PART 1 - 

A lady is singing bhajan for Lord Krishna while doing aarti.

 Text

Everyone have joined their hands and praying. The lady completes her aarti and faces them, and she is Gopi. Later, she gives them the prasad.

Rohan - Mumma, I want to have two, as it's too tasty.

Jaggi - Even, I want two.

Gopi - Jaggi ji, you will only get one. You have high sugar.

Jaggi - Hmm!

They laughs. Jaggi after sometime leaves for his work in the diamond factory.

*****

Purvi is reading a book, when her best friend's Priya and Sudha came to meet her. They hugs each other. Just then, Gopi too came there, and greets her.

Priya & Sudha - Hello Aunty!

Gopi - Hello beta, how are you?

Priya & Sudha - We are good aunty.

Gopi - You two talk, I will send snacks.

Purvi - Oh, thank you Mom!

Gopi smiles and walks away from there.

They talks on trivial things, until Sudha nudges Priya to bring on the thing which they came for.

Priya - You were asking, why Riya is not coming to college from 2 weeks. I got to know why..

Purvi - Why so?

Priya - She got married two week's back.

Sudha - And.. 

Purvi - Oh, she didn't invite us not told us anything. And what Sudha? 

Priya - Hmm! But we also got to know, something more shocking. I can't believe it still happens.

Sudha - Yes, it's very shocking but it's true. 

Purvi - What? 

Priya - Her groom bought her for 4 lakhs, and her parents only did her bidding.

Purvi - Oh my God! That's so horrible. Today also it happens! Her parents should be send behind the bars, let's call the cops. This is so bad, poor girl her life has been ruined completely. And what is her groom's age?

Priya - Yes, you are right! He is 10 year's elder than her.

Purvi - Oh my God!

She dials the number to call the cops, but Gopi takes her cell away.

Gopi - She has got married, and she is happy in her life. And you three, better concentrate on your final year exams, rather than talking about this nonsense.

Priya - But aunty, how can you..

Sudha - Aunty, we should voice it out.. 

Purvi - Yes, Mom this is so horrible and you are supporting it..

Gopi - This is not something new. It happens, and we have that ritual too. You better not fuss about it!

They doesn't say anything to her, as they are shocked, seeing Gopi so calmly supporting it. At that moment, Naina came there.

Naina - Hello di!

Priya & Sudha - Hey!

Gopi smiles.

Sudha - Anyways, we also came to tell you about the fair tomorrow. We are just so excited!

Purvi - Oh wow, that's really exciting.

'Oh, wow I am coming too di,' Kavya said coming there.

Naina - Cool, me too coming.

'We too,' Rohan and Preeti said together.

Gopi - Okay, okay, you all go but take care of the time.

Priya - Oh, wow thank you aunty!

Sudha - Thank you so much aunty! 

Gopi - It's okay, beta!

*****

Gopi meets a Priest in a temple, who shows her some boy's pictures for Purvi, but she doesn't like anyone, who is suitable for her daughter.

Priest - Don't worry, in one or two day's I will have more prospective groom's pictures, according to the choice of your daughter.

Gopi smiles at him and thanks him.
