CHAPTER 65
ALL THE NAMES & PLACES ARE FICTITIOUS(if any resemblance to persons & places is purely coincidental). Any royal titles, architectural terms,IT terms & programs, office hierachy, wedding rituals, etc. are from my imagination hence THEY ARE NOT TRUE. PLEASE DON'T BASH ME !!!!!
Next Morning 5a.m.
Geet woke up with continous ringing of Maan's alarm for his regular daily workout. Maan was in deep sleep as Maan had kept Geet awake whole of last night. The couple had only slept at 3am. Geet got up and set the alarm for an hour later and went back to bed. But unfortunately could not sleep with lot of tossing & turning. She finally woke up, freshened up, took bath and wore a red silk saree. As it was still too early, she went to a small "Mandir" in Rampur Palace's premises and cleaned it with help of Nakul and other servants. Then she made it functionable for pooja. After everything was in place, she asked Nakul to get a panditji for the temple. While Nakul was gone, she started reciting bhajan in a melodious voice bringing first Damyanti Bua and Dulari to the mandir, followed by Dadimaa, Rajveer, Maan, Riddhima and Meera. Vicky was nowhere in sight as usual! Geet requested, "Dadimma, hummei iss mandir ki pooja-archana ke liye ek Panditji ko bulana chahiye!" Everyone agreed with it. After pooja, Geet along with Nakul's help made a heavy Indian breakfast of poori aloo as it was Damyanti Bua's favourite. Which even Maan ate without any issues, as today Maan was extremely happy with Damyanti Bua. So when she spoke about her departure, Maan requested her to stay for few more days, surprising everyone! Dadimaa had told Damyanti Bua about Geet's life story last night making the old lady feel compassion for Geet. She also felt that life had not been fair to this couple and lifted her rules and let them spend the night together. However, Damyanti Bua declined to stay for few more days, and left for Rishikesh where she use to live after the death of her husband. Damyanti Bua's orthodox, conservative and narrow minded in-laws did not want to keep a childless widow in their home!
It was a week since Damyanti Bua left, the family was on breakfast table when Rampur's Rajpurohit followed by Chote Rajpurohit(Rajgarh) arrived.
"Rajmata pranam! Hum Rajgarh ke Maharaj Armaan aur Rajkumari Riddhima ke vivaah ka mahurath; aur Rajkunwar Vikram Singh aur Sukumari Meera ke vivaah ka mahurath nikal ke laaye hain!" Rampur's Rajpurohit informed. (Queen Mother salutations! We have calculated the most auspicious timings & dates for marrige of King of Rajgarh Armaan with Princess Riddhima and Prince Vikram Singh with Miss Meera.)
"Aaj se ek mahaa upranth do din ati shubh mahurath hai! Aap chahe to yeh dono vivaah uss samay kar sakte hain." Chote Rajpurohit(Rajgarh) confirmed. (A month from today, there are two auspicious days when these weddings can take place!)
Dadimaa, Rajveer and all adults present decided that after a month, first mahurath will be Riddhima's wedding and second Vicky's. Suddenly Vicky saw Geet sitting quitely and asked, "Bhabhi aap kiss soch vichaar mei hain? Aap itni chup kyun hain?" (Bhabhi what are you contemplating? Why are you so quite?)
"Vicky Bhaiya, hum yeh soch vichaar kar rahe hain ki ek din mei hum Rajgarh aur Rampur/Delhi mein kaise honge?" (Vicky I'm confused, how will I be in Rajgarh and Rampur/Delhi in a single day?)
"Geetanjali beta, aap chinta matt kariye. Shaadi ke kuch din pahele aap Rajgarh chali jaayega aur ek bahen ke saare kaarye poorn kijeyga. Phir baraat ke saath Rampur/Delhi aa ke Riddhima ki bhabhi ke saare kartavya poorn kijega! Riddhima ki vidaai ke samay phir aap, Maan aur bacche Rajgarh kuch din ke liye chale jaayega!"
(Geetanjali don't worry! Few days before the wedding you go to Rajgarh and fulfill all duties of a sister. Then come to Rampur/Delhi with wedding procession and fulfill all duties of Riddhima's sister-in-law. Then you, Maan & children leave with wedding procession for Rajgarh for few days.)
"Shaadi se hummei yaad aaya ki Maan tumne Geetanjali se mandap mei shaadi kaise ki? Ek mandap mei Devraj aur ek mandap mei Sameera ko hona chahiye tha!" Rajveer asked his lingering doubt of many days. (Talking about marriage, I want to know how Maan and Geetanjali got married? In one mandap(altar) should have been Devraj and in one Sameera.)
"Dad, Maan bhai had sent Adi bhai, Meera and me ahead to see nothing goes wrong. Once we came to know preponement of wedding, Adi bhai immediately sent a SOS to Maan bhai. He arrived as soon as possible that night."
"Although you had not invited Devraj and Sameera, but they gate-crashed. I was already in Rajgarh by then. Adi, Meera and Vicky already knew where their rooms were. Just before Devraj and Sameera were called for pheras we locked them from outside in their rooms. I took Devraj's place next to Geetanjali. Later with Geetanjali fainting no one remembered the exchanged 'dulha' and missing 'dulhan'. Diwanji and Senapatiji sent them home saying that Geetanjali and I have been re-married, much to their disappointment!"
Just then triplets came excited in the drawing room saying, "Ma-sa, Ma-sa, Kaka(Nakul) kahe rahe hain ki Bade Mama-sa ki bua se aur Chachu ki Meera Mausi se vivaah hoga. Kya yeh satya hai?"(Mom, Nakul said that Uncle Armaan is marrying Aunt Riddhima and Uncle Vicky is marrying Aunt Meera. Is it true?)
"Haan beta! Aap teeno khush hain na?" Dadimaa replied (Yes my children. Are you three happy?)
"Badi Dadi-sa hum bahut prasann hain. Hum gulabi lehanga choli pahenge bahut saare gote ke saath." Rini demanded (Yes very happy. I want to wear pink lehanga choli with lot of shimmer.)
"Hum Chachu ki tehare sherwani pahenge." Veer stated his dress choice. (I want to wear sherwani like Uncle Vicky.)
"Aur hum 3piece suit, Papa ki tehare." (I want to wear 3piece suit like Dad)
"Maan iss mei koi do rai nahi ki Prithvi aap ka beta hai. Aap ki tehare yeh shaadi mei bhi business suit pahena chahta hai!" (Maan there is no doubt that he is your son. Like you he also wants to wear a business suit for a wedding!)
Making everyone present have a good laugh, ignoring Maan and junior Maan, Prithvi's glares!
