Location: KHURANA FARMHOUSE, CHATTARPUR, DELHI
Unable to understand the reason of Maan's staying away from Khurana Mansion and Khurana family, Savitri Devi along with Vicky came to Khurana Farmhouse. Savitri Devi was in no nonsense mood and wanted to get answers for all her questions. But seeing Maan returning to farmhouse totally broken, dishevelled and pale both Savitri Devi and Vicky were shocked. "Maan aapki tabiyat toh theek hai? Hum doctor ko bulaiyen." (Maan you are looking unwell, should I call the doctor?)
"Dadimaa, koi bhi doctor mujhe mere gunaah se mukht nahi kar sakta. Sirf mauth hi kar sakti hai." (Dadimaa no doctor can give me respite from guilt for the sin I have committed. Only death can give me relief!)
There was a tight slap given to Maan on his face by Savitri Devi and she said, "Koi bhi gunaah itna bada nahi hota ki uske liye jaan de jaaye. Saccha pachyataap (repentence) ho toh gunaah kam ho jaata hai." (No sin is so big that you need to give up your life for it. True repentence can melt away all the sins!)
"Nahi Dadimaa, jab jiske saath gunaah kiya ho woh hi jeevit naa ho toh pachyataap kaise karen?" (No Dadimaa, when the victim against whom you have committed sin is no more, then there no chance of repentence or forgiveness.) Saying this Maan fell in Savitri Devi's lap and broke down.
"Yeh aap kya keh rahe hain bhai? Kya aapko Geet mil gayi?" (What are you saying Bhai? Have you found Geet?) Vicky enquired.
"Geet? Matlab?" (Geet? Meaning?)
Maan along with Vicky's help narrated the whole story i.e. Maan and Geet's meeting, Geet's falling in love with Maan and then Maan's bet with Dev. Savitri Devi would have fainted hearing about Maan's crime had Maan and Vicky not supported her. Maan and Vicky got worried and quickly made her sit on the sofa saying, "Dadimaa, Dadimaa aap theek toh hain." (Dadimaa, Dadimaa whats wrong? Are you alright?)
"Maan aapki iss ghinoni harkat ke baad hum theek kaise reh sakte hain. Hummei aapse aisi umeed nahi thee."(Maan how can I be alright knowing about your disgusting and heinous act. I had never imagined this kind of behaviour from you.)
Savitri Devi was deeply shaken up from within and humiliated by Maan's this callous, selfish and ruthless behaviour. Savitri Devi never even in her wildest dreams could have imagined that her grandson who was apple of her eye and her pride would behave in such an inhumane manner with a girl. She finally lay on the sofa unable to support her weak body anymore. Seeing Savitri Devi's state, Vicky immediately called his Mom and Dad who came rushing along with Annie and doctor. Vicky narrated whole of Maan and Geet's story i.e. their meeting, Geet's love, & Maan-Dev's bet while doctor was examining Savitri Devi. Doctor came out and said her BP dropped due to stress.
After doctor gave her an injection and seeing Rishabh and Garima, Savitri Devi felt a little stronger and better. She said in a strict and no nonsense voice," MAAN AGAR AAP HUM SABSE KUCH AUR BHI CHUPPA RAHE HAIN TOH WOH BHI ABHI BATTA DEEJIYE! !" (Maan if there is anything else that you are hiding from all of us please tell us now!!)
"Yes Maan please answer Maa's question.'" Rishabh also insisted in a strict tone.
"Maan tum ek gunaah toh kar chuke ho abb aur matt karo! Warna mai humara Maa-bete ka rishta bhool jaaongi." (Maan you have already committed one crime, don't increase your problems anymore! Please tell the truth otherwise I'll forget taht you are my son.) Garima spoke as a lawyer.
"Woh...Dadima...Dad...Maa...Woh..." (Dadimaa...Dad...Maa...I...am...) Vicky was surprised seeing Maan hesitate as Maan was never embarassed about anything he has ever done. He was always confident and full of attitude.
"MAAN!!!" Savitri Devi yelled as she had by now lost her patience and cool with Maan.
"Dadimaa, Geet mere saat ek raat bitaane ke liye sirf tab tyaar hui ki jab mai uske saath sab reeti aur riwaazon se shaadi karoon." (Dadimaa, Geet only agreed to spend a night with me if I married her with all Hindu rites and rituals.)
"KYA?? Aap pichale chhe saal se shaadi shuda hain aur hummei battaya bhi nahi." (WHAT?? You were married for past 6yrs. and didn't tell me.)
"Woh shaadi sacchi ki thee yaa sirf shrath ke liye drama?" (Did you really married her or just faked it to win a bet?) Rishabh said sarcastically.
"Nahi Dad, woh sachi thee hum dono ne saat phere liye, maine Geet ko mangalsutra pehnaya aur uski maang bhi bhari." (No Dad, it was a true marriage with our going around the fire 7 times, my tying a mangalsutra around her neck and fill her parting with vermilion (sindoor).)
"Agar tumne Geet se vidhivat shaadi ki toh usse choda kyun?" (If you got married to Geet with all Hindu rites and rituals, then why did you abandon her?) Garima demanded.
"Maine Geet ko nahi choda Maa, woh hi achanak ek din gayab ho gayi." (I didn't abandon her Maa, she only one fine day disappeared.)
"Chaliye abb toh Geet aapko mil gayi hai." (Fine. At least now you have found her.)
"Nahi Dadimaa! Har koi itna lucky nahi hota ki usse second chance mile!" (No Dadimaa. Everyone is not so lucky to get a second chance.)
"Kya matlab hai aapka?" (What do you mean?)
Maan narrated meeting Gayatri and her looking like identical to Geet but that was where similarity ended. Maan also told that Gayatri was Geet's cousin. Gayatri had informed Maan about Geet's demise in child birth along with the demise of the baby!
Savitri Devi, Rishabh and Garima were in a state of shock. Rishabh collected himself and ordered, "GARIMA I WANT TO SENT MAAN TO JAIL FOR RAPING A GIRL! "
"Suniye, you cannot call it a rape as it was on mutual consent."
"No he conned Geet into thinking that he really loves her and this marriage is for life!"
"Yes, I agree but he can be booked for fraud but not rape. Besides who will testify on victim's behalf?"
"Just because there is no one to testify this filthy b*****d Maan will be allowed to roam scott free?"
"Rishabh, aap yeh kaise gande shabdon ka istemaal kar rahe hain apne bete ke liye?" (Rishabh what indecent language are you using for your son?) Savitri Devi said raising her voice.
"Toh aur kya karun Maa, iski aarti uttaroon? Maan ne dekha hi diya hai ki aaj kal ke bacche kitni vikrit soch rakhte hain. Mai aaj ek baap ki roop mei fail ho gaya hoon!" (So what should I do? Praise his heinous act? Today Maan has shown me how disgusting thoughts younger generation have. I have failed as a father!)
"Rishabh aap shaant ho jaayiye! Garima beta, tumhara kya sujhaav hai?" (Calm down Rishabh! Garima, what do you advice?) Savitri Devi questioned Garima trying to calm the situation.
"Maa abb toh bahut der ho gayi hai Maan ko sazaa dene ke liye. Kyunki abhi naa toh Geet aur naa hi uska baby zindah hai. Aur Maan aur Geet ki shaadi ka bhi koi gawah nahi. Court toh sabooton aur gawahon ke aadhaar par chalta hai. Iss liye abhi jaisa hai waisa hi rehne dijiye."(Maa, it too late to convict Maan now. Beacuse neither is Geet nor is her baby alive. There is also no proof or witness of Maan and Geet's marriage. Court proceedings are only based on proofs and witnesses. Hence, let things say the way they are.)
"Maan ne bhalhe hi Geet ki jaan naa li ho magar apne ajaname bacche ka qasoorwaar yeh zarur hai." (Maan may not have murdered Geet, but he is definitely a culprit of his unborn child!) Rishabh thundered.
"Magar mujhe ek baat samajh mei nahi aa rahi ki Geet jaisi seedhi-saadhi aur saaf mann ki ladki itni badi baat Maan se kyun chupai? Woh toh Maan ko bahut pyaar karti thee." (But I still don't understand a simple, innocent and straight foward girl like Geet why didn't she tell about her pregnancy to Maan? As she loved Maan a lot.) Garima was curious.
"Maa, Geet ne baat jaan bhujkar nahi chuppai. Woh bhai ko battane aayi thee magar Bhai aur Dev ki bet ki baat sunkar wapis laut gayi."(Maa, Geet did not hide anything. She had come to tell about her pregnancy to Bhai, but when she heard Maan bhai and Dev talking about their bet she left.)
"Iska matlab..." (That means...)
"Iska matlab yeh hai Bhai ki naa toh sirf Geet ko magar Adi bhai ko bhi aapka aur Dev ki iss bet ke baare mein maloom hai." (This means Bhai that not only Geet but also Adi bhai knows about yours and Dev's bet.)
"VICKY! Aaj se tum aur Annie, Geet ke baare mein jab baat karo usse "Bhabhi" bulaana naam se nahi!" (VICKY! From today, you and Annie, will refer to Geet only as "Bhabhi" not with her given name.) Savitri Devi ordered.
"Abb mai samjhi ki Vicky, Annie aur Adi kyun Maan se seedhe muh baat nahi karte the?" (Now I understand why Vicky, Annie and Adi were so formal with Maan?) Garima spoke understandingly.
Vicky nodded in agreement, whereas Annie said, "Maa sirf yeh hi ek akeli wajeh nahi thee." (Maa, this is not the sole reason.)
"Matlab??" (Meaning?)
"Geet didi mujhse aakhiri baar KIL mein milne aayeen theen, "bye" karne ke liye. Tab mujhe nahi patta thaa ki Bhai ne Didi ke saath kya kya kiya hai. Unhone mujhse bye kahaa aur kahaa ki mai dance kabhi naa chodon aur chali gayeen. Shaam ke saat baje the aur sab teachers aur bacche Mess mein khaana khaane gaye the. Mai KIL ke khaali dance classrooms mein Vicky bhai ka intezaar kar rahi thee, ki tabhi naa jaane kahaan se woh Dev aa gaya. Mujhe akela dekh kar usne mere saath zabardasti karni chaahi. Magar ek dam se Geet didi wahan apna phone doondhte hue aa gayee. Unhone ne mujhe Dev is bacchane ke liye ek danda lekar Dev ko maarne lagi magar woh sirf 18saal ki ladki thee toh zyaada der tak ladh nahi paa raheen theen. Shor sunn kar KIL ki Principal, Management aur security aa gayi. Security ne Dev ko pakad liya aur Police ko phone kar diya. Jald hi Police Inspector aa gaye aur Dev ko arrest karke le gaye aur abb Dev jail mei hai. Geet didi ki request karne par KIL ke Principal aur Police ne Dadimaa, Dad aur Mom ko nahi battaya aur naa hi media ko jisse Khurana parivaar ki izzat sare aam neelaam naa ho. Aaj mujhe shram aati hai kehte hue ki jiss seedhi-saadhi aur bahadur ladki ne meri izzat bacchai, uss ladki ki ki izzat mere hi bhai ne sare aam uchaali hai. Mai aap sab badhon ko yeh baat chhe saal pehle batta deti magar Didi ne mujhe apni kasam di thee!" (Geet didi had come last time to meet me KIL and say "bye". At that time I didn't know what had transpired between Bhai and Didi. She said bye to me and asked me never to give up my dance and then left. It was 7 in the evening and all students and teachers of KIL had gone to Mess for dinner and I was sitting alone in empty dance classrooms waiting for Vicky bhai. Suddenly out of nowhere Dev came and started misbehaving with me. Just then out of the blue Geet didi came on the excuse of having forgotten her phone and started beating Dev with a log of wood. But Geet didi was a young girl of 18yrs. and started getting tired. Hearing the sounds of scuffle, KIL's Principal, Management and security arrived. The security tied Dev and informed the Police. Soon Police Inspector came and arrested Dev and till now he is in the prison. On Geet Didi's request Principal of KIL and Police did not inform Dadimaa, Dad & Mom. Also care was taken that media were not informed, otherwise Khurana's prestiage would have been ruined. Today I'm ashamed to say, that the innocent and brave angel who fought for my honour; her own prestiage, dignity and virtue was trampled upon by my own brother. I would have told you all elders this 6 yrs. back but Didi made me swear on her and not tell you all.)
"Maa, aap abb bhi kahengi ki isse sazaa nahi milni chahiye?" (Maa, you still feel he should not get punished?)
"Isse sazaa mil chuki hai aur aage bhi milti rahegi. Pehli sazaa ki isne apne bhai-behan ka iske liye pyaar aur izzat ko diya hai; doosari sazaa ki isse Geet se maafi maangne ka mauka abb kabhi nahi milegaa aur aakhiri sazaa ki abb yeh humare sneh se bhi door ho gaya hai!" (He has been already punished and will continue being punished. His first punishment is that he has lost love and respect of his siblings. His second punishment is that he can no longer get forgiveness from Geet and his last punishment is that he has lost our love as a family.) Savitri Devi showed Rishabh the true picture which maynot be a legal punishment but at personal & emotional level Maan has and is being punished!!
But Rishabh was not satisfied, "Aaj se mere sirf do bacche hain. Chalo Annie mujhe iss aadmi ke saath ek hi ghar mein saas lena mushkil ho raha hai. Vicky, tum Maa aur Garima ko apne saath KM le aana!" (From today, I have only two children. Come Annie lets go, I can't bear to be in the same house as him. Vicky you please bring Maa and Garima with you to KM when you come.) Rishabh left farmhouse with Annie in anger.
Maan had hidden his crime so that he can stay surrounded by his family's love but he could not hide it any longer due to his guilt and getting intensely perturbed by hearing of Geet and his unborn child's demise!! After hearing his grandmother and parents statements regarding his heinous conduct he was now actually getting the gravity of situation and his misconduct.
NEXT DAY
Location : RANAWAT INDUSTRIES (RNI), HEAD OFFICE, NEW DELHI
Just as Geet entered her cabin she called Girijashankarji, "Kaka, kya aap humare kamre mei kuch samay ke liye aa sakte hain?" (Kaka, can you please come to my room?)
When Girijashankar came in the room he was shocked to see Gayatri looking pale and weak. "Betiya, aap ghar jaa kar aaram kijiye hum meeting kuch din baad mei kar lete hain yaa hum meeting dekh lete hain." (My child, why don't you go home and rest? We can postpone the meeting or I can go and attend it.)
"Nahi Kaka, Gurgaon ka project jald se jald shuru karna hoga." (No Kaka, Gurgaon project has to be started as soon as possible.)
"Theek hai betiya jaisa tum theek samjho?" (Alright my dear as you think is right!)
"Kaka, kya aaj aap humare saath meeting mein beith sakte hai?" (Kaka, can you please attend tge meeting with me?)
"Haan kyun nahi beta." (Yes why not?)
Gayatri was still feeling a little weak today so she asked her father's Munishiji, Girijashankar Gupta to sit with her at the meeting. Since past six years everytime she was stressed her monthly cycle would be very heavy. Samething happened yesterday as well and hence, she got late for the meeting with Khuranas and then fainted as well. If the meeting with Khuranas was not so important she would have taken off yesterday and today.
Soon it was time and Geet with Girijashankarji and her team reached the conference room. Maan had arrived with his father today along with rest of the KC team. Both Maan and Geet were looking pale and subdued. Meeting started and it went off well. When the meeting was dismissed for lunch, Rishabh with Adi went to meet Gayatri in her cabin. Seeing Rishabh, Gayatri got up and touched his feet surprising Rishabh and Adi. "Jeeti raho beta! Abb tumhari tabiyat kaisi hai?" (How are you feeling now?)
"Pehle se behtar Uncle." (Better than before Uncle!)
"Magar tum abhi bhi thakki lag rahi ho. Beta hummei aaj ki meeting postpone karni hogi kyunki Maan ki dadi ki tabiyat achanak se bigad gayi hai aur hummei hospital jaana hai." (But you are looking very tired. I'm afraid my dear, we will have to postpone today's meeting as Maan's grandmother has suddenly fallen ill and we have to go to hospital.)
"Uncle you please don't worry! Please see to your mother's health first." Gayatri spoke with compassion.
"Thank you beta! Take care!" Rishabh and Adi left for KM.
