Chapter 26

Dushyant is in his room in deep thought when there's a knock on his door. He opens the door and is surprised to find Talli standing there.

Talli: "Dushyantji main do din baad waapis jaa rahi hoon. jaane se pehle main aap se kuch baat karna chahthi thi.kya abhi baat ho sakti hai?"

Dushyant is confused but he composes himself and replies "ji zaroor.aap andar aayiye". Talli comes in and Dushyant continues "waise main bhi aap se baat karna chahtha tha".

Talli looks at him questioningly and Dushyant replies "woh us din maine aapki aur Sudha bhabhi ki baatein sun li thi". Talli looks flustered and embarrassed and so Dushyant quickly says "nahi Talliji aap ghabraayiye math.mujhe bilkul bura nahi laga.maafi tho mujhe maangni chahiye apne rukhe bartaav ke liye aur aap ne bilkul sahi kaha tha us din main apne ateet mein is kadar ulajh ke reh gaya hoon ki mujhe apne yaa apne parivaar ke takleef dhikaayi hi nahi dethi.main bahut selfish ho gaya tha.aap ki baaton ne aur Sudha bhabhi ke dard ne mujhe yeh ehsaas dilaaya ki is tarah parivaar ke beech rehkar bhi akele zindagi guzaarna kitna galat hai.isse na sirf main apne aap ko dukhi kar raha hoon balki apne parivaar waalon ko bhi takleef pahuncha raha hoon".

Taali feels very happy hearing this and says "bas main aap se yehi kehne aayi thi lekin ab tho uski koi zaroorat hi nahi".

Dushyant smiles back but quickly becomes serious and says "maine Raman bha se baat ki thi….lekin woh meri baat sunne ko tayyar hi nahi.jo kuch bhi Sudha bhabhi ne kaha woh sach hai.Raman bha kisi aur aurat ke saath……..maine bahut samjhaane ki koshish ki sacha pyaar naseeb waalon ko hi milta hai aur Sudha bhabhi unse sacha pyaar karti hain.par unka mann shaayad kabhi Sudha bhabhi se judaa hi nahi tha.main apne aap ko kasoorwaar manta hoon.mujhe pehle hi patha laga lena chahiye tha tab shaayad Raman bha ko sahi raaste par lane mein kaamiyaab ho sakta tha.par ab bahut der ho gayi hai……."

Talli goes near Dushyant and comforts him "isme aap ki galti kaise hui?hum mein se kisi ko patha nahi tha na.Sudha bhabhi ne apne dard ko hum sab se chupaaya lekin isse faayda kisi ko nahi hua ulta unke mann par hi bhoj pada aur ek ajeeb,anjaane darr ne unhe gher liya jisne unka jeena mushkil kar diya tha.par ab unke mann ka bhoj halka ho gaya hai aur woh apne aane waali zindagi ke baare mein soch rahi hain.aap unki fikr math kijiye.main unhe jaanthi hoon woh haarne waalon mein se nahi hain.mujhe khushi hai ki aap ne meri baat par gor kiya aur main bhagwaan se yehi dua karungi ki aapke jeevan ko khushiyon se bhar de". She moves away slowly and says "acha ab mujhe chalna chahiye".

Talli wishes to escape before her emotions betray her but Dushyant stops her calling out her name softly "Talliji,main aap se ……aap se kuch kehna chahtha hoon. aap ne mujhe yeh ehsaas dilaaya ki ateet ka zindagi par haavi hona theek nahi hai balki use ek khoobsoorat yaad ki tarah zindagi ka hissa banaana chahiye.lekin main yeh shaayad akele nahi kar paaunga.agar mujhe aapka saath mil jaaye tho yeh safar aasaan ho jaayega.main jaaantha hoon ki thoda mushkil hoga lekin main aap ko yeh yakeen dila sakta hoon ki agar aap mera saath dengi tho hum har mushkil ka saamna kar paayenge.aap ka kya khayaal hai Talliji?kya aap mera saath dengi?"

He looks hesitantly towards Talli who is now crying openly and yet there's a wide smile on her face and she nods her head vigorously. Dushyant smiles and Talli rushes towards him and hugs him. Dushyant wipes away her tears softly and says in a gentle tone "aaj se poora dhyaan rakhunga ki aap ki aankhon mein kabhi aansoo na aa paaye",and he holds her with his eyes closed and a content smile playing on his lips.

Sudha who had come to talk to Dushyantji about something had overheard the entire conversation and she felt very happy. She knew in her heart that Dushyant was a good man and he would love her sister unconditionally and would keep her happy. The un-natural fear that had been playing in her mind had now completely disappeared and right now she felt carefree and content. Only one thing plagued her mind-her harsh,cruel words to Gulaal "patha nahi mujhe kya ho gaya tha?main Gulaal se is tarah baat kaise kar sakti thi?mujhe tho uske dard ko pehchaan kar uska saath dena chahiye tha.lekin maine tho uske zakhmon par namak chidak diya. Gulaal ne hamesha meri izzat ki,mujhse dosti karni chahi lekin maine uske saath….chiii…kya kya keh diya maine us din mujhe usse maafi maangni chahiye…haan main jald hi usse baat karungi".

Meanwhile Kesar, who is just about to leave for office is called by Motaba to his room. Kesar quickly rushes over to Motaba's room thinking that he might be wanting to know the details of the trip he had taken last week. Motaba had not keeping well the past few days and so Kesar had not been able to talk to him properly. Kesar took all the relevant documents with him and entered the room with a smile on his face. He is happy to find Motaba going through some papers near the study table. He goes near Motaba and takes his blessings. Motaba looks at him and smiles

Motaba: "beta,tum aa gaye.main tumhara hi intezaar kar raha tha.aur tumhare haath mein yeh kya?" he laughs for a second before continuing "arre Kesar,maine tumhe yahaan kaam discuss karne ke liye nahi bulaaya.bas tumse kuch zaroori baat karni thi Gulaal ke baare mein".

Kesar is now completely confused "Gulaal ke baare mein?kya baat hai Motaba?"

Motaba: "pehle tum mujhe yeh bataoo ki woh office mein kaam karke khush tho hai na.use koi takleef tho nahi ho rahi". Kesar nods his head silently with a small smile and then replies "motaba,woh bahut hard-working hai aur bahut jald kaam ko seekh rahi hai.koi problem nahi hai.aap bilkul chintha math kijiye.main hoon na……"

Motaba smiles in relief "acha laga jaankar ki sab kuch theek hai.ab hum uske bhavishya ke baare mein soch sakte hain.beta pichle hafte jab tum us trip par gaye the tabhi main apne ek puraane dost se mila.baaton baaton mein Vasant aur Gulaal ki baat nikal aayi.usse maine kuch nahi chupaaya aur saari baatein share ki.phir usne mujhe apne bte ke baare mein bataaya jiski patni shaadi ke 3 mahine ke andar hi ek train accident mein guzar gayi.hum dono ke mann mein ek hi vichaar aaya ki kyun na hum dono bachon ko ek aur mauka dein apni zindagi sawaarne ka.pehle tho uske bte ne thoda resist kiya lekin jab Gulaal ki photo dekhi aur uske saath hui na-insaafi ka patha chala tho woh Gulaal se ek baar milne raazi ho gaya hai. Kesar,tum tho Gulaal ke ache dost ban gaye ho na.main chaahtha hoon ki yeh baat tum uske saamne rakho.main usse keh sakta hoon lekin main nahi chaahtha ki Gulaal kisi bhi dabaav mein koi faisla le.is maamle mein uski marzi sabse zaroori hai.isliye main chahtha hoon ki tum usse yeh baat karo aur uske mann ki baat jaan lo.kya tum yeh karoge Kesar?"

Kesar is looking at Motaba in disbelief. He felt his feet start to wobble and he quickly sits down on the sofa with a thud. His ears were buzzing and he feels a stinging in his eyes which he realises are due to the onslaught of tears. He quickly wipes them away and looks to Motaba questioningly.

"Motaba,Gulaal…….Gulaal ki shaadi itni jaldi…..yeh sab kaise…..aap ne kaise……….main kya……….main……".

Motaba laughs and says "beta tum tho aise ghabraa rahe ho jaise maine tumhari shaadi ki baat ched di ho. Kesar,main jaanta hoon tum uski bahut parwaah karte ho.lekin mera yakeen maano yeh ladka bahut acha hai.Gulaal uske saath bahut khush rahegi".

Kesar is unable to listen to it anymore and interrupts "NAHI,Gulaal uske saath………woh sirf mer……", he tries to calm himself down and takes a deep breath before continuing "Motaba,mujhe aapse bahut pehle hi baat kar leni chahiye thi…..woh main Gulaal………",just then a phone rings and Kesar has to stop.

Motaba looks at the phone which had now stopped ringing and then at his son "nahin beta,tum apni baat kaho.kya kehna chaahthe ho?apne mann mein kuch bhi math rakhna.tumhe patha hai na ki tum mujhse har baat keh sakte ho". Kesar feels his emotions getting the better of him and just as he is about to bare his heart the phone rings once again. Kesar sighs and says "Motaba aap call le lejiye.shaayad important hai.main aapse sham ko baat karunga".

Motaba looks at Kesar slightly concerned "theek hai beta aur ho sake tho maine jo tumse kaha hai uske bare mein sochna aur Gulaal ko….."

Kesar turns around and hastily replies "jee main sochunga….ab mujhe jaana hoga.office ke liye der ho rahi hai". With that Kesar leaves the room and therefore he misses the sly smile on Motaba's face.

Kesar is highly disturbed thinking about what Motaba said "yeh sab achanak kaise ho gaya?maine bekaar mein hi Gulaal ki baat sun li.pehle hi batha detha tho yeh sab hotha hi nahi.lekin main aaj sham ko hi Motaba se baat kar loonga.woh samajh jaayenge ki meri aur Gulaal ki khushi ek doosre mein hai.ab bas Gulaal tujhse bhi baat clear kar loon kyunki bahut ho gaya.ab yeh jaanana bahut zaroori ho gaya hai mere liye ki tum kis wajah se mujhse door bhaag rahi ho?aur please aaj sach sach batha dena Gulaal kyunki aaj agar tumne mujhe thukra diya tho main toot jaaunga.please Gulaal". He reaches the office deep in thought and the first thing he does as soon as he comes in is to look at Gulaal's work space which is disappointly empty. He looks around to find a smiling Gulaal in deep discussion about something with Durgesh. His eyes narrow and he clenches his fist in anger. He tries very hard to stay calm but Motaba's words and Gulaal's recent distant behaviour grip his mind. He opens the cabin door and closes it with a loud bang. He keeps pacing the room up and down "main yahaan itne dinon se ghut ghut ke jee raha hoon aur use dekho jaise koi asar hi nahi hai.bas aur nahi aaj tho is baat ka faisla ho hi jaana chahiye ki aakhir woh chaahthi kya hai?" he waits till evening and as all the employees leave one by one he comes to her and says "mujhe tumse baat karni hai abhi,isi waqt".

Gulaal is startled to hear his voice sound so hoarse and looks up to find his face pale and eyes blood shot. She instinctively comes closer and says "Kya hua Kesar?ghar mein sab theek tho hai".

Kesar replies "huh!ghar mein sab kuch theek chal raha hai.bas tum chalo mere saath tumse akele mein baat karni hai".

Gulaal warily replies "akele mein.baat itni zaroori hai tho abhi yahin baat kar lo."

Kesar's anger rises "maine kaha na ki akele mein baat karni hai.yahaan nahi ho sakti.koi sun lega aur main nahi chahtha ki is wajah se aur koi problem create na ho jaaye.tho chalo mere saath". Gulaal tries to protest but then the intense look in his eyes stops her and she quietly follows him into the parking lot near the stairs.

Kesar stands with his face turned away and his hands on his hips. Gulaal hesitantly speaks "Kesar ab bolo kya baat hai?kyun le aaye mujhe yahaan?bathao…"

Kesar turns around and grips her arms "Gulaal,bas karo na. kab tak yeh naatak karti rahogi?kab tak mujhe yeh jathaane ki koshish karti rahogi ki tum mujhse pyaar nahi karti.bahut ho chuka Gulaal.ab main aur bardaasht nahi kar sakta.tumhe patha hai na ki tumhare bina meri zindagi adhuri hai.mere chehre par hansi tho hai lekin tumhari muskaan ke bagair main kabhi khush nahi reh paaunga.main shaayad unchaayion ko choo bhi loon lekin tumhara saath agar na ho tho main kabhi sahi maayinon mein kaamiyaab nahi ho paaunga". He holds her face gently in his hands and says huskily "tum yeh sab jaanthi ho na tho, phir kyun apne Kesar ko itna tadpa rahi ho.bas karo na Gulaal please.aaj agar tumne mera saath chod diya tho patha nahi main kya kar baithunga.aaj main bahut akela feel kar raha hoon Gulaal,please apni zid chod do aur mujhse dil khol kar baat karo.bathao mujhe ki tumhe kaun si baat pareshaan kar rahi hai".

Kessar is now unable to stop the tears flowing from his eyes and places a gentle kiss on her forehead. He then looks at her face carefully. She had her eyes closed and he could see tears on her cheeks too. He lightly wipes away the tears with his lips and touches her lips lightly with his thumb. He softly whispers "main tumhe kisi aur ke saath nahi dekh sakta.main yeh bilkul bardaasht nahi kar paaunga Gulaal.isse pehle main mar jaana pasand karunga…." Suddenly he feels Gulaal's soft hand on his mouth which effectively stops him from speaking. He looks into her eyes which held so much love,affection,concern,desire,passion all for him but then why was she fighting him? He holds her wrist and lightly kisses her palm before removing her hand firmly from his mouth. "sach hi tho keh raha hoon.koi aur tumhara haath thaam le,main yeh dekh nahi paaunga Gulaal".

Gulaal looks at him pleadingly "tum aisi baatein kyun kar rahe ho Kesar?maine pehle hi kaha na ki Durgesh sirf mera acha dost hai aur kuch nahi.tum samajhthe kyun nahi…".

Kesar looks at her with eyes blazing "Durgesh...main uski baat nahi kar raha"

He takes a deep breath and continues "main nahi samajh raha….yaa tum samajhna nahi chaahthi Gulaal!tumhe patha hai aaj Motaba ne mujhse tumhaari shaadi ki baat ki. Woh chaahthe hain ki tum unke dost ke bte se shaadi kar lo.tumhe andaaza bhi hai Gulaal ki yeh baat sunkar mere dil pe kya beeti?"

Kesar's voice now gets desperate "tum samajh rahi ho na Gulaal ki iska kya matlab hai.main hamesha hamesha ke liye tumhari zindagi se door ho jaaunga.koi aur meri jagah lega tumhari zindagi mein.kya tum aisa kar paaogi?ek pal ke liye main yeh bhi maan loon ki tum mujhse pyaar nahi karti,mujhe sirf apna dost maanti ho tho kya tum apne is dost se door reh paaogi?kyunki main tho aisa nahi kar paaunga.ab decide tumhe karna hai Gulaal ki tumhare liye kya important hai-kisi ajnabi ke saath ek nayi zindagi yaa phir mera saath.main tumhare jawaab ka intezaar karunga Gulaal aur is baar jo bhi tumhara faisla hoga,main maan loonga aur phir kabhi tumhe tang nahi karoonga". Kesar leaves her arms and moves back a little with a look of quiet acceptance "ab chalo Gulaal,main tumhe ghar chod detha hoon".

Gulaal is still in a state of shock. She quietly follows Kesar to his car.Throughout the drive both of them are very quiet. Kesar remembers the previous night in the car with the Kishore Kumar song in the background. The mood had been so different and he feels a fear grip his mind "kya main sach mein Gulaal ko kho doonga?maine keh tho diya ki main uska faisla maan loonga lekin kya main yeh kar paaunga?kahin Gulaal ne us ladke ka haath thaam liya tho kya main yeh accept kar paaunga?aahhh". He decides to switch on the radio in order to escape his conflicting thoughts and the song "Gori teri aankhen" comes on.(If anyone wants to listen to the song here's the link)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hP0TR_ODl0

Gori Teri Aankhen Kahe

Raat Bhar Soyi Nahi

Chanda Dekhe Chupke Kahi

Aur Taare Jaante Hain Sabhi

Ke Kisne Dil Le Liya

Kisko Dil De Diya

Yeh Dil Ka Lagana Koi Jaanta Nahi

Gori Teri Aankhen Kahe

Raat Bhar Soyi Nahi

Kesar laughs unintentionally and thinks in his mind "yeh radio waalon ko har baar mere dil ka haal kaise patha chal jaatha hai". He takes a quick peak at Gulaal who is staring straight ahead but he could see her tears. He wanted to stop the car,take her in his arms and assure her that everything will be alright. But he knew he could not do any such thing right now because Gulaal had to take the decision herself. He looks ahead and concentrates on driving.

Dil Mein Teri Yaad Basi

Tu Samjhe Ga Nahi

Jo Hain Mere Paas Hai Tera

Mera Kuch Nahi

Kyun Ankhiya Chupao

Kyun Tujhko Satao

Dil Tod Ke Tera

Mein Kya Pao

Bol Piya Bol Piya Bol

Piya Bol Piya Bol Piyaaa Bol

Saajan Teri Baatein Badi

Ke Mein Raat Bhar Soyi Nahi
Chanda Ne Bhi Dekha Nahi
Aur Taaro Ko Yeh Maloom Nahi
Ke Meine Tujhe Dil Diya
Tera Dil Le Liya
Mera Tu Hi Hain Bahana
Kyun Manta Nahi
Saajan Teri Baatein Badi
Ke Mein Raat Bhar Sooyi Nahi

Gulaal had been in deep thought and the lyrics of the song suddenly hit her. What was she doing? She knew she had hurt Kesar but today she really understood the depth of his pain.How could she have caused him so much pain knowingly? What had happened to her?Sudha bhabhi's words had made her fearful but instead of sharing her fears with Kesar,she shut him out completely. How could she have so little faith in his love and commitment towards her? He tried his best to be her best friend and companion but today she realized that she failed him when he needed her the most.And to top it all Motaba's decision confused her. She realized the gravity of the situation but she was very clear about it in her mind.She could never imagine anyone else but Kesar as her life-partner,her soul-mate and her best friend.This thought brought a smile on Gulaal's face.She had been fighting a losing battle and the realization made her light hearted.

Aate Jaate Mausam Jaise

Lagte The Sabhi

Humne Bhi To Manga Rab Se

Apna Bhi Koi

Duniya Se Bachao

Palko Mein Chupao

Dil Jeet Ke Tera

Sab Ko Batao

Sun Gori Sun Gori Sun Gori Sun

Sun Gori Sun Gori Sun

Kesar is completely caught up in the emotions of the soulful song and looks at Gulaal and is surprised to see her look at him with tears in her eyes and a wide smile on her face.She touches his hand on the steering wheel and speaks in an emotional tone "Kesar main tumse……….",just then she looks forward to see a kid trying to cross the road. She screams "Kesar aage dekho…..woh bacha……". Kesar looks in horror and quickly tries to maneuver the car around the kid. He is successful and avoids hitting the kid but he loses control over the car and hits a tree on the side. He hears Gulaal scream his name "Kesar" before everything goes black.

ok I am not so sure about all the dialogues and the confrontation but now my mind is too jumbled up to correct any of it.Sorry😭I have a feeling I messed it up somehow.You have all been very kind to me until now hope the dayaalu bhaavana continues😭
