Next day, all were getting ready for puja at bajpayee house. Anant was dressed in pista color kurta and golden chudidar.
OM - Anant. Sab tayariya hogayi na puja ki
ANANT - ha dad. Don't worry. Sab hogaya he
Sugandha enters there
SUGANDHA - suniye ji. Wo kanpur wale mama ji aye he
OM - agaye? Aao mil lete he
SUGANDHA - Anant. Ritika ko bolo jaldi kare. Uske sasural wale ate hi honge
Sugandha and Om goes from there. Anant smile thinking that navya is going to arrive soon. He goes in ritika's room
ANANT - ritu...
He enters and looks at ritika who was wearing red velvet saree with golden border and blouse. Her hair were tied up in a French Juda. She turns around and looks at Anant who was looking at her
RITIKA - bhai.. Kaisi lag rahi hu?
ANANT - kon ho tum?
Ritika looks confused when Anant asked her
ANANT - meri behen kaha he?
RITIKA - bhai kya keh rahe ho?
ANANT - sahi to he. Ye kon saree me ladki khadi he? Meri ritu to saree pehenti hi nahi
Ritika smile while Anant laugh
RITIKA - kya aap bhi bhai
ANANT - bht sundar lag rahi he
RITIKA - thank you bhai. Pata he? Me aaj bht khush hu. Aaj mere shadi ki peheli rasm hone jarahi he. I am so excited bhai
Anant smile lightly. He was happy not because of this marriage but because of ritika
ANANT - chal ab tu yaha beth. Wo log ate hi tu ajana niche
Ritika nodded and anant left from there.
After some time the Mishra family enters. Ranbir was dressed in red color kurta and white chudidar. He hugs Anant. From his behind navya came dressed in peach and pista color long anarkali suit. Her hair were left open with long earrings. Anant was just lost looking at her. She came near him and they both kept on looking at each other. Ranbir looks at them and smile.
RANBIR - ehem...
Their eye lock broke by ranbir's interference.
RANBIR - sab thk he na Anant bhai
Ranbir teases him while Anant and navya looks down feeling embarrassed
OM - are Ranbir beta. Aao na
Om called him. Ranbir goes from there keeping Anant and navya alone
ANANT - hi
NAVYA - hello
ANANT - waise navya. Aaj tum sachme bht achi lag rahi ho
Said Anant for which navya looks down feeling shy
NAVYA - tum bhi kafi ache lag rahe ho
ANANT - wo to me hamesha lagta hu
Said Anant praising himself while navya nodded in disbelief
NAVYA - tum fir shuru hogaye na
Navya was about to go when Anant holds her hand. She looks at him with a jerk
NAVYA - Anant, kya kar rahe ho
He moves towards her
ANANT - tumhare liye ek surprise he
Navya looks at him in confusion
NAVYA - surprise?
Anant nodded in yes. Anant makes navya to look at stairs. She was backfacing him. He indicated her to look at stairs. She looks at the direction and became surprised. Ritika enters with sugandha. Navya was first time impressed with ritika. Anant came near her and whispers in her ears
ANANT - dekha. Meri behen saree me kitni beautiful lagti he
Navya smile looking at him. Ritika came near them
RITIKA - hi navya. Kaisi lag rahi hu?
Navya smile looking at her
NAVYA - bohot achi
RITIKA - ab tum mjhse khush ho na?
Navya laugh lightly and nodded in yes. Ritika hugs her and goes from there. Navya looks at Anant and folds her hand
ANANT - aise q dekh rahi ho?
NAVYA - zarur Ranbir ne tumhari help ki hogi
ANANT - kya... Kya Matlab
NAVYA - mene noticed kiya Anant. Ritika ne wohi saree peheni he jo ma ne uske liye engagement me shagun ke liye li thi.
Navya said smiling. Anant looks down cutely as his surprise was known to navya now
NAVYA - ye sab tumne kiya na
He nodded in yes while navya smile
NAVYA - thank you so much Anant. You know what ma bht khush hogi ritika ko dekh ke. And all because of you
ANANT - ye sab mene tumhe khush karne ke liye kiya navya
Navya looks at him in a jerk. They were staring each other. When suddenly meeta came between them
MEETA - navi chal. Puja ka time horaha he. Chalo Anant
Meeta took navya with her while Anant watch her going
Ritika and ranbir were sitting infront of Holy fire and pandit ji was doing puja. Navya was also sitting behind Ranbir. Anant who was standing opposite to navya was staring her. Navya's eyes falls on him. They both again stare each other. Anant smile and scrunched his eyebrow while navya broke eye lock and looks down
PANDIT JI - puja sampanna hui
Ranbir and ritika join their hands and started taking blessing of elders.
SUGANDHA - navya beta. Ye Prasad bat dogi?
NAVYA - ji aunty
Navya took the plate from sugandha. She started giving the laddoo to the guest and everyone. She was distributing the Prasad when Anant looks at her. She came near him and gave him a laddoo
ANANT - navya.. Tum khush to ho na
NAVYA - aisa q puch rahe ho Anant
ANANT - kyuki.. Kal hum sab udaipur ja rahe he. Ranbir aur ritika ki shadi hojayegi
Navya smile lightly and looks down while Anant looks at her. She looks here and there and find Ranbir and ritika
NAVYA - waha dekho
She asked Anant to look at them. Anant watch Ranbir and ritika talking and laughing amongst themselves
NAVYA - kitne khush he wo dono. Aur wo khush he isliye me bhi khush hu
Anant looks at her. They both gave a light smile to each other. Navya goes from there while Anant smile looking at her...
