Hey, how are you all? I hope you all are doing good. Since I've been getting very less reviews on my SS, I've decided to stop writing it. So, as of now, this OS is for some relief. Happy reading. The concept is not at all linked with the original plot. Maya and Arjun were classmates in New York School of Engineering where they met and fell in love. They had crossed all the limits of intimacy and given themselves to each other because they loved each other a lot.
Arjun and Maya had been living together in New York for the last 5 years and now, they had decided to return back to India and get married with the blessings of all elders. They were sitting inside the flight and Maya was a bit nervous.
Maya- Arjun, are you sure tumhari family ko main pasand aaungi? Agar unhe main pasand nahi aayi toh? Agar unhone hume shaadi karne ki permission nahi di toh?
Arjun- Aisa kuch nahi hoga, Maya. Tum bekaar itni tension le rahi ho. Dekh lena, sabko tum bohot pasand aaogi.
Maya- Hope so.
Maya then put her head on Arjun's shoulder and slept. On the other side, in India, Saanjh was looking at the mirror and scanning herself from top to bottom wondering how she looked. She was blushing really bad.
Saanjh (in mind)- Arjun aa raha hain itne saalo baad. Aaj toh accha dikhna hi padega. Pata nahi woh mera purana duffer hain bhi ya badal chuka hain. Par jo bhi ho, main bohot excited hoon.
Ayaan- Oye bas bhi kar abb, aur kitna ghooregi aaine ko? Baar baar aaina dekhne se teri bhootni jaisi shakal acchi nahi ho jaayega. Aur ye sharmana bandh kar. Laal tamaatar lag rahi hain.
Saanjh- Ayaan bas kar! Aur bola na toh joote maarne hain maine tereko. Main koi sharma nahi rahi.
Just then Arjun's mother came and hugged her.
Vandana- Ayaan, meri hone waali bahu ko tangg mat kar. Mere Arjun ki hone wali biwi hain yeh.
Saanjh blushed even more.
Ayaan- Yeh bandariya meri bhabi nahi bann sakti, Maa. Aur kya pata bhai ne already New York mein koi pata rakhi ho.
Saanjh took off her chappal and ran behind Ayaan.
Saanjh- Aaj na tujhe main joote khilaake hi rahungi. Tu rukh beta!
On the other side, Maya and Arjun headed towards Arjun's house holding each other's hand and as soon as they entered, they saw everyone coming towards Arjun. Seeing this, Maya got nervous and left Arjun's hand before anyone could notice. Arjun looked at her confused when his mother came and hugged him.
Vandana- Hayyee mera beta, kitne saalo baad dekh rahi hoon apne bete ko!
Arjun bent down and took her blessings.
Arjun- Kaisi ho, Maa?
Vandana- Tujhe dekh liya na, abb bilkul theek hoon.
Arjun was greeting everyone when his mother saw Maya.
Vandana- Yeh ladki kaun hain, Arjun?
Arjun- Maa, yeh meri...
Arjun was about to tell her the truth but Maya didn't let him.
Maya- Dost! Main dost hoon Arjun ki. India ghoomne ka mann tha toh socha iss baar Arjun ke saath yahi aa jaau. Aap logo ko koi problem toh nahi hain na?
Arjun looked at Maya in a confused state. Maya bent down and took Vandana's blessings.
Vandana- Arrey bilkul nahi beta! Balki hume toh bohot accha laga. Accha, kya naam hain beta tera?
Maya- Maya!
Vandana- Bada pyaara naam hain. Abb jab tak tu yaha hain, ise apna hi ghar samajhna.
Maya- Thank you, Aunty!
Arjun smiled seeing the way Maya was bonding to his mother.
Arjun- Accha, Saanjh kaha hain?
Ayaan- Hogi yahi kahi. Dekh rahi hogi tujhe chup chup ke!
Arjun laughed out loud.
Arjun- Uski yeh aadat gayi nahi? Ruk, abhi dhoondhke aata hoon.
Arjun searched for Saanjh all around the house, and finally, on not finding her anywhere, he went to the terrace. He knew she would be there.
Arjun- Dusky, kaha hain tu? Kahi tu iss water tank ke peeche toh nahi chupi? Ya phir uss staircase ke paas? Ya phir mere peeche?
Saying this, Arjun turned around. Saanjh was standing right behind him. She jumped and hugged him. He hugged her back.
Saanjh- Arjun tujhe nahi pata maine tujhe kitna miss kiya.
Arjun- Maine bhi tujhe bohot miss kiya. Accha chal toh, tujhe kisise milwana hain.
Saanjh- Kisse?
Arjun- Tu chal toh sahi.
Arjun held Saanjh's hand, dragged her to the hall and took her near Maya.
Arjun- Dusky, isse mil, yeh hain Maya!
Maya- Hi Saanjh! Arjun tumhare baare mein bohot baatein karta hain. In fact subah se raat tak bas tumhare hi baare mein baat karta hain.
Saanjh- Arjun, yeh kaun hain?
Arjun- Yeh meri...
Vandana- Arrey Saanjh! Arjun! Tum dono zara yaha aana.
Arjun was about to say the truth to Saanjh but his mother called them.
Saanjh- Chal chal! Aunty bula rahi hain.
Saanjh dragged Arjun leaving Maya alone. She felt quite left out.
Vandana- Arrey Maya beta, tu bhi aa na!
Arjun held Maya's hand and took her with them.
All of them were sitting together.
Vandana- Arjun aur Saanjh, tum dono abb bade ho gaye ho. Abb waqt aa gaya hain ki tum dono apni zindagi ka sabse zaroori faisla lo.
Arjun and Saanjh looked at each other confused.
Arjun- Kaisa faisla?
Vandana- Hum bado ne milkar yeh faisla liye hain ki tum dono ki shaadi kara di jaaye!
Arjun was terrified and so was Maya while Saanjh blushed.
Arjun- Kya? Maa aap kya keh rahi hain? Main Saanjh se kaise shaadi kar sakta hoon?
Saanjh's smile disappeared when she heard this.
Saanjh- Kyu? Kyu nahi kar sakta tu mujhse shaadi? Tujhe main pasand nahi hoon?
Arjun- Nahi aisi baat nahi hain par main...
Saanjh- Tu kya? Kisi aur se pyaar karta hain tu?
Arjun was about to say yes but Maya didn't let him speak.
Maya- Nahi Saanjh, aisa kuch nahi hain. Bas abhi Arjun shaadi ke liye tayyaar nahi hain. Par tum fikar mat karo! Main mana loongi use. Yeh vaada hain mera!
Arjun was angry as hell. He looked at Maya with rage in his eyes and walked upstairs to his room. Saanjh held Maya's hand.
Saanjh- Tum kar paaogi yeh?
Maya smiled and nodded. She then walked to Arjun's room and knocked on the door.
Maya- Arjun, kya main andar aa sakti hoon?
Arjun- Get out, Maya! Get the hell out of my room.
Maya- Arjun, meri baat suno!
Arjun- Kya sunu? Tumne mujhe waha sabko sach bataane kyu nahi diya? Kyu nahi bolne diya sabko ki main tumse pyaar karta hoon?
Maya closed the door.
Maya- Dheere bolo, Arjun! Koi sun lega.
Arjun- Toh sunne do! Aur tum bhi meri ek baat sun lo. Main kisi bhi haal mein Saanjh se shaadi nahi karoonga. Tum kuch bhi kar lo main iss rishtey ke liye haa nahi kahoonga.
Maya- Arjun, tum samajh nahi rahe ho. Tumne shayad Saanjh ki aankhon mein woh nahi dekha jo maine dekha. Woh tumse bohot pyaar karti hain, Arjun. Aur tumhari maa already Saanjh ko apni bahu maan chuki hain. Abb woh jagah Saanjh ke alaawa koi aur ladki le hi nahi sakti, main bhi nahi. Tumhari maa ne tumhare liye itna kuch kiya hain. Kya tum itna bhi nahi kar sakte unke liye?
Arjun- Toh kya karu? Kar lu shaadi Saanjh se? Bann jau uska dulha? Zindagiya barbaad kar lu apni, tumhari aur Saanjh ki bhi? Isse hum teeno ki life barbaad ho jaayegi, Maya! Main Saanjh ko woh pyaar, woh khushi kabhi nahi de paaunga jo koi bhi ladki apne husband se expect karti hain. Maan lo yeh shaadi ho bhi gayi, phir kya? Kya tumhe lagta hain main usse pyaar kar paaunga? Ya phir use khushiyaan de paaunga? Chalo maan liya uski bhi acting kar hi li! Phir jab woh bacche ke baare mein baat karegi toh? Kaha se laakar doonga main use baccha? Main kabhi uske saath intimate relations rakh hi nahi paaunga. Isse humaare saath saath uski bhi toh life barbaad hogi na. Koi khush nahi rahega iss shaadi se. Koi bhi nahi! Dekho Maya, abhi bhi time hain. Hum neeche jaake sab ko sach sach bata dete hain. Tumhe mahaan banna hain toh bano, mujhe koi shauq nahi hain mahaan banne ka!
Maya- Arjun, tumhe yeh shaadi karni hi hogi.
Arjun- Nahi karoonga main yeh shaadi!
Maya- Theek hain!
Maya broke a perfume bottle and put a broken piece of glass near her wrist.
Maya- Abb batao, abb karoge ya nahi tum yeh shaadi?
Arjun- Ma...Maya, tum...tum kya kar rahi ho? Pagal mat bano! Woh...woh glass mujhe do.
Maya- Jawaab do! Haa ya na?
Arjun- Maya, tum pagal ho gayi ho? Woh glass mujhe do.
Maya was about to slit her wrist.
Maya (shouted)- Haa ya na?
Arjun got scared.
Arjun- Haa, haa! Karoonga main yeh shaadi. Tum...Tum please woh glass pheko.
Maya threw the glass, held his hand and put it on her head.
Maya- Meri kasam kha kar kaho tum yeh shaadi karoge!
Arjun- Maya, tum kyu nahi samajh rahi ho?
Maya- Khaao meri kasam!
Arjun- Main tumhari kasam kha kar kehta hoon main yeh shaadi karoonga.
Maya smiled, wiped her tears and left the room.
Maya (to Saanjh)- Congratulations, Saanjh! Arjun maan gaya hain.
Saanjh jumped out of joy.
Saanjh- Sach?
Maya smiled and nodded. Saanjh hugged her.
Saanjh- Thank you, thank you, thank you so much, Maya! Tum nahi jaanti tumne mere liye kya kiya hain. Tum Arjun ki bohot acchi dost ho aur abb toh meri bhi. Tumhe shaadi mein yeh decide karna bohot mushkil hoga ki tum ladke walo ki taraf se aaogi ya ladki walo ke taraf se.
Maya- Saanjh, I don't think main shaadi tak reh paaungi. I really wanted to attend your wedding but New York mein mujhe kuch bohot urgent kaam hain. Main nahi reh paaungi. I'm so sorry.
Saanjh- Mujhe kuch nahi pata! Tum rahogi matlab rahogi. Shaadi hone tak main tumhe kahi nahi jaane doongi. Koi kaam meri shaadi se zyaada urgent nahi
Maya- Par Saanjh...
Saanjh- Koi par war nahi. Tum shaadi hone tak yahi rahogi.
Maya agreed. The wedding rituals had started. Maya had completely mixed herself up with the surroundings. She kept herself busy with the decorations so that she doesn't have time to remember Arjun but every night, she would break down and cry a lot and the next morning, she would be a jolly girl again. Arjun knew this. He knew no matter how hard Maya tried to hide her pain, she was dying from inside and so was he. He cursed himself for the day he had decided to return to India. He couldn't bear it either. Ayaan had been flirting with Maya since the first day and Arjun hated it. Both of them were restless to talk to each other but had no topic. All they could do was stare at each other without a word. Almost all the rituals were done with Arjun and Maya trying to hide their pain. Then came the mehendi ceremony. The mehendi waali came and wrote "A" on Saanjh's palm.
Saanjh- Maya, agar tum bhi kisise pyaar karti ho toh uska naam likhwa lo apne haath pe.
Maya- Mere toh dil pe uska naam likha hua hain, haath pe likhwake kya faayda? Haath pe likha hua naam ek na ek din mit hi jaayega par dil pe likha hua naam kabhi nahi mitega.
Saying this, Maya looked at Arjun who was already looking at her. He sat near her, took the cone from the mehendi waali and started writing something on Maya's palm. Both Saanjh and Maya wondered what he was writing.
Arjun- Kuch log apne dil pe likhe hue naam ko kisi aur ki mehendi bana kar unke haatho mein lagane ki koshish karte hain lekin yeh bhool jaate hain ki uss mehendi ka rang pheeka bhi par sakta hain.
Saying this, Arjun left Maya's palm. He had written "MAYA" on her palm. This shocked both Maya and Saanjh.
Arjun- Lo! Likh diya maine naam uss insaan ka jisse Maya sabse zyaada pyaar karti hain. Woh hain khud Maya! Maya khudse zyaada pyaar kisi aur se nahi karti. In fact, woh khudke alaawa kisi aur se pyaar kar hi nahi sakti.
Arjun's words hurt Maya a lot. She was on the verge of crying so she excused herself, went to her room and cried vigorously.
Saanjh- Arjun, tu kya bakwaas kar raha tha? Maya kitni acchi ladki hain. Sabka kitna khyaal rakhti hain. Sabke baare mein kitna sochti hain.
Arjun- Sabke baare mein sochti hain, bas mere hi baare mein nahi sochti.
Saanjh was confused.
Saanjh- Kya?
Arjun- Kuch nahi! Tu mehendi lagwa.
Arjun also went from there. For the first time ever, Saanjh had felt something strange between Arjun and Maya. She wondered what was wrong between them. That night, neither Arjun nor Maya could sleep. Arjun was on the terrace, smoking a cigarette. Maya, unaware of Arjun's presence, also went to the terrace to watch the night sky. When she saw Arjun there, she was about to leave but Arjun, without even looking at her, stopped her.
Arjun- Ruko, Maya!
Maya was shocked. How could Arjun know that she was behind him even without turning back?
Maya- Arjun, tumhe pata kaise chala ki main yaha hoon?
Arjun- 5 years se tumhare saath reh raha hoon. Tumhari har ek aahat ko pehchanta hoon main.
Maya came close to him.
Maya- Tum itni raat ko yaha kya kar rahe ho? Aur yeh cigarette, pheko ise! Maine mana kiya tha na tumhe cigarette peene se?
Maya took Arjun's cigarette and threw it away.
Arjun- Abb tum meri kuch nahi lagti. Tumne khud humara rishta khatam kiya hain. Toh main kuch bhi karu, isse tumhe kya?
Maya was hurt.
Maya- Arjun, cigarette acchi adaat nahi hain. Health ke liye acchi nahi hoti. Ise chod dena chahiye.
Arjun- Tum bhi meri ek buri aadat ho. Mere aur Saanjh ke rishtey ki sehat ke liye acchi nahi ho. Kya main tumhe bhi hamesha ke liye chod doon?
Maya- Arjun, tum aisi baatein kyu rahe ho? Samajhne ki koshish karo. Abb bohot der ho chuki hain. Abb kuch nahi ho sakta. Main jaa rahi hoon sone. Good night.
Maya was about to go when Arjun held her hand from behind and twisted her arm behind her back. Maya felt a sense of pain.
Maya- Ahh! Arjun, kya kar rahe ho tum? Dard ho raha hain mujhe. Chodo mujhe!
Arjun- Jo dard tumne mujhe diya hain uske aage yeh dard kuch bhi nahi. Kaha main yaha aaya tha tumse apni family ko milwane aur kaha main yaha Saanjh se shaadi kar raha hoon! Yeh sab tumhari wajah se ho raha hain, Maya. Sirf tumhari wajah se. Mahaan banne ka bohot shauq hain na tumhe? Lekin pata hain shaadi ke baad Saanjh ka kya hoga? Do pal ki bhi khushi nahi de paaunga main use. Meri shaadi bhale hi uske saath hogi par suhaagraat toh main tumhare saath hi manaoonga. Legally wife woh hogi lekin wife ke saare rights milenge tumhe. Uski life barbaad ho jaayegi aur inn sab ki zimmadaar sirf tum hogi. Sirf tum!
Saying this, Arjun left Maya's arm, pushed her making her fall and left. Maya started crying vigorously. Next day, it was about time for the marriage rituals to start. Arjun was sitting at the altar waiting for Saanjh. Everyone stood there waiting for Saanjh's arrival and finally, she came. She came wearing her regular kurti and jeans. Everyone was shocked on seeing her that way.
Vandana- Saanjh, tu abhi tak tayyaar nahi hui? Dulhan ka joda diya tha na maine tujhe? Jaa jaldi pehen kar neeche aa. Muhurat chala jaayega.
Saanjh- Dulhan ka joda dulhan ne pehen liya hain, aunty.
Vandana- Kya matlab?
Saanjh- Abhi samjhati hoon. Maya, aa jao!
Then came Maya, in the bridal attire. Everyone was shocked including Arjun. He stood up.
Arjun- Dusky, yeh sab...
Saanjh- Duffer, itni acchi dost maanta hain ki meri khushi ke liye apna pyaar kurbaan karne jaa raha tha tu? Joote khaayega? Ek baar bhi aakar mujhse bol nahi saka ki tu Maya se pyaar karta hain? Woh toh accha hua ki kal raat ko maine tum dono ki saari baatein sun li. Aur yeh Maya, itni mahaan banne jaa rahi thi mere liye. Tumko bhi joote padne chahiye, Maya. Yeh toh shaadi ke liye maan bhi nahi rahi thi. Maine Arjun ki kasam di tab jaake tayyaar hui shaadi ke liye.
Vandana- Beta, par tera kya hoga? Tujhe pata hain na tu kya keh rahi hain?
Saanjh- Aunty, mere liye Arjun ki khushi se zyaada important kuch nahi hain. Aur uski khushi Maya mein hain. Woh Maya se bohot pyaar karta hain. Aur Maya bhi usse bohot pyaar karti hain. Love story toh inn dono ki hain. Main toh uss story ka part kabhi thi hi nahi.
Arjun- Dusky, tujhe nahi pata tune mere liye aaj kya kiya hain. Teen zindagiya barbaad hone se bacha lee tune, Dusky. Teen zindagiya! Thank you so much. Tera yeh ehsaan main kabhi nahi bhool paaunga.
Saanjh hugged Arjun.
Saanjh- Chal abb dialogue mat maar! Shaadi kar Maya se. Panditji mantra shuru kijiye.
Maya and Arjun got married with the blessings of all the elders. They hugged each other.
Arjun- I love you, Maya.
Maya- I love you too, Arjun.
Both of them smiled and Arjun kissed her forehead.
~THE END~
Arjun and Maya had been living together in New York for the last 5 years and now, they had decided to return back to India and get married with the blessings of all elders. They were sitting inside the flight and Maya was a bit nervous.
Maya- Arjun, are you sure tumhari family ko main pasand aaungi? Agar unhe main pasand nahi aayi toh? Agar unhone hume shaadi karne ki permission nahi di toh?
Arjun- Aisa kuch nahi hoga, Maya. Tum bekaar itni tension le rahi ho. Dekh lena, sabko tum bohot pasand aaogi.
Maya- Hope so.
Maya then put her head on Arjun's shoulder and slept. On the other side, in India, Saanjh was looking at the mirror and scanning herself from top to bottom wondering how she looked. She was blushing really bad.
Saanjh (in mind)- Arjun aa raha hain itne saalo baad. Aaj toh accha dikhna hi padega. Pata nahi woh mera purana duffer hain bhi ya badal chuka hain. Par jo bhi ho, main bohot excited hoon.
Ayaan- Oye bas bhi kar abb, aur kitna ghooregi aaine ko? Baar baar aaina dekhne se teri bhootni jaisi shakal acchi nahi ho jaayega. Aur ye sharmana bandh kar. Laal tamaatar lag rahi hain.
Saanjh- Ayaan bas kar! Aur bola na toh joote maarne hain maine tereko. Main koi sharma nahi rahi.
Just then Arjun's mother came and hugged her.
Vandana- Ayaan, meri hone waali bahu ko tangg mat kar. Mere Arjun ki hone wali biwi hain yeh.
Saanjh blushed even more.
Ayaan- Yeh bandariya meri bhabi nahi bann sakti, Maa. Aur kya pata bhai ne already New York mein koi pata rakhi ho.
Saanjh took off her chappal and ran behind Ayaan.
Saanjh- Aaj na tujhe main joote khilaake hi rahungi. Tu rukh beta!
On the other side, Maya and Arjun headed towards Arjun's house holding each other's hand and as soon as they entered, they saw everyone coming towards Arjun. Seeing this, Maya got nervous and left Arjun's hand before anyone could notice. Arjun looked at her confused when his mother came and hugged him.
Vandana- Hayyee mera beta, kitne saalo baad dekh rahi hoon apne bete ko!
Arjun bent down and took her blessings.
Arjun- Kaisi ho, Maa?
Vandana- Tujhe dekh liya na, abb bilkul theek hoon.
Arjun was greeting everyone when his mother saw Maya.
Vandana- Yeh ladki kaun hain, Arjun?
Arjun- Maa, yeh meri...
Arjun was about to tell her the truth but Maya didn't let him.
Maya- Dost! Main dost hoon Arjun ki. India ghoomne ka mann tha toh socha iss baar Arjun ke saath yahi aa jaau. Aap logo ko koi problem toh nahi hain na?
Arjun looked at Maya in a confused state. Maya bent down and took Vandana's blessings.
Vandana- Arrey bilkul nahi beta! Balki hume toh bohot accha laga. Accha, kya naam hain beta tera?
Maya- Maya!
Vandana- Bada pyaara naam hain. Abb jab tak tu yaha hain, ise apna hi ghar samajhna.
Maya- Thank you, Aunty!
Arjun smiled seeing the way Maya was bonding to his mother.
Arjun- Accha, Saanjh kaha hain?
Ayaan- Hogi yahi kahi. Dekh rahi hogi tujhe chup chup ke!
Arjun laughed out loud.
Arjun- Uski yeh aadat gayi nahi? Ruk, abhi dhoondhke aata hoon.
Arjun searched for Saanjh all around the house, and finally, on not finding her anywhere, he went to the terrace. He knew she would be there.
Arjun- Dusky, kaha hain tu? Kahi tu iss water tank ke peeche toh nahi chupi? Ya phir uss staircase ke paas? Ya phir mere peeche?
Saying this, Arjun turned around. Saanjh was standing right behind him. She jumped and hugged him. He hugged her back.
Saanjh- Arjun tujhe nahi pata maine tujhe kitna miss kiya.
Arjun- Maine bhi tujhe bohot miss kiya. Accha chal toh, tujhe kisise milwana hain.
Saanjh- Kisse?
Arjun- Tu chal toh sahi.
Arjun held Saanjh's hand, dragged her to the hall and took her near Maya.
Arjun- Dusky, isse mil, yeh hain Maya!
Maya- Hi Saanjh! Arjun tumhare baare mein bohot baatein karta hain. In fact subah se raat tak bas tumhare hi baare mein baat karta hain.
Saanjh- Arjun, yeh kaun hain?
Arjun- Yeh meri...
Vandana- Arrey Saanjh! Arjun! Tum dono zara yaha aana.
Arjun was about to say the truth to Saanjh but his mother called them.
Saanjh- Chal chal! Aunty bula rahi hain.
Saanjh dragged Arjun leaving Maya alone. She felt quite left out.
Vandana- Arrey Maya beta, tu bhi aa na!
Arjun held Maya's hand and took her with them.
All of them were sitting together.
Vandana- Arjun aur Saanjh, tum dono abb bade ho gaye ho. Abb waqt aa gaya hain ki tum dono apni zindagi ka sabse zaroori faisla lo.
Arjun and Saanjh looked at each other confused.
Arjun- Kaisa faisla?
Vandana- Hum bado ne milkar yeh faisla liye hain ki tum dono ki shaadi kara di jaaye!
Arjun was terrified and so was Maya while Saanjh blushed.
Arjun- Kya? Maa aap kya keh rahi hain? Main Saanjh se kaise shaadi kar sakta hoon?
Saanjh's smile disappeared when she heard this.
Saanjh- Kyu? Kyu nahi kar sakta tu mujhse shaadi? Tujhe main pasand nahi hoon?
Arjun- Nahi aisi baat nahi hain par main...
Saanjh- Tu kya? Kisi aur se pyaar karta hain tu?
Arjun was about to say yes but Maya didn't let him speak.
Maya- Nahi Saanjh, aisa kuch nahi hain. Bas abhi Arjun shaadi ke liye tayyaar nahi hain. Par tum fikar mat karo! Main mana loongi use. Yeh vaada hain mera!
Arjun was angry as hell. He looked at Maya with rage in his eyes and walked upstairs to his room. Saanjh held Maya's hand.
Saanjh- Tum kar paaogi yeh?
Maya smiled and nodded. She then walked to Arjun's room and knocked on the door.
Maya- Arjun, kya main andar aa sakti hoon?
Arjun- Get out, Maya! Get the hell out of my room.
Maya- Arjun, meri baat suno!
Arjun- Kya sunu? Tumne mujhe waha sabko sach bataane kyu nahi diya? Kyu nahi bolne diya sabko ki main tumse pyaar karta hoon?
Maya closed the door.
Maya- Dheere bolo, Arjun! Koi sun lega.
Arjun- Toh sunne do! Aur tum bhi meri ek baat sun lo. Main kisi bhi haal mein Saanjh se shaadi nahi karoonga. Tum kuch bhi kar lo main iss rishtey ke liye haa nahi kahoonga.
Maya- Arjun, tum samajh nahi rahe ho. Tumne shayad Saanjh ki aankhon mein woh nahi dekha jo maine dekha. Woh tumse bohot pyaar karti hain, Arjun. Aur tumhari maa already Saanjh ko apni bahu maan chuki hain. Abb woh jagah Saanjh ke alaawa koi aur ladki le hi nahi sakti, main bhi nahi. Tumhari maa ne tumhare liye itna kuch kiya hain. Kya tum itna bhi nahi kar sakte unke liye?
Arjun- Toh kya karu? Kar lu shaadi Saanjh se? Bann jau uska dulha? Zindagiya barbaad kar lu apni, tumhari aur Saanjh ki bhi? Isse hum teeno ki life barbaad ho jaayegi, Maya! Main Saanjh ko woh pyaar, woh khushi kabhi nahi de paaunga jo koi bhi ladki apne husband se expect karti hain. Maan lo yeh shaadi ho bhi gayi, phir kya? Kya tumhe lagta hain main usse pyaar kar paaunga? Ya phir use khushiyaan de paaunga? Chalo maan liya uski bhi acting kar hi li! Phir jab woh bacche ke baare mein baat karegi toh? Kaha se laakar doonga main use baccha? Main kabhi uske saath intimate relations rakh hi nahi paaunga. Isse humaare saath saath uski bhi toh life barbaad hogi na. Koi khush nahi rahega iss shaadi se. Koi bhi nahi! Dekho Maya, abhi bhi time hain. Hum neeche jaake sab ko sach sach bata dete hain. Tumhe mahaan banna hain toh bano, mujhe koi shauq nahi hain mahaan banne ka!
Maya- Arjun, tumhe yeh shaadi karni hi hogi.
Arjun- Nahi karoonga main yeh shaadi!
Maya- Theek hain!
Maya broke a perfume bottle and put a broken piece of glass near her wrist.
Maya- Abb batao, abb karoge ya nahi tum yeh shaadi?
Arjun- Ma...Maya, tum...tum kya kar rahi ho? Pagal mat bano! Woh...woh glass mujhe do.
Maya- Jawaab do! Haa ya na?
Arjun- Maya, tum pagal ho gayi ho? Woh glass mujhe do.
Maya was about to slit her wrist.
Maya (shouted)- Haa ya na?
Arjun got scared.
Arjun- Haa, haa! Karoonga main yeh shaadi. Tum...Tum please woh glass pheko.
Maya threw the glass, held his hand and put it on her head.
Maya- Meri kasam kha kar kaho tum yeh shaadi karoge!
Arjun- Maya, tum kyu nahi samajh rahi ho?
Maya- Khaao meri kasam!
Arjun- Main tumhari kasam kha kar kehta hoon main yeh shaadi karoonga.
Maya smiled, wiped her tears and left the room.
Maya (to Saanjh)- Congratulations, Saanjh! Arjun maan gaya hain.
Saanjh jumped out of joy.
Saanjh- Sach?
Maya smiled and nodded. Saanjh hugged her.
Saanjh- Thank you, thank you, thank you so much, Maya! Tum nahi jaanti tumne mere liye kya kiya hain. Tum Arjun ki bohot acchi dost ho aur abb toh meri bhi. Tumhe shaadi mein yeh decide karna bohot mushkil hoga ki tum ladke walo ki taraf se aaogi ya ladki walo ke taraf se.
Maya- Saanjh, I don't think main shaadi tak reh paaungi. I really wanted to attend your wedding but New York mein mujhe kuch bohot urgent kaam hain. Main nahi reh paaungi. I'm so sorry.
Saanjh- Mujhe kuch nahi pata! Tum rahogi matlab rahogi. Shaadi hone tak main tumhe kahi nahi jaane doongi. Koi kaam meri shaadi se zyaada urgent nahi
Maya- Par Saanjh...
Saanjh- Koi par war nahi. Tum shaadi hone tak yahi rahogi.
Maya agreed. The wedding rituals had started. Maya had completely mixed herself up with the surroundings. She kept herself busy with the decorations so that she doesn't have time to remember Arjun but every night, she would break down and cry a lot and the next morning, she would be a jolly girl again. Arjun knew this. He knew no matter how hard Maya tried to hide her pain, she was dying from inside and so was he. He cursed himself for the day he had decided to return to India.

The mehendi waali came and wrote "A" on Saanjh's palm.

Maya- Mere toh dil pe uska naam likha hua hain, haath pe likhwake kya faayda? Haath pe likha hua naam ek na ek din mit hi jaayega par dil pe likha hua naam kabhi nahi mitega.
Saying this, Maya looked at Arjun who was already looking at her. He sat near her, took the cone from the mehendi waali and started writing something on Maya's palm. Both Saanjh and Maya wondered what he was writing.
Arjun- Kuch log apne dil pe likhe hue naam ko kisi aur ki mehendi bana kar unke haatho mein lagane ki koshish karte hain lekin yeh bhool jaate hain ki uss mehendi ka rang pheeka bhi par sakta hain.
Saying this, Arjun left Maya's palm. He had written "MAYA" on her palm. This shocked both Maya and Saanjh.
Arjun- Lo! Likh diya maine naam uss insaan ka jisse Maya sabse zyaada pyaar karti hain. Woh hain khud Maya! Maya khudse zyaada pyaar kisi aur se nahi karti. In fact, woh khudke alaawa kisi aur se pyaar kar hi nahi sakti.
Arjun's words hurt Maya a lot. She was on the verge of crying so she excused herself, went to her room and cried vigorously.
Saanjh- Arjun, tu kya bakwaas kar raha tha? Maya kitni acchi ladki hain. Sabka kitna khyaal rakhti hain. Sabke baare mein kitna sochti hain.
Arjun- Sabke baare mein sochti hain, bas mere hi baare mein nahi sochti.
Saanjh was confused.
Saanjh- Kya?
Arjun- Kuch nahi! Tu mehendi lagwa.
Arjun also went from there. For the first time ever, Saanjh had felt something strange between Arjun and Maya. She wondered what was wrong between them. That night, neither Arjun nor Maya could sleep. Arjun was on the terrace, smoking a cigarette. Maya, unaware of Arjun's presence, also went to the terrace to watch the night sky. When she saw Arjun there, she was about to leave but Arjun, without even looking at her, stopped her.
Arjun- Ruko, Maya!
Maya was shocked. How could Arjun know that she was behind him even without turning back?
Maya- Arjun, tumhe pata kaise chala ki main yaha hoon?
Arjun- 5 years se tumhare saath reh raha hoon. Tumhari har ek aahat ko pehchanta hoon main.
Maya came close to him.
Maya- Tum itni raat ko yaha kya kar rahe ho? Aur yeh cigarette, pheko ise! Maine mana kiya tha na tumhe cigarette peene se?
Maya took Arjun's cigarette and threw it away.
Arjun- Abb tum meri kuch nahi lagti. Tumne khud humara rishta khatam kiya hain. Toh main kuch bhi karu, isse tumhe kya?
Maya was hurt.
Maya- Arjun, cigarette acchi adaat nahi hain. Health ke liye acchi nahi hoti. Ise chod dena chahiye.
Arjun- Tum bhi meri ek buri aadat ho. Mere aur Saanjh ke rishtey ki sehat ke liye acchi nahi ho. Kya main tumhe bhi hamesha ke liye chod doon?
Maya- Arjun, tum aisi baatein kyu rahe ho? Samajhne ki koshish karo. Abb bohot der ho chuki hain. Abb kuch nahi ho sakta. Main jaa rahi hoon sone. Good night.
Maya was about to go when Arjun held her hand from behind and twisted her arm behind her back. Maya felt a sense of pain.
Maya- Ahh! Arjun, kya kar rahe ho tum? Dard ho raha hain mujhe. Chodo mujhe!
Arjun- Jo dard tumne mujhe diya hain uske aage yeh dard kuch bhi nahi. Kaha main yaha aaya tha tumse apni family ko milwane aur kaha main yaha Saanjh se shaadi kar raha hoon! Yeh sab tumhari wajah se ho raha hain, Maya. Sirf tumhari wajah se. Mahaan banne ka bohot shauq hain na tumhe? Lekin pata hain shaadi ke baad Saanjh ka kya hoga? Do pal ki bhi khushi nahi de paaunga main use. Meri shaadi bhale hi uske saath hogi par suhaagraat toh main tumhare saath hi manaoonga. Legally wife woh hogi lekin wife ke saare rights milenge tumhe. Uski life barbaad ho jaayegi aur inn sab ki zimmadaar sirf tum hogi. Sirf tum!
Saying this, Arjun left Maya's arm, pushed her making her fall and left. Maya started crying vigorously. Next day, it was about time for the marriage rituals to start. Arjun was sitting at the altar waiting for Saanjh. Everyone stood there waiting for Saanjh's arrival and finally, she came. She came wearing her regular kurti and jeans. Everyone was shocked on seeing her that way.
Vandana- Saanjh, tu abhi tak tayyaar nahi hui? Dulhan ka joda diya tha na maine tujhe? Jaa jaldi pehen kar neeche aa. Muhurat chala jaayega.
Saanjh- Dulhan ka joda dulhan ne pehen liya hain, aunty.
Vandana- Kya matlab?
Saanjh- Abhi samjhati hoon. Maya, aa jao!
Then came Maya, in the bridal attire. Everyone was shocked including Arjun. He stood up.
Arjun- Dusky, yeh sab...
Saanjh- Duffer, itni acchi dost maanta hain ki meri khushi ke liye apna pyaar kurbaan karne jaa raha tha tu? Joote khaayega? Ek baar bhi aakar mujhse bol nahi saka ki tu Maya se pyaar karta hain? Woh toh accha hua ki kal raat ko maine tum dono ki saari baatein sun li. Aur yeh Maya, itni mahaan banne jaa rahi thi mere liye. Tumko bhi joote padne chahiye, Maya. Yeh toh shaadi ke liye maan bhi nahi rahi thi. Maine Arjun ki kasam di tab jaake tayyaar hui shaadi ke liye.
Vandana- Beta, par tera kya hoga? Tujhe pata hain na tu kya keh rahi hain?
Saanjh- Aunty, mere liye Arjun ki khushi se zyaada important kuch nahi hain. Aur uski khushi Maya mein hain. Woh Maya se bohot pyaar karta hain. Aur Maya bhi usse bohot pyaar karti hain. Love story toh inn dono ki hain. Main toh uss story ka part kabhi thi hi nahi.
Arjun- Dusky, tujhe nahi pata tune mere liye aaj kya kiya hain. Teen zindagiya barbaad hone se bacha lee tune, Dusky. Teen zindagiya! Thank you so much. Tera yeh ehsaan main kabhi nahi bhool paaunga.
Saanjh hugged Arjun.
Saanjh- Chal abb dialogue mat maar! Shaadi kar Maya se. Panditji mantra shuru kijiye.
Maya and Arjun got married with the blessings of all the elders. They hugged each other.
Arjun- I love you, Maya.
Maya- I love you too, Arjun.
Both of them smiled and Arjun kissed her forehead.
