A new day means new beginnings and fresh starts. If you can let go of the past, freeing yourself of sadness and disappointments, you can embrace a new perspective—a fresh look at the future and all the wonderful possibilities it holds. Same brings the next morning for the Raghuvanshi family. The months of separation from their eldest son and daughter-in-law was over. The fights, the clashes and the sadness was over, moving towards a new start for their lives, having a more strong bond, more love and more faith amongst each other. Urmila lights the diyas of the temple while Manvi placed the puja plate in Siya's hand. The Raghuvanshi bahus were ready for their morning prayer and to start their new life with the blessings of Lord Rama. Siya started singing the morning aarti while the girls stood behind her joining their hands.
Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram
Patit Paavan Sitaram...
Ram heard Siya's voice as he was in his room getting ready after having his bath. He smile at her voice and moves outside the room to check for her. He stood near the railing upstairs watching the girls near the temple.
Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram
Patit Paavan Sitaram...
Lakshman too came out of his room and moves towards Ram to check with the girls. Both of them smile looking at them downstairs. Bharat and Shatrughan looks at each other moving towards Ram and Lakshman. They both looks at their direction and witness Siya singing the aarti while the girls surrounded her doing the prayers.
Ishwar Allah Tero Naam
Sabko Sanmati De Bhagwan...
Ram folded his hands and an unknown proud smile appears on his face watching the girls. Dashrath came near the temple with the support of Sumitra and both of them smile looking at the girls, specially Siya singing after a long time.
Ishwar Allah Tero Naam
Sabko Sanmati De Bhagwan...
Siya continued singing the aarti while Dashrath joined his hands in front of the God, thanking him for this day. Kranti stood behind the girls watching all four of them with an emotional smile. They day she craved for, finally came in her life and she could not ask more happiness than this.
Raghupati Raghav Raja Ram
Patit Paavan Sitaram...
Siya completes her aarti and the girls closed their eyes for a moment to pray the God. She placed the plate at the temple and joins her hands to thank God for this day in her life. They turns around to witness Kranti standing near them with a smile on her face. All four of them moves towards her and bends in front of her together to take her blessings.
KRANTI- hamesha khush raho..
Kranti placed her hand on each one of their head, giving her blessings to them. Ram smile looking at them and started moving downstairs while the boys followed him. Kranti caresses Siya's head lovingly.
KRANTI- Sumitra.. aaj wo din yad agaya, jab Siya ne peheli bar iss ghar me puja ki thi..
Said Kranti looking at Sumitra for which she nods her head in agreement. Siya smile at her while Kranti kissed her forehead showcasing her motherly love.
KRANTI- but.. aaj se jyada khushi shayad uss din bhi nahi hui thi..
Siya bows her head down for a moment while Kranti smile at her. Ram watches them feeling happy. The girls moves towards Dashrath and takes his blessings together.
DASHRATH- God bless you..
Dashrath too caresses their head and smile at them. The girls turns towards Sumitra and takes her blessings too.
SUMITRA- be happy and keep all of us happy with your beautiful smiles..
The girls giggles hearing Sumitra's unique blessings. Their "cool choti maa" was back, after a gap of such a long time. Siya turns towards Dashrath.
SIYA- papa.. morning medicine li.?
Dashrath was about to answer her when Urmila interrupts.
URMILA- I know.. nahi li hogi..
Said Urmila nodding in disbelief while Dashrath pouts at her.
SHRUTI- hmm.. jab tak koi khud papa ko zabardasti medicine na de, wo to khud lene se rahe..
Said Shruti nodding her head in disbelief while everyone laughs looking at them scolding Dashrath.
DASHRATH- it is a part of my plan.. me jaanbujh kar mana karta hu, so that you all be there behind me..
Said Dashrath in a joke while the girls looks at him in shock.
MANVI- papa ka bas chale to inke aas pas twenty four hours sab log rahe..
Dashrath smile at her words while Siya nods her head in disbelief.
SIYA- chaliye papa.. breakfast kar lijiye.. then medicine leni hai.. and after that you've to take forty five minutes of walk..
Dashrath's eyes grew wide in shock hearing her while Sumitra giggles at her reaction. The girls takes him towards the dinning table while everyone followed them, accept Kranti and Ram.
URMILA- we have prepared your timetable papa.. and now you've to strictly follow that everyday..
Said Urmila helping him to settle down on his chair.
SHRUTI- every morning meditation and walk is compulsory. And if you didn't listened to us na, then jiju aapko datenge..
Shruti warned him pointing her finger towards him while Dashrath gulped hearing her. Ram giggles watching his father getting afraid with his name. The boys too settled down at their respective seats while Siya brought the breakfast from the kitchen.
SHATRUGHAN- areh wah.. kya khushboo arahi hai.. kya bana hai aaj.?
Questioned Shatrughan looking at the bowls which Siya and Manvi were keeping on the table.
LAKSHMAN- puch kya rahe ho, directly open the lid and have a look..
Said Lakshman opening the lid of one of the bowl.
LAKSHMAN- puri... Sabji... Sandwiches... Wow.. bhabhi..
Lakshman and Shatrughan high-fived each other while Siya giggles at them.
SHATRUGHAN- hayee aisa lag raha hai, kitne dino bad kuch acha khayenge..
Shruti looks at him in shock while Manvi hits his shoulder.
MANVI- ha.. jaise we were not giving you any food hai na.?
Shatrughan giggles at her anger while Siya started serving them.
SIYA- mat dato use Manvi.. shanti se breakfast karne do..
Siya scolded her while Shatrughan showed his tongue to tease her. Manvi rolls her eyes and started helping Siya to serve them. Kranti smile watching them having some happy moments together.
BHARAT- aaj bhabhi ne itne dino bad breakfast banaya hai. To bhabhi apne hatho se hume khilayengi na..?
Said Bharat looking at Siya with a request for which she smiles at him.
LAKSHMAN- correct.. aur bhabhi ka favourite devar me hu. To sabse pehle mujhe khilayengi.. hai na bhabhi ?
Lakshman teased him while Bharat pouts hearing him. Dashrath and Sumitra laughs looking at them.
SHATRUGHAN- kuch bhi. Me sabse chota hu.. to sabse favourite me hua.. and hence pehele me..
Said Shatrughan holding Siya's one hand. Bharat holds Siya's other hand immediately.
BHARAT- bhabhi ye log aisa kyu keh rahe hai.? These two are your favourite or what.?
Questioned Bharat sounding disappointed while others giggles at him.
SIYA- uffo.. nahi Bharat.. tum tino mere liye favourite ho..
Said Siya making Bharat understand while he gave a look at Lakshman and Shatrughan.
SIYA- ab mere teen hath to hai nahi, but I will feed you all one by one..
Said Siya taking a bite near Bharat first, then Lakshman and then Shatrughan. Everyone laughs looking at them while Kranti gets tears of happiness. Ram looks at her and smile at her emotions. He wraps his hand around her shoulder to gain her attention.
KRANTI- ab mujhe pata chala, what I was missing..
Said Kranti looking at Ram. He kissed her side of head lovingly while Kranti wipes her tears. Both of them continued looking at the dinning at everyone having happy moments with each other. Siya continued feeding the boys while they teases the girls who complaints to Sumitra. Siya asked them to not tease while the boys continued teasing their wives saying that Siya loves them more. Ram smile looking at them and sighed in relief...

Ram was with Dashrath, making him to take a walk in the garden area. He holds Dashrath's right hand while walking from one end of the garden to the other.
DASHRATH- bas Ram.. hogaya..
Said Dashrath as they moves towards the bench. Ram gave a look at his father.
RAM- papa.. bas ten minutes hue hai. And you have to walk for atleast thirty minutes.
Said Ram looking at his phone to check the time. Dashrath rolls his eyes in disbelief.
DASHRATH- yes.. but you should take slow steps. Today is first day that's why only ten minutes.. then tomorrow fifteen minutes and after that twenty.. and so on..
Ram chuckled at his father's excuses to not have a walk.
RAM- acha..? We will do one thing. We will take a break of five minutes. But after that we have to continue.
Said Ram raising his one eyebrow while Dashrath sighed at him as he didn't listened his request.
DASHRATH- theek hai bhai..
Ram takes him towards the bench to make Dashrath to have some rest. He settled down beside Dashrath giving him the water bottle.
DASHRATH- thank you.
Dashrath takes a sip of the water and placed the bottle on the table. He looks at Ram who was already looking at him.
DASHRATH- pata hai.? Aaj jaise tum mujhe walk karwa rahe ho na, waise hi me tumhe karwata tha.. jab tum chalna sikh rahe the..
Ram smile listening to his words while Dashrath remember the days of Ram's childhood.
DASHRATH- aur jaise me nakhre kar raha hu, same you used to do.. chalna to tumhe pasand hi nahi tha..
Ram laughs hearing his childhood memories from his father.
RAM- but still.. aap ne mera hath pakad kar, mujhe chalna to sikhaya hi na..
Dashrath smile at his words and nods in agreement.
RAM- to waise hi.. aap ke charo bete aap ka hath pakad kar, aapko roz walk karayenge..
Dashrath keeps his hand on Ram's shoulder.
DASHRATH- sach Ram.. bohot khushi horahi hai tum teeno ko wapis ghar par dekh kar. Puri family ko ek sath dekh kar.
Dashrath gets emotional while Ram shook his head in no.
RAM- no papa.. emotional hona is not allowed now..
He wipes Dashrath's light tears while Dashrath smile at him.
RAM- you just take care of your health, your diet.. aap ki khushiyon ka khayal rakhne ki responsibility... Aapke baccho ki..
Dashrath nods his head hearing Ram's words. Their conversation got interrupted by Ram's cellphone which started ringing.
RAM- hello papa..
Ram received the call as it was from Janak.
JANAK- hello Ram.. are you busy somewhere.?
Ram looks at Dashrath who was looking at him talking with Janak.
RAM- nahi papa. Bas papa ko walk karwa raha tha..
Said Ram for which Janak feels happy. He was relieved hearing Ram's happy voice.
JANAK- chalo acha hua. I had called to ask about Dashrath Ji..
Ram smile at his words and holds Dashrath's hand.
RAM- he is absolutely fine.. sabko apni seva me laga diya hai, he must be feeling happy.
Janak laughs hearing his words while Dashrath pouts at him.
JANAK- acha Ram.. hum sab soch rahe the ki ek bar waha akar Dashrath Ji se mil le..
Said Janak telling him about their plan to visit Mumbai to meet Dashrath. Ram nods at his words.
RAM- ofcourse papa you are welcome..
JANAK- ok.. filhal to we have not decided.. but most probably weekend ka plan banate hai..
Said Janak checking for the calendar in his iPad. Ram smile looking at Dashrath.
RAM- ok papa. I will inform everyone..

Ram disconnect the call and turns to look at Dashrath.
RAM- wo.. papa keh rahe the that they want to visit here to meet you..
Dashrath smile hearing him and nods his head in yes.
DASHRATH- Ram.. Janak ji ke.. bohot ehsan hai hum par..
Ram smile at his words. He nods his head getting agreed with Dashrath's words.
DASHRATH- iss difficult time me, he has been always there with all of us..
Ram bows his head down as he remembers Janak's care towards him. Dashrath placed his hand on Ram's shoulder to gain his attention.
DASHRATH- aur sabse bada ehsan unka to ye hai, that his four daughters are the bahus of our family..
Said Dashrath thinking about the Rajrishi girls and their upbringings.
DASHRATH- we are very lucky, to have those four and the Rajrishi family in our life..
Ram nods at him agreeing to his praises for the Rajrishis. He kept on smiling thinking about Siya and her sisters who has been always standing with their husbands in this tough time...

The girls were in the kitchen preparing their lunch while talking and laughing amongst themselves. Siya was busy preparing the lunch with Manvi while Urmila was sitting with Shruti at the corner table chopping the vegetables. While Shruti was writing down something on the notepad.
URMILA- aur uske bad pata hai dii.? Shatrughan ne hero style me file wardrobe me se dhundhi and he handed it to me..
Siya laughs hearing Urmila who was telling her the incident happened between Shruti and Shatrughan few days back.
URMILA- uske bad usne Shruti se kaha- tum apna gussa shant kar lo..
Urmila acted like Shatrughan while the girls burst into laughter. Shruti pouts at Urmila and folded her hands.
MANVI- sachme.. hamara Shatrughan na ek number ka cartoon hai..
The girls again started laughing while this time Shruti too giggle hearing the word "cartoon" for her husband. Urmila looks at Shruti getting confused.
URMILA- by the way Shruti.. how did you said sorry to Shatrughan.?
Questioned Urmila giving a wink at Manvi while Shruti's face turned red remembering the night.
SHRUTI- dii.. list me aur kya add karna hai.?
Shruti questioned Siya, changing the topic while Manvi and Urmila laughs at her.
MANVI- see.. how she is changing the topic..
Siya lightly hits Manvi's hand while Shruti nods in disbelief.
SHRUTI- I am asking something very serious. What more we have to add in Papa's diet chart.?
Asked Shruti showing them the notepad. The girls controls their laugh and looks at Siya who now turns towards Shruti thinking about Dashrath's diet.
SIYA- doctor uncle has suggested to add soup, juice and salads in everyday's meal. Baki jo normal diet hai wohi..
Said Siya for which Shruti nods at her in agreement.
URMILA- acha this list should be known to maa as well as choti maa too..
Suggested Urmila for which others nods at her in agreement. Manvi thinks something and looks at the girls.
MANVI- waise acha hua jo papa unke room me wapis shift hogaye..
Siya looks at her in confusion while Urmila and Shruti nods at her.
MANVI- it will be easy for maa to take his care.
Said Manvi with a smile. Siya looks at each one of them and then at Manvi.
SIYA- wapis room me shift hogaye matlab.?
The girls looks at Siya and then at each other.
SHRUTI- oh ya.. dii don't know about that right.?
Siya lightly shook her head while Urmila continued telling her.
URMILA- papa guest room me shift hogaye the..
Siya's eyes grew wide in a shock while Urmila continued.
URMILA- even aaj, aap logo ke jane ke bad se peheli bar, he had his breakfast with all at the dinning table.. warna to.. bas room me hi rehte the..
Siya looks shocked with Dashrath's behaviour after they left the house. Manvi keeps her hand on Siya's shoulder.
MANVI- papa to maa se itna naraz the, that he didn't wanted to face her for once..
Siya closed her eyes feeling bad for Kranti. She knows about everyone's odd behaviour with Kranti but she didn't knew that it was extended till this end. She opens her eyes and looks at the girls.
SIYA- and what about you three.?
The girls looks at her in confusion.
SIYA- you all were angry with maa too..?
The girls looks at each other saying nothing while Siya understood their expressions. Manvi looks at Siya and continued.
MANVI- aisa kon tha jo maa se naraz nahi tha.? Hum sab bhi the.. but the day when choti maa told us that maa is thinking to call you and jiju back, uss din hamari sari narazgi dur hogayi..
Said Manvi with a smile. Urmila and Shruti too nods in agreement while Siya smile at them.
SIYA- narazgi to dur hogayi.. but what about apologies.?
Asked Siya looking at each one of them while they didn't said anything looking down.
SIYA- your behaviour towards maa is obvious, I am not denying that. But gusse me aur narazgi me jaisa tum logo ne maa ke sath behave kiya hai, for that you should apologise to her.
Siya tried to explain them while the girls nods at her agreeing to her words.
URMILA- you are right dii. Hume bhi aisa laga tha, that we should apologise to maa.. par.. darr bhi lag raha tha..
Siya smile at her and nods her head lightly.
SIYA- apni hi maa se kaisa darr.?
The girls again looks at Siya while she continued suggesting them.
SIYA- maa is not angry with you all, that I know. But it's your responsibility to apologise to her. Samjhe.?
The girls nods at her in agreement. Siya smile looking at them. They continued their respective work while Siya sighed thinking about Kranti...

The boys were in the living room, discussing about their on going work of office.
BHARAT- aur bhaiya.. this is of Hyderabad project.. almost we have completed its second phase..
Said Bharat forwarding the file towards Ram. He started checking the file while Lakshman too checks its points in his laptop.
RAM- well done Bharat.. though this project was lagging behind, but you both have managed to handle it appropriately.
Bharat and Shatrughan smile hearing Ram's praises for them. The girls came near them and settled down beside their partners.
RAM- Lakshman.. you also study with the points..
LAKSHMAN- ji bhaiya..
Ram handed the file at Lakshman.
URMILA- uffo.. aap log to jab dekho files and laptop lekar beth jate hai..
Said Urmila getting irritated with their work. Lakshman wraps his hand on her shoulder.
LAKSHMAN- ab kya kare? Hume aapke jaisa sukh kaha.. jaha ghar bethe kam karne milta hai..
The boys giggles at their conversation.
SIYA- how much time you all will take.? Because lunch is ready..
Siya asked to the boys while Ram checks for the time. He was about to answer her when they heard Kranti's voice.
KRANTI- Siya..
They looks at the direction of Kranti who was standing near them calling Siya.
SIYA- ji maa.?
Siya gets up from her place and Kranti moves towards her.
KRANTI- beta wo.. doctor has asked to measure the post meal reports of your papa..
Kranti started telling her about doctor's call regarding Dashrath.
KRANTI- I am not used to that apparatus. Tum ek bar dekh lo agar tumse ho paye to..
Siya smile at her nodding in yes. The girls looks at each other indicating something amongst themselves.
SIYA- sure maa. I will check..
Kranti smile at her. She looks at everyone who were busy in their own. She sighed and turns to leave from there.
MANVI- maa..
Kranti stops in between as she heard Manvi calling her. Manvi, Urmila and Shruti moves towards Kranti while she looks at them in confusion.
MANVI- maa.. we wanted to have a talk with you..
Said Manvi in a low voice while Siya smile at them lightly.
KRANTI- ha beta.. kaho..
Manvi looks at Urmila who takes a step towards Kranti. She hesitate to touch Kranti but gains confidence to place her hand on her hand. Kranti looks at her getting amused.
URMILA- we want to.. we.. we are sorry maa..
Urmila stammered to speak but finally the words came out of her mouth. Kranti and the boys gets amused hearing the girl's apologies.
SHRUTI- inn dino.. humne aap se jaise bhi behave kiya hai.. jo bhi aapko bhala bura kaha hai.. we apologise for that..
Kranti feels surprised with their sudden apologies. Siya smile at her sisters and then looks at Kranti to check with her reaction. The boys bows their head down while Ram observed them.
MANVI- hum aap se naraz, aap par hamara haq samajhkar hue the. Aur baccho ko to haq ho sakta hai na apni maa se naraz hone ka..?
Questioned Manvi looking at Kranti while she gets light tears in her eyes. Ram kept on looking at the boys who didn't showed any expressions with their apologies.
URMILA- please forgive us maa.. anjane me humne aap ka dil dukhaya hai.. we feel ashamed for that..
Kranti shook her head in no. She takes the girls hands in her hand and smile at them.
KRANTI- you all have not at all hurt me.. galati meri thi.. tum sab ne hamesha mujhe meri galati sudharne ko advise kiya hai..
The girls bows their head down while Kranti wipes her tears.
KRANTI- and I know.. that you all love me. Usi din se jab tum logo ne wo.. bhang wala incident kiya tha..
Said Kranti teasing them while they smile getting embarrassed. Ram too smile looking at them.
KRANTI- ab chahe hitler hu, mogambo hu, gabbar hu ya ravan hu.. jaisi bhi hu, yahi ek option available hai tum logo ke pas..
Kranti tried to lighten their mood while the three of them laughed at her. Siya too smile controlling her tears. Kranti looks at Siya and cups her face with her one hand, gaining her attention.
KRANTI- I am very lucky to have you four as my bahus..
Said Kranti with a genuine tone smiling at all four of them. The girls wraps their arms around Kranti in a group hug while Kranti felt relieved as they have forgiven her. Ram smile at them and then turns to face the boys who were not looking at them, continuously bowing their head down...
