Siddhant was very shocked to hear this.
Siddhant: What my marriage?
Nirmala: Yes Siddhant. Roli is waiting for you these many years. Its right time for your marriage.
Siddhant: What grand ma, i dont believe in all these marriage systems.
Nirmala was surprised to hear.
Nirmala: What are you telling Siddhant?
Rajender: Maaji, just give us time. We will talk to Siddhant.
Rajender took Siddhant to his room.
Siddhant: Dad, what is she telling? How can i marry some village girl.
Rajender & Sujatha was shocked to hear this.
Rajender: SIddhant what are you talking. Roli is already engaged to you.
Siddhant: Already engaged? When?
Sujatha: Siddhant, you were engaged before going to US.
Siddhant: Oh my god. What are you telling Mom? I was very small when we went to US. How can you decide my marriage in that age itself. Dont be silly.
Rajender: Siddhant, dont tell like that. Maaji will die if she hear this. She was not even ready to send us US. She accepted only after your engagement happend with Roli.
Siddhant: Oh God. I dont know how to make you understand. How you all can decide my marriage? That too not even when I was matured enough to understand what it is?
Sujatha: Siddhant for our family sake & my sake, you please accept for this marriage. Anyway you need to marry someone on some day. Why not ROli as per our wish?
Siddhant: I hate all these emotional black mails. That is the reason I never got interested to come here.
Rajender: Siddhant, Please for our family you need to do this. We beg you. We cant face our mother if you deny for this.
Siddhant: But dad how can I play with my life for you all sake.
Rajender: What is less in Roli? She is like a princess. She is indian cultured. She will be your right life partner.
Sujatha: Yes Siddhant. Please accept this.
After so many hours of argument, Siddhant finally accepted for sake of his family.
Gauri restricted Roli to go to Nirmala's house as tomorrow being their marriage & she need to go to that house after completion of marriage. Otherwise villagers will tell something that ROli going to meet Siddhant before marriage. So Roli was eagerly waiting the next day.
The night was sleepless night to both Siddhant & Roli.
Siddhant was sleepless as he was very uncomfortable, uneasy about all these happenings while Roli was sleepless feeling happy about her marriage.
Roli's happiness was seen through her face shinning.
The Marriage day.
Roli was well dressed up with traditional ornaments in the silk saree. She was looking like a princess. Nirmala herself was astonished by Roli's beauty.
No one can tell whether the jewelleries & silk saree is giving beauty to ROli or Roli giving beauty to the ornaments.
Siddhant was very uneasy with the silk dhoti. He was hating the sweating, the smoke and was sitting in the mandap.
Roli forward her steps towards mandap eagerly.
Roli's cheeks were pink due to shyness.
Her smile was increasing her beauty.
All the persons who came for the wedding was looking at Roli speechless by her beauty.
Roli sat next to Siddhant.
Siddhant not even looked towards her in the irritation created by the atmosphere.
Roli by her corner eyes looked at Siddhant & blushed.
With all the blessings of elders, relatives & friends and with the chanting of mantras by the pandit, Siddhant put the mangal sutra on Roli's beautiful neck and filled her forehead with Sindoor.
The rain of flowers were showered to bless this beautiful couples.

The procedure of marriages like chanting mantras, putting ring in the finger of feet of ROli, Pheres everything were done one by one.
Siddhant was feeling very tired and was waiting when he can go to take some rest.
Roli was enjoying each & every procedure with a smile.
The marriage was completed in a grand manner.
The couples sat down to have their lunch together.
Nirmala: Siddhant, give that sweet from your plate to her.
Siddhant: What grand ma, it is not hygienic to feed my food to her.
Nirmala: But that is the practice that husband & wife feed each other food.
Siddhant: Ok. I will give her as you said if she wants. But i dont take her food for sure.
Siddhant forward his hands with the sweet towards her.
Roli ate that sweet happily while Siddhant was not ready to even try to do that.
Lunch was finished. All relatives started leaving.
Siddhant: I am going to take rest. I am feeling tired.
Siddhant rushed towards his room.
Roli face was upset as well as Nirmala was looking puzzled.
Rajender: Maaji, actually due to time difference between US & India is the problem. We only came yesterday he has not slept properly due to jet lock. Let him take rest. he will be alright.
Roli smiled.
Siddhat inside his room.
Siddhant was thinking oh god what all procedures, what all people. I dont like anything. See that girl, wont she feel sweating wearing big saree, jewelleries, hair full of flowers. Oh god.
Siddhant & Roli have not even looked at each other yet.
