES KRIPA CRYING AND HE QUITELY LEAVES THE ROOM THINKING.......

PRITHVI(THINKING)- Is din ke bad tum kabhi nahi ro-o-gee. Kabhi nahi.

MISHTI (ALL DECKED UP AND LOOKING REELLLY PRETTY)- Bhai aap yahan kya kar rahe ho. aapko to abhi tak chala jaana chahiye tha.

PRITHI- Haan haan main jaa hi raha tha......bas Kripa ko dekhne aaya tha.

NAINA- oh no ek aur musibat.

     Then they all see Kripa is BEING BROUGHT BROUGHT DOWN.

Angad sees her.......kripa sees angad......flashbacks. A tear flows down Angad's cheek. Kripa closes her eyes.

Kripa sits on the mandap. Prithvi is'nt there. She looks worried.

Just then a group of ladies come near Angad and and start speaking in loud voices

LADY1- tumne suna kya.......dulha shadi se hi gaayab ho gaya hai.

Angad looks at them in shock.

LADY2- kaisi ladki hai. koi bhi ladka iske saath tikta nahi hai. pehle angad aur ab prithvi

  Angad looks at the ladies in anger.

LADY3- vo sab to theek hai lekin ab isse shaadi kaun karega. Bechaari zindagi bahr kuwaari rahegi. so sad.
