Khushi dressed up in a simple salwar khameez and came down...
All were busy decorating the house with fairy lights, flowers and beautiful turquoise and gold colour decorations... Mami, NK, Akash, Payal and the little ones too...
Khushi saw them and just stood looking at them... She remembered it was Anjali's wedding anniversary... The couple are to celebrate their 4th wedding anniversary.. Anjali had married Shaleen when Sanju was 2 years old...

Just then Anjali walks in after her morning mandir prayers and she was amazed looking at the house so beautifully decorated... She smiled widely and complimented everyone... Everyone hugged them and wished them Happy Marriage Anniversary... Khushi was still at the stairs looking at them all...She was glad that Anjali had found the perfect man in her life...Shaleen.. the man who held her hand when she needed support the most...
Mami asked anjali to go and get prepared for the evening function... she is suppose to look like a princess... Sanju jumped like a kangaroo towards her and said she has chosen saree for her to wear..its mamu's favourite colour... atleast we will feel his presence...
Everyone paused for a moment and moved their gaze towards the stairs... they saw Khushi... she was awake... Anjali quickly walked up to her and told her to go back to the bed as her leg is badly injured... Khushi tells her she is fine and is waiting for Dr. Jyoti to come...'She is coming for Arnavji's check up Di', Khushi informed Anjali... Anjali softly nodded and kissed Khushi's forehead...
Khushi knew Anjali was very much worried about her... I'm absolutely fine di... don't worry about me... She continue stepping down without showing the immerse pain she could feel... as she reached the last step.. she turned toward Anjali who was still looking at her...
"Happy wedding anniversary Di..." Khushi smiled slightly.. that was enough for Anjali... she felt as if GOD has indicated that everything will soon heal... Khushi's faith was slowly returning... her smile was becoming visible... Arnav started slight movements... They have suffered enough... now was time to celebrate the upcoming happiness!!!
The door bell rang... Khushi who was already nearby just took few more steps and opened the door... Dr. Jyoti was standing there...absolutely simple and sweet looking...
Dr. Jyoti Modi.. a single, 26 years old physiotherapist in Sanjivani Hospital 😃. She is the daughter of Dr. Shashank Modi; Khushi's uncle... with this Jyoti and Khushi are cousin sisters. ***{Khushi's surname is Gupta because she was adopted by Shashi Gupta, Payal's dad... however Khushi's original surname is Modi😆}***
Khushi was unaware about her cousin working in Sanjivani Hospital or even staying in Delhi. Khushi was introduced to Dr. Jyoti by Dr. Vibz , Raizada's family doctor when he declared that Arnav needs a physiotherapist to keep him ongoing since he is bedridden. Khushi was shocked to see it was her cousin sister. Since then Dr. Jyoti and Khushi became closer but none of the Raizada's had met Jyoti before. This was the first time she came home for Arnav's check-up which normally would be done by her assistant. Arnav had shown improvement thus Dr. Jyoti decided to do it on her own.
Dr. Jyoti hugged Khushi and greeted her. Payal too came at the door to meet her and welcomed her inside. Khushi introduced her to the rest of the family member... Dr. Jyoti bent down to take Nani's blessings. She tried with Mami too but Mami said she is young so not to treat her like old aunty... With this they giggled and hugged each other.. Dr. Jyoti holded her palms together greeting Akash with a simple Namaste..
Dr. Jyoti looked around and was amazed looking at the house so beautifully decorated. Payal realized the puzzle look on her face and wiped it off by informing her that it is Anjali's wedding anniversary and they are going to celebrate it. Khushi told Jyoti that she wanted called in yesterday to invite her but didn't manage to get through. Dr. Jyoti said its really sweet of them to invite her but she would be busy so some other time but Nani was adamant. She told Jyoti that they would really feel happy if Jyoti would join them in their celebration. Even mami told Jyoti that Khushi would feel good if she comes since she is the only relative of Khushi from her real father's side. Jyoti looked at Khushi and smiled gently nodding in agreement to the invitation...
Aayal came forward and said..."Hy.. I'm Aayal Singh Raizada... Please to meet you and welcome home Dr. Jyoti"... That 4 year old kid literally stole Jyoti's heart. He was too cute.. She went on her knees and gave a quick perk on his cheeks... He immediately rubbed it and say... "Please Doctor.. I'm a big boy.. Don't kiss me like that" Aayal was irritated with the kiss but that made Dr. Jyoti laughed even louder...
NK who was busy fixing on of the lights heard the laugh and felt a pull towards it... As he was walking up towards the living area when he suddenly saw a divide beauty walking out of the white lace curtains he had just fixed awhile back...
NK couldn't remove his gaze off her... He was literally shocked to see such a gorgeous face... Who is she? Where did she come from...? Whats her name...? What is she doing here...? All these questions started forming up in his head while he continuously looked at her..
Khushi was walking behind Jyoti just guiding her to the kitchen as Jyoti wanted to make some turmeric paste for Khushi's feet as Dr. Vibz had told her about the condition of Khushi's feet. Khushi saw NK staring and admiring Jyoti whereby Jyoti was looking at him with confused eyes.
Before this unfortunate incident took place in their lives, Khushi had always been after NK to find a suitable girl for himself and settled down.. But he always told her he was a girl as pretty as Khushi, sanskari as Payal and gentle as Anjali... Khushi would laugh and say looks like he has to be bachelor for the rest of his life because no such girl exist... Well who knew... she did existed... Dr. Jyoti Modi... Khushi after such a long time genuinely smiled looking at NK and Jyoti... She thought Jyoti would be perfect for NK...
Khushi gently touched Jyoti's shoulder bring her back to reality... They both walked away and NK's gaze just followed... He quickly went to the living hall and stopped Akash who was about to go to his room...
'Hey Akash... Who is this beautiful bakri (goat)?' NK asked...
'Haih??? Bakri...??? You mean Misscall?? Laxmi... Tum nahi jaanat ho usse NK babuwa (Don't you know her NK)?? Uu Sasuma ki phavourite sadaysa hai.. (She is MIL's favourite family member) Mami answer as she heard NK... But Akash was surprised with that question as if something is not right...
Wow...!!! Mamiji... uska naam Laxmi hai (Her name is Laxmi)??? Thora traditional hai but chalega... mera bhi naam toh traditional hai (Its alittle traditional but its okie as even mine is traditional).. Nand Kishore... ohh wow!!! we both are named after the God and Goddess... She is so beautiful.. such innocent face.. her face glows as if tubelight.. NK was praising Jyoti thinking her name is Laxmi...
Akash who was even more surprised now asked NK... NK bhai... are you talking about Laxmi, Nani's bakri... goat i mean??
Huh!!! What goat Akash?? I'm talking about the girl in yellow Salwar suit just now... Akash laughed his heart out... NK bhai... BAKRI nahi... LARKI (Not Goat but Lady) !!!! He continued laughing while NK felt like an idiot...
Akash told him about Jyoti... and NK was asking for more and more information... Manorama was surprised with NK's enquiry and as she asked NK told her its getting late.. she needs time to ready.. Manorama quickly went off to her room to get ready... Payal who heard their entire conversation told NK.. Devarji... Dr. Jyoti raat ke function keliye aarahi hai (Dr. Jyoti is joining us for the function at night) ... Payal wink teasing NK while he smiled widely... he needs to look at his best he thought...Thank you Payal bhabi for the information...😉
Anjali and Shaleen came downstairs after taking a look at the costume Sanju had selected for them... Shaleen said he would be back in awhile as he needs to go an submit his script to the director... Anjali nodded and reminded him to come back on time... Shaleen kissed her forehead and said I will not let you complain specially on this date... 😳 They both shared a lovely hug... Nani who was sitting at the living hall which was certain unnoticed by the love birds cleared her throat bring them out of their romance mode... Anjali blushed while Shaleen was embarrassed... he quickly took a leave...
Khushi who was heading to Arnav's room with Jyoti stopped by at Anjali.. She introduced them and informed Anjali that Jyoti would be joining them for the evening function. Jyoti wished Anjali and they shared a hug... Anjali and Khushi together brought Jyoti to Arnav's room where Sanju was reading a story to him... Jyoti smiled widely seeing the lil angel of Raizada... She asked Khushi if this is their daughter... Khushi smiled and said much more than their daughter...
Jyoti.. this is Sanjana... Anjali Di's daughter... Sanjana said namaste sweetly... Jyoti kissed her forehead.. Anjali told Sanju to go and play with Aayal as her Arnav Mama needs to be checked by Dr. Jyoti... Sanju quickly obeyed... Jyoti complimented Anjali for such a beautiful daughter... Khushi spreaded the curtains of their room apart... letting the sun rays to shine in... Arnav was wide awake... Khushi told him this is Dr. Jyoti, his physio... Khushi filled Jyoti with Arnav's report and the few changes that took place these few days...
First he moved his finger... then Anjali added that Arnav called out Khushi's name and he tried lifting his hands... Jyoti was surprised with all these information... She then checked him and said... "These are very positive sign.. looks like the road of recovery is not far now.. Khushi and Anjali had tears in their eyes... Dr. Jyoti continued doing some more check up while Anjali held Khushi's shoulder and ensured her that Arnav will soon recover and be normal. Khushi smiled nodding at Anjali... she too hoped the same...
Once Dr. Jyoti was done checking... She told Khushi and Anjali to step aside as she needs to talk to them privately... The trio walked toward the poolside... "Jyoti...sab thik toh hai naa aise achanak... (is everything alright.. suddenly like this..) Khushi asked anxiously but before she could complete her sentence Jyoti said.. Khushi darne wali koi baat nahi hai... mujhe bas kuch cheeze janni hai about the movement... (Nothing to worry Khushi.. I just want to know somethings related to the movement he made)...
Anjali told her that Khushi was very much upset that night when Payal and herself put Khushi off to bed... Khushi added that she slept but had nightmares so she kept feeling insecure.. Just then Arnav had moved his fingers touching her palm.. as if he was trying to comfort her... Jyoti then asked about the incident where he called out for Khushi and tried lifting his hands... Anjali explained that Khushi was in dargah walking on the burning coal... The immerse pain her heart went through probably shaken Arnav's heart and soul... but she didn't witness this as she too was in dargah...Anjali clarified.. But nani and mami saw and heard it... Jyoti was in deep thought.. Khushi and Anjali kept looking at each other confused...
Aayal shouted out loud for Payal... Hearing him Akash, Manorama and Payal rushed towards him wondering what happened... They saw him peacefully sitting on the antic couch.. but then why did he scream all wondered...
Beta.. kya huva... aap chilaye kyu (what happened son.. why did you scream)?? Payal asked while pampering Aayal...
Mummy.. humein party enjoy kerni hai but aap sab tayar hi nahi huve hai...(Mummy I want to enjoy the party but none of you are ready) Aayal said and made a pouted face...
Hello Hi Bye Bye... Aayal bitwa... hum ka tumko beautiphul nahi lagat hai ke tum aisen keh rahe ho ke hum ready nahi... (Don't you think I look beautiful since you are saying I'm not ready).. Manorama and her english...
Dadi... Bye bye.. Aayal pouted again.. everyone laughed at his tiny anger... Bilkul chotte jaisen gussa karat hai hamra Aayal bitwa (His temper is just like our Arnav)... Nani added the comment...Aayal gave a huge smile at this comment.. He loves being compared to his Bade Papa...
They were all ready but were just waiting for Anjali, Shaleen, Sanju and Khushi to come down... but NK was certainly waiting for someone else to come..
Manorama
Payal & Akash
Naniji
NK
Garima, Shashi & Buaji
Guest has started coming thus Payal decided to go and get the couple down as they were the limelight of the night... Just as she forwarded her step towards the staircase... the trio were walking down themselves...
Anjali & Shaleen were dressed in black as Sanju had selected the colour for them as Arnav loves that colour... She herself wore a sweet red dress because that's Arnav's 2nd favourite colour...
The DJ started playing the music and everyone were mingling around... some were gossiping.. some were congratulating the couple... Out of everyone.. NK was just stuck by the door.. Akash noticed it and thought of teasing him more...
NK bhai... are you waiting for the 'BAKRI'?? NK made an annoyed face but Akash laughed it off... They brothers were teasing each other when NK's dream girl walked in... Dr. Jyoti Modi...
She was dressed in a very simple and sweet colour saree... complementing her skin colour.. NK couldn't take of his eyes.. well that was nothing new but Jyoti kept staring at NK too... he looked hot... that was the thought which formed in her brains... now.. thats certainly something new...
Payal and Anjali welcomed Jyoti and they all greeted one another... Anjali and Jyoti shared a serious look which Payal didn't notice... Jyoti then asked for Khushi which made everyone realise that Khushi wasn't with them since just now...
NK was seen going up towards ArShi's room... Anjali pointed it out that NK has gone to call her...Everyone were busy talking, eating and enjoying the soft music... Just then Sanju saw her beautiful mami by the stairs... WOW!!!! Mami look so different and pretty...
Everyone was stunned... Khushi who had completed changed her outlook once again looked like the old Khushi... just the same.. only the smile was missing... Sanju run towards her mami as she wanted to be the first one to compliment her...Just as Khushi started moving down... NK was seen carrying Arnav down the stairs... this is the first time in one year Arnav was taken out of his room... everyone was surprised seeing him so helpless and dependent... NK gently placed Arnav on the wheelchair which was being held by Khushi... everyone's eyes moist but they were happy at least he will be among them... Khushi sat on a couch and kept the wheelchair just next to her...
The party started... Akash was the host of the evening along with Payal...
First they showed Anjali & Shaleen's wedding pictures and some of their moments together...
Everyone clapped as the presentation slides were over... Anjali and Shaleen looked at each other and blushed... Shaleen hugged Anjali and kissed her forehead... Anjali couldn't wish for anything more... Shaleen was a very loving and caring husband and an awesome father to Sanju...
Suddenly the lights dimmed off... Anjali realized Shaleen wasn't next to her.. she panicked... everyone else were surprised by the lights... Anjali was about to get up when suddenly she paused and looked at the stage...She was shell shocked... She couldn't believe what she was seeing... Everyone started clapping...Sanju run to grab a seat next to her mom... its was a treat for them...
[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKJxl0_v0VI&feature=channel&list=UL[/YOUTUBE]
The entire crowd was stunned by the wonderful performance.. everyone appluaded loudly... Even Khushi was touched seeing the performance... throughout she held Arnav's hand... as if thanking him for bring Shaleen into Anjali's life... Anjali was literally in tears... Shaleen had gone through alot just for her to agree being his life partner...but it was worthy as Shaleen always said...
*Flashback*
Anjali's childhood friend, Gul had just produced a serial 'Kavyanjali' and she invited Anjali over... after so much of pestering, Anjali finally gave in and promised to attend the party. Anjali dressed as simple as possible as she had lost interest in looking good since that idotic SHYAM had played with her life and feelings...Shaleen too was there as he was the writer of the serial.
Say it was a co-incident or destiny but the serial too had the name 'Anjali'... Shaleen was asked about a girl that he would wish for to be his life partner... Just as he was describing the 'imaginary her'... Anjali walked in the entrance.. the reporter saw Anjali and felt as if Shaleen was talking about Anjali... She then said.. 'Mr. Shaleen kahi aap unki toh baat nahi ker rahe hai... (Mr. Shalee, are you speaking about the lady there)??.. Shaleen turned to look at the lady the reported meant... and his gaze were glue... she is exactly as I wished for...
Shaleen approached Anjali.. but Anjali walked away.. he tried a few times but in vain.. finally he saw Anjali sitting alone in the lawn outside.. he went and sat next to her...She was about to get up and go but he held on her hand... Anjali got really pissed of at this and she slapped him... 'How dare you touch me'... Anjali walked away in anger... Shaleen was suppose to be angry but he was rather amazed... She is exactly the type of lady love he was waiting for... that instant he knew she is the one...
Anjali was very much disturbed but she got much more annoyed when Shaleen started singing...
He started walking around Anjali.. pointing at her.. everyone in the party knew he was singing it for her... She was feeling really irritated and embarrassed... Her friend noticed the tension between them but she really wanted Anjali to move on and Shaleen is a good guy since she know him...
Shaleen was really confident with his feeling just by the very first glance... Anjali had a bad past.. she couldn't just move on... besides Shaleen doesn't even know her name.. thus this was a childish act to her... Finally when Shaleen held on to her right hand and tried kissing it... Anjali pulled it away and left the party... Shaleen looked amazed at her gesture... Gul came to Shaleen and held his shoulder... he questioned her about Anjali and Gul explained everything from her family past, 1st wedding breaking off, losing her parents, getting married to Shyam, his betrayal, her daughter... Gul expected Shaleen to back off specially after knowing Anjali was once married and she has a daughter from that marriage... but she was wrong... Shaleen was more determine to make Anjali his better half and love her daughter like his own... Gul was proud of it and helped him in convincing Anjali... its wasn't that easy...
However, Arnav came to know about it. He then met Shaleen but Shaleen was unaware that ASR is Anjali's brother.. Arnav spent approximately 3 months trying to know Shaleen while Shaleen still tried getting Anjali... no one knew but Anjali was very much effected by Shaleen... she used to think alot about him but her bad past and her current didn't allow her to move on in the better future... But this wasn't hidden from Arnav... he had seen his sister missing Shaleen... He caught her admiring the saree Shaleen had sent... she kept the flowers really well when Shaleen had sent it over through a florist... if she hated him... she would have threw it the second she got those things... but she kept them rather well...
After being fully satisfied, doing a background check, keeping some spy behind Shaleen.. Arnav concluded that he is a good guy... he is nothing like Shyam.. then Arnav invited Shaleen home for dinner... Arnav had informed everyone to be in their best... he told Khushi to prepare all Anjali's favourite food... The wait was finally over.. Shaleen walked in the and greeted Arnav... he was introduced to all the family members... He then saw Anjali coming down the stairs and was about to slip from the stairs... he ran towards her and caught her just in time... they had an eyelocking session... All the other family members were stunned... Arnav went to Nani and softly told her that he is thinking of getting Anjali married again and this guy loves her to the core.. At first Nani was shocked but if it was Arnav who said it... then it surely was for Anjali and Sanjana's best...
Shaleen and Anjali came to their senses and both were equally shocked seeing each other... Shaleen asked.. Anjaliji aap yaha (Anjali.. you here?)... Anjali was like this is my brother's house... and you?? Shaleen replied.. I was invited by ASR...they both looked at each other then at a smirking Arnav... everyone had their dinner but Anjali had a bad staring session with Arnav who smiled all the way...
*Back to present*
Everyone was once again talking and enjoying the soothing music when Arnav's wheelchair was slowly being pulled away from the crowd... Arnav looked in front of him.. everyone of his family member were there...
NK, Akash, Payal, Anjali, Shaleen, Nani, Mami, Mama, HP, Garima, Buaji.. even Khushi was there.. then who is pulling him out of the crowd... Arnav wanted to turn behind to see but he couldn't move...He was taken back to the poolside...The french doors were closed but Arnav could see everything inside his room...
He was trying to figure out who could it be... when he heard Khushi's voice... Leave me!!!! who are you?? leave my hand.. let me go.. she kept shouting at a person who held her hand tightly... the room was dark as the lights were off... Arnav couldn't see the person... but he could her Khushi shouting... Music downstairs was loud so no one could hear Khushi's voice...
Suddenly someone from Arnav's back said...
"Acho Achoa Saiye...Acho Acho..." Arnav recognized this voice.. he knew who was it...
[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AV69P3WeIv4&feature=channel&list=UL[/YOUTUBE]
It was his business rivalry... just a week before the accident took place... Arnav had made sure this man was announced bankrupt as he tried to spoil AR's image in the market... Arnav was shocked to hear that man once again after one year... that too when he can't even move... Arnav was feeling really helpless...
Saiye... tumne mujhe bankrupt kerdiya.. ab dekho main kaise tumhari dunyia tumhare nazro ke saamne ujarta hu... (Buddy, you made me bankrupt... now see how will I destroy your life infront of your own eyes)...your wife is beautifulll... that final line had boiled each and every drop of Arnav's blood... he still could hear Khushi shouting... He then saw a man tying up Khushi's hand...Khushi is trying her level best to untie herself... Arnav was so restless... he wanted to get up and help khushi... he wanted to kill that man who touched her... but he can't move...
Just then he heard another familiar choice... Arey Mulrajani Sahab...iski biwi to phatak hai phatak... ek baar aayi thi haath mere but yeh majnu ki aulad wahi tha... isne bharta bana diya tha mera.. maar maar ke lal kerdiya tha... Kuch yaad aaya kameene???? (Oh Mulrajani Sir.. his wife is like firecracker...once I manage to get her but this lover beat the hell out of me...Did you recall it Basta*d) that man push Arnav's head forward... Arnav knew who was it...
[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jINTukNgRV4&feature=channel&list=UL[/YOUTUBE]
Lets see how he will save her today...*Evil Laugh*... it was dark so Arnav couldn't see anything clearly... but he saw a figure opening the french door and walking in his room... Khushi came towards the french door... Her hands were tied... there was a cloth in her mouth... she fell on the ground... she was kicking her legs in the air trying to stop the guy from coming closer to her... He was laughing evil...
"Come baby... call your husband to save you.. just like old days.. come honey.. he is useless now.. let me satisfy you... come.. baby...let me touch you taste you..." That man continued with his disgusting words...
Arnav was trying extremely hard.. he was almost dying seeing Khushi in such state... that too in front of his eyes and he couldn't do anything... he tried to rise his hands... he tried to put his feet down.. but in vain... he still didn't give up her tried and kept trying...
That guy had removed the cloth from Khushi's mouth.. He had ripped the left side of Khushi's blouse.. Arnavji!!!!! Khushi shouted... humein bacha lijeye Arnavji... hum marjayenge agar inhone humein haath lagaya toh... humein bacha lijeye...(Arnavji... save me.. I'll die if he touches me...save me!!!) Khushi was welling away.. Arnav wanted to get up that very instant and held Khushi in his arms... he wanted to box the guy will he dies... Arnav tried getting up but his body wasn't helping... Arnav recalled how Khushi almost lost her life as she fell off from the cliff... her laugh, her smile, her mischievousness... everything was playing in front of Arnav... Slowly he shut his eyes... as if looking for someone... Softly he called out for the person he was looking for...
DEVI MAIYA!!! Arnav Singh Raizada.. a man who doesn't believe in GOD had called out for the divine power...
Precap: Khushi crying in the corner of the french door... Everyone was staring at her in shock...Khushi was just crying away... Payal took the blanket from the bed and walked towards Khushi and covered her...
