Nandu and Beauty are wandering about hand-in-hand.
Beauty: Kal hamari bhi mehndi ki rasm hai….mujhe bada darr sa lag raha hai!
Nandu: Darr? Kyun? Tumhe lagta nahin ki tumhe achcha pati mil raha hai?
Beauty: (suppressing a smile) Aisi baat nahin hai ji….lekin aap shayad samjhenge nahin….ek ladki ke liye apna ghar chod kar, naye ghar jaane mein kitna badla-badla lagta hai….
Nandu: Par tumhare liye toh aisi koi baat hai hi nahin…bas, Jassi ke ghar se mere ghar tak aana hai….aur waise bhi, main aadha din toh Jassi ke ghar hi rehta hun….toh tum toh ek tarah se shift hi nahin karogi! Main toh kehta hun, saari packing karne ki bhi zaroorat nahin hai…..aadhe kapde wahin rehne do…jab zaroorat hogi, lene chale jaana!😆
Bua comes suddenly from behind and hugs them tightly. "Tere jaisa pati hote hue, meri kudi ko aur kisi cheez ki zaroorat hi nahin padegi!"
Neha is gazing anxiously outside, waiting for Raj. Armaan firmly leads her in. "Don't worry, Neha…..tum jaanti ho na usse….fashionably late aayega….chalo, rasm shuru karte hai!"
While Neha and other ladies sit down to get mehndi put on their hands, the men hold a whispered consultation about how to get the festivities going. Someone suggests antakshari, and they all readily agree.
Jassi is admiring the delicate pattern being applied on her hands, when Armaan's voice rouses her from her reverie.
Armu: Mehndi laga ke rakhna, doli sajaa ke rakhna....
The entire group of men-turned-boys swoops down on their respective sweethearts. Armaan comes close to Jassi and Neha and gives the latter a nudge.
Armu: …Lene tujhe o gori, aayenge tere sajhna…..
Neha blushes and makes a bemused gesture of "When??"
Nandu: Okay, ab tum ladkiyon ki turn!
Neha: Aa ja, aayi bahaar, dil hai, bekaraar
O mere Rajkumar, tere bin raha na jaye……
Armaan: (coming close to Jassi and gazing straight in her eyes)
Ek din aap yun, humko mil jayenge
Phool hi phool rahon mein khil jayenge
Maine socha na tha……..
There is just a hint of tears in Jassi's eyes, which Armu deftly wipes away.❤️
Beauty: (grinning at Nandu) Aajkal tere mere pyaar ke charche har zabaan par….
Nandu mouths "Achcha?"
Beauty:…..sab ko maalom hai aur sabko khabar ho gayi……
Nandu again mouths "Toh kya?" and goes over to Pari.
Nandu: (wickedly) Aajkal tere mere pyaar ke charche har zabaan par…..
Beauty gives him a Medusa-like glare.
Nandu: (retreating) …sabko maaloom hai aur sabko khabar ho gayi!😆
Chaman: (looking at Angel) Ilu Ilu….Ilu Ilu
Ilu ka matlab I L U
I love you!
There is a wave of uproarious teasing, which silence itself as another voice rises from the ladies' team—
Bebe: Udd ja kaale kaawan tere muh vich khand paawa
Le ja tu sandesa mera, main sajke java
Baagon mein phir jhoole pad gaye, pak gaya mithiyan ambiyan
Yeh chhoti si zindagi te raatan lambiyan lambiyan
Ki ghar aaja pardesi….ki teri meri ik jindari….
Neha wistfully repeats the last lines—"Ki ghar aaja pardesi…..ki teri meri ik jind…." when a voice cuts mastefully through the crowd.
"Duniya mein, logon ne
Dil apne phit thaame
Aayan hun, le kar main
Phir kitne hungame
Mujhe ko pehchaan lo main hun….."
"DON!" yells the excited crowd.
A matter-of-fact voice says, "Arre yaar….pehchaante nahin kya mujhe….Main Don nahin Raj hoon!"
(For those who don't know, Parmeet has done a serial called DON😃.)
Armaan gives him a "you prankster!" look and rushes to hug him. But Raj's eyes are searching for Neha. When their eyes meet, there is no need to add anything more.😳
