Sam indicated the team to leave them alone .
Riya handed over the invitation.
Riya : meri engagement ka invitation . Aap ko Ana hai

He took the invitation. They just kept staring at each other for a while . After a while Riya left the office and Arjun went mad after it . He kicked and hit everything possible.

Aman : Riya i know things are not as you expected them to be . And this marriage won’t be having any meaning to either of us. But we will have to get it going in front of everyone. If you need any help or support I will be there .
Riya : Aman my only need is I want to keep working with etf . It’s my dream my passion to be a police officer.
Aman : ok I don’t mind . You can pursue that on your own .
Suddenly my some reporters caught them. And started shooting questions towards them.

Aman: we wanted to get married and isliye this engagement,
Reporters : sir is it related to the new project you are working with dubash industries.
Aman : no it doesn’t have any connections. Now please excuse us.
