Nandini's P.O.V.

Here, I am dolled up in beautiful wedding attire. Getting married to a man, whom I have never seen. Tears are continuously rolling down my eyes. Sitting in front of the mirror, cursing my destiny but I didn't have any other option as I respect and love my Dadaji the most and never disobeyed him. I have to complete his last wish by getting married to the son of my father's friend MANIK MALHOTRA

Flashback

Nandini just came home after completing her graduation from Canada and to her surprise, she got to know that her Dadaji got a heart attack. for now, he is completely on bed rest. when she got to know this, she hurriedly went to his room

Nandini- Dadaji what happened to you (while crying..)

Dadaji - Baby I am all fit and fine please don't take tension

Nandini-  Yes I saw how fine you are..

Dadaji-  Baby will you complete the last wish of your Dadaji..

Nandini- yes Dadaji I will for sure you just have to order

Dadaji-my dear i want you to get married to out father's friend's son, this is my last wish. Will you fulfill this wish of mine?

AFTER LISTENING DADAJI'S WISH NANDINI GOT NUMB AND EXPRESSIONLESS FOR A MOMENT. SHE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO REACT ON DADAJI'S WISH . SHE CAME OUT OF HER THOUGHT LISTENING DADAJI'S VOICE

Dadaji- dear dear, where are you lost. I just want you to be married before I die

Nandini- dadaji pls dont talk about death else i wont ever talk to you, par dadaji why this wedding suddenly

Dadaji-my dear i just want to see you getting married, i want to see you happy. I know it sounds awkward suddenly par MANIK is the best you will ever get. Do you trust me?

Nandini- yes Dadaji, I trust you .i will surely fulfill your wish. I LOVE YOU DADAJI

Dadaji- i do too dear . Always be happy, now u should get married as soon as possible as I dont know how many days i have to live ahead. Idea why dont you get married day after tomorrow

Flashback end.....

Knock Knock!!!! There's a Knock on the door

Nandini quickly wipes up her tears and plasters a fake smile. and here comes Nandini's mother Ishita Murthy

She can feel her daughter is going through an emotional turmoil as she is her mother, she moves towards her daughter, caresses her cheeks, and kiss her forehead

Ishita-oh my god!! my daughter is looking so pretty, i know that you are going to start a very important part of your life. you have to be a strong girl. Your life is going to be more beautiful. And id at any moment you feel something is wrong then I am just a call away... best of luck!!!! for your new life... now lets go down everyone are waiting for the bride

Nandini just hugged her maa and starts crying

Nandini- Maa i dont want to go leaving all of you behind

Ishita- but this needs to happen one day or the other na sweetheart, i know that you will have a happily married life, you just have to be strong and smile over all problems

Nandini didn't understand her mother's last line, but she ignored it and broke the hug plastering a fake smile on her pretty face and move downstairs with her mother

Here in the hall everybody is waiting for the bride, it's a small ceremony with only close relatives

As Nandini step in the hall everybody is adoring her like she is the most beautiful bride
THE BRIDE OF A GREEK GOD

MANAN's OUTFIT

But one person is there who is looking at her with so much innocence in his eyes...

Manik-  (Whisper) Nanni mumma... My mumma is sho beautiful just like a princeshh

He is speaking in a way which is inaudible to every one...

Ishita helped Nandini to sit beside Manik in mandap

During the whole marriage, Nandini didn't even take a single glance of Manik, she was just seeing her grandfather and her family who are smiling with happy tears  .. Seeing them she felt relieved

On the other side Manik is just gawking at her, he doesn't know what he is doing... But he is very happy
Nandini is very well aware of his gaze,  but she didn't even dare to look at him

Panditji-  Now the groom will fill the bride's hairline

When Manik takes his hand forward to fill her hairline at the same time she looks up...
That's it....
THERE WORLD STOPPED IN EACH OTHER's EYES

She could only see the innocence in his eyes... The moment pinch of sindoor touched her maang she looked down closing her eyes feeling blessed..

Soon Marriage ritual got over ... The got married to each other
Now she became

After taking blessings from elders and meeting with her family
