They are happy ……at the same time equally sad……also nervous…….a myriad of emotions going through them……….

 

 

Mansvi…….(wearing a dark magenta lehanga……) wearing matching jewellery……comes  to bhumi's room……..

Mv: nahi shefali aisa nahi kehte

 

 

Sf: di I was just jokin

 

 

Mv: nahi shefali aaj nahi

 

 

Sf: theek hai sorry(smiles)

 

 

Bhumi is helped by shefali in getting ready………….

 

 

Just then the baarat comes…….

 

 

Mv: shefali……bhumi……baarat

 

 

Sf: di baarat aagayi

 

 

Bhumi too joins excitedly………

 

 

They look at each other and hug happily……..

 

 

 

The guys come in……..The khandelwals welcome them…….

 

 

The wedding rituals start……..the pandit calls for the dulhans………

 

 

The guys come andd sit down first……..they wait anxiously for ……their dulhans……………

 

 

The brides are called upon by the pandit……..

 

 

 

The dulahans come out………and all the rituals for the marriag are performed……

 

 

The guys meanwhile keep looking at the respective brides…..

 

 

Suraj is unable to take his eyes off mansvi…….

 

 

Both are sitting and persorming the rituals of marriage……….Slowly he comes near and whispers

 

 

Su: mansvi…….bahut achchi lag rahi ho………

 

 

Mansvi just blushes………

 

 

Su: arey I said u r looking beautiful……..

 

 

Mv: (looks at him confused) I heard

 

 

Su: but u didn't reply……..

 

 

Mv: (whispering) what am I supposed to say…….or rather reply

 

 

Su: yahen ki how am I looking

 

 

Mv: huh……..(confused and surprised)

 

 

Su: yeah…………

 

 

Just then the pandit says something……..suraj doesn't like this inteeruption and  makes a face………but he controls his emotions quickly……..so that no one witnessed this………But mansvi did…….she just smiles…….

 

 

Meanwhile in other mandap………..

 

 

Arjun looks at bhumi ……….he feels like complimenting her……but she was sitting a bit far…….and how could he say her something when so many people are gathered surrounding them……….

 

 

Bhumi was too immersed in the marriage rituals that she hardly looked at him……..he did not lik this……

 

 

A: (in his mind) bhavri meri taraf dekho to sahi tabhi to keh sakoonga ke bahut beautiful lag rahi ho………

 

 

Just then he thinks of something……..

 

 

A: (a naughty expression in his eyes) bhavri……….

 

 

Saying he slowly starts scratching with his nails her hand…….

 

 

Bhumi doesn't notice……..

 

 

A: (in his mind) kamal hai……..koi asar hi nahi huwa…..atleast she must have jumped…….

 

Just then another idea strucks him

 

 

A: (naughtily……in  his mind) jumped……..ab to aisa hi kuch karna hoga jisse she will surely jump……..

 

 

He slowly scratches her leg……..(that is her thigh region…..or rather lap…..as she was sitting beside him……he could scratch the side of her thighs)

 

 

He did it a bit intensity……….so even though he did it above her lehanga she could feel it……….

 

 

B: AAAA

 

 

All the people standing were startled………

 

 

B: yahan……….(a bit scared………she lifts that leg(thighs) up……..)

 

 

Sh: kya huwa beta

 

 

B: mama yahan koi insect hai

 

 

A: nahi bhavri…….yahan koi insect nahi hai(sensing the

situation could go out of control)

 

 

B: hai………abhi kise keede ne mujhe kaata

 

 

A: (in his mind) Idiot doesn't she even know the differsnce between scratching and biting…….

 

 

B: mama………mujhe keedon se bahut darr lagta hai…….

 

 

A: bhavri……its okay……

 

 

Sh: nahi beeta yahan kuch nahi hoga

 

 

B: mama…….

 

 

A: bhavri stop it……koi keeda weeda nahi hai

 

 

B: how can u be so sure……..

 

 

A: who isiliye kyunki maine hi…….(stops realizing what he  was about to say)

 

 

B: tumhe he kya(surprised and suspiciously)

 

 

A: er……..

 

 

All the people standing were looking at him

 

 

A: er….er……maine check kiya tha achchi tarah se…….

 

 

Sh: (to bhumi) beta…….kuch nahi hoga

 

 

Bhumi settles down……..

 

 

A: (heaves a sigh of relief) uff……achcha huwa chup huwi……warna humari shaadi aaj hote hote reh jaati…….woh bhi bhavri ke khayali keede ki wajah se……….

 

 

Bhumi sees this although she is not able to hear him as he said all this a  very low tone………

 

 

She gets suspicious

 

 

B: arjun…….

 

 

A: huh…….

 

 

B: sach sach batao……..

 

 

A: what

 

 

B: ye keede ka chaakaar tumhara tha

 

 

A: er…er….nahi to…..

 

 

B: such…….i know u r behind all this……..aaj shaadi ke din bhi tumhe mazak soojh raha hai

 

 

A: bhavri maine kuch nahi kiya

 

 

B: such batao

 

 

A: theek hai…….ab jhagda karna band karo……warna log sochenge kea aye the teen shaadiyon ke liye……par do shaadi aur ek divorce dekh kar jaa rahe hai

 

 

B: that means u admit ke tum the us insect ke peeche

 

 

A: (whispering) nahi……..meri finger thi…….

 

 

B: finger……..

 

 

A: yep!!

 

 

B: main kuch samjhi nahi

 

 

A: abhi samjhata hoon

 

 

Saying he scratches her leg in the same way again……

 

 

B: AA

 

 

SHakuntala rushes again

 

 

Sh: kya huwa beta iss baar bhi insect ne bite kiya

 

 

B: (in her mind) nahi aapke bete ne……….(to shaku) nahi mama….woh mujhe jara lagi isliye

 

 

Sh: beta hum to darr gaye

 

 

A: mama don't worry

 

 

Shaakuntal leaves………

 

 

B: arjun……tum bhi naa……kya jaroorat thi aisa karne ki

 

 

A: jaroorat thi

 

 

B: kya(whispering)

 

 

Now all this conversations were done in whispering so the

people couldn't hear them…………

 

 

A: bhavri……..main kabse tumhe kena chahta hoon par tum ho ke sunna hi nahi chahti

 

 

B: kuch kehna tha………..aisa kya kehna tha ki tumhe ye sab karna pada…….

 

 

A: That you are looking absolutely stunning…….

 

 

B: who sab ………theek…….(suddenly realizing what he said)…….huh……

 

 

She just blushes…….

 

 

A: ab bolo ye jaroori baat thi naa…….

 

 

B: tum bhi naa……..(smiles)

 

 

Meanwhile in yuv's place…….

 

 

Sf: (calls yuv) yuv……(whispers) my make up is all right naa

 

 

Y: sheffali this is te nth number of time you have asked me this stupid question

 

 

Sf: yuv this is not a stupid question…….u see this is my forst and last marriage…….

Sf: theek hai…….theek hai…….

 

 

The kanyadaam ritual is started……….Pratap khandelwal starts doing the rasam………

 

 

All the other rituals for the maarraiage are completed………

 

 

 

Then the bidaai time comes………

 

 

The girls feels very sad…….they all are crying…..

 

 

Pratap khandelwal too is sad……..but at the same time happy

Meanwhile……………..

 

 

The girls come to heritage house………

 

 

The couples are welcomed………….

 

 

Gunwanti who was waiting for the couples ………comes forward…..

 

 

The three couples comes forward……….Gunwants does the aarti of the bahus…….and then puts tilak on their forhead………..

 

 

Then gives them blessings………Gunwanti then keeps the rice kalash on the floor and asks the three brides to hit them and come in ………
