After sangeet function, Raman had already left for home while rest of the family along with Ishita, mihir and Raghu uncle came later. Romi went directly to Raman's room for some work. All were going to their rooms to take rest when Romi came out and informed that Raman is not in his room. He called on his mobile but none picked the calls. Romi asked the guard only to get to know that Raman had come back already. Mrs Bhalla sent Simmi to her room to take rest as next day is her big day while started searching for Raman. Seniors were searching him downstairs and calling him while Juniors were searching him upstairs. Ishita was passing the stairs and heard some noise from terrace. She went on terrace along with Mihir. Both followed the noises and finally saw Raman sitting in a corner, drinking and speaking to himself. He was heavily drunken. Ishita told Mihir to call Romi so that they can take him downstairs as he is not in his senses. Mihir went and Ishita moved towards Raman where he was talking to himself. She was understanding anything so tried to talk to him.
I Mr Bhalla, what are you doing here and why are you drinking like this? Mr Bhalla.
Raman looked at her for sometime them again started drinking. She again tried to talk to him but he was not answering, finally she shook him and he looked at her, he touch her hand and said,
R Tum to sach mein ho yahan, mujhe laga main sapna dekh rha hu. Tum yahan kya kar rhi ho?
I ulta chor kotwaal ko daante. Khud yahan nashe mein dhut pada hai aur mujhse pooch rha hai kya kar rhi hu. Get up Mr Bhalla.
She says trying to make him stand but he was not getting up but drinking talking to himself only. Romi and Mihir came and they tried to make him stand but he was making it difficult. Ishita took his bottle from his hand and asked him to get up if he wants the bottle. Somehow trio managed to take him downstairs. His parents saw him and Mr Bhalla scolded him while Mrs Bhalla said that his friends must have made him drink this much. All left while Romi, mihir and Ishita took him to his room. They made him lay on bed but he was just asking to give the bottle from Ishita. Ishita sent Romi and Mihir and was about to go without giving him bottle but he stopped her by holding the edge of her dupatta and asked for bottle.
I Aaj ke liye itna kafi hai. Chup chap so jaao abhi. Sharm nhi aati, kal bahan ki shadi hai aur khud ko hosh hi nhi hai
R Mujhe meri bottle do varna..
I Varna kya?
He didn't leave her dupatta and sat on bed somehow. He snatched the bottle from her hand and placed it on floor and said,
R Tumne samajh ke kya rakha hai khud ko. Hoti kon ho mujhe order dene wali.
He was trying to stand while Ishita tried to loose his hold on her and in the process, both fall on his bed. She was over him. She was trying to get up but he hold her tightly and said,
R Main kabse tumhe kuch bolna Chahta tha par bol hi nhi paya. Ab bol du??
I Kya?
R Yahi ki tum bhot achi ho, vo Simmi ne kaha tha na, beauty with brain, vahi ho tum. Aur aaj to kahar tha rhi ho, ek dum pataka lag rhi ho. You are too beautiful, jaise banane wale ne badi hi fursat se banaya ho.
He said looking in her eyes while she was also looking at him. Raman was about to kiss her hand but she withdrew her hand and stood up from him calling him "badtameez sharabi while Raman was still lying and hold her hand again saying,
R Yeh tere Ishq mein sharabi ban gaye zaalima, varna aadhi hum bhi bhot kam ke the. Tum se ek bat bolu?
I Koi jarurat nhi hai. Pta nhi nashe mein kya kya bole jaa rhe ho. Chup chap so jaao, ab jo bolna hai na vo subah bolna.
R Hey please please please. ... subah tak nasha bhi utar jaayega aur tumse bolne ki himmat bhi. You know tumhe dekhte hi sab bhool jaata hu aur tum jo khadoos banke rehti ho to koi kaise aisi bat karega.
Ishita signed him to continue,
R- Thank you, you are so sweet. Actually mujhe kehna tha ki... ki... main... tumse...main tumse bhot ... bhot bhot jyada wala... ek dum jyada wala pyaar karta hu...
He completed with great difficulty and slept with a sweet smile holding her hand close to his heart while Ishita was shocked and surprised with his confession. He didn't mention the name, Shagun or Ishita but it was clear from his talk that he was talking about her only but why, and how???? She somehow managed to release his hold and making him sleep comfortably, she left from there...
Next morning, Raman woke up when Mr Bhalla threw water on him. He gave him angry looks and told him to get up fast while he woke up with heavy headache. He went out after sometime only to get angry looks from everyone making him confused first, then he tried to remember and everything came into his mind till he came back home and started drinking but didn't remember after that. He apologised to his parents for last night and soon all were busy for haldi function. Raman didn't get time for hearing how he came back to his room last night.
Haldi function also ended happily with lots of masti and some emotional moments while preparations for the night started. Whole day Shagun was not there and even no one was concerned about it too but Mrs Bhalla once asked to Raman and he answered that she was some work so will not be there today. Soon it was time for marriage. Simmi was fully ready while Groom also came on time. Bhallas welcomed them warmly and with some masti. Adhiraj was made to sit on the chair on stage while Ishita and Rinki brought Simmi also. Soon the marriage ceremony also got completed with all rituals and Simmi left with her husband, Adhiraj after an emotional Vidaai ceremony and giving lots of instructions to her parents as well as her siblings. Whole day was a hectic for all, Raman also, but he didn't leave the chance whenever possible and admired Ishita also in between. That day also Iyers stayed at Bhalla house but Ishita went with Sinhas as adhiraj and her mother asked her to join them now as Adhiraj's friend cum sister. Bhallas were missing Simmi badly. At the other side, Simmi got a warm welcome by her in laws, she was also missing her family but soon got busy with different rituals.
Next day, Simmi went to Bhalla house as per the ritual after performing few more rituals at Sinha house. Bhallas welcomed Simmi and Adhiraj happily and all spent a good time together while Iyers somehow managed Bhallas and left to their house till evening. That day, a reception was arranged in evening along with Raman's engagement. Everyone were just talking about reception only as no one was interested in it but Mr Bhalla brought out this topic as they didn't see Shagun and her mother after Sangeet ceremony. All asked Raman and finally Raman disclosed that there will be no engagement in evening making everyone shocked. Mr Bhalla was very angry on him while Raman said that he don't want to marry Shagun anymore and he had cancelled the marriage with her. Mr Bhalla scolded him for his irresponsible behaviour, first he wanted to marry that girl when all were not happy and now when everything is ready for their engagement, specially their relatives and most of the business world want to know the bride of Raman Kumar Bhalla, here he had cancelled the marriage without even informing his own parents, forget about discussing with them. Simmi and Adhiraj somehow tried to handle the situation and calmed down Mr Bhalla while Raman apologised to his parents and took the responsibility to handle the relatives and guests tonight. Mr Bhalla left from there warning him to do whatever he want with his life but don't try to spoil the day of his daughter. Simmi tried to ask the reason but he said we will discuss later and asked all to relax.
It was evening, reception function started. All relatives and guests came. Raghu uncle, Ishita and Mihir also came there directly from home. All were busy in wishing the newly wedded couple. Raman, Romi and Rinki were supposed to give a gift to Simmi together but Rinki was missing. Raman, Romi and ishita started searching first her and finally they spotted Rinki in parking area along with Mihir. Raman got angry seeing the scene in front of him, Mihir was holding her Rinki, it was looking like he is holding her forcefully. Raman reached them angrily and without knowing the situation he hold Mihir by his collar and talked angrily. Romi hold Rinki, she was trying to say something but Raman was not listening and was about to slap Mihir only to be stopped by Ishita who got angry on Raman for his rash behaviour.
I (warning him angrily) Mihir bhai hai mera, usse par hath uthaane se pahle so bar soch lena, Mr Bhalla, varna mujhse bura koi nhi hoga.
R (angrily) Are you for real? Didn't you see? You are supporting him after seeing with your own eyes. Itna trust hai us par?
I (shouting back) Yes I trust my brother more than me. He can't even think something wrong, forget to do. And you just saw and assumed on your own, did you ask your own sister. Did you try to hear her what she is trying to tell you?
She said showing her hand towards Rinki while Raman looked at Rinki for asking but saw her nodding her head in a no making him guilty. Ishita calmed Rinki and asked her to which she replied that it was misunderstanding and all what happened (I don't want to stretch it more). Raman apologised to Mihir and Ishita both.
I Sometimes we should think and work using our mind also not only heart.
She said and went from there taking Mihir. All composed themselves and left from there. They gave gift to Simmi and Ishita and Mihir too came composing themselves and congratulated them by giving gift and a bouquet. After that none saw Ishita and Mihir, Raghu uncle informed that Mihir had to go out of city for some work so he must have left and ishita must be here only. It was time for Raman to announce about his engagement. He declared that he is not getting engaged right now due to some personal problems making all gossiping. Soon the reception got over but Ishita was no where to be seen. All tried to search her but didn't get her while her mobile phone was switched off. Raghu uncle called at Iyer house but she didn't reach there...
