Everyone starts eating after them. Bidaai was in the morning. The guests and relatives were resting so that they can travel back to mahisha. Shambhavi in her room was removing her jewellery and thinking about the wedding. She looks herself in the mirror. She gently holds her mangalsutra and blushes. She looks at her forehead and the sindoor which was adding more charm in her beauty. She goes in the balcony and looks at that close window from which they used to see each other. She turns around to go back in her room when suddenly the window opens. Shambhavi becomes surprised and happy to see rudra looking at her. She was confused as to how he reached there. They both remain silent for a moment and were just looking at each other. Rudra in sign language said she is looking beautiful. Shambhavi smiles and mouthed a thankyou. He blew a kiss towards her and she takes it. He asked her to go and sleep. They said I love you to each other in sign language and went to sleep.

After sometime rudra saw shambhavi coming out with her parents. He eyes were red and streaming. He too was feeling bad. When they arrive near the palki shambhavi burst into tears and hugs padmavati. Padmavati too cries and hugs her back. She consoles her. She breaks the hug and wipes her tears. She says
Padmavati: you are going to enter in a a new life. You always made us proud and I know you'll make us proud in future too.

Rudra: maa, shambhavi is my responsibility now. I'll make sure that she never cries after today. I'll always keep her happy. We all love her and we'll try our best to give you the same love which you and pitaji gave her.
Padmavati becomes relieved hearing rudra's consolable words.

In a beautifully decorated room. Rudra and shambhavi along with some other relatives were sitting. The ring game was about to begin. Rudra was dying to see shambhavi's facw which was covered with ghunghat. He was only able to see her lips. Sameeksha comes with a plate filled with flowers and on the top it resides a ring. She takes the ring and shows them both. She then moves her hand with the ring in circles and leaves it into the bowl filled with milk and rose petals. She says
Sameeksha: now you two have to find the ring from this bowl and whosever will find it first will be the winner.

Rudra: yes she must be very tired.
Rudra's heart was jumping with joy. All the ladies including dai maa.sameeksha and radha maa were getting amused seeing him getting excited for no reason. Soon his excitement will be gone. As they reach near rudra's room he stopped and opens the door but daimaa and radha maa pass by his room. Rudra becomes surprised and clears his throat.
Rudra: ummm dai maa...my room is here..
Dai maa: yes I know you should go and take rest.
Rudra: and?
Dai maa: and what?
Rudra: isn't she supposed to sleep in my room?
Dai maa: no not yet. You two can't sleep together until all the rituals are completed.
Rudra: what? Why? I thought all the rituals are completed.

Rudra: what are you smiling for?
He tried to go near her but dai maa stopped her Before rudra can understand anything dai maa left with shambhavi leaving rudra wide mouth open.
Birju: don't worry I will give you company tonight.

All the ladies left for their rooms except sameeksha and dai maa. Rudra was watching them hiding behind the pillar. Dai maa notice him and called him. He goes near them
Dai maa: what now?
Rudra: I just want to talk to her for two minutes..please

Dai maa: alright but only two minutes and you are not allowed to go inside. Stay outside.
rudra: alright.
Dai maa and sameeksha left from there leaving them alone.
Rudra: no one is here now and I am dying to see your face. Plz
Shambhavi slowly lifts up her ghunghat. Rudra gets mesmerised again. Shambhavi giggles and says.
Shambhavi: you have only two minutes.
Rudra: umm yes I just wanted to ask. Did you know about this ritual before?
Shambhavi: yes..
Rudra: you knew and you didn't even tell me.
Shambhavi looks at him with fake sympathy. She says

Shambhavi: ummm till then I won't stop teasing you. I love to tease you.
Rudra: okk but when I'll start teasing then you'll regret and I am sure you'll love my teasing more.
Shambhavi becomes beet red with blush. Rudra goes near her and without touching her he whisper in her ear.
Rudra: nobody is here. Why don't we just...nobody will know what happened..
Shambhavi slowly steps closer to him. Her lips were only centimeters away from his. she suddenly pushed him away.
Shambhavi: good night your two minutes are over and you can't touch me till all the rituals are finished. Don't try to be romantic when you don't know how to be.
Rudra: what? I am not romantic.
Shambhavi grins and he frowns. The challenge in her eyes was evident and rudra was upto the challenge. Shambhavi slowly steps closer to him. her lips only centimeters away from his.
Rudra: wait let me tell you how romantic I am.
He tries to go inside but she closes the door. Birju comes there and sarcastically says
Birju: my dear king.its time for you to sleep. She is not going anywhere. You can meet her later.
Rudra: did you hear what she said?
Birju: I don't want to hear anything lets go from here otherwise dai maa will scold me along with you.
He dragged rudra from there. Shambhavi slowly opens the door and looks at him with a smirk. he turns around and looks at her.he says
Rudra: I'll make you pay for that.
