Welcome to Choti bahu..Daily reviews with Eva.. - Page 93

Dec 23rd

The episode start with Radhika telling Vaishali that she will be downstairs for this Brihashpati puja. Somehow Vaishali was very happy and was grinning like an idiot. She walks back to Radh and confirms really choti bahu? Radh nodes slowly with a smile.. Vaishlai says she will send the cloths and ornaments to wear in Puja. Radh nodes slowly. Vaishali leaves the room happily but Radh looks pensive. She knows in her heart that Dev will not like that.

Dev enters with a tea tray as soon as Vaishali leaves. He keeps the tea tray on the bed and says happily that after drinking one cup of hot tea I will get you ready by myself.. he picks up the cup puts it in the plate and hands over to Radh saying here it is. Now tell me what color you want to wear today. (Wow what a husband ) and he starts walking but Radh stops him saying please do not bring any cloths from the closet. Radh's tone was as if requesting him.....Today is puja and I will have to wear those cloths for puja. Dev does not like that and he frowns at her but Radh just smiles at him mildly. Meanwhile the servant walks in with the tray and keeps it on the table saying Mother has sent these cloths and ornaments for Choti Bahu.... Dev looks at the tray and sees heavy jewellery. He frowns at those and says Radhika you do not need to go for puja in this condition you need to rest here.. Radh looks down for a second and than says in requesting tone. Please try to understand this puja is really necessary. Please make me ready in puja's cloths. Dev does not want to listen to that. His only concern is her.... He says do you understand what you are trying to say? Radh looks down. Dev says in these cloths and in this ornaments your condition will be worsen Radh looks down again (she knows he is right but she needed to do this) Dev says these cloths and these ornaments are really heavy and they will hurt you. She says nothing like that will happen. These are all auspicious cloths and I am going to wear it only for little time. Dev keeps thinking.. Radh as if trying to make him understand says and this puja is for us that we would be blessed with a child and for the happiness of this family.. Dev looks at her and says in his grim voice that what ever may be the reason this puja will not be done today..... Radh tries to coax him saying after taking the decision if you do not do the puja than it is considered bad omen. But Dev does not want to listen to any arguments his decision has been made..

Oh I love him when in very grim voice he puts his foot down.... (He is now standing straight and has joined his two palms in front of his body giving the posture of decision maker) He says Radhika, once I have told you it is not to be done than it is not to be done.... and for that if something wrong is being done than let it be.. If it becomes as bad omen than let it be.. and he so vehemently says and for that if the whole family is upset that let them be but you will not sit in this puja.. He said the last sentence so angrily Radh instantly looks up at him but does not say the word and that ceases all her arguments....

The second scene is at VR where Devki is filling the little water jug in the kitchen.. she was about to walk out in the porch but Ammaji calls her.. she turns and says yes ammaji... Amma asks about where her son was.... to that Devki says he has gone to mandir. But than looking at the downcast face of ammaji's she says what's the matter ammaji you look so worried. Didn't you sleep at night? Amma as if was just looking for the chance to say something menacing .. She said why do you worry? You do not care about me.. Devki does not say a word. Amma says your own daughter is wandering outside.... Devki says ammaji please do not worry about Vishakha she must be in Mumbai by now.. Amma sarcastically nodes her head and says do you want to go to Mumbai to meet your daughter? Mumbai is in Vrndavan itself.. behind the hospital' Devki is confused now.. she comes forward and says what do you mean by that? Amma says your daughter is in VR in Purab's house.. Devki is in real shock while ammaji is glaring at her.. Devki says OMG what are you saying ammaji.. My daughter is with a strange man? (who is not her husband?).

Amma frustratingly says why don't you bring her in this house.. Devki says with tears no ammaji.. I cannot not do anything against my husband's wish.. I cannot do anything..... Devki is devastated and amma taunts her that this is all your doings.. For you that Radhika is your real daughter and Vish is adopted.. Than she says before anyone knows in VR it is really necessary to take her out of there. Devki says but amma if she does not go to MB than where will she go? Amma says leave that to me I will take care of those things and leaves the house. Devki stands there crying....

Now we come back to Delhi at Purohit Bhavan Where Panditji has already started the initial rituals for Brihaspati Puja.. Vaishali walks in with a smile and sits on the floor and says could we start the puja.. Pandit says I ready have started the rituals and as soon as the RP come I will start the puja. Dadima walks in and has a surprised look on her face she frowns at all these and asks Vaishali as what is all happening..... Vaishlai looks at her and so does every one else.. even panditjee looks at dadima.. Dadima does not waste time and in her censoring tone says Bahu we already talked about this at night that we will not do this puja today.. Vaishali gets up from the floor and says we talked about it but the decision was taken and preparation was done so.... Dadima was mad she says so.. Vaishali was speechless in front of dadima.. bad purohits were enjoying this drama..

Dadima says you know the reason why we did not want to do this puja now. Pandit was also looking at this display.. Dadima says the condition of Choti bahu is not such that she could sit in this puja.. and still you went ahead and did all this arrangements.. Vaishali was trying to argue with dadima .. Maji you know that this puja is very necessary.. Dadima gravely says there is nothing more important than Choti bahu's health. Vaishali says with a smile that Choti Bahu has given her consent and that's why I did all this preparation.. But right than Dev walks in and says in his grim voice. No, Radhika will not come for this puja. Vaishali's smile vanished and Mrinalini was enjoying all these. All stand up as if to leave.. Vaishali looks around and says Dev what are you saying? Dev says I am telling you the truth.. Radhika will not come for this puja.. He says Mother she is no condition to come for this puja.. all those heavy ornaments will hurt her and she will have lot of pain and I will not let that happen.. bad purohits smiles at this and both the Pandits look at each other. Vaishali says Dev we have taken the decision for this puja.... Dev says If you have taken this decision than you break that promise.. On this pandit was totally stunned and he looks at Dev in shock. Dev says by yesterday's incident I do not want to do anything that Radh will have added problem. Pandit was really upset he says if you have so many different opinion in the family than why would you call us.. and here we already started the rituals. Dev looks down. Panditji says have you considered the results if you cancel this puja.. Do you know why do we do the Puja for Brihaspati? To be blessed with a child, you know that right. If something goes wrong than who will be responsible? Looking at the situation dadima says Dev, I am aware of the situation but they have already started the puja. I think we should let the puja be complete.. Dev says ok dadima if you wish to go ahead than do not stop the puja but in this puja I will sit alone. All look at Dev with shocked expressions..

Dev turns gravely to the Panditji and says Mahantji you can start the puja with me my wife will not come for this puja. Mahant was upset and says what are you talking about? You are an RP & you are aware of the rituals. This puja is for you and your wife. In this puja the presence of you wife is really necessary. Dev says but my wife cannot sit with those heavy cloths and heavy jewels. Mahantji was now really irritated.. He says are you talking about he weight of the jewels? Don't you know the importance of those ornaments? Those were made sacred by Mantras and they are not just ordinary ornaments they are the blessings of Brihaspati. And this is the custom that a Rajpurohitine should wear these ornaments in this puja.

Shushi makes such a rude remarks saying Mahantji you are right but we cannot trouble our very burnt bahu.. Dev looks at him so angrily as if he will just throttle him. Chacha says she is helpless she cannot come for puja .. Mahantji says I do feel for that I am not made of stone. But let me tell you the result of cancelling this puja.. the bottom line is this that if you cancel this puja, this family will not get the heir.. we have already started calling on Brihaspati and if he gets angry after calling on him be prepared to bare his anger. Mahantji says either Choti Bahu will sit in this puja or this puja will be broken. Dev was given all these options to rethink his decision but he was standing like unmovable pillar. He said in a grim voice the puja which gives discomfort to my Radhika may be broken. Dadima was shocked but does not say a word. Dev continues in a grave tone.. I do not want to please any God by troubling my Radhika. Panditji was getting angry by his decision.. He says in anger Devbabu I am really upset with you. You are not being a Rajpurohit but just a husband. You being a person who teaches the rules is now breaking the rules. If you being the Rajpurohit break the rules than you are insulting your position as Rajpurohit.. Dadima does not like that statement. She said mahantji please wait I will talk with Dev. Puja will not be broken. But Dev is so adamant in his decision.. He says dadima whatever misdoing is done will be done by me. I am ready to take all the blame for this. Now Mahantji was really angry he says ok than if this is your decision than it's ok. and angrily He takes the holy water from the Kalash to defuse the fire of the Puja..

Angrily taking the water in his hand he closes his eyes and starts saying Manras and lifts his hand to throw the water in the fire.. Dev was stubbornly looking at that.

Suddenly we hear Radh's voice.. saying Please stop Mahantji.. Dev turns to look back at Radh and so everyone else too. Mahantji brings his hand down looking at Radh.

Radh was wearing yellow saree and heavy ornaments and her both hands were in white bandages. Deepika runs to support her.. Dev looks at her with all those heavy jewels and feels sad. She haltingly walks toward Dev and comes and stands in front of Dev. He says painfully what did you do Radhika? Radh says I am doing my duties. This puja should not be broken.. because this puja is being done for the heir this family is waiting since long. (dadima looks at her as if oh what a gem of a girl') she says If by doing this puja I am able to take the blessings from Brihaspati than it is beneficial for the whole family. and my pain is nothing compared to the happiness of this family. Dev's eyes are starting to get tears. Vaishali happily wipes her tears.. Radh so humbly with a downcast eyes and joined palms requests her husband saying please do not stop me. I am requesting you.. Dev slowly shakes his head as if saying you do not need to request me.. than he puts both his hand on her joined hand as if giving her permission.. This was so beautifully done it just makes you this wow what a scene...

Dev himself helps his wife to sit for the puja and than sits beside her. Radh looking at Mahantji says Mahantji I am sorry for the delay.. Please start the puja.. Mahantji now looked revealed and happy. He looks at Dev and says RajPurohitji please change your cloths and wear the ones for Puja. Dev looks at Radh who requests him with a slight node to do as Mahantji says.. Dev gets up to change his cloths..

Now we are at VR again. Vishakha got hold of Vikram and says where are you? I was waiting for you. Why did not you meet me? Vikram says I came to VR and was at the address you gave me but one person told me that you do not leave here. Vish mumbles it would be babuji... She says but where are you right now? He says I came to Delhi for some work. And than their line gets disconnected... In anger Vish throws her phone and says in her heart that she needs to go to Delhi...

At PB Dev comes back with the change of cloths. He wears kurta and dhoti looking dashing as usual.. Panditji starts saying the yellow color is the color of Guru (Venus) this color is the sign of wealth and prosperity. And that's why we donate the yellow colored things.. Trays were brought to them so that they could touch it and would be donated later on.....

Now the puja starts.. As the puja is progressing and radh's hand starts bleeding.. Dev looks at those and is upset and concern... He kept looking back at her but Radh smiles at him saying with her eyes to proceed for the puja.. Mahantji looks at those and shakes his head but keeps on reciting the mantras. Everyone waches how painful it is for Choti bahu but she keeps on doing this puja. With the Pranm to Krishna idols puja was concluded.. Dev looks at Radh and her wounds and is really upset but Radh was smiling at him.. All this time Dev was holding Radh's left hand which was bleeding... Mahantji addressing dadima says.. Maji the puja is concuded.. Your choti bahu is really great. I was watching her pain but there was not a single crease on her head. This is the real example of a true devotional heart. I can tell you with full confidence that The god Bruhaspati would be pleased and will bless the newly wed husband and wife and very soon the couple will have a child playing in their lap.. Radh sweetly looks at Dev who was looking at her.. mahantji says by looking at he devotion of your Choti bahu I would say that 33 million gods will bless them with happy married life.. and he concludes his blessings... Dev and Radh do final Pranam together.

Wow what an awesome episode. Radh emerging very strong and a perfect Rajpurohitine ...

As Vaishali was fearing that she will become dependent of Dev and hamper him.. but even in this physical condition.. She became the strength of Dev.. Though she came down against direct order of her husband but she knew that in doing this she will not insult her husband but he will be honored.. She came so humbly to him asking forgiveness for disobeying and also asks permission to be seated for puja.. She knew her husband will be mad at every one for making her do this. Yet she pleads him with her eyes to do as Mahnatji told him to. She protects the name and the reputation of her husband in any condition.. She did not care for her own health but her goal was how to stand by her husband's side and protect his honor...

Dev knows how difficult it was for her to get ready by herself and to wear those heavy jewels. His heart was in his eyes looking at her with all these heavy things. He just could not bear the thought of what those are doing to her and how painful is each step and each action is for her but he respected her sacrifice to bring happiness in the family and honors her by allowing her to sit for the puja.. a real arthangini and a true Rajpurohitine'

Today she got the honor as a Choti bahu and the RajPurohitine.. Way to go Radh'

Dadima also knew how difficult it was for her Choti Bahu but she for the sake of her husband's honor and for the sake of the family took everything upon herself and came down for puja to protect the honor and reputation of her husband.. she did not have enough words for her praise she just looked and was amazed at her inner strength and devotion. Oh She knows in her heart that this is the one for my Dev. She is the one who will complete Dev..

And Dev? He was so magnificent to day... Loved the way he put his foot down with radh.

Now we are back at VR.. Vish is ready to go to Delhi' She is at the bus stand.. Bus for Delhi is ready to go she was about to step in Amma sees her and calls her.. She stops amma comes near says I am glad that you are going to Delhi.. Vish said how do you know? Amma says I went to Purabs and he told me. She adds before going to Delhi I want to give you advice that after going there you take over your territory and settle there. Vish looks at her annoyingly but does not answer.. saying good bye she hugs amma and was about to step in the bus and suddenly feels dizzy and faints and falls on the ground.

Precap.. Ammaji is looks as if crying and says what did you do Vishakha..
