Hey guys. So I have edited some of the dialogues, parts etc. When I first wrote it, it was meant to be an OS so I didn't give much thought to the characters and their back story. Now that it's a SS, I've removed some bits so it flows better. (24/01/2021)

Part 1
It had been three years since Sai moved out of Chavan Nivas. She was tired of her self respect taking a hit day in, day out. The only thing she regretted was not taking a stand sooner.
It was Devyani and Pulkit's daughter, Deepika's birthday. Now that Pulkit was a doctor, the Chavans accepted him. Devyani was better too. The Chavans were greeted by a stream of photographers at the gates of the Desphande house. 'Mujhe maloom nahi tha ki Pulkit itna bada doctor hai,' Omi murmured to Ninad. 'Acha hua humne usse rishta jod diya,' Sonali added. Karishma walked ever so slowly so she could have her picture taken.
Moments later, a white BMW stopped in front the gate and the paparazzi swarmed towards it. Out stepped a guy dressed in white trainers, black ripped jeans and a white t-shirt. 'That's Aniket. The papers have dubbed him the most promising singer of recent times,' Mohit commented. Karishma went up to him for a selfie and he obliged. 'Masta mast. Damadji ka bade logo ke saath uthna bethna hai,' Bhavani motioned for the rest of the family to follow.
Once inside, a star struck Karishma went looking for Aniket. She finally found him behind a pillar. He had his back to her and was whispering sweet nothings to someone. Karishma took a picture but forgot to turn the flash off. Aniket turned around. 'How dare you take my picture? This is a private party.' Aniket was annoyed. 'I.. I..,' Karishma was lost for words until she noticed who Aniket was speaking to. 'Sai!' she screeched loud enough for the rest of the family to hear.
'Is ladki main koi sharam nahi hai.' Ninad was the first to speak. Before Sai could respond, Aniket spoke. 'and who might you be?' looking Ninad square in the eye. 'Tum isse nahi jaante. Bade ghar ke ladkon ko phasana iski aadat hai,' Ninad spoke again. 'You still haven't answered my question,' Aniket crossed his arms over his chest. 'Isne humare bete ko phasaya tha. Acha hua picha chutta isse' Bhavani spewed her venom. 'Jaan to meri chuti aap logo se,' Sai's spoke softly. 'Aaj kuch mat kahiye. Deepika ke liye,' The old Sai would've argued but she now knew when to pick her battles. 'Lagta hai tumhe koi aur mil gaya. Kaise lar leti ho tum Sai,' Karishma tried to stir the pot.
'Stop it please,' Pulkit said, trying to diffuse the situation. 'Sorry sir, hum ja rahe hai,' Sai grabbed Aniket's hand. 'Haan chali jao. Ye shareef logo ka ghar hai.' Bhavani wanted to have the final say. Aniket had heard enough. He went close enough so only the Chavans could hear him. 'Aur kuch kaha to poore Nagpur ko hi nahi, Poore Maharashtra ko pata chal jayega ki yeh mahan Chavan khandaan ne meri Sai ke saath kaisa bartav kiya. Mere ek ishare pe bahar khade saare reporters aa jayenge. Bulau unko?' Aniket smirked.
'I hope she's worth it,' Ninad muttered under his breath. 'My wife you mean? She most definitely is,' came the answer, leaving everyone shocked. 'Yeh ladka!' Sai thought to herself. 'Pata hai,' Aniket mouthed as if hearing her thoughts. 'Thank you.' Sai said, once they were alone. 'Thank me later,' Aniket winked pulling her close to him.
