Hello everyone. I am starting new thread and will be updating following parts here because in T2, I will be reply in each one of two and I still have to reply each of you for last two chapters. So i will be doing it there slowly over this weekend.
Finally the day has come. Yes it was the day of Arjun and Sakshi's wedding. Sam and Ayesha have gotten married two days back and everybody had enjoyed so much at the functions whether it was mehndi, sangeet or Raesha's wedding. But there was not even a glimpse of tiredness on anyone's face. They were all so much excited for today's wedding and were looking forward to it too. After completing some pre wedding rituals, Sakshi, Ayesha and Liza all went to parlor to get ready for the wedding.
Arjun was sitting in his room and everybody else was busy with the chores outside. He was glad he was having some time to himself. Today was his wedding day and he and Sakshi will be entering into wedding matrimony. He has so many emotions running inside in his mind right now. Before he could think further, Sam voice interrupted his thoughts.
Sam: Kya Soch raha hai Arjun?
Arjun: Kuch nahin
Sam: Bol nah. I know what you are thinking?
Arjun: (with smile on his face): Tu jaanta hai toh pooch kyun raha hai
Sam: Nervous? Mein bhi tah little bit but trust me you are doing right thing. Sakshi is perfect for you.
Arjun: I know Sam and I am not even nervous either. I am not confused whether Sakshi is perfect for me. I know she is best thing happened to me after all these years. I just wish and hope I keep her happy and provide her all the love, care and protection that she deserves from me.
Sam: I am sure you will Arjun. Sakshi tujh se itni mohabbat karti hai ki even smallest gesture from you will be so big for her but you are right, give her all the happiness in the world Arjun and you will see she will fill your world with double happiness and love.
Arjun cannot help but smile.
Sam: Hass kyun raha hai saale.
Arjun: Soch raha hoon ki shaadi ke do din meh hi ETF ka chief kafi romantic ho gaya hai.
Sam: Hehehe..Koi nahin bache, tujhe deko ga mein. But jokes apart, I am so happy for you Arjun.
With that both friends hugged.

Then baraat left for the venue.
Chotu, Ayesha, Sam, Shree and Liza all danced so much in the baraat and later when baraat was near the venue, Ayesha and Liza went little earlier in order to welcome Arjun and everyone from Sakshi's side.
All the girls had already tied the ribbon on the entrance and were waiting for Arjun to do the ribbon cutting ceremony.
Arjun and rest of the baraat reached the venue and then Ayesha and Liza demanded "nek" from Arjun before they can allow him to cut the ribbon and let him enter inside the venue. Sam, Shree and Chotu tried to argue but Sam was very silenced by his newly wedded wife and Chotu and Shree had no chances in front of Liza too.
Arjun: Kya Sam tu Ayesha bhabhi ke kehne par chup ho gaya. Teri shaadi mein meine kitna defend and bargain kiya tha.
Sameer: Toh teri kaunsi chali thi, Sakshi ke samne.
Everybody laughed listening to both the friends.
Ayesha: Chaliye Chaliye Arjun jijaji, jaldi se paise nikaliye agar aaj apne apni dulhan ko dekhna hai.
Arjun had to give up and gave the "nek" to Ayesha and Liza and finally he cut the ribbon and Ayesha made him eat the sweet and finally all the baraat entered the venue.
Arjun was made to sit on the stage and now it was time to bring the bride. Arjun was eagerly waiting to see Sakshi as his bride.
Ayesha and Liza went to bring Sakshi out in the marriage hall.
Sakshi entered the hall with Ayesha and Liza and all eyes were on her. She was looking absolutely breath taking in the bridal lehnga.
Arjun saw and could not take just eyes off from her. Her eyes were lowered and she was taking small steps to come to the stage. He cannot believe this is his Miss Publicist, so women like and so elegant. A small smile came on his face. He still remembered one day, this very girl came to his cabin without knocking and introduced herself with full on excitement and big smile as Mein Sakshi ..Sakshi Anand aur aap Arjun Rawte and then held her hand out and did not even take it back without shaking. He saw the spark that very day too but chose to ignore it.
That was one hell of introduction and that too with ACP Arjun Rawte and after that he had so many nok jhoks with this very girl. He tried different ways to keep her away from him but she did not flinch. She liked irritating me and I did not even realize when in this nok jhok, I fell for this crazy, chirpy and innocent Miss Publicist. There was a time I wanted to throw her out of my life and here is today when she is walking to stay permanently in my life. Aaj woh mere taraf meri dulhan ban kar aa rahi hai and I must say she is looking so radiant and extremely gorgeous as my bride. Never expected that God had these plans for me but honestly I will thank him for giving me happiness and life back in the form of Sakshi.
Sakshi reached the stage and Arjun extended his hand and she put her hand in his and climbed on to the stage.
Her eyes were still lowered and she even havenot gotten a glimpse of her handsome husband to be. Ayesha had clearly instructed her to behave a like perfect bride and women today and don't do any masti.
Ayesha neared her and spoke in her ear. Are madam ek baar nazar uta kar dek toh le Arjun sir ko. He is looking so handsome. Immediately blush came on her face. She lifted her eyes and her eyes fell on the man standing in front of her looking absolutely and devily handsome. When she met this very man first day, she saw lot of hidden pain in his eyes but today she sees lot of love and admiration in his eyes. She never thought in million years that she will see this day especially after the incident with her family. She joined ETF in order to get justice for her family and also maybe to find some peace too but she never thought she will be also able to find and experience the most beautiful and magical feeling - "LOVE". She never realized when she falls in love with this Kadoos Arjun Rawte but she is so glad she did. Today is the most special, precious and important day of her life as she will be becoming Sakshi Arjun Rawte and finally she will finally become his.
Ayesha brought her back from thoughts when she handed her the garland and told her it was time to exchange garlands. She again looked towards Arjun and as if he was reading her face all through her thought process. He had small smile on his face and offcourse the devilish smirk too but he nodded through his eyes as if saying you are right. The time has come for us to start our new journey and she could not help but blush and admire this man.
Finally Arjun and Sakshi exchanged garlands with each other and now it was time to complete other wedding rituals.
Arjun and Sakshi were made to sit in the mandap.

Pandit ji lit the fire in the havan kund and start the wedding rituals with the mantras. After a while he asked who will be performing the kanyadaan.
Ankhiyan Milaike Channa
Aavi Na Judai Veee
Ankhiyan Milaike Channa
Aavi Na Judai Veee
Deve naa tari menu saree khudai we
Akhiyan milake
Sakshi looked towards Sameer and nodded and Sameer and Ayesha came forward to perform the kanyadaan rasam.
Sameer finally put the hand of Sakshi in Arjun's hand and gave her to him for forever.
It is said that the kanyadaan ceremony is the biggest rasam according to hindu religion and Sameer felt so proud and peaceful after doing this ceremony. He was so glad Sakshi gave him this opportunity and he was able to fulfill duties towards Sakshi as her brother. Liza came forward to do ghat bandhan of Arjun and Sakshi.
Panditji were chanting further mantras and then asked Sakshi and Arjun to stand up for the pheras. Arjun held her hand when they stood up to take the pheras.
Tare hai barati chandani hai yeh barat
Saato phere honge abb haato me leke hath - (2)
Jivan sathee ham diya aur bati ham
Jivan sathee ham diya aur bai ham
Sakshi and Arjun were taking phere and everybody were showering flower petals on the couple
Tare hai barati chandani hai yeh barat
Saato phere honge abb haato me leke hath - (2)
Jivan sathee ham diya aur bati ham
Jivan sathee ham diya aur bai ham
After the pheras were done, the couple again sat in the mandap and now it was time for couple to take "7 Kasams". Basically the pandit ji made seven small puddles of rice and each time, couple takes the vow, Arjun will put his feet on one puddle.
The kasams were recited by pandit ji and the couple will agree to it .
Ganga jamuna se bhee pawan teraa meraa bandhan
Teraa prem hai phulvari aur meraa mann hai aangan

The vow taking ceremony was over and panditji asked Arjun to fill the maang of Sakshi with sindoor. Arjun filled Sakshi's maang with sindoor.
Too hai jivan me jo pritam sukh nahee mangu duja
Aarti nayno se karti hu mann se teree puja
Me toh dharm hee samjhun teree kahee hui har bat
Saato phere honge abb haato me leke hath
Jivan sathee ham diya aur bati ham - (2)
Finally Arjun tied the mangalsutra around Sakshi's neck and panditji announce them that all the marriage rituals are done and they are finally man and wife. Everybody clapped and again showered them with flower petals.
Arjun and Sakshi got up from mandap and took the aashirwaad of elders and then hugged Sameer and Ayesha. Finally Sakshi and Arjun came to Shree, Liza and chotu. Shree hugged Sakshi and whispered in her ear.
Shree: Finally tu Mrs. Akdu Kadoos Rawte ban hi gayi.
Sakshi smiled hearing him and nodded.
Then she hugged chotu and Liza and also Arjun hugged rest of team too.
Liza and Ayesha took money for shoes.
Finally all the team clicked pictures with the couple.
