If Vanga directed Saiyyara
22 years of Hungama
Saiyaara Male lead is overrated!!!
"Haan, I know, par main ek jagah hamesha rahungi, aur tu nikaal nahi sakta."
"Yaha," She placed his hand on his beating heart, and her eyes still holding his gaze, "aur na main tujhe nikalne dungi." ❤️❤️
You had my heart completely for giving such a lovely update
I am glad this is not a sudden realisation which happened out of the blue.
Raavi took her time and connected the dots. ❤️
I like Raavi and Dev's interaction short but straightforward. Her realisation that Shiva is the one she has always loved and craved for made her forgive him.
And her "par abh shayad wapas aane ki wajah mil gayi hai." looking at Shiva made my heart flutter❤️
And her subtle confession and their kiss❤️
It was perfect (as I said earlier their first kiss has to be special) and it couldn't have been better than this 😍
I am so in love with this ❤️❤️
I am so sorry I haven’t been regular with my comments but I’ve been regular with catching up on the chapters and I want to say this is such a beautiful story! I can’t.. I can’t put into words how beautiful this is. That last kiss.. AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH.. jaan lelo meri.. their progression, realizations, confessions.. it’s almost unbearable how beautiful all of it is. Thank you! For this masterpiece!
21. Saaru? Saaru.
Shiva and Raavi were lost into each other, quite literally. They were breathless, but they'd rather keep kissing than part away for air, and while leaning on Raavi, Shiva went a little overboard when he kissed her and she almost tripped from her place. That finally put a halt on their kiss and Shiva held both Raavi and his bike and they panted for breath, Raavi's nails digging on his arms and they both looked at each other.
A second of shock and then laughter.
They laughed aloud, Raavi covered her face and Shiva looked up, shaking his head, and then they met each other's eyes. And Shiva edged closer to her again, Raavi resting her head on Shiva's shoulder, and they took a minute to get their breathing at a normal pace. Shiva felt like the most happiest man in the world as he kissed her, and now held her, and then he remembered that she was leaving tomorrow.
And all of it came crashing down.
He was the happiest man for only a minute.
Raavi felt his heartbeats still pacing, showing how anxious he was and she gulped, breaking away from him and held his hand.
"Come on, mera last day hai, aur tu aise rahega." She chirped, poking at his cheek and he looked down, his teary eyes broke her heart and she clicked her tongue, "Shiva." She hugged him, holding her tears because someone had to be stronger. "Listen," Raavi sighed, pressing his hand, firmly, "we don't have to do this." She said, although this was not what she wanted, she was still not sure about herself and keeping Shiva waiting, was not what she wanted.
"Tu bolna kya chahti hai?" Shiva asked, now looking at her, a little startled.
"Tu pehle shaant ho jaa, aur Mahadev se Shiva ban jaa, tera gussa aaj nahi jhel paungi."
Shiva rolled his eyes, "Raavi, I love you." He said, urgency in his voice.
"And I know that," Raavi said, meeting his angry eyes, "but mera sure nahi hai na, aur phir, I don't want you to keep waiting for nothing."
"Par tune kaha ki tu wapas aayegi."
"Haan, main aaungi, par..."
"Par kya?" Shiva was getting angry by the second now, "tune mujhe favour return karne ke liye kiss nahi kiya right? Ki tujhe laga ki Shiva bechara, ussne itna mere liye kiya hai toh ek kiss hi de du..."
Raavi got off the bike, she could not believe that he had just called their kiss a barter trade off. She was seething, very close to hitting this man in front of her, but she did not. "You did not just say that," She took another deep breath, facing Shiva who was also breathing heavily. "Tu gusse mein kuch bhi bakta hai, tujhe pata hai na? Hadd hai yaar."
"Main toh gawaar hu na, gusse main kuch bhi bolta hu." Shiva retorted back and Raavi bit her cheeks to refrain from saying anything. "Accha hai ki tu jaa rahi hai, mere jaise bail-buddhi toh nahi hoga hai na..."
With that Shiva sat on the bike, and Raavi held her tears, "tu aise mujhe goodbye bolne waala hai?" She asked softly, as he kick-started his bike, "kal milega?"
He only huffed in anger, "nahi," he said and accelerated his bike, and Raavi now felt tears brimming in her eyes. "Goodbye," He said, without looking at her and zoomed off, in the darkness and Raavi shut her eyes, the lone tear escaping.
She entered her house and saw Prafulla standing in the hall and she hugged her Maassi, and Prafulla hugged her back, she had heard everything what happened later and instead of being happy that Raavi and Shiva were not anything serious, she saddened at the tears of her niece.
"Chal tujhe Massi-Maa special adrak wali chai pilati hu," Prafulla cheered her and Raavi smiled, wiping her teary eyes, "Jamnagar jaake apni iss Massi ko bhulegi nahi na?"
"Mar jaungi uske pehle," Raavi answered and Prafulla kissed her forehead.
"Ye kya senti baatein, mere bina?" Anita said, hugging the duo and they smiled, Raavi did not want to spent the last night with her family with a sulky face. "Fuyi, aapne mere liye toh kabhi adrak wali chai nahi banayi."
"Ey Anita, abh tu aagayi hai toh tu hi chai bana de."
And while Anita pouted sadly, Raavi and Prafulla laughed, and before Anita could go ahead, she offered to make the tea, "meri pyaari behna, aur behna ki Fuyi, aaj Raavi the Mahaan, chai banayegi." She smiled, as Prafulla and Anita got into their daily squabbles.
Raavi sighed, boiling the water and adding the tea leaves, and shut her eyes. Shiva and his anger, would one day destroy everything with him and her too.
_
Raavi was all packed to leave, the cab would arrive in an hour or and she stood in front of the old house which was still standing firm.
Pandya Niwas.
The one house that started it all.
Raavi remembered the first time she had come here.
Prafulla had held her hand and brought her here, and the moment she stepped in, she fell in love with the house, Dhara, Gaumbi, Suman Kaki who sneaked her toffees and the little vanar sena.
Those were some good days.
She walked in the house and was instantly bombarded with hugs and questions, "Main aane wali thi Maami ke yaha, tu kyu aayi?"
Raavi shook her head, "Kuch dena tha issliye."
"Tumne humare liye kuch laya hai?" Rishita asked, a grin on her face and looking at Raavi's hands which held shopping bags, "mere liye bhi?"
Dev chuckled, his hand on Rishita's shoulder, "Rishita, Raavi tumhe nahi jaanti, woh kaise..."
"Nahi," Raavi spoke before Rishita could sulk, "I actually bought for Rishita and not you, sorry Dev." She shrugged, handing them whatever she had bought for the lot.
Krish beamed in delight at the t-shirt and hugged Raavi, Dhara awwing at the sari and Gautam at the shawl she had bought for his mother, and Rishita, she was so happy to get the sweet tail-cut kurti. She hugged Raavi, and Raavi smiled, hugging her back.
"Ye itne pyaare gifts hai," Dhara smiled, tucking Raavi's hair, "kitna miss karenge hum tujhe."
"Main bhi," Raavi hugged her and they all drew closer for a group hug.
Once they parted, Raavi wiped her tears and took a deep breath, she did not want to cry for him. That idiot who loved his price more than anyone.
She was really done crying for men.
"Anyway, main chalti hu..."
"Main Shiva ko..." Dhara offered to call Shiva but Raavi shook her head.
"Woh nahi aayega," She smiled sadly, sighing, and slumped her shoulders, "Bye, Suman Kaki ko meri taraf se..." She could not completed the sentence and they all saddened at her teary voice. "Bye,"
Raavi joined her hands and at the next moment rushed away from the house, wiping few tears that fell on her cheeks. She looked back at the house, and sniffed, "bye Shiva," She whispered, "bahut yaad ayegi teri, gadheda."
And with that, Raavi took the leave from the house, and her heavy sighs fell on a heartbroken Shiva who was watching her from a distance.
_
"Aise muh latka ke baitegi pure raste?" Prafulla nudged Raavi, "teen ghante ka raasta hai bhai."
Raavi cried keeping her head on Prafulla's shoulder and she sobbed, Anita who sat in the front seat felt teary eyed for her. Raavi had been through so much this past two weeks, and she had shone so well, and they were only proud of her.
"Ey Raavi, ro mat baccha," Prafulla sniffed too, tears falling on Raavi's head, wetting her hair. "Aur ye mera make-up, ye kharab ho jayega toh woh Shiva, woh saand mujhe chudail ki daadi kehkar bulayega."
Raavi chuckled amidst her tears and wiped her tears, nodding, "Bilkul nahi, Raavi ke hote hue, uski Massi ko koi Shiva kuch nahi bolega."
"Ey Maami ki Behen ki Beti! Zabaan sambhal ke bola kar."
They were all surprised to hear Shiva's arrogant tone from besides them and Raavi gasped, seeing Shiva just besides them, on his bike, Krish behind him. Anita told the cab to stop and Shiva halted his bike, while Raavi got out of the car, and Shiva mounted off his bike. They stood across each other, and if Raavi was surprised, Shiva was finally peaceful on seeing his gadhedi standing in front of each other. The rest of the party watching the duo, while Prafulla was bargaining with the cab driver to not include waiting time in the charges, Krish and Anita were immersed in watching the duo.
"Tu yaha?"
He took a step towards her.
"Ye rasta teri massi ka hai?"
"Hota toh jaise tu nahi aata."
Another step closer.
"Rasta ka nahi pata, par Maami ki Behen ki Beti meri hai."
"Accha, ye kab hua?"
And he finally took the last step closer.
He towered her, and she dared to meet his eyes.
"Abh,"
She frowned when Shiva turned and whistled at Krish who nodded, and with one swift motion, threw the bag from the bike towards him and Shiva unfolded the most beautiful dupatta Ravi had laid her eyes on. He very carefully held it, while the dupatta played in the wind and then placed it on Raavi's head and she held the dupatta.
Raavi could not help but smile and she tugged at the dupatta, "dupatta aacha hai, iska ye matlab nahi ki maine tujhe kal ki baat ke liye maaf kiya."
"Haan haan," Shiva scoffed, pulling her closer by sneaking his hands around her waist. "Somnath aaja, phir hisaab barabar karte hai. Aur tu kya, main khud tujhe apne aap se alag nahi karunga, na karne dunga." He said as they drew closer, their distance kept diminishing with every second.
"Gadheda,"
"Gadhedi."
"Maami ki Behen ki Beti," 10 year old Shiva said, to a 10 year old Raavi, "Tu ek number ki gadhedi hai!"
"Haan phir bhi tu mere saath hi rehta hai, toh ho gaya tu bhi gadheda."
A 14 year old Shiva pulled a 14 year old Raavi's hair, "Chipkali hai tu, dimaag mein chipak gayi hai."
"Dekhna Shiva, ek din dil mein bhi chipak jaungi."
"Ey Dobi!" 20 year old Shiva, twisted Raavi's hand, "Iss ghar mein tu kabhi nahi aayegi!"
"Aaungi, aur tere hi sar pe tandav karungi, bandar kahika."
"Chala jaa yaha se Shiva, mujhe kuch dher akela rehna hai,"
"tuje muh todna hai toh tod le, but main nahi jaunga tuje akela chodke."
"Shiva!" Raavi snapped in front of him, "kaha kho gaya?"
Shiva looked around them, those memories bringing a smile on his face as he met Raavi's eyes.
"Dobi, tu nahi samjegi." He kissed her forehead, "pahoch ke call karna, aur haan, bhatak te mat reh, waha main nahi rahunga, free ke bike rides ke liye aur haan," Raavi tilted her head, listening to him in awe, "time pe khana kha lena, aur ye uth patang cheeze mat khana aur..."
But before he could complete, Raavi slammed her lips on his and Shiva pulled her towards him as he held her lips, kissing her to last him for a long time. Raavi wrapped her arms around his neck and Shiva held her nape, caressing it with his fingers and while they kissed, Krish and Anita watched them, mouth ajars.
"Hey Bhogilal," Prafulla slammed her head on the car, "ye wapas, ek baar ka drishya kam tha. Kya kya dekhna padta hai iss umar mein..." She ranted and Shiva broke the kiss, turning to face her.
"Ey Maami, sone ke kangan ready rakh apne jamai ke liye," He pointed his finger at her, " aur adaat daal le iski."
Prafulla tsked, holding her precious bangles and sat back in the car and Shiva faced Raavi, pulled the dupatta on their heads as they kissed again.
They broke their kiss and laughed, under the shade of the dupatta, practically hugging each other.
"Tujhe jitna time lena hai, tu le Raavi. Tujhe main kabhi force nahi karunga, ye rishta waise hi chalega jaise tu chahti hai. Bas tu Raavi 1.0 ho jaa."
Raavi smiled, teary eyed at his comforting words, "main Raavi 1.0 wapas kabhi nahi ban sakti Shiva. Woh Raavi mar chuki hai," She said, holding his face in her hands, "par main Raavi 2.0 hu, jisse Shiva 2.0 pyaar karta hai aur main jaisi hu, khush hu."
"Tera Shiva Somnath mein tera intezaar karega, hamesha." He kissed her hand, "Saaru?"
Raavi smiled, melting in his arms, "Saaru."
And they parted ways, with a promise to continue their tale, the story of little Raavi and Shiva who had unknowingly, started the most beautiful love story in Somnath.
Raavi may have left the town, but she would always remain in his heart.
And he knew, that come what may, this one week was something he would never forget.
"Saste Romeo, abh ghar chale?"
"Tu kuch zyada nahi bolta aaj kal?" Shiva said, as he strangled Krish.
"Shiva chod de, warna Bhabhi aur maa ko dupatta ke andar wali baat bolunga!"
Shiva left him immediately, forcing a smile on his face and pulling Krish's cheek, "tu toh mera pyara Bhai hai, na?" He said, "aur phir tujhe cigarette wale kand se maine bachaya tha?"
"Theek hai," Krish smiled, as they sat on the bike. "Aapke liye nahi, Raavi Bhabhi ke liye karunga."
Raavi
Just the name was enough to bring a smile on his face.
This Maami ki Behen ki Beti would one day be the death of him.
The End
A/N
Thank you for everything. This has been a sweet journey.
Cannot believe I had pledged to not write another fanfictions but blame the VMs I found on youtube and I instantly fell in love with the edits. I had already watched all episodes of Pandya store but those VMS made me write a story.
It was supposed to be an OS, based on the song Tu Hi Yaar Mera, and that OS for supposed to be a short story of 7 chapters, each for one day but I got so involved and especially the support on the forum, it made me wanna keep exploring and writing and here we are, 21 amazing chapters.
Thank you, to each of you who read and reacted, special thanks to those who took time to appreciate by commenting their views and kept backing this writer.
Maami ki Behen ki Beti will always be my sweet story, where I can go back and find my messed up self in Raavi and the fighter in me, in Shiva. May you all find a Shiva in your lives, maybe be a Shiva to someone.
Coming to further ShiVi stories, I do not write different stories for the same fandom. It spoils my idea of having an ultimate story for them so NO, I WILL NOT WRITE MORE SHIVI STORIES.
But for sure, some bonuses for this one, additional chapters in the future if in case I feel the need to write. But other than that, nothing. Do tag me in your SHIVI stories, would love to read more on them.
Thanks to Alice and KD too, and of course Pandya Store as a show because I genuinely loved having a family based drama and it was once a very wholesome show.
P s. I will reply to each comment dropped in this last chapter
P. P. S. THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN!
Too tired for tags, so will do them tomorrow.
It's over. 😒
But it was such a lovely, bittersweet ending. Dil ko rona bhi hai aur hasna bhi. ❤️
Poor Raavi wants to make sure of her feelings, but Shiva and his anger. Uff! But then he gave her the dupatta!! And then they kissed again in front of everyone! 🤣
I both, love & hate, that you ended it this way but there is something so incredibly sweet about it, the heart sighs.
I loved all of it!!
Thank you for the wonderful journey!! ❤️
Its over 😭
It is one beautiful journey of Raavi and Shiva.😊
I truley connected to both because of them being realistic and I have fallen in love with them as Journey of Shiva realising his love and Raavi overcoming the grief started...
It was one faboulus story ❤️❤️
Loved it😍❤
Ps - Will wait eagerly for bonus and additional chapters ❤❤❤
I m so so sorry for not been able to comment on chapter 20 but gonna put my emotions for last 2 chapters togther

"Haan, I know, par main ek jagah hamesha rahungi, aur tu nikaal nahi sakta."
