herz the 5th part
Nivi(to the maid):Theek hai tum pitaji ko keh do ki hum taiyyar ho kar neeche aa rahein hain.
the maid leaves.
Veer:To ab hum bhi chalte hain.
He turns to leave but dharam stands there staring nivi,she was blushing.
Veer:Dharam chalo...
dharam still doesnt move,then veer comes close to him and shouts in his ears"CHALO DHARAM"
and literally pulls dharam out of the room.nivi smiles.
nivi:Raksha hum abhi tumhe dava laga dete hain,hum to bhool hi gaye the ..
Raksha:Rajkumar dharam ke saamne tum kuch zyaada bhoolne lagi ho.
nivi gives an oh-stop-teasing-me-look to raksha.
Then she calls a maid to help aid raksha and dresses up to meet her father.
Nivi:Pata nahi pitaji ne hume kyun bulayaa hai.hume to darr lag raha hai.
Raksha:Daro mat maharaj tumhe kuch nahi kahenge.ek kaam karo tum gulaabi rang ka lehnga pehnana,maharaj ko ye rang bahut pasand hai,shayad ve thode shant ho jaayein.hmmm main abhi aati hoon.
nivi agrees.
dv in their room
Veer:Dharam tum kahan kho gaye ho.
Dharam:Hum yahin hain.Bas yahi soch rah the ki nivedita ke pitaji ne unko kyuon bulaaya hai.
Veer:Achcha,badi phikr hai rajkumari ji ki!Aur vo 'rajkumari' nivedita hain,sirf nivedita nahin,hai na dharam bhaaiiiyaa!!
Dharam:haan,vo..hum..hum galti se rajkumari kehna bhool..
interrupting dharam,veer said"Aisi galti to aapse nahi hoti thi dharam bhaiyaa...
Dharam:Veer,chup ho jayo,aur taiyaar ho jayo.Aaj hum maa ka diya hua khaas neele rang ka kapda pehnenge.aur tum vo naarangi rang ke kapde pehnana.
Raksha was eaves dropping at the princes.She rushed back to nivi
Raksha:Nivi ruko,tum..tum..neele rang ke kapde pehnana
Nivi:Kyun?
Raksha:Vo rang aaj ke din ke liye bahut shubh hai.
Nivi agrees to her best friend's demand.
After getting dressed up both the girls leave for maharaj MS.
Maharaj MS was standing along with his wife,maharaj AV,and maharani swati in the pooja hall.
MS:Aa gaye beti.Chaliye maata rani ko pranam kar lein.
Nivi follows her father's words.Then the aarti begins.
She looks sideways and was surprisedto find that dharam was wearing the same coloured dress.Dharam was mesmerized to find nivi lookong so gorgeous in the sky blue coloured dress.
Veer:Dharam.. rajkumari ji aur tmhari pasand kitni milti hai.
Dharam(still staring ath nivi):Haan...
MS:Achcha maharaj ab hum chalte hain.Ye diwali hum kabhi nahi bhoolenge.
AV:Aap humare utsav mein shaamil hue,shukriya.
While the elders were talkin to each other,Dharam silently goes to rajkumari nivi (without letting neone know):Nivedita..matlab rajkumari ji,ye morpankh rakhiye,ye khaas kalam hai jisse aap humko..ya kisi aur ko bhi patr likh saktin hain.Isse likhne se dil ki baat padhnewale tak pahunch jaati hai.
Nivi(smile):Shukriya..par aapko dene ke liye humaare paas kuch nahi sivay is vaade ke ki zarrorat padne par humme yaad kijiyega hum aapka saath zaroor denge.
Both give a shy smile.
Veer and raksha were in a trans to find their generally mature best friends actually faliing for each other.
Veer:Main tumhe ye chandan ka lep de rahaa hoon.Ise har raat sone se pehle sir par lagane se dimaag thanda rehta hai aur gusse par kaboo bhi rahta hai.
Raksha:Mujhe tum jaise akdo se kuch nahi chahiye haan..bhagwaan kare tumhe ve thodi akal zaroor de dein nahi to agli baar mujhse mile na to main tumhari...
Veer:Jaan le logi,yahi naa.Agli baar to hum milne se rahe,phir bhi,koshish kar apne gusse par kaboo karna.Gussail.
King MS along with his wife,and nivi,raksha and other men from awadhi take leave from aryanagar.
At night
Dharam was still in deep thoughts about princess nivi.
Veer:Dharam kabhi to hosh mein aao.Humesha rajkumari ke khayalon mein khoye rahte hain.Kya vo mujhse zyaada zaroori hai.
Dharam:Veer phir se aisa kabhi mat kehna.Veer ke bina dharam adhoora hai.Tumhare liye to aisi hazaaron rajkumriyan kurban.
Veer(smile)(teasingly):Par kya karein humari "nivedita bhabhi" jaisi koi aur to hai hi nahi....
Dharam:Veer hum...
Charusena enters their room
Charu:Rajkumar dharam kya aapko us sarkar ka kuch pata chala?
Veer:Sarkar,kaun?
Dharam:Chacha hum to bhool hi gaye the.Veer aswahi jungle ke us gufe mein ek tehkhaana tha....(d narrates the whole tehkhaana story and tells veer about sarkaar)
Veer:Humme us gufa mein wapas jaakar dekhna hoga ki wahan koi suraag mil jaye..us tehkhaane ke andar jaana hoga hume..
Charu:Nahin..ab nahin main tumhe is baar kahin nahi jaane doonga.
Dharam:Charu chacha aap aisa nahi kar sakte hain.
Veer:Dharam charu chacha sahi keh rahe hain.Hum kahin nahi jaayeng.
Charu takes leave..
Dharam:Veer,humaara us gufa mein jaana zaroori hai.
Veer:Hum wahan jaayenge.Maine to aise hi charu chacha se jhoot bola(smiles)
Hum kal karunya mandir jayenge,rastey mein hi hum doosri disha mudkaar aswahi ja sakte hain.aswahi jaakar khoj been kar ke hum phir mandir ki or chale jaayenge.Kaho kaisi hai ye tarkeeb?
Dharam:Par hum jhoot ka saath lekar koi kaam nahin karenge.
Veer:Aryanagra ke liye bhi nahi?Dharam,chalo,maa aur pitaji se poochkar aate hain.
Dharam:Theek hai,aryanagar aur un daakuon ko pakdene ke liye hum itna to kar hi sakte hain.
They enter AV and Swati's room.
AV:Aap dono is waqt?
Veer:Haan..pitaji Dharam aapse kuch kehna chahta hai.
Dharam:Hum!!???
Veer:Haaann...
Dharam:Pitaji hume karunya mandir jaana tha.
Swati:Ye to bahut achchi baat hai,aap dono wahan zaroor jaaiye aur haan wahan ke tallab ka paawan jal hum sabke liye lekar bhi aayigea.
AV:Theek hai,aap dono jaaa sakte hain.
DV leave AV's room happily,thanking their mother silently.
AV:Aap ne unhe itni utsah se kyun bheja?
Swati:Kehte hain ki wahan jakar ,logon ko manchaha jeevan saathi jaldi hi mil jaata hai.(smiles)
In awadhi nivi was standing, tensed, in her room.
Raksha:Tum baar baar akhein band kar yun khol rahi ho.Ye sab kya hai?
Nivi:Kehte hain ki ankhein band karo aur tumhe uskachehra nazar aayega jise tum apna jeeevan saathi banana chahti ho.
Raksha:Aur tumhare saamne sirf rajkumar dharam ka chehra nazar aata hai.kyun?
Nivi:Haan.par tumhe kaise pata chala?
Raksha:Kyunki tum mujhse kuch nahi chupa sakti.
Nivi:Par ye galat hai..Humaari shaadi rajkumar harsh se hone ki baat chal rahi hai.Hum kisi aur ke baare mein soch bhi nahi sakte.
Raksha:Par tum soch to rahi ho.Ab mujhe dekho kya mein us akdoo veer ke baare mein sochti hoon?nahin.kyun?kyunki main usse pyar nahi karti.Samjhi.
Nivi's mom arrives.
"Nivedita beti,kal aap apni daasiyon aur sainikon ke saath karunya mandir jaayengi,aur wahan apne hone wale jeevan saathi ki khushhali ki prarthana karengi.
Nivi:Kya wahan jaana zaroori hai maa.Hum abhi to aryanagar se aaye hain.Thoda aaram chahte hain.
Sumitra:Nahin,kal bahut achcha shagun hai.Aap kal hi jaayengi,Raksha tum bhi nivi beti ke saath jaana.
Raksha:Ji maharani.
The queen leaves.
Raksha:Tum wahan nahin jaana chahti to beemar hone ka naatak..
Nivi:Nahin.Raksha aisi bahut si cheeze hoti hain jise hum chahte hain par wo hume mil jaaye aisa zaroori nahi.Humara ye dharam hai ki hum maa ki baat mane aur kal karunya maandir jaayen
Raksha:Theek hai..theek hai..hum chalenge.Aakhir "ye tumhara dharam hai."Raksha smiles and leaves.
Nivi,holding the morpankh in her hands:Hey bhagwaan kash dharam hume kabhi na mila hota.
