"Ma i hate her", Arnav complained
"She always cries whenever i play with her"
"Let us find some other house "
"I simply hate her i don't want to see her face plz ma"
"I too hate him like anything how dare he touch my pony tail?? Said sobbing Khushi
After some years
"U fatoo go away this is not for u?? This is for my sister Sana??? Do u hear that???"
"U cranky how dare u call me fatoo?? Said Khushi and toppled the chocolate cake on his face"
And giggled away
In turn Arnav just smeared his face with her face and laughed loudly both of their faces fully covered with chocolate dripping from each other face...their family amused at their antics and guffawed loudly which embarrassed both of them... and stood fuming at each other and staring contest began .
The whole family started putting stakes on them to see who the winner will be.. This is yet another round of entertainment for Gupta and Raizada families.
GENERATIONS TOGETHER
"Friends are the siblings' god forgot to give us"
- Anonymous
Puneet gupta and Susheel singh raizada are the long lost siblings in their last birth reborn to become the best friends of all times. Yeah this is how the business world both of them.
Mr.gupta and Mr.raizada somewhere met in one of the slums of Mumbai at the age of 15 to know they were orphaned and had none to feed them and chased down to face the harsh realities of the world at an tender age. They first became the dabba walas, sometimes cobblers and yet another mediocre jobs.
Every day they would find odd jobs to fend themselves they would support each other in every way and would take care of each other in the cruel world. Somehow they collected Rs 1000 after 1 year of their union and started a small tea shop and tiffin shop. They continuously worked hard day and night to start a small scale fast food stall and it got expanded to small restaurant "friend's cafe" and soon it became a restaurant which employed more than 50 employees and became RG restaurant.
This is how they joined hands to become greatest buddies and to become millionaires and pioneers of hotel industry in Mumbai. Soon their base shifted to delhi in due expansion and got married to yet another set of friends Sarayu and Devyani.
Sarayu and Devyani faced a fair share of abuses and poverty along with societal atrocities inflicted on women in the name of caste, sect, and male chauvinism. The girls stood bravely and binded themselves in terms of trust and love and their devimaiyya.
They were sold as maids at the tender age of 9 by their respective drunkard fathers' but by divine force they were employed in same house/diwan. Being young girls they instantly became friends and shared their pain,they accepted getting beatings from their fathers were far better than being servants.
They became lovely ladies and they learnt chikankari work from an elderly lady worked in that diwan who showered endless love on them her name was Ashwini from lucknow. they used to call her chachi. But good old times ended when chachi died and they were driven out.
They found RG restaurant as their solace to fend themselves. During free time they used to sell their chikankari clothes and teach the neighbouring children at Lakshmi nagar chawl in delhi. They lived contently. They always welcomed everything with smile.
During some errands of their selling sarayu and Devyani met puneet and susheel instantly they fell in love and their friendship glowed for years together.
They became rich and bought a house in delhi named it as shantivan and promised themselves to live together always and years to come.
When Devyani gave birth to girl she was named Ashwini by sarayu by recalling their chachi.After few months Sarayu gave birth to handsome twins Shashi and Narayan.Again ill times started sarayu did not live for long she died after few years of twins birth.
Devyaani became the mother to Ashwini,Shashi and Narayan. Puneet was shattered by sarayu's death and he was supported his rock hard friend susheel to continue living and he worked harder to alleviate the pain of sarayu's death. He dogged himself day and night along with susheel. when Manohar was born happy times came back to Shantivan.
The four kids grew together and became attached to each other so well. Devyaani took care of them while her husband and her devar worked.
The ladlas and ladli grew old enough to go to college.
Shashi and Narayan were always the body gaurds to Ashwini. She was always their di (though only few months old to them) she bossed around everyone at home. She was the angel in the life of puneet chachu.
Manohar was the spoilt ladla of the house who was pampered to the core by his sister and brothers. The parents and chachu treated with equal love and strictness.
Ashwini became a renowned writer and as she had immense interest in literature and romance.
Shashi and Manohar took reigns of their hotel industry while completing their degrees in business.
Narayan was always a bright student became a renowned ENT specialist.
Hell broke loose at Shantivan when Ashwini loved a man who did not have a surname Mr.Aryan who was a small time entrepreneur in the hotelier industry. She met him at one of the parties with her brothers. He was one of the associates of Shashi.
She was enamoured by his behaviour and his rugged look which attracted her like a magnet. She fell in love with him. After playing hide and seek of emotions for a considerable time Aryan proposed to Ashwini at New Year's party. This was witnessed by Shashi and Manohar enraged by it,Shashi fought with his bosom friend Aryan. Yes he was shashi's friend he was a school friend and college mate for business he was a scholarship student funded by a Christian missionary.
part-1(b)
Ashwini cajoled his other sensible brother narayan to see her love and convinced her puneet chachu and lastly Aryan proved his love to Shashi.
In between narayan met Aryan and found him right for his Di. Narayan and Shashi spoke about Aryan to their dada susheel and mother Devyani promptly backed by puneet chachu and Manohar. As a romantic at heart devayani promptly accepted Aryan without any second thoughts and she liked him for her daughter
So SSR gave his name and daughter to Aryan whom he interrogated for an hour after finding he is suitable for his princess Ashwini.
Thus Aryan became Aryan singh raizada (ASR) though lived with ashwini he did not accept any money from his dads and saale sahabs for becoming big in the hotel industry. He worked harder and harder ruthlessly and became a man to reckon with. He revamped the hospitality industry with his creative and innovative ideas. He made enough money.
Now Shashi, Aryan and Manohar became partners to rule the hospitality industry in the name of RG group of luxurious hotels.
Soon Narayan made his name big in the medical world by doing medical research in ear, nose and throat. He established SaraDevi hospital in the heart of delhi in memory of his ma and badi maa.
Girls from lucknow Garima, shrinidhi and Manorama were selected for Shashi, narayan and Manohar by Devyaani and Ashwini. Garima and shrinidhi were sisters and Manorama was the cousin of Garima and shrinidhi. They were simple and beautiful instantly liked by both the ladies at home they met them in the devimaiyya temple. Oddly they were living in the Lakshmi nagar chawl and fending their parents by running a sweet shop and balancing their careers.
Garima was a part time school teacher, shrinidhi was a social worker who worked in a Christian missionary and Manorama was working in a beauty parlour.
Rishta was bought at the Sharma house at Lakshmi nagar to pack the ladies to Shantivan. Thus Shashi, Narayan and Manohar married Garima, Shrinidhi and Manorama respectively.
Happiness was thick and palpable in the air of Shantivan. A big star Sarayu smiled graciously at her family's new found happiness and blessed them for eternity.

The Trip

We have lots of work to do Anjali come do the packing
Don't be a lazy bone sannu i know u acted deliberately to take leave so get up help ur di in packing said ashwini who was packing the stuffs for past 1 hour.
Ashwini babhi i think we should take some sweaters and meds too what do u say?? Mano come here enough of ur makeup and come check anything is left to be packed chided Garima lovingly. Shrinidhi u have to do the talking to the kids to convince for the trip ok.
Anjali and sannu looked at shrinidhi gave a "oh so poor" look and gave each other a wink went aside to help their mom and aunt.
Shrinidi was cribbing continuously to devimaiyya how tough to cajole the kids of the Shantivan. She grudgingly admitted it was easier to handle a room full of toddlers than their "so called kids". "One problem at a time", shri she said to herself. Shrinidhi somehow managed to convince Payal for the trip she being a good girl accepted it instantly. Actually Payal was free as her project entitled had been finished before date and she definitely need a break. It's going to be chilling trip to Nainital. She works as the project head for the RG hospitality unit where the current project was executed at rajasthan site.
Next target was akash when shri he remained unavailable and directly went to voice mail. Then Manorama chirped to her "hello hi bye shri, akash bitwa goes to Mumbai for an important deal for AR fashions". So akash is out of the picture right now.
Now comes the most difficult situation to handle the world's most stubborn kids (yes they are kids not a fully grown individuals/rather say professionals) when one accepts the other refuses and vice versa. They were never in the same wavelength. This had to be handed over Garima jiji and ashwini bhabi thought shrinidhi.
Shrinidhi went into Devyani nani's room to give her afternoon dose of medicine.
Maaji here is ur medicine, plz come with us how can we leave u and go. Devyani smiled at her dil and said it would be difficult to walk and roam around the places shri. U know na my knees will be troubled. So don't worry u all can go enjoy. Soon they were joined by other elderly ladies and stating the same and she refused to them politely. Seeing their glooming faces, she gave a mischievous smile and said i don't think i will be all alone here.

Fire and Ice
The Mumbai deal made ASR frustrated like hell he is in fact
bubbling like a volcano anytime ready to erupt, the fabric dealers were making their nonsense talk and clearly wasting his precious time. What made him more worried was the fabric was damn good to let loose so he had to go through this ordeal. Finally inwardly cursing his right hand aman and vowing to cut his craps next time and of course akash. The meeting was almost never ending and his patience snapped and curtly said that they would meet at their Mumbai office to check clothing line the next day thus winding up the meeting.
Never is he going to entertain them at Mumbai he vowed to himself he had better deals to do. This would need great share of patience and witty sarcasm to notify the end results so he quickly called his younger brother Akash Singh Raizada COO of AR fashions.
As a dutiful brother Akash summoned before his bhai he let out a sigh after knowing everything from Aman and this is going to be difficult. He may be a silent man but he can always put up with his bhai's mood swings right ASR had his mood swings even at the age of 2.
The kid always threw tantrums one way or the other in riling up his mother Ashwini and ganging with his aunt Garima by giving her a heart melting charming smile, his mother knew him so well he is anything but innocent.
Mami used to call him kalyug Krishna who is too mischievous and quite handsome as well.
Akash knew better, his brother can be charming ASR as well as demonic ASR as described by his sis cum friend khush. He grinned slyly at their equation. His trance was broke by his phone's buzz which clearly stated he is in for trouble.
ASR swivelling in an executive chair always had an enigmatic persona who attracted everyone like a magnet and his guts at a younger age in the competitive fashion world was really appreciated and his knowledge in breaking deals was simply epic. He did not earn his name and fame through raizada tag alone. He is a self made young man who started his business from scratch and did not intend any help from his family though insisted very much by his dad and uncle. He vehemently opposed all their financial investments and just started only from the earnings from his internships during his Harvard days. The only support he accepted from family was witty and soft-spoken Akash, his cousin. The cool and composed brother had to answer about his recent escapades to his furious and relentless ASR. Most importantly why the hell his phone was unreachable.
Part 3b
Fire and ice
Akash prayed sincerely to all the gods above to give him a chance to see the day lights tomorrow because his chances are very few now. Bracing himself, he knocked his brother's cabin and entered it. He could clearly see the lion roaring and pacing the lengths of his den. ASR heard the rap on the door and fully faced Akash.
He started his usual why the hell u disappeared from AR Akash how and when??? Was it you who had to attend the fabric dealers meeting Mr.COO?? Can u give me any sensible reason for your recent escapade? Stressing on the word recent he ended his rapid firing session.
Akash gulped heavily and quickly acknowledging the fact his bhai had known about his escapades and wanted him to spill the beans. He groaned mentally why his brother possessed razor like brain and he had to say it. He blurted out he was in "love" with Payal Gupta. He saw the knowing smirk appear on the lips of his brother. His eyes gleamed and his brother laughed loudly. Chiding himself having fallen in the trap of his brother, Akash vowed he would take his retribution soon.
Arnav was inwardly grinning at his brother's discomfort when he inquired about his escapades he knew his dumb brother had found his match in Payal whom Akash lovingly called payu several times thinking no one is within the hearing range. It's high time he should make a move from being shy teenage love sick puppy to be the man. So he prompted his brother now and caught him.
Payal was always been a loving sister to him and his duty to protect her as well.
Bhai u knew along na?? Akash adjusting his spectacles and ASR nodded smugly. Enough is enough now back to business talks. Akash why did u leave the meeting hun?? Akash sheepishly replied he went to give a personal treat to payal for winning the rajasthan project in rain tree restaurant. That's not the answer u idiot u should seriously think u have left a meeting and not cared to postpone it or made any alternative arrangements and went to love like a teen boy on a first date.
I know akash love is a distraction which shrieks u from ur duties and responsibilities. It becomes the priority and invading ur brain all the time keeping u busy even when u r not occupied and keeping out of fruitful thinking. It just day dreams and messes your FUTURE goal
Akash immediately replied no bhai I had already informed that i would personally visit Mumbai for finalizing the fabric i.e. eventually tomorrow.
Then why the heck they visited here and met me? Answer me Akash. I said them to visit AR and get their procurement and quality details from Aman and how particular we are about quality of the fabric and leave their presentation ppt with us to know more.
I think they decided to impress u with their presentation which ended in nonsensical talks Am I right bhai?? ASR tersely nodded. Another thing," bhai, love is not a distraction but the insight and boost for your future which urges you to work hard and multiply you responsibilities so that the future will be safe and sound. It reminds there is a heart somewhere which constantly beats for u and yearns for your arms after u tire out in your business/work. It makes the day and night beautiful even the day seems to be ordinary".
First time in his life ASR stood spellbound by his younger brother's speech about love and practically his legs were glued to the ground. Akash after watching his brother's expression felt satisfied and punched in air in victory after all he is also an ASR and gave a wink to his brother and went to Mumbai.
