Imagine!

Scene: Everybody is in a daze. This was supposed to be a happy occasion, but gloom has descended. A few are searching for the bride, a few are speculating what could have happened. Jalaal is fuming, but he can't do anything but to stay silent and wait for Jodha to answer his questions. Mirza feels humiliated, he wished he had never left Kabul. Maham Anga enters, with her white robe bellowing in the wind.

MA: Ye, dekhiye Jalaal.

J: Ye kya hai badi ammi?

MA: Ye khat hain, jise Shivani ne apne chahnewale ko likhe hain.

J: Ye aapko kahan se mile?

MA: Ye humein begum Jodha ke khwabgaah me mile, inhe humne sambhaalke rakha tha, taaki hum aapko dikha saken ki kya chal raha hai.

J: Aap ye jaanti thin ki woh kisi aur ko chaahti hain? Aur aapne humein kuch nahi kaha?

MA: Sh*t.
