Smita,😊

Here is the interpretation to Section 1 of Part 23.

When Anamika led Khushi out, she looked resplendent in the midnight blue sari with a heavy gold border and embroidered with golden threads having sprays of crystals at intervals, with its rich red blouse. Both the midnight blue and the rich red highlighted her satiny, fair skin, making her look like a nymph who had graced the earth. She had a perfectly styled coiffure that had a twisted elegant chignon, with soft tendrils curling to caress her face. The accessories not only matched her outfit but also enhanced the effect. Overall, the effect she produced was one of sublime beauty. Arnav took one look at her and stopped short. His eyes widened and his lips parted with wonder, making him think, where this ravishing beauty been hiding all this time. He appreciated the gorgeous beauty in front of him.

Anamika took one look at ASR and turned aside to hide her smile. Her eyes met Ganesh's bright eyes that were twinkling with laughter hidden behind his specs. Anamika had to struggle hard not to let herself cachinnate.

Arnav found it extremely difficult to put it in words, the feelings that stirred in him looking at the vision of beauty. He was rendered silent unable to express his appreciation on her changed appearance. Anamika and Ganesh had their eyes and ears trained on Khushi to see her reaction to ASR's silence. They wondered whether she would sulk? Titivate? Or show her unhappiness for not vocalizing his feelings? But Khushi was not at all worked up by his silence. Making her way to him hurriedly she exclaimed, in a soft voice to her Arnavji that, he looks good, just like a Prince Charming of her dreams! Anamika and Ganesh were all ears to hear even the mild whispers. Arnav not used to being complimented with a tinge of blush said Khushi, in pleasure. Khushi told him that if Buaji had been present she would have applied a spot of her Kajal, right behind his ear to ward off the evil eye. The tinge of blush, enhanced itself into a full bloom blush on Arnav. Approving his appearance, Khushi told him that he looked so handsome, exactly like Salman Khanji! Anamika tried hard to stop herself from laughing her head off and it stifled into a cough. Ganesh who was utterly amused by Khushi's remark turned away from them lest he breaks up into laughter then and there.

Anamika finally asked ASR addressing him as Salman Khanji,how did he like his white sherwani? Arnav with a slight smile acknowledged that it was very good. Anamika nodded and with laughter still lurking in her eyes, she asked Khushi's sari? His answer was, out of this world.Khushi was always beautiful but then, that day she looks..., he just could not put his feelings into words and just shook his head that meant she looked unbelievably beautiful! What the! ASR speechless! That's quite an achievement for the present was Anamika's reaction without being her usual stern self, but with a smile lingering.

Finding that Khushi had moved slightly away, while engrossed in conversation with Gaurav, Anamika turned towards ASR with a sober expression and said brusquely that, she was thinking of 5 pics of them in the best magazine one per month. But on re-evaluation 5 together would serve the purpose better. Arnav hooked up an eyebrow in question. She explained to him that Lisa would soon be coming from Dubai. Once back she would be active in slandering Khushi. When aspersions are thrown, there should not be anyone giving credence to her words. The fact that he and Khushi are a couple ready for marriage, should be entrenched in the mind of all before she or anyone else throws a spanner in the works. While Anamika said this looking directly at him, Arnav with a face, as cold as an icicle and muscles, taunt with the anger that he felt, told her that he was simply lying in wait for her to return. He would deal with her and he would see to that she never gets any work ever in India again. Anamika told him that she was sure that he would see to that. All the dresses were ready and Ganesh was there and let it get done at the earliest. Arnav's thoughts too were in concurrence with hers and nodded.

Anamika stood watching the master photographer at work. She observed the way Ganesh positioned Arnav and Khushi, to get the maximum effect in the pictures. His assistants, Sana and Vinni were attuned to his pace and demand for perfection. The background was set taking his elaborate detailing into consideration, and Anamika marveled at the romantic soul that dwelt within his huge body. She watched him, adjust the lighting, arrange the reflectors, position the camera to get the maximum effect. It always made her wonder at his dedication and she knew that he was a genius. Gaurav whispered his admiration for Ganesh with his mother saying that he is one extra special. Anamika, looked at her son and nodded knowing fully well that, there was no better man around than Ganesh, whom he could idolize.

Khushi smiled and said something softly to ASR and Anamika saw that it made him visibly change into Arnav, right in front of her eyes. She realized the power of Love! It had the power to turn the hot headed abhorrent ASR into a gentle, lovable Arnav. She observed this while biting into a juicy ber that Khushi had given her.

Looking at the pictures in the Glossy magazine, Buaji was wide eyed. In her orotund voice, she exclaimed and asked Anamika, Was that their Titaliyaa? What magic potion had she used to make her Parameshwari look so beautiful Bitiyaa? Anamika with a relaxed smile sitting in her chair at Buaji's house at Laxmi Nagar said, nothing. Astonished Amma and Babuji were looking at the five pictures with wonder and enchantment. Garima told Buaji that, Arnav Bitwa looked handsome, Jiji! The pagdi suits him! Buaji bobbed her head and declared in the name of Nandkisore that, Arnav Babua is very handsome with or without pagdi and he is majestic even without finery. Anjali who was sitting beside her, whispered in awe, to look at that particular picture! She told Anamika that there was no doubt that she was absolutely one of a kind. Her saris, sherwanis, kurtas, lehengas were gorgeous and out of the world creations. Payal and Nani concurred with her. Nani told her that Anamikaji, your creations are extremely good and just perfect. Mami who was sitting quietly, stunned by what she saw in the slick magazine, remarked to her mother-in-law, why will it not be perfect? After all, he is her nephew and signed it off with her trade mark, Hello Hi Bye Bye! Nani sighed with relief and told that they look so happy together and Mami nodded beaming a wide smile.

Anjali looked at the first picture under the title, Anamika's. Khushi was in her midnight blue sari and red blouse. Arnav was in pristine white sherwani that heightened his dark looks and lean, rippling muscular body.

It looked as though they were standing on a terrace lit by the moonbeams by an arbor of vines with flowers and foliages, that seemed to shower them with its sweet fragrance. Against the dark background, Arnav's sherwani took on the hue of mother of pearls, iridescent white reflecting the lights of the moonbeams. Khushi stood leaning against him with her back touching. His sherwani highlighted her sari and lent a splendor to her saree and radiance to her silky fair skin. With her immaculately coiffure in a smooth coil, her eyes highlighted by the professional makeup, making it look dark with flecks of gold, a hint of shyness displayed in them, her slender arms and the willowy perfect curves were highlighted by Anamika's clothes.Arnav's head was bent towards her which gave out a feeling of protecting his love. With the play of light and shade, his face was was highlighted at an angle, that brought out a sharp contrast. His seductive eyes, the sharp nose, the stubborn jut of his chin and the enticing line of his lips, made him look like Adonis, struck by the arrows of sweet temptation shot by the cupid. His look could tempt any girl, and it looked as though he had whispered something naughty into his beloved's ears and savouring her blushes. His sweetheart, Khushi looked enchanted by him, mesmerized by the web of love woven by him.

Anjali who along with the rest examined the picture and asked Anamika, how was it possible to capture this photo that showed their feelings so well and how could a picture reveal so much. Anamika with a smile said that a picture taken by the top notch photographer, Ganesh Vidhyarthi, can speak or hide the truth. Payal shaking her head in appreciation exclaimed, her clothes! Anamika sipping her ginger tea told her, clothes were only as good as the people wearing them. Anjali turned the leaf over to look at the next photograph.

This update is to be titled as APPRECIATION.

When Anamika led Khushi dressed in her creation of midnight blue sari with a contrasting red blouse and matching accessories, she was a vision of beauty making Arnav stop short. He appreciated her beauty. Though he knew she was beautiful, he never thought she could look as glamorous as she was looking now. He felt his heart missing a beat before resuming it with enhanced force. Though he had felt that she was beautiful, he was attracted to her inner self more. But now looking at her in her glamorous best in Anamika's creation he knew he possessed the heart of a beauty unsurpassed and felt his heart swell with pride. He was glad that a person who was beautiful inside out had graced his life. Though one not used to talk much other than cutting remarks, he was rendered speechless! Even his favourite epithets, had failed him! What the! Unbelievable! His silent appreciation was keenly observed by Anamika and Ganesh.

"Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough"

~ Oprah Winfrey

Both Anamika and Ganesh, watched Khushi closely to see her reaction to Arnav and found that Khushi being Khushi was a bundle of unexpected reactions. She was not at all bothered by Arnav's silence. She understood him very well and reciprocated his silent appreciation with her verbal one. She was very vocal in her admiration, and without being self- conscious, she expressed that she found him to be like her dream man, the Prince Charming of the fairy tales and also expressed that he was handsome like her Salman Khanji with a gusto, making Arnav blush and Anamika and Ganesh stifle their laughter.

"There is an innocence in admiration: it occurs in one who has not yet realized that they might be admired"

~ Friedrich Nietzsche

Realizing Arnav's predicament, Anamika with her probing questions made him give his thoughts on his perception to be heard by Khushi. With her creation, Anamika had made Arnav speechless and that knowledge itself was an appreciation to her.

"The ancestor of every action is a thought"

~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Her plan to launch Khushi and him as models for this set of creation of hers, in order to counter Lisa's offensive barrages, by strategy and setting their defense in motion, even before the first salvo is shot, makes him hold her high in his esteem. His answer that, he would not let Lisa get away with her misdeeds, gains recognition as well as approval from Anamika.

Ganesh, appreciating the pair, Arnav and Khushi gets them to pose to his satisfaction with the play of light and shade giving the whole shoot a feeling of surrealistic. His efforts are deeply appreciated by both Gaurav as well as Anamika who see his work in progress from the sidelines.

"Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well"

~ Voltaire

Anamika appreciates Arnav's sensitivity towards Khushi and realizes the power of Khushi's love. ASR who was known for his ruthlessness, was a putty in Khushi's hand and he was gentleness personified when with Khushi. This side of Arnav is to her liking and knows that he would cherish his lady love all through his life.

Seeing this Arnav and Khushi, who are so attuned to each other, in the eyes of Anamika, the value of their friendship gets appreciated.

"One grateful thought is a ray of sunshine. A hundred such thoughts paint a sunrise. A thousand will rival the glaring sky at noonday - for gratitude is light against the darkness"

~ Richelle E. Goodrich

The entire family, Guptas and Raizadas, appreciate Anamika's and Ganesh's work when they get hold of a copy of the gloss magazine. Anamika gives credit to Ganesh's top notch work for making it appear in the magazine as a romantic creation and when her creations gain appreciation, she gives the credit to ASR and Khushi for carrying the clothes she designed, with statuesque magnificence.

"Nature didn't need an operation to be beautiful. It just was"

~ Scott Westerfeld, The Uglies Trilogy

This is also an appreciation of human bonding with nothing but just friendship in mind. Anamika recognizes the value of the simple people Guptas, along with the bonding they have with the Raizadas. Anamika a recluse has started to open-up and has no hesitation to enter the simple abode of Guptas. The knowledge that she is accepted by them, both Raizadas and Guptas just as one of their own, has made her relax with them. She appreciates their acceptance of her as she is, warts and all.

"Gratitude is the real treasure God wants us to find, because it isn't the pot of gold but the rainbow that colors our world"

~ Richelle E. Goodrich

That's why it is APPRECIATION.

That's it from me. Hope you enjoy it.
