Now that Sujatha knows about these two, how will she take it forward.. please write a scene.
Sujata takes Urmi's hand and puts it on her head..and says.."Urmi mere sar par haath rakh kar bol………kya tu aur Sandeep….." she doesn't finish the sentence, but is holding Urmi's hand on her head…Urmi can't say anything..she nods almost imperceptibly…and then can't meet Sujata's eyes..Sujata is shocked..angry..She lets go of Urmi's hand..shakes her head..
She's thinking "itna hua aur mujhe kuch pata nahi chala, maine kuch mehsoos bhi nahi kiya..Didi ne sahi baat kehdi, maine apni beti ko bahut azaadi di..bahut bharosa kiya, main to soch bhi nahi saktithi ke Urmi mere vishwas ka faida uthayegi"
…Aur Sandeep? Urmi se badhkar uspe barosa tha.. usne to har baar hamara saath diya, kaar mushkil mein saab uske paas hi jata hai. Itna samajdari thi usme, saab haalat ko sambhaalne ki umeed karte hai usse hum saab. Urmi bhi Sandeep se haar bat karti rahi..bemaar hoti thi to Sandeep ko bulana padta tha. Jab Akilesh ne mandir mein Urmi ke saath wo beizzati ki, to Sandeep ne usse yaha se bhagayatha..Urmi jab hospital mein thi tab bhi who Sandeep ko bula rahi thi..Urmi ne to bahut pehle se saab kaam Sandeep se kehkar kiya hai."
Suddenly she stops. Looks at Urmi who's stood there with her head down, tears streaming down her face. Sujata sees flashbacks..she remembers Sandeep telling Akilesh & his parents how Urmi doesn't know anything, no cooking sewing etc but having known her from childhood he knows she has never hurt anyone's heart..how she respects everyone. She remembers Sandeep bhagao'ing Akilesh after he refused to marry Urmi..how Urmi was sobbing..and then sees Urmi running to Sandeep and Sandeep consoling her…the scene cuts to the hospital when Sandeep got there after the operation..how heraan he looked…how worried he was about Urmi..and how Urmi had been asking for him repeatedly..she remembers Urmi's birthday where Urmi refused to cut the cake until Sandeep showed up..and Diwali when Urmi had gone to Sandeep's to light up the house with diyas.. and how she went straight there with the pooja thali
And suddenly Sujata gets it. She thinks "Urmi to kabse Sandeep ko chahtihai..usne to bahut pehle se Sandeep ko apne dil me bitha diya hai. Maine socha tha ke wo Urmi ka bachpana tha… wo bachpana pyar mein kabh badla pata bhi nahi chala. Is liye urmi muh latka ke phir rahithi jab Sandeep ki sagai ki baat chali thi." And she flashbacks to the day after the confession when Urmi is happier than happy…and she thinks " Sandeep ki sagai toot gayi thi..tab bhi Urmi gusse me thi..lekin Republic day ke bad Urmi kitni kush thi..kahi aisa to nahi ke Sandeep ne khud sagai todi ho? Kahi Urmi sagai tootne ki vaja to nahi? Pata lagana padega mujko."
She looks at Urmi, who's still crying..but now she's looking at Sujata, pleading with her silently..Sujata says "Urmi, yeh saab thik nahi hua. Aisa nahi hona chahiyetha. Tumhare papa..usko me kaise yeh saab bataungi?" Urmi says "mummy.." and before she can finish, Rasik comes in, and starts talking about how "uske pet me haathi dod rahe hai, kana lagado.."
Sujata says " Urmi, tumhare papa ko khana lagado. Main abhi aiyi". And walks out. Rasik is staring after her.."Sujata..tum kaha ja rahi ho? Sujata…" but Sujata is already gone. Urmi is worried..Rasik is clueless, mutttering "aaj kaal saab ko ho kya gaya hai? Pehle market me bhejdiya..phir khud chaligayi, bataya bhi nahi..koi mujhe kuch nati batata..Urmi, jaldi kar. Mane bhuk lagi chche. Tari mummy ne kabarnayi shu thayu chche…"
Sujata goes to Sandeep's. Door is open, she walks in. Sandeep is sat at the computer..he jumps out of his seat as soon as she walks in.."Aunty, aap yaha? Mujhe bulaya hota, main aajata"..Sujata doesn't let him finish his sentence, lifts her hand up and says "bas Sandeep. Bas. Aab to main jo sawal karu uska jawab de bas…. Tumhari sagai Vasudha ke saath kyun tooti?"
Sandeep goes red to the core…(he could barely tell Urmi, how is he going to tell her mother??) he realises that the time has come..takes a deep breath and says "kyunke mujhe tab ehsaas hua tha ke me shaadi kisi aur se nahi karpaunga."
Sujata says" kisi aur se? Kya matlab?" (like mother like daughter!)
Sandy "aunty..main jaanta hu ab mere baare me kya sochte honge..lekin main aapko kehna chahta hu ke mere aur Urmi ke bich mein koi aise baat nahi hui jisse hum ya aap sharminde honge. Pata bhi nahi chala kab mein Urmi se pyar karne laga. Lekin pyar karta hu. Maine socha tha ke babuji aapse aur Rasik uncle se baat kare, lekin Urmi…"
Sujata stops him again.." Sandeep, maine tujse yeh sawal nahi poochatha. Tu Urmi se pyar karta hai?"
Sandy - "ji"
Sujata - "Ek baat bata. Maine to hamesha sochatha ke tum bahut samajdar ho. Urmi to hai aisi, uska bachpana aap tak…lekin tumne ye nahi socha ke agar lok jo pata chalgaya, to kaisi bate hogi, log kya sochenge? Tumhare baare mein, Urmi ke baare mein..mere aur Urmi ke papa ke baare me? Kaisi baate sunni padegi humko? Yeh tumne thik nahi kiya Sandeep. Tumse ye umeed nahi thi."
Sandeep says, "Aunty..main jaanta hu jo hua wo nahi hona chahiyetha. Holi ki raat ke liye main bahut sharminda hu..saab galti meri thi…Sujata tries to interrupt, says, "Urmi ne mujhe bhaang ke baare me batadiya hai.." Sandeep listens, but says, "phir bhi galti meri thi. Mujhe aana chaiyetha aapke paas. Lekin jo hogaya usko to hum nahi badal sakta, jitna bhi chahe. Lekin ek aur baat hai jo nahi badlegi..mein Urmi se bahut pyar karta hu. Shaadi karna chahta hu. Babuji aanewale hai aap aur Rasik uncle se milne kal raat, mera rishta leke. Mujhe log ki koi parwa nahi, mujhe to bas aap aur Babuji ke ashirwaad chahiye..lekin main samajta hu ke log kya sochte honge, usko main sambhalunga. Main yeh bhi jaanta hu ke main ek anaath hu..kuch jyaada nahi hai mere paas..lekin main Urmi ko khush rakhunga..uske aankhon mein aason nahi aane doonga..aur aa bhi gaye to yakin se kehta hu ke wo khushi ke aasoon honge."
Sujata stands there looking at him..into his eyes..she sees his vulnerability..how scared he is of her reaction..but she can't give him an answer to the question she sees in his eyes. She asks "babuji ko pata tha?" Sandy nods yes. She looks at him again, she's lost in thought…she doesn't say anything more, just leaves…
Sandeep is stood in the middle of the room, wondering what just happened (whether it's the mother or the daughter, they both leave him confused)..
