Part 8
The Oberois organize the puja to keep the house protected from negative vibes and for family prosperity. After the end of the puja, Khanna gets a telegram, stating that his father is ill. Khanna is facing financial problems.
Khanna approaches Anika. He said, "I need to go to the village as my dad is sick. I need money."
Anika: We have always treated you as our family member. If you need any help, you can call us anytime.
Khanna decides to inform Shivaay about the same. Roop bua had overheard Anika & Khanna's conversation.
Roop: These are the tactics of poor & middle-class people to extract money from us. Khanna is lying.
Anika: He has got a telegram from his house. How can he lie?
Roop: These days, one can buy a sample telegram and manipulate it...
Khanna enters with Shivaay.
Roop: It was my duty to tell you. The rest of the things depends on you.
Khanna enters with Shivaay and overhears Roop's words.
Khanna: Sir, please believe me. If you want you can call at my place to find out the truth.
Shivaay: You have been working with us for more than seven years. I trust you.
He gives Khanna an envelope with Rs. 20,000/-
Shivaay: If you need any other help, feel free to reach us.
Khanna leaves for his hometown.
A week later, the family conducts a naming ceremony for Shivaay and Anika's child.
After the naming ceremony, Gauri names the child as Shivansh.
The next day, Rudra cracks the deal of $10 million. He comes home with a new car.
The Oberois are elated.
Soumya comes to OM.
She said, "Congratulations, Rudra."
Rudra: I have a surprise for you.
He blindfolds Soumya and takes her to Anika.
He then took out the scarf tied onto her eyes and said, "Bhabhi, I want to get married."
Anika: That's excellent news. I am glad that you have decided to take responsibility. By the way, I want to know whether you want us to find a girl for you, or have you seen the girl for yourself?
Rudra: It is a love marriage, which you guys need to arrange.
Anika: Bring her here.
Rudra: The girl is right near you.
Anika sees Soumya and said, "You have made the right choice. After your marriage, all three sisters will stay together. I thank the Oberoi brothers for bringing Trivedi sisters into the same house."
Rudra: Thanks, bhabhi. Love you, bhabhi.
Anika: I will speak to Shivaay and fix up the mahurat.
Anika gives the diamond necklace to Soumya. The song is
Lo Chali Main Apne Devar Ki Baaraat Le Ke
Lo Chali Main
Na Band Baaja, Na Hi Baaraati, Khushiyon Ki Saugaat Le Ke
Lo Chali Main
Devar Dulha Bana, Sar Pe Sehra Saja
Bhabhi Badhkar Aaj Balaiyan Leti Hai
Prem Ki Kaliyan Khile, Pal Pal Khushiyan Mile
Sachche Man Se Aaj Duayen Deti Hai
Ghode Pe Chadh Ke, Chala Hai Baanka
Apni Dulhan Se Milne
Lo Chali Main
Waha Waha Ramji, Jodi Kya Banaai
Devar Devraniji, Badhai Ho Badhai
Sab Rasmon Se Badi Hai Jag Mein
Dil Se Dil Ki Sagai
Aai Hai Shubh Ghadi, Aaj Bani Maein Badi
Kal Tak Ghar Ki Bahu Thi Ab Hoon Jethani
Hukum Chalaungi Maein, Aankh Dikhaungi Maein
Sehmi Khadi Rahegi Meri Devrani
Hazaar Sapne, Palkon Mein Apne
Deewani Maein Saath Le Ke
Lo Chali Main
Shivaay comes home.
He sees that Anika is happy.
Shivaay: What so special. You seem to be very happy today.
Anika: Yes, I am pleased. You are right. Something extraordinary has happened.
Shivaay: Is it?
Anika: Yes, Guess what?
Shivaay: Is it about Rudra's progress?
Anika: Yes, Rudra cracked a deal of $10 million. He has not decided to tie a knot.
Shivaay: That's indeed special.
Anika: Yes, and the most extraordinary thing is we all three sisters will be in the same house after Rudy's wedding. Rudra decided to marry Soumya.
Shivaay: You have given me a piece of happy news.
Shivaay meets Rudra.
He said, "You have made the right choice. I'm proud of you. Call Soumya and the Trivedis here."
Rudra happily goes to Trivedi House.
He met Harshwardhan Trivedi and said, "Soumya and I love each other. I ask for her hand in marriage."
Harshwardhan: That's indeed good news. Two of my daughters are already in your house. What could be happier for me to give my daughter to you?
Rudra: Shivaay bro called you for fixing up the mahurat.
Harshwardhan: When?
Rudra: Today evening.
Harshwardhan: I need some time to make preparations.
Rudra: Don't worry. We will take care of everything.
Harshwardhan and Soumya come with Rudra to OM.
The Oberoi fixes up the engagement date within 3 days and marriage within a month.
Three days later
A lot of guests come to OM.
Rudra & Soumya gets engaged.
Suddenly Gauri faints.
Omkara and the other Oberois get apprehensive.
Omkara calls the doctor, who comes & checks the pulse.
Ten minutes later
The doctor said, "Congratulations, Mr. Oberoi. Gauri is three months pregnant. You are gonna become a father."
The Oberois get elated.
The doctor said, "One concern is that Gauri's blood pressure is low. So you need to take care of her."
He prescribes the tablets for Gauri & leaves.
Everyone gets worried about Gauri.
Suddenly Rudra's phone rings.
He picks up the call.
The client said, "You need to come to the USA for 6 months so we can see how you work."
Rudra: I will let you know.
Rudra is troubled.
Soumya: What's the matter, Rudy?
Rudra: The client has called me to work for 6 months in the USA & I need to come within a week. I think I should decline it as we will marry next month.
Soumya: I think you should take it up. We will marry after 6 months. I will spend some time with Gauri.
Rudra meets Shivaay.
Rudra: The client has asked me to come to the USA for 6 months of project training.
Shivaay: That's good news. When do you need to go?
Rudra: They want me within a week. But what about my marriage?
Shivaay: Can you negotiate with the client?
Rudra: Fine, I will speak to the client.
Rudra gets a call from the US.
Rudra: The project is interesting but my marriage has been fixed for the next month. It is possible to adjourn?
The client said, "It is not possible for us to postpone. But we can definitely approve your leave in any emergency case."
A week later, Rudra packs his bag and goes to the USA.
