Kanan: tumhare chehre se saaf saaf pata chalta hai ki tum Kashish se kitna pyaar karte ho...........agar itna hi pyaar karte ho to use bata kyun nahi dete.......

Sujal: nahi.......Kanan.........darr lagta hai ki agar Kashish ne mere pyaar ko swikar nahi kiya to........main apne pyaar ke saath saath apne sab se achche dost ko khona nahi chahta........

Kanan: Sujal......tum Kashish se apne dil ki baat chupake uske pyaar aur dosti dono se bewafai kar rahe ho..........main sirf itna hi kahungi ki pyaar kiya hai to uska izahar karna bhi shikho.......

Kanan waha se chali jati hai aur Sujal Sirf payal ko haath me leke Kashish ko dekhta rehta hai jo apni shopping puri karke vapas aa rahi hoti hai.........

Kashish: Hey......Sujal.........kaha kho gaye.........aur yeh kya hai......

Veena: to thik hai main ladki nahi dhundhti .........tu khud hi use le aana...........

Sujal: thik hai.......jaisa aap kahe.........Aap itna bata de ke aap ko kaisi bahu chahiye......

Veena: Muje aisi bahu chahiye jo bilkul hindustani khayalwali ho..........jo bado ka aadar karna janti ho..........jo is ghar ko sambhal sake..........jo apne sanskar aur sanskruti ko janti ho.........aur jo mere pagal bete ko sambhal sake.....

Sujal: itna sab kuch.............tab to aap ka beta puri zindagi kunwara hi rahega..........kyunki aaj kal aisi ladki milna namunkin hai...........

Veena: namunkin kuch bhi nahi.......tu bas use dhundhna shuru kar woh tuje mil jayegi..........ab main chalti hoon mera kaam ho gaya..........aaj se yeh tera kaam hai ki tum muje meri bahu lake donge.........ab raat kafi ho gayi hai tum so jao.........

Veena apne kamre me chali jati hai......

************************************************************ *********

Aaj Raj ki shaadi honewali hai........Sujal aur Aman pehle hi raj ke saath pahunch gaye the lekin Kashish, Kanan aur Mauli abhi tak nahi aaye the.....

Sujal: Aman.....yeh log abhi tak nahi aaye........tum zara phone karke to dekh.....

Aman: maine kitni bar koshish ki lekin koi phone hi nahi utha raha........pata nahi kaha hoge........

Sujal: shaadi shuru hi honewali hai..........

Aman: woh dekho aa gaye........

Sujal mud ke Kashish ko dekhta hai aur use dekhte hi reh jata hai kyunki aaj Kashish ne pehli bar saree pehni thi........Kashish itni achichi lag rahi thi ki sare ke sare log dulhan ko chod ke use dekh rahe the........

Kashish: Sorry woh raste me dair ho gayi aur yeh Mauli bhi na her waqt......

Mauli: main jyada waqt le rahi thi ki tum saree pehen ne me......

Kanan: chup.....her waqt dono shuru ho jati ho.........jagah to dekho.........

Mauli: sorry.........

Kanan: Mauli tum mere saath chalo muje pyaas lagi hai....

Aman: main bhi aap logo ke saath chalta hoon........

Sab log Sujal aur Kashish ko chod ke chale jate hai.......

Sujal: Kashish.......tum aaj bahot hi khubsurat lag rahi ho.......muje nahi pata tha ki tum saree bhi pehen ti ho.....

Raj' Mom: Sujal...........

Sujal: Aaunti.........inse milo yeh hai Kashish......hamari dost.........Aur kashish yeh hai raj ki maa.....

Kashish bends down to take blessings......

Raj's mom: jiti raho beta.........Sujal......tumne woh phool dekhe......

Sujal: woh wahi pe mandap ke pass the.....

Raj's mom: thik hai main dekhti hoon........

Jab Aman, Kanan aur Mauli wapas aate hai.......Shaadi ho rahi hoti hai.........Raj simran ko mangalsutra aur sindoor lagata hai.........

Mauli: yeh mangalsutra aur sindoor........sach a old fashion......

Kanan: yeh fashion nahin riwaz hai.......

Aman: lekin is riwaz ka kya matlab.......

Kashish: Jab koi ladki mangalsuta pehanti hai to woh duniyawalo se garv se kehti hai ki woh uski patni hai........yeh kale moti ki jo mala hoti hai yeh is shaadi ke pavitra bandhan ko atoot aur kisi ki buri nazar se bachata hai.........aur yeh sindoor jiski bazaar me koi kimat nahi hoti lekin kisi aurat ke mang me bhar ne se iski pehchaan, izzat aur gurur is sindoor se jud jata hai.......

Kanan: kafi kuch janti ho.....

Kashish: yeh janne ki baat nahi hai..........yeh mere sanskar aur sanskriti hai jo hume hamare purkho se milti hai........

Mauli: yeh aap log bhi kya boring baatein leke beth gaye.........chalo na sab log khana khane ko chale gaye.......

Sab log khana khane chale jate hai............Sujal, Aman aur Kanan ke saath table pe betha khana kha rahe the jab Mauli aur Kashish apni plates leke aati hai..........

Kashish: Sujal.......muje maloom tha ki tum koi kaam thik se kar hi nahi sakte.........

Sujal; kyun .......maine kya kiya.....

Kashish: Yeh lo tumhara manpasand halwa.......tumne to dekha hi nahi aur khana shuru kar diya.........

Sujal: thanks kashish........

Kanan: Kashish........tumhe Sujal ki her ek pasand na pasand ke bare me janti ho...........her bar use kya chahiye hota hai woh tumhe maloom hota hai..........tumhe her waqt sirf sujal ka hi khayal rehta hai.........aisa kyun kashish.........

Kashish: woh ek dost dusre dost ki pasand na jan paye woh dosti hi kya..........sahi kaha na maine........

Sujal: haa......

Sab log khana khake apne apne ghar aur hostel chale jate hai............
