Seeing her every day is torturous. Seeing her with somebody else is pure hell. But It’s out of hand now. How can she go and say yes to the marriage. Well she has time and again claimed to move on. If she didn’t love him then what is with the moving on part of her story. She had rejected him multiple times in the pretext of her non existent feelings. You have moved on too with Dr. Arohi taunted his heart. It was the right decision assured his brain. This conflict has been going on for a while now. His heart always over powered his head. Neither could he be with her nor could he see her with someone else. Her sister has informed him just before he went into the OT that Akshara has also agreed for the marriage with a boy who is a family friend. Thank God! that his personal emotions have never over powered when he was performing a surgery. One of the reasons why he loves his job. It gives him the much needed break from the exhausting reality.
His mom has invited the Goenka’s for a dinner to celebrate their union. He made an excuse of work. How far and how fast can he run to escape this reality? It’s s just a matter of time when it will catch up to him and drive him into the sinking hole. He was sure she wouldn’t show up either. For whatsoever reason she is running from him even after he did exactly what she wants, he was sure she wouldn’t come to his place. But when he saw the pictures he immediately recognised her bracelet. He could feel himsef unconsciously reaching for her wrist on the screen. He tried to ignore it, he tried really hard! Just because you are trying real hard doesn’t guarantee it will work out. And it took him exactly 5 mins before he lost his self control. Riding this bike is also reminding him of her, her smell, her touch, her voice, her eyes, her hair, everything! Before he could turn back he reached the gates of his house. There is no going back now! As soon as he stepped inside, his eyes locked with the one person he was so desperately trying to avoid. What the hell! He is in a messed up state and his emotions are all over the place and this woman is dancing! She is celebrating his wedding?! How can she be so callous! How can she be this unaffected?! He taught his juniors to be in control of their emotions. He taught them that what ever may be the case, they should never lose sight of what’s right! That Dr. Abhimayu Birla set aside his basic principle! He lost it! Rushing with anger that scared him, he held her arms to pull her to him and screamed shaking her violently!
Abhi - HOW COULD YOU?! Tumhe thoda sa bhi farak nai padta? Tum kaise kar sakti ho yeh sab itni aasani se?! Haste gaate khushiyan mana rahi ho mere shaadi ka? Tumhari toh icchha poori ho gayi na ki mein move on kar raha hu! Bolo kaise karleti ho! Mujhe bhi jaanna hai!
Akshara is shocked at this behaviour of Abhi! She knew he will lose it someday but she never thought he would actually act upon his feelings. Yes she wanted him to move on but not with her sister! Yes she wanted him to lead a happy life even if it’s without her! Yes she was devastated when he came to her house asking for her sister’s hand for marriage! But she did and will stand by what she said. She is doing this for her family and it’s not a facade!
Akshara - Abhimanyu yeh kya kar rahe ho! Sab dekh rahe hai haath chodo!
Akshara looks at everbody staring at her. Its making her uncomfortable. How can Abhi cross this line when he has decided to get married to her sister? How can he do this in front of the entire family? Arohi is throwing daggers at her with her eyes. Kairav is not at all pleased. Her rest of the family is shocked at this behaviour. Abhimanyu’s scream has even alerted Bade Papa who has been engrossed in his phone all evening expressing his displeasure. His family was equally shocked! Oh God not again! Abhimanyu is again creating a scene!
Kairav - Abhimanyu haath chodo uska! Yeh kya badtameezi hai?
Abhi - Bolo! Bolo Akshara itna aasan kaise hai tumhare liye? Itna aasan kaise hai tumhare liye move on karna? Itne asaani se kaise ha kardiya tumne kisi aur se shaadi karne ke liye?
Akshara - What?!
Kairav - Abhimanyu bohot ho gaya tumhara! Har waqt tamasha karne ki aadat ho gaya hai tumhara!
Abhi - Aaj mujhe jawab chahiye Akshara! Aaj mein jawab liye bina nai jaunga na tumhe jaane dunga!
Akshara - Abhimanyu yeh kya bole ja rahe ho tum? Konsa shaadi?
Abhi - Wow! Ab tumhe yeh bhi nai pata! Tumhe toh kuch pata hi nai hota! Tum ye nai jaanti ki mein tumse pyaar karta hu! Tum yeh nahi jaanti ki aaj bhi tumhari awaaz sunke bhaga chala aata hu! Tum yeh bhi nai jaanti ki tumhari ek jhalak ke liye mein kuch bhi karne ke liye tayyar hu! Tumne khud shaadi ke liye ha kardiya aur ab tum kuch nai jaanti! Tumhari behen ne khud mujhse kaha hai ki tumhari shaadi tey ho gai! Ab is baat se mukar ke khud ko galat saabit mat karo! Dobara!
That is when she realises that Arohi has lied! Once again! Abhi has never confronted her about anything. He has always believed what he is told. Why does he believe in everything he is told? Why can’t he try to think or find out if it’s true! It was her fault! She should have cleared all the misunderstandings then and there instead of giving air to the fire! She should have cleared everything up with Abhimanyu and the family! Maybe it’s time everybody hears what she has to say! Maybe its time they LISTEN!
She takes off his hands from her arms.
Akshara - Nahi! Na meine shaadi ke liye ha bola aur nahi meine kisi se shaadi ki baat ki! Shaadi toh tumhara ho raha hai wo bhi mere behen ke saath! Bhool gaye? Move on mein nahi tum karrahe ho! Shaadi ka rishta leke tum aaye the mein nahi!
Abhi - Toh tum shaadi..?
Akshara - Meri shaadi nai tumhara ho raha hai! Tum apne mom ke liye yeh sab karna chahte the toh ab kya hua? Ab tumhe kyun farak pad raha hai? Agar mein shaadi karu bhi toh? Tumhe isse kya Abhimanyu? Tum toh move on kar chuke ho!
Abhi - Don’t taunt me Akshara! Ha mujhe farak padta hai! Tumhari mere aas paas hone se farak padta hai! Tumhari har baat se farak padta hai! Tumhari khushi se farak padta hai! Tumhari aasoon se bhi farak padta hai! Lekin tumhe toh aaj tak meri kisi baat se farak nai pada! Tum kis mitti se bani ho? Kaise kar leti ho tum yeh sab? Itne aasani se mere pyaar ko thukraadiya! Itni aasani se mujhe sab ke saamne galat saabit kardiya! Mera dil itna galat bhi nai ho sakta ki mein tumhari isharon ko samjhne mein galti karun! Kya ho tum?
Akshara - yahi toh sawal mein tumse poochna chahti hu! Bolo Abhimanyu kaun hu mein? Tum toh mujhse pyaar karne ki dava karte ho toh bataon kya jaante ho mere baare mein? Kitna jaante ho mujhe? Mera naam! Mera ghar ka address! Mere family mein kitne log hai yeh! Iske alawa kuch bhi nai! Tum yeh nahi jaante ki mere liye meri family kitni important hai! Tum yeh nahi jaante ki meri family mere liye itni important kyu hain! Tum yeh nahi jaante ki tumhari aahat bhi mere dil ko thama deti hai! Tum yeh nahi jaante ki tumhari nazrein meri saasein rok deti hai! Tum yeh nahi jaante ki HA…..HA MEIN BHI TUMSE PYAAR KARTI HU!
(Jaaniye Background Music)
Akshara - Lekin meine tumhe mana kardiya! Jaante ho kyu?…..Kyunki mein jaanti thi ki tilak waale tamashe ke baad mera parivar tumhe aur tumhare parivaar ko kabhi accept nahi karega! Isiliye meine tumhe mana kardiya! Isiliye mein chahti thi ki tum move on kar jao aur khush raho!
Abhi - Nahi!….Mein nahi maanta ki tum mujhse pyaar karti ho! Agar sachme pyaar karti toh itni behrehmi se mera dil nahi todti! Baar baar mere jazbaaton se khelti nahi!
Akshara - Mein us din chup thi kyunki mein na bolke, tumhe aur tumhare pyaar ko galat nahi saabit kar sakti thi! Aur ha bolke apne parivaar ko thes nahi pohcha sakti thi! Meine tumhe aagae badne ke liye majboor kiya kyunki mein jaanti thi ki hum ek nai ho sakte! Aur pal pal marte rahenge! Isse acha toh kamse kam tum khush rehte kisi aur ke saath hi sahi! Jab tum mere ghar aaye the Arohi ke liye rishta lekar tab chilla chillake kehna chahti thi ki ha mein tumse pyaar karti hu! Lekin tab tak bohot der ho chuka tha! Meine tumhe itni baar thukra diya ki agar mein tumhe hazaar baar bolti toh bhi tum nai maante shayad!
Meine tumhe ruby se bachaya kyun ki mein tumse pyaar karti hu! Meine tumhari Ma ko apna mana aur unki tabyat ke liye prardhna ki, kyunki mein tumse pyaar karti hu! Meine tumhe aag mein se bachaya KYUN KI HA…..MEIN TUMSE PUAAR KARTI HU!
