Chapter 46

Next day………

Bhumi mansvi and shefali come down……..

They take the aarti…….

Sh: jeete raho beta

The girls smile

Sh: achcha suno aaj nashte main kya banana hai…….

Mansvi bhumi and shefali look at each other………

Just then arjun comes over there

A: haan bolo bhavri, boliye bhabhi kya banana hai nashthe main…….(smiles)

Mansvi bhumi and shefali look at each other helplessly

A: what happened speak up

Sh: haan beta kya hhuwa………

Shefali was about to say something……..seeing this arjun became excited……but mansvi stops her at the right time……..

Mansvi looks angrily at shefali and indicated bhumi to bring something…….

Bhumi brings a piece of paper and gives to shakuntala

Shakuntala is confused……..she takes the paper piece and opens it………

Arjun too leans forward to see whats written on the paper

Shakuntala reads it

" Mama aaj humara maun vrat hai……mama humne manat mangi thi ki humari shaadi agar man chahe jagah huyi to hum ek din yaani 24 hours ka maun vrat rakhenge…..isliye mama please forgive us…..if we couldn't speak up today"……


Arjun gets a bit tensed……..shakuntala looks up at them and smiles…….

Sh: theek hai beta…….aaj hum tumse kuch nahi poochenge…….(looks at arjun) sun aaj tum bhi galti se inse kuch aisa mat kehna jinse inhe apna vrat todna pade

A: huh

Sh: hmm ye baat apne bhaiyon ko bhi samjha de…….

Shakuntala leaves……….Mansvi bhumi and shefali smile…….

Arjun goes to suraj's room and shares the thing

Su: good way to escape…….but u ……u have to win right

Y: yep bro

Suraj thinks of a plan……….

After sometime shakuntala……..meets yuv!

Y: mama…….ye shefali ne aapko dene ke liye kaha hai

Sh: kya hai

It was a piece of paper…….

Sh: ye bahuwen bhi…….(smiles)

The paper read……..

" mama aaj humara sirf maun vrat nahi hai……..aaj pura din hum kuch nahi khayenge….mama aapko koi aitraaz nahi hoga hum jaante hai"

Sh: lo bhala mujhe kyun aitraaj hone laga………

Yuvraj smiles……….shakuntala goes to the breakfast table…….where bhumi manvi and shefali were preparing the table

Sh: bete……..maun vrat to rakha…..par pura din bina khaye peeye

The girls are confused…….

Just then the guys come out and smile

Su: haan shefali mansvi bhumi…….u love us so much……humare liye kya kya kar rahi ho…..pura din chup rehna…….bhuke rehne…….

A: haan bhaiyya…….woh bhi bhavri

Bhumi narrows her eyes!

Y: shefu a good dieting plan for u! isn't it!

Shefali is angry………so is mansvi and bhumi…….

Mv: (in her mind) oh to yeh chaal hai aapki!!

Su: (in his mind……) mansvi this is what is called trick!! Now deal wid this trick!


After sometime in the breakfast table

Su: shefali……the toast is really nice

Shefali smiles……but indicated to bhumi……

Suraj doesn't understand

Su: kya batao naa

Sh: oho tum jaante ho na aaj bahuwo kaan maun vrat hai phir bhi

Su: oops sorry mama…….


After the breakfast

Suraj thinks of a plan

Su: hey guys! Listen I think we shoule take advantage of their weakness……

A: hmm…..good idea……

Y: jaise shefali has a weakness for jewellery!

A: bhavri for food(smiling)

Su: and mansvi I know to handle her…..u guys handle ur wives!!

They all goo to their wives……

Mansvi was working in the kitchen…….

Suraj looks at her…..comes from behind and holds her……Mansvi is scared

Mv: (she is about to shout but stops herself at the right time…….in her mind) nahi suraj goenka……not so soon u wont win!

Su: manvi looking beautiful……whats the secret!

Mansvvi looks back…..smiles……and slightly pushes him……and starts doing her work!

Su: mansvi mana tum bol nahi sakti…..ishare to kar sakti ho hmm……

Mv: (in her mind) hmm good idea suraj!

MAnsvi takes the aata she was mixing and puts her hands completely in them……

Su: mansvi!(kisses her hairs)

Mansvi turns and smiles……..spreads her hands over his face……..he didn't know but his whole face was being smeared with flour!

Then slowly mansvi proceeds towards him……Moves near him for a kiss…..suraj is really happy! He forgets about the bet and starts moving towards mansvi!

Mansvi grabs the opportunity and unfills the whole aata on his face!

Suraj is stuned!!

Su: mansvi!! Whats all this!

Mansvi just gives a smile!

Shakuntala enters the room and sees suraj condition! Seeing shakuntala mansvi pretends to help suraj with his condition

Suraj is confused……

Sh: suraj ye sab kya hai!

Mv:(in her mind) ab bolo bachchoo

Mansvi indicates to shakuntala…….that she was working and suraj came from behind ……and bymistakedly the flour fell on suraj

Sh: beta main kuch samjhi nahi

Mansvi writes in a paper

Su: who mama actually mama……main to bas yahan…..

Before suraj could complete his sentence……..mansvi gave the paper to shakuntala……

She knew that suraj would put the blame on her……but before that she had to make her position clear to shakuntala!

Shakuntala read the paper!

Sh: (a bit disappointed) suraj tum yahan aaye hi kyun!

Su: wo mama

Sh: bete aaj mansvi ne vrat rakha hai …….please isiliye use aaj disturb naa karo

Mansvi smiles……..

Suraj leaves the room in a fit of rage!


In arjun bhumi room

Arjun slowly comes to her…….

A: bhavri!

Bhumi looks at him!.....She was still angry

A: bhavri gussa chodo! Chalo….see what have I bought for u

B: (turns her face…….in her mind) nahi aaj main nahi patne wali

A: bhavri……..see I have bought ur fav sweets for u!

Saying he brings the rasmalai…..in front of her……

A: (smelling) hmmmmm………kya kushboo hai bhavri……and the taste is(eating) yummy tooooooooo!!

Bhavri feels like eating it!! She loves the sweet a lot!

A: lo naa bhavri!

She turns back and comes ahead to take the sweet

But arjun goes back…..

A: bhavri itni asaani se nahi……u will have to get the sweet to have the sweet….and to get the sweet u will have to get to me

Saying he runs in the room…..

Bhumi runs behind him……..

After sometime…….bhumi starts panting!

Bhumi was tired now and wants to have the food……the sweet

A: lo naa bhavri!!

She was almost upto say something when she stopped saying!

Arjun was disappointed…….

A: but bhavri to get the sweet comeon get me…….

Bhumi looked him in frustration……she couldn't belive that just to win and make her loose he could go to this extent and exploit her weakness…..

She just leaves the room……

A: bhavri swwet   rasmalai!!


Arjun was confused…….bhumi went down and started crying…….

Mansvi came there…..seeing bhumi crying she was tensed

Mv:(in her mind) bhumi ko kya huwa

Mansvi asks bhumi in indications as to what happened……

Bhumi says nothing but just hugs her and cries…..

Mansvi is unable to understand……

She is confused!!

Shefali was standing in the gardens………yuv nears her …………..

Shefali was doing some work…….yuv shaks her hardly…….

Shefali was about to shout on the top of her voice……but somehow….she prevented herself from doing so!

Y: shefu look whats there…….

Shefali asks what was there

Y: shefu…..look there is this international jewellery exhibition going on!

Shefali becomes excited

Y: (in her mind) good shefali make me……I mean us win!

Sf: (in her mind) wow! International jewellery exhibition

Y: so shefali lets go

Shefali asks him in expressions as to where is this exhibition held…..

Yuv pretends to not understand what she was saying!

Y: what shefu what are u saying I cant understand(smiling a bit)

Shefali again tries to explain him in expressions……..but yuv again pretends to not understanding what she was saying!

Shefali by now gets angry………….

She was just about to shout at him………

Mansvi comes at the right time………but mansvi ,for stopping shefali,goes to shout!

But shefali sees mansvi and keeps a hand on her mouth! Seeing this mansvi too is saved from losing the bet!........

Yuv is disappointed………


In the guys room

Su: no guys this is not done……we have not been able to make them speak up!

A: bro we did try!

Y: yep bro

Su: nahi think harder! Try other plans…..

A: okay bro

Y: suraj bhaiyya hume unhe harana hai to unke weakest link ko target karna hoga

Su: ur right!


A: hmm

Su: the weakest link is shefali! She speaks a lot!

Y: hmm bhaiyya

Su: hume use hi harana hoga only then could wwe win!

In the hall…..

Shefali was doing some work………when yuv comes there….

Yuvv had some plan to make shefali loose the bet

Yuv neared shefali with a smile

Y: (in his mind) I know shefu baby u are scared of croackroaches…….and I loooove them…..

Saying he pulls out a artificial croakroach……from his pocket and gets a weird grin on his face!

He nears shefali and slowly puts his hand below and is about to throw the croackroach on shefali!

But shefali moves a bit and yuvraj slips and he hits against something and fell flat on his face

Suraj and arjun who were witnessing all this were disappointed…….shefali was scared……she turned back to find yuv lying flat on his face!

Suraj and arjun hits their forhead

Bhumi who comes there is surprised looking at yuv!

YUv slowly stands up!!

Y: OH!!

Shefali helps him………but bhumi notices the croakroach……and looks at yuv then at arjun and suraj!!

She pulls the croakroach from yuv's hand……yuv is scared

Bhumi shows the croakroach to shefali……shefali who was helping yuv sees the croakroach and notices that it wasn't real!

Shefali understands the trick…….bhumi had already understood it!!

They narrow their eyes to the guys and leave the room…….

Arjun and suraj comes down

A: yuv ek kaam dang se nahi hota

Su: kitna achcha plan tha shefali would have surely speaken up! But u!!

Y: Bro I am sorry!!

Su: now think of someother plan

After sometime in arjun bhumi room

Bhumi was sitting in her room…..she was going thru some stuffs…….

Arjun sees her and catches her slowly from her waist………

Bhumi is startled……..

Arjun starts kissing her shoulders………

A: bhavri looking very beautiful! Some secret!

He was still kissing her…….but she was hardly in a romantic mood……

B : mujhe yahan itni bhuk lagi hai(in her mind)…….

She shrugs him off……..she is about to leave when he stops her……

Turns her back and she comes to him……he pulls her……

Bhumi comes straight in to his arms……..and he brings her even more closer……

She comes near…….she struggles to get free of his arms……but he tightens it more…….

Bhumi is struggling……when she notices that there was a handkerchief in arjun's shirt pocket!!

She goes near the pocket and smells it……..she is confused……..it was a lady perfume

B: (in her mind) wahi! Ye to thi gadbad……wahi main sochu jab se ……ye ladies perfume ki smell kahan se aa rahi thi

She further continues

B:(in her mind) I never use this perfume…….aur ye smell arjun se aa rahi……hai……What !! how…..ye perfume

She removes the handkerchief from his pocket! And smells it

But arjun snatches it……..pulls it from her

A: bhavrii ye to……leave it

Bhumi was a bit stunned with his behaviour……..she seemed confused……he appeared tensed……

He kept the handkerchief in his other pocket

A: jaane do na bhavri tumhe kuch kaam tha naa

Bhumi was still confused…….she couldn't understand why he was behaving like this!!

Arjun went on the other side and kept the handkerchief on the drawer…….

B: (in her mind) kahi ye kisi ladki…….aur ye arjun is tarah kyun behave kar raha hai……ladki hai rumaal arjun ke pocket main……ye sab nahi

Whereas Arjun on the other hand sees bhumi tensed and gets a slight smile on his face

A: (in his mind) wow arjun ur plan is working! Bhavri ye pooche bina nahi reh sakti ke ye rumaal kiska hai…….aur she would loose the bet!!

B: (in her mind) nahi arjun aise nahi kar sakta who kisi aur ke saath…..

A: wow!! Ye perfume bhi na ……patniyon ko pati pe shak karne pe majboor kar deta hai!......well Thanks to dia….usika to perfume udhar le plan bana paaya

B: (in her mind) nahi arjun ye……nahi aisa nahi kar sakta

Arjun behaves still to be tensed……….

B: (in her mind) to kya woh kisi aur se pyaar karta hai……

She goes near him…….asks in expressions…… whose handkerchief was it!

A: nahi bhavri ye kuch nahi

Bhumi was on the verge of crying…….

Just then bhumi recognized the smell

B: (in her mind) ye perfume to……I have smelled it somewhere before!! Where where!!

A: bahvri what happened……..

Bhumi recognized that it was dia's perfume…….she understands his trick….she couldn't earlier recognize it as she was hurt by the thought that he loves someone else and not her!

B: (in her mind) bachoo…..phase…..kahi ye sab arjun is bet ke liye to nahi kar raha……hmm

She smiles…..making him confused…….

A: what bhavri!!

She smells the handkerchief……..and smiles…….

She shows in expression…….that the smell was nice……very nice…….

She just leaves the room …….arjun is confused

A: kahi bahvri ko ye pata chal gaya kiye trick tha…….dia ka perfume tha……uff!!

In suraj's room…….

Mansvi enters the room…..

Suraj starts prtending to talk to someone……

Su: haan ruchi….hmm….ur right….tumhare jaise style to kisi aur ka ho hi nahi sakta…..

Mansvi hears it!!

Su: ruchi I must say u have a very good sense of dressing…..wow ur sarees, skirts everything colour coordination, accessories,makeup every things always perfect…..u never falter in these


Now this was irking mansvi


Suraj was not facing her…….so she thought that suraj doesn't know that she was here……..but he knew it that she was here!!

Su: ruchi! Why don't u help my wife mansvi also in her dressing sense……u know she does have a nice ddressing sense…..but not as good as yours

Mansvi was stunned

Su: ruchi dekho naa the way u wear ur sarees uff!!

Suraj was noticing mansvi and the expressions from a corner of his eyes…..

Suraj smiled…….

Mansvi was not liking the fact that he was praising someother woman so much

Su: ruchi the way u wear ur sarees……I mean the way ur pallu flows…..phir bhi who tumhara thoda sa waist dikhna

Hearing this mansvi's temper rose

Su: but ruchi u know what its not just dressing sense…..i mean u have the style….the right looks…..ab sab ke paas to ye sab nahi hota……u can give some tips to my wife on dressing sense but not on ur style and ur sexiness……

Now mansvi was full of anger……..

Su: u are something a man would want!! Ruchi ur a sexy woman!!

Mansvi was about to snatch the phone and just shout at suraj for talking like to other wwoman……..

She sees the telephone plugged off!!

Mv: (in her mind) to suraj baat kaise kar raha hai…….hmm

She understands his trick…….she smiles….

She had comes there to keep something……some clothes on her wadrobe…….

She goes to the wadrobe silently and keeps the cloth…….

Suraj sees that mansvi is very cool


Su: (in his mind) isn't she angry on me…..she should be …..she should be beating me up by now!!

Mv: ( in her mind) suraj goenka…..becahre nice plan……but not fully nice plan……

She smiles……

He turns other side………

Su: uhh miss ruchi main baad main baat karta hoon……

Mansvi comes to him

Su: uh miss ruchi one of my clients

Mansvi just smiles and leaves……

Su: uh…….ye kya she is so cool about the fact that I was speaking to other woman that too like these………

He is confused……..just then he notices that the telephone wire is unplugged…….

HE understands why didn't mansvi react

Su: hmm seems she understood……why wouldn't she……she isn't that a fool for that…….

The guys again meet up

A: bro now what

Su: everything had been tried on…..

Y: hmm

Su; romancing, annoying, their weakness, pranks, pulling their legs,loving……but still they are sstill silent……..and our brains too are silent

A: ab kya aren bhaiyaa…..seems they are too determined in winning in this bet

Su: nahi they shouldnt win!!

Y: what to do bro I mean the days passing……

A: don't worry bro…..some trick has to be thought upon!

Su: hmm ur right!!

The day starts passing………but the guys aren't able to make their wives speak up!!

They are tensed…….thy couldn't devote their whole time to their plan as they had to rush to office for some meetings……..

By the time they reached home……it was already late in the night…….

The guys freshen up

The girls serve the food…….

A: (in his mind) nice plan…..bhavri ab bolna hi hoga tumhe…….

A: bhavri……..sit have the food……the food is really tasty!

Sh: arjun! Tum jaante ho na…….aaj inhone vrat rakha hai

A: oh sorry I forgot bhavri!! I am sorry!

Sh: ab tum khalo

A: nahi mama main to isiliye keh raha tha take……matlab bhavri likes this a lot……she likes this food……

Bhumi is silent……..

Arjun still tries to provoke her…….

A: nahi bhavri……….. waise bhi bhavri…..ab tak hai vrat tumhara I mean agar itna vrat rakhogi tumhari sehat ka kya hoga(smiles)

Bhumi knew he was taunting her…….

A: nahi bhavri…..tum kamzor ho jaaogi nahi…….

Su: arjun kyun pareshan kar raha hai…..dekh na bhumi is hungry……nahi…….

Mansvi doesn't like this…..

Bhumi had tears in her eyes……..arjun notices this and feels bad……..

Y: oh suraj bhaiyya……inka maun vrat aur ye bhuke rehne ka vrat hai…..so they need relaxation……nahi shefu baby!!

A: oh!! Main to bhavri ke liye who gift laya tha……

Su: kaunsa gift

A: bhaiyaa who hume jo hume apne business colleagues se jo france ke sweets mile the……they were so tasty…….yummy

Su: so why did u bring it home……

A: no bro I knew bhavri had vrat so I ate some of them and othere were distributed among others in the office

Bhumi was stunned…..she couldnt believe that arjun distributed the chocolates when she loved them so much……

Arjun smiles…….

Su: when u didn't bring ……when u don't have those….why did u talk about it…..No just saying because I still have some of them…..

Bhumi is excited……

She is about to say where………but stops herself

A: ( to ghanu kaka) ghanukaka who ek packet rakha hai udhar le aaye

Ghanukaka brings the packet……

There were deliciously yummy chocolates……

Bhumi and shefali's mouth watered…….they too wanted the chocolates…….

Arjun looked at bhumi and then gave the chocolates to family members…….

Everyone had their piece of choclate…….but none asked them as they had vrat……bhumi felt bad…….


They all eat their food……..

The day comes to an end………

In suraj's room……

A: ( to himself) nahi I shouldn't have hurted her so much…..

Y: hey arjun whats up kya huwa…..

A: nothing……

Su: kya baat hai arjun some tension

Arjun wasn't happy with what he did with bhumi…….he was upset……

Su: I know the dinner table incident……

A: hmm…….she was crying…….

Su: mansvi too felt very bad……we shouldn't have stretched it too much……

Y: so now what!!

Su: nothing…….but anyways shall try to win this bet without hurting them anymore much…….

Y: hmm……..

In night……..in the girls room……..

Mv: the guys were so rude…….

Sf: yep…….they did all this to make us speak…..

Bhumi was silent

Mv: bhumi kya huwa……hmm chup kyun ho……what happened…….

B; nahi di kuch nahi……so jaayen……

Mv: theek hai….

Sf: di dont u think those guys would be thinking of some plan to scare us!

B; why scare us

Sf: so that we would speak up

Mv: but anyways we should be bit more cautious…..hmm

They went to sleep

Just then after sometimes…….

There was a knock on the door…..

Bhumi opned it but there was no one……she was sleepy so didn't mind and dozed off

Again after sometime there was a knock……again bhumi opened it……there was none…..

MAnsvi too got up

Mv: (thru expressions)kaun hai bhumi

B: pata nahi di someone is knocking the door……(thru expressions)

Again the door knocked……this time shefali opened…..no one was there

Again mansvi got up when the door was knocked again……the door kept knocking……

Mansvi understood……..

She told shefali and bhumi to remain quiet and not to open the door……

It was the guys who wanted the girls to get frustrated and blurt out something……

But instead when the girls didn't open the door ………the guys themselves got frustrated………

The girls didn't open the door………so the guys kept knocking………

Shakuntala heard these voices and came up to them…….

When she found the guys knocking the door of the girls unneccesaarily……

She was annoyed…..

Sh: YE KYA HO RAHA HAI HMM

The girls inside smiles

Su: who mama hum who

A: nothing just fun

Sh: fuun…….knocking doors……

Y: no yep

Sh: hmm tumhari patniyan tumhare liye kitna kuch karti hai aur tum…..GO and SLEEP……..

The guys just sleep ………they dare not go against her…….

Sh: ye bachche bhi baap ki tarah hote jaa rahe hai………
