Part1: Aaryyan saves a girl, a cottage of dwarfs
Aaryyan rides on and on, and then he stops at a place. He feeds his horse some grass, pats it, and then himself sits under a tree, tired. He was resting and may be taking a nap when a girl's shrieks "Help! Help!" wakes him up
Aaryyan jumps off and rushes.
He sees four soldiers, whose faces are covered with clothes, drag up a girl. She is screaming with all her might for help and so Aaryyan runs off for help.
Even as he starts fighting with them, they manage to throw her off the cliff and she hangs on to its side dangerously. With his life at stake Aaryyan fights those men and try to pull the girl up at the same time.
Finally he does pull her up and kills two of the men.
The other two escape.
The girl looks at Aaryyan and in a process of saying thanks to him faints in his arm.
Aaryyan is in double trouble. He thinks: oh God! What shall I do now; I cannot take her along in my mission. Neither can I leave her like this, she is ill and she has come to be my responsibility. I cannot just leave her like this.
He picks her up and takes her down to the cottage near which his horse was tied. There was no one there at that time; Aaryyan enters through the small door.
He is surprised to find that the house is furnished with small furniture like that of dwarfs. The setting is just like the house of seven dwarfs.
He gets into a room and finds seven small beds prepared. He lays her in one bed and then arranges for a chair to rest her feet.
He gets into the dining room, sits on a tiny chair and thinks: thank God there is food to eat.
He finishes all the food there.
[Ani was looking cho sweet really! Just like snow white would have done had she been a male]
Then he sees a pale of water and thanks god for that, he drinks and then also gives water to his horse.
Now he thinks: I can not even leave her like this, I will have to wait till she regains her conscious ness.
The seven dwarfs come, they see the horse and wonder what a big animal, and they gradually enter the cottage.
They find doors open and an unknown stranger is happily sleeping inside. True Aaryyan was sleeping making their dining table a nice big bed [again I think ani was superb here]
They scream. Their scream awakens Aaryyan an they aim him with their little swords.
Aaryyan first looks up and just as he lifts his sword, the dwarfs run away
A: fear not! I will not harm you people. I m a prince; my name Aaryyan, Raajkumar Aaryyan.
A dwarf shouts: so you are the one who ate all our food
A: sorry, very sorry, I am from a long journey and I was really hungry, when I came in here no one was here so I took the food. Please forgive me.
He was surrounded by 6 dwarfs and the seventh was not there.
Suddenly they hear a big shocking scream (like something a girl will do if she finds a boy in a ladies hostel corridor) they find the girl screaming with all her might and the 7th dwarf aiming his blunt knife at her.
They blast in
A: shut up! You shout more than these dwarfs (well spoken) who are you and where from have you come.
Girl: I am pari, princess pari. My mother is dead and my step mother rules. My father is ill. My step mom cannot stand me. She sent me to get some medicinal shrubs for my fathers healing and suddenly the soldiers came and attacked me. They were about to kill me when this brave man came and saved me
The dwarfs sympathize with this cute little princess.
P: I am so worried for my father. I cannot return to the palace, else she will kill me. but I am so worried for my father, where is he, how is he.
She starts crying. Will you people help me?
Aaryyan was standing, now he kneels down and says: off course we will save help you princess to go back to your father. Friends wont we?
The dwarfs promise in unison, yes off course we will.
In the palace, the evil looks at the crown the king presented her. It has the RUDRAMANI on it. She mocks at the king being such a fool, that she wants only power and wealth. Her magic mirror laughs at her. She is angry.
Just then the guards return. They present her with the fake heart of an animal and say here is the heart of the princess. We brought it for you.
The queen happily asks the mirror: mirror mirror on the wall, tell me who I the most beautiful of all?
The mirror says the princes.
The queen gets very angry at the soldiers for lying to her. She takes her magic wand and turns them to goats
[areey yaar, she got it from her ancestor who the evil step mother of snow white, same thing LOL]
