KT is sitting and pressing Baa's feet…
B: Enough…
KT: SIT DOWN AND LET ME PRESS YOUR FEET! You're the biggest in the house yet you act like the youngest… Now you yourself were in pain and screamed my name, didn't you?
Baa says something about KT being Tulsi's shadow…
Tulsi comes there…
T: Yes yes… Now that the shadow has come, you've forgotten me… You don't even remember me anymore, now that you have KT…
Baa is about to get up…
KT: WHY ARE YOU GETTING UP NOW??? WHAT DO YOU WANT?!?!?
B: CANT I EVEN TAKE MY SPECTACLES?
KT: I will get it for you, wont I? And what is this? You haven't taken your morning medicines! This bottle is supposed to empty by now! Do I have to remind you all this??
Umm.. The woman is gonna be 105 in a few months… YOU DO NEED TO REMIND HER ABOUT STUFF LIKE THIS… Geez…
T: Yes! Shout at her!!! Trouble her like this!!!
B: She's my great grandson's wife… I don't mind…
T: She's not yet his wife.. But we should make… Fast… I am tried of doing all this work now.. I think she should take over all this and help me… We should find a good date fast and get them married…
B: What's the hurry?? I had danced so much at Parvati's party that my knees still hurt… Now I'll get well soon, and then I'll dance at their wedding too!!!
T: No more delay, Baa… I think something bad has it's eye on SN… Before anything awful happens, this wedding should happen fast…

Eklavya is sitting in his room, schizoid…
E: LAKSHYA CANNOT MARRY KT!!!!!!
He's sitting and… Writing something? What's he in third grade, reading aloud what he's writing?
Flashbacks of Tulsi stopping Eku – KT engagement, Holi, when KT collapsed on front of him… Lakshya and KT dancing during Holi…
Lol, I just mentioned third grade and lookie thaaat! He has one of those red and black "Nataraj" pencils… Except, he's doing something very few NORMAL third graders do… He's scraping away at Lakshya's face in photograph… Ick…
E: KT… And Lakshya.. These two names can never be together!!!!!!!
He breaks the penci and then totally loses it and goes all PSYCHOOOOOOOOOOOOO, (the screechy violins from the shower scene of Psycho start playing in my head…) breaking stuff and just rolling around on the walls in this feral manner…
Lakshya and KT's voices play in his head among which Lakshya's voice says "Lakshya and KT can never be separate… Nothing can separate us…"
There are two pictures broken in this process… One of all the brothers in this generation… Which leads me to think, how did they get Manthan to pose with Nakul and Lakshya? Hmm… Must have been inebriated then…
The other broken picture is of a smiling KT… Eklavya picks it up…
E: GAAAAH!!!!! NO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Ummm…. I think he's having a fit… Dino mom, please bring some of Mayank's anticonvulsants and inject into your second psycho son…
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Tripti is pacing up and down in her room, like wild animals in their cages… Now if she growls a lil, then it's a spot on impression of a enraged rhino…
Poor Sahil does the mistake of coming into the room…
S: Have you seen my sherwani??
Hahahaha! Sorry... He's so goddamn clueless!!!
Tr: THANK GOD! You still have your voice!!! I thought after what happened downstairs you'd totally forgotten you had one…
S: What do you mean??
Te: I am asking you.. What right does Ganga have to come into MY HOUSE AND DECIDE WHEN MY SON SHOULD GET MARRIED!!? And you just stood there like a statue!!!!!!
S: Badi Maa has already told you… She is "Lak-shayy's" mother… She has the full right… And I think Badi Maa is right, And I have a request… Please don't ask me anything more about this…
I see fear in Tripti's eyes. And I like it!

*SCENE OF THE DAY- 1*
Nakul bumps into Saanjhi, who drops her file… He looks at her like "Oh, stuff and bother!!!" and picks the file up…
S: What happened "dear"??? Who's thoughts are you lost in?
N: Some people just don't understand the difference between an office and their houses…
S: Chill… You're the one who was lost in your thoughts… You're the one who bumped into me, and now you're shooting your mouth off at me? Temme one thing Mr Nakul… Why is your face always like this?
N: Lemme make one thing very clear.. I don't have time for your questions… I come here to work… Excuse me…
He leaves…
S: "Ajeeb aadmi hai…!"
Nakul comes into Ganga's office…
G: Nakul???
She gets up and goes to him…
N: I'm sorry, Maa…. I didn't knock… I just thought I don't need permission to come into your room…
G: And you are absolutely right… Sit down…
N: No Maa… I havent come here to sit… I came here to say something, something I should have said long back…
G: What is it?
N: Thanks..
G: For what?!?
N: You have made our lives better… I don't even know if I deserve all this… This opportunity to prove myself and remove this stain on me.. Of being so unsuccessful…
G: It's nothing like that… I just…
N: Please maa… Let me say it… When you came home with Haldi for Lakshya's shagun… I saw that happiness on Lakshya and Papa's face that I haven't seen for years… For the first time, we were all happy together… After years, I felt that my family was finally complete…
Ganga is crying… So is Nakul… Sniff.. *Nimmi wipes her own tears and blows her nose…*
N: It's all because of you… Why didn't you come into our lives earlier??
He hugs her…
G: I have waited so long… For my children to know how much they meant to me… More than anyone else in the world… Thank you…
Saanjhi comes in and looks at the hug-fest like "Oh jeez… What's happening here? I didn't get the memo about hugging the boss…!"
S: I'm sorry…
Nakul wipes his tears and excuses himself… Saanjhi looks at him, her eyes following him till he's outta sight (but not outta mind! 😉) She comes in…
S: Was he just crying!?!? Hard to believe… That such a rude guy has such a sensitive side to him…
G: Who doesn't bow to their emotions? Till today he's seen only sadness and unhappiness… He's almost forgotten to express his emotions… Today, after years, he has shown his emotions… In front of his mother, he expressed his feelings…
Awww… Is Saanjhi falling for our "Coconut Man"…?? All hard and nutty from outside, all soft and sweet inside??

Tripti is standing in her room, in the darkness… Daksha comes in with a candle singing "kahin deep jale, kahiin dil…" 😆😆
Tripti is totally subdued and mellow…
Tr: What is it, dadi?
D: This is a candle… In a movie, whenever a heroine is sad, she lights a candle… As the candle burns, her heart burns… As the wax drips, glycerine filled tears drip from her eyes…
Tr: No.. Nothing like that…
D: I know everything…Your eyes see only Ganga now… I have the "jadibooti" to your problems… This book!!!
Tr: Book? What book is this?
D: How to win over your husband and keep him in your control!
Hahahaha!!!!! Nagin music plays as she talks about "pati ko vash mein karna…" Naaaahiceee….! 😆😆
Tr: Where did you get this?
D: From that Prajakta's cupboard! No wonder she has Chirag under her control… Otherwise how could my Hollywood hero Chirag go behind that side heroine??? You read this book and control your husband!!!
Tr: There's no point for all this… He doesn't love me anymore… He always thinks I'm wrong…
I kinda felt bad for Tripti at this point… She cares that Sahil doesn't love her…. I thought she didn't really care…
D: He thinks you're wrong? Now you're getting Lakshya and KT married why would he think you're wrong?? Read this book and get him under your thumb!!! Ganga will get out of his heart and he will see only your tears and your mangalsutra..
Lol, the rest of her is rather hard to miss too… I don't think he CAN oversee all that… umm.. Body mass?? 😕
D: Be calm… And if Tulsi comes in front of us, I will fight her.. After all, this is all about the honour of a Virani bahu…!

*SCENE OF THE DAY – 2*
It's a bright new morning at the lofty, noble Temple of Lies and Debauchery… The mistress of the mansion (Tulsi) , sits sipping her Earl Grey, dunking her shortbread "biscuits" in them…
The doorbell rings… WELL OF COURSE THE MISTRESS OF THE HOUSE DOESN'T OPEN THE DOOR! IT'S SO COMMONFOLK!!! *English accent* "What are the hired help for, daaaahling?"
T: Raghu, see who's at the door!
KT: I'll see!!!
She opens it with one big sunshiney smile that soon turns into a quivering mess… It's the man who rules me, Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, the one, the only, MANNNNNNTHANNNNNNNNNNNN VIRAANIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!
KT turns orange… You know, that effect they have.. Yea, that happens like 20 thousand times, effectively blinding my family and myself… KT moves back…
Manthan comes in, glaring.. KT remembers the rape and runs away… Tulsi comes there and is shocked…
T: HOW DARE YOU COME HERE?!?!?
Ekalvya comes in from behind and stands in front of Manthan… Woweee… Two mega semi evil hotties! *swoon*
E: I brought him here….
KT looks confused…
T: You??
E: Yes… I am your grandson, how could I disobey you?
T: I said to bring him here??!?!!?
E: Well, I was always taught in this house, to support family members… So I was forced to being Manthan here… You have said, "Innocent until proven guilty" ! No one is fully bad… Everyone has a little bit of goodness left in them… You said to give people one more chance… SO I did… I think Manthan has been victimised… Just like me… He's being accused of something he didn't do, like me…
T: Eklavya…
E: I just gave him a chance…!
T: But we have proof! He was in KT's room!!
ON AN ENTRIELY DIFFERENT DAY!!!! WTF YOU TALKING ABOUT, WOMAN!???
E: Even I went into her room that day… Now why don't you accuse Mayank also?
Dino mom makes her appearance…
D: EKLAVYA!!!! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING!?!? THAT MAYANK DID…???
E: No maa… In Dadi's point of view… Whoever went into KT's room that day is the criminal… I am just saying.. Mayank also went into KT's room before Manthan did… Then why isn't she blaming Mayank!?!? Why put the blame on Manthan?!!?
T: But it was proved!!!!
E: All the proving will be done by the court… Till it is not proves, please, no one will accuse Manthan… If it is proved that he is in fact the rapist, I will put him back in there… Until the court gives its verdict, I wont let anyone accuse him… I will not let him go through what I had to go through….
Ekalvya leaves…. Manthan glares at KT and Tulsi and mutters something and leaves… Hee hee hee hee!
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Manthan is standing, looking all hurt… Awww… Someone give him a lollypop or something! Tanya pats his shoulder…
Ta: Look what "haalat" they have made of my son in a few days… I didn't know that Tulsi maa was so hard hearted… And I… I couldn't do anything to help you also..
M: No need to worry anymore Maa… I am out now…
Karan comes there…
K: Just because you are out, doesn't mean everything is over…
Manthan doesn't even bother looking at him, coz, like us, he knows what's coming up…
K: The case is not over… The accusations on you havent been proved wrong yet.. And if they are proved right, I will punish you before the court does…
Ta: What are you saying Karan? Don't you believe your son? Being a father you are against your own son?
K: Now that Eklavya is helping him… After all, he is Ansh's son… He will do that only…
T: It's a pity, Karan… You have full trust in Ansh's dirty blood, but not an ounce of faith in your own son…
She pats Manthan and leaves… Manthan follows her, but not before giving Karan an up-and-down look like "Dude… You need a right grip on yourself… Coz you're totally whack!"
************************************************************ ***************************************************
Tulsi in thought:
T: SN is a temple… And in this temple, the criminal who assaulted a woman's dignity is staying? No, I will not get peace till he is punishes…
Eklavya comes, looking totally hawt…
E: DADI?? (waves his hand in front of her) Hello??? (smiles) What are you thining of? How to celebrate the coming home of your grandson from jail, naa? I knew it! Anyway, Wont you congratulate me on my first win? I told you, I would bring Manthan back, didn't I? By the way, I have to say one thing… I know Manthan is the rapist… That's why I brought him back here… To torture you…!
T: DON'T TEST MY PATIENECE, EKLAVYA!!!
E: Anyway you think I am Ansh.. Why don't you just call me that? Anyway Ansh lives in Eklavya's body now… Not only will I ruin your sleep and your peace of mind, slowly, I will also stop your breaths..
Karan comes there…
K: You're right!
Eklavya looks at him like something furry crawled across his dinner plate…😆
K: Ansh is back… But let me remind you… Even then he couldn't defeat Maa and me… You wont either…
Eklavya's look… It's priceless… He's completely unfazed… He looks completely complacent….
K: We will throw you out like we threw your father out… Wait and Watch!!!
Eklavya doesn't even look remotely scared…. Hee hee hee… 😆😆
