Priya POV:
I am assured that Sameer is the perfect partner a woman could possibly dream of. He cares about me so deeply, and he never drinks. He supports me in achieving my goals and has a heart of gold. He cares for Amir and Sruthi and is a fully dedicated father to them. Abbu is highly knowledgeable and well-educated in business, thus he can fix my issues with ease. Ammi used to hate me and refer to me as a village girl, but now I'm her everything. The only conflict in our relationship was that I constantly prayed for him to return without accident. Suddenly, Sameer opens the door and makes an attempt to embrace me from behind. Then, he traps me by placing his hand on the wall. "Mere Sapano ki Rani, tumhaari niraasha bhari abhivyakti ke saath kya ho raha hai? Mera kya? Mujhe aapake saath ek kiss saajha karane ki anumati dijie(The Queen of my Dreams, what's up with your upset expression? What about me? Allow me to share a kiss with you.)" As I pushed him away, I flushed. "Stop it, Sameer. Bachche ise dekhane ja rahe hain(The children are going to see this.)" He responded, laughing, "Unhe apani Mom aur Dad ke beech romance dekhane den(Let them watch the romance between their Mom and Dad.)" He chases me as I make an effort to flee. He reaches for me, trying to draw me in, and I get caught in the drapes. We eventually collapsed into bed, and I smacked him with the pillows. But as soon as we fell on top of one another, we stared at each other. "Mainne tumhe pakad liya hai(I've caught you!)" I swiftly rose and followed the kids as they fled. "Dad is attempting to charm Mom. How adorable!" As Sameer joined us, I gave them a lighthearted shove. "Svaabhaavik roop se, choonki tumhaari Mom meri Rani hai. Haalaanki, vah ek Sherani hai, isalie vah itani jaldi jhukane vaali nahi hai(Naturally, since your mother is my Queen. She is a Sherni, though, so she isn't going to submit so quickly.)" I glared at Sameer as we all laughed out loud. We cuddled up in bed and gave each other embraces. I wished that the moment would never end, but regrettably, I thought about my Trisha. How is Arju doing these days?
Arjun POV:
I regret hurting my Priya's feelings. How am I going to bring her back? I'm in excruciating pain right now, the kind of pain a man can never endure. I wish she were currently living a happier life than I am. I've made up my mind to bring her back in return for my life. I query Papa and Mummy as to her whereabouts. "Beta, vah Kerala mein rahati hai, jo yahaan se bahut door hai. Ghar par rahana hi behatar hai(Son, she lives in Kerala, which is far from here. Better to stay home.)" Regardless of the difficulty or distance I had to travel, I remained steadfast. I was completely halted in my tracks when I got to Kerala for my concert. A middle-aged Muslim girl was strolling around the marketplace. She unexpectedly removed her burqa, revealing something that I had never expected to see. "Please mujhe vah khareedane dijie Sir. Isaki price kya hai(Let me purchase that, sir. What does it cost?)" She gave me a perplexed expression as I grasped her arms. "Ningal aaraanu?Who are you?)" My eyes pricked up with tears as I wondered how she could have forgotten me so soon. "Pru, tum apane pati ke baare mein bhool gai ho. Aap mere saath aisa vyavahaar kaise kar sakate hain(you've forgotten about your husband. How could you treat me like this?)" As she spoke, she gave a headshake. "Pru ennathu ente peralla. Njaan Sameerinte bharya Nora Mirsayaanu. Ninakku enne engane ariyam(Pru is not my name. I'm Nora Mirza, Sameer's wife. How do you know me?)" I couldn't believe I was mistaken. But to Priya, everything appeared to be so alike. I ran across that Nora girl again in the mosque the next day. She was dancing and singing at a girl's wedding with a few other female guests. I watch her silently because it seems as though she is scared of me. Even though she was a middle-aged woman, her attractiveness remained unaffected. She still resembled the girl I pulled from the helicopter that day. Even if I attempt to forget about her, memories suddenly come to mind.
(Kannanale-Bombay)
Priya Outfit:
A man arrived after the dancing and winked at Nora. "Kya performance hai yaar, meri pyaari. Tumane mera dimaag poori tarah se uda diya. Aapake paas bahut hi avishvasaneey dance moves hai(What a performance, yaar, my pyaari. You completely blew my mind away. You have such incredible dance moves.)" She beamed as he gave her a tender kiss. I was secretly feeling jealous or possessive of her since, even if she was Nora, she still resembled my Priya. But back then, I cheated on her frequently, so the poor girl must have felt worse pain than this. I made the decision to say hello to the man. "Asalam Alukum, mujhe vishvaas hai ki aap Sameer Mirza hai. Varshon pahale aapake Dad ko mujhase hamesha bahut samarthan mila tha. Seedhe shabdon mein kahen to, aap log jis tarah se kaam karate hain vah adbhut hai(Hello, I believe you're Sameer Mirza. Your Dad has always had a lot of support from me years ago. Simply put, how you guys operate is amazing.)" "Thank you," Sameer exclaimed as he grinned at me. "Aap vahi Pakistani gaayak hain, Arjun Aziz, hai na? Thodi der rooken. Main tumhen sabase jyaada pyaar karata hoon. Apaki aavaaz adbhut hai(You're that Pakistani singer, Arjun Aziz, right? Hold on a second. I adore you the most. You have a wonderful voice.)" How he recognized me surprised me a lot. "To kya Nora aapaki patni hai(So Nora is your wife?)" He gave her a loving look as he nodded. Once more, I felt envious, but I tried to restrain myself by reminding myself that Priya was not here. "Acha, aapase milakar acha laga(Well, nice to meet you.)" Nora looked disappointed for some reason as we shook hands, but she quickly turned her gaze away. Something doesn't seem right. Why, if Nora wasn't Priya, would she be upset to see me? I ignore any thoughts as I move on.
Priya POV:
As soon as I entered my bedroom again, I broke down in tears because of all the overwhelming feelings. Why was Arjun still an essential part of who I am? Though he has been gone for a long time, I still felt heartbroken when I saw him today since he had seen Sameer. I remind myself that I hate him. My current husband, Sameer, should be the only person I think about, along with my children. "Trishu, tumhaare Papa mujhe itani buri tarah kyon prataadit kar rahe hain? Kaash aap yahaan hote(Why is your Dad torturing me so badly, Trishu? I wish you were here.)" Sameer watches me while I sob. "Priyu. Tumhe apana sanyam punah praapt karana hoga. Choonki saat varshon mein yah pahala kshan hai jab aapane Arjun ko dekha hai, main samajh sakata hoon ki aap kyon pareshaan the. Lekin aapake paas taakat hona chaahiye. Aapaki bhaavanae poori tarah se aapake hi niyantran mein hai. Lekin main tumhaare liye vahaan rahoonga(You must regain your composure. Since this is the first moment you have seen Arjun in seven years, I can see why you were upset. But you must possess strength. Your emotions are entirely within your own control. But I'll be there for you.)" He gives me a hug as I am in despair. I ran into him again the next day. I was about to fall over carrying a basket of flowers to the market. As I turned to see who it was, he suddenly grabbed my hand. "Aru." The moment he heard the name, he felt crushed. "Aakhir aapane yah naam kaise seekha? Woh Dhokhebaaz ne mujhe isi naam se bulaaya tha(How on earth did you learn that name? I was referred to by the same name by the cheat.)" I was so deeply hurt by the way he used to refer to me that I began tears. "Choonki aap Arjun hain, isalie aapako upanaam se bulaane ke liye main kshama chaahata hoon. Tumhe meri bhaavanaon ko thes pahunchaane ki kya zaroorat hai(Since you are Arjun, I apologize for calling you by your nickname. Why do you need to hurt my feelings?)" I sprinted as quickly as I could to a local cafe's restroom. My heart sank so badly that I wanted to start weeping. Even though I was concentrating on Sameer, I still felt a connection to him. Why did life end up being so difficult? I wish I could solve all of my own issues.
Arjun POV:
I'm uncertain what spirit I was under at the moment. Nora, who has no knowledge of my story, was the target of my screams. But because of the betrayal she brought me, I hate Priya with all of my heart. She abandoned me during all these years, giving not even the slightest consideration to my well-being. What would she have done if she had ever loved me? I had just paid off my loans when I got out after an exhausting day at the bank. Just as I entered the elevator to leave, Sameer was beside me. "Hey, Arjun! Tumhe dekhakar bahut acha laga, dost. Aap kaise hain(It's wonderful to see you, Dost. Hello, how are you?)" Even though Sameer had a heart of gold, I was still furious with him for stealing my Priyu. I was so possessive toward her that I couldn't believe it, but then I remembered that she was Nora. I was thinking about two distinct individuals. "Mujhe lagata hai ki cheejen achchhi chal rahi hain. Aapaki patni kaisi hai(I think things are going well. How's your wife doing?)" "Yah apratyaashit hai ki aapako usake baare mein poochhana pada. Unhe haal hi mein Bollywood ke liye Hindustani gaayika ke roop mein kaam karane ka nimantran mila hai, aur main unhe ek aashcharyajanak taareekh par yah khabar sunaane ka iraada rakhata hoon. Mere paas usake liye vishisht yojanaen hain(It's unexpected that you were to ask about her. She recently received an invitation to work as an Indian vocalist for Bollywood, and I intend to break the news to her on a surprise date. I have specific plans in place for her.)" I was amazed to see how attached he has become with his wife and how much he cares for her. I considered what a horrible spouse I had been to Pru. "Yah to adbhut hai, yaar! Vah nishchit roop se romaanchit hogi! Yojana ke liye shubhakaamanaen(That is wonderful, man! She is certain to be thrilled! Good luck with the plan.)" We both went our separate ways after that.
Sameer POV:
I had been going back in order to make sure everything went as planned. My Queen is a true artist! Fortunately, I was able to complete everything before night. I had just suggested meeting at the ballroom of my dad's company. I was astounded by how beautiful she was when I saw her dressed so elegantly. I was still in love with her the way I was when I first glimpsed her. "Sameer! Mujhe aapake liye yah karane ki aavashyakata nahi thi. Aadarsh pati aap hi hai(I didn't need you to do this for me. The perfect husband is you.)" As I gave her cheek a kiss, I beamed. "Aaj ka din mere liye do vishesh kaaranon se yaadagaar din hai. Aaj aapako Bollywood Industry ke liye gaayak banane ke liye kaha gaya hai(Today is a memorable day for me for two special reasons. Today you have been asked to become a vocalist for the Bollywood Industry!)" When Priya heard the news, she was astounded, and a quick smile spread across her face. "Seriously!" She embraced me as I nodded. "Wow, yah ek sapane ka saakaar hona hai! Mujhe nahi pata tha ki kya hone vaala hai(this is the realization of a dream! I had no idea what was to come.)" Her answer puzzled me. "Priyu, aap aise upahaar se dhany hain. Unhonne kaaryakram mein aapaki gaayan kshamata dekhi thi. Tum mujhe bahut gauravaanvit mahasoos karaati ho, meri Sapano ki Rani(You are blessed with such a gift. They had witnessed your singing ability at the event. You make me so proud, my Dream Queen.)" We both laughed as she shoved me. "Doosara kaaran yah hai ki tumhe yaad hai ki main tumase pahali baar usi din pool par mila tha! Hamane kitana avismaraneey samay bitaaya(The other reason is that you recall that I first met you at the pool on the same day! What an unforgettable time we had)!" She gave me a hug while nodding. "Main tumhaare saath har pal ka aanand lena chaahata hoon. Mujhe aashvast karen ki aap yahaan mere saath rahenge(I want to enjoy every second I can with you. Ensure me that you'll be here with me.)" She was so cute, it made me grin. "I promise."
Priya POV:
Considering all the duties I had to complete, the following day was extremely busy and frantic. I had to have my first meeting with the management team and the band I was assigned. One female smirked while rolling her eyes. "Aakhir usake jaisi ladaki mukhy gaayika kaise ban sakati hai? vVh madhyavargeey na hote hue bhi Mumbai mein rahati hai. Kaun jaanata hai ki usaki aavaaz bakavaas hai(How on earth can a girl like her become the lead singer? She resides in Mumbai while not even being middle class. Who knows whether her voice is crap?)" As I glanced down, I was really insulted, but a girl suddenly spoke up for me. "Ise Zip karen. Bas sune aur notes len, Miss. Attitude(Zip it up. Just listen and take notes, Ms. Attitude.)" My eyes started to tear up as I recognized the person. "Kiara!" She grinned as I gave her a hug. "It feels like forever when I last saw you. How did you get here?" "Bhala main Bollywood Industry ke liye apane bestie ki pahali studio upasthiti ko kaise miss kar paata? Hum aapake baare mein behad romaanchit hain. Main aabhaari hoo ki Sameer tum dono ke saath apani patni ki tarah itana acha vyavahaar kar raha hai. Mere liye jagah banaane ke liye Zoya aage ki seat par baithi hai(How on earth would I have missed my bestie's first studio appearance for the Bollywood industry? We're beyond thrilled about you. I'm thankful that Sameer is treating you both so well as his wife. To make room for me, Zoya is sitting in the front seat.)" I grinned and waved back at her. "So how are Raja and Advik doing? And the children." The question makes her break out in laughter. "Har koi acha kar raha hai. Raja mujhase bahut pyaar karata hai, lekin vah thoda sust ho sakata hai isalie mujhe usaka kuch kaam karana padata hai. Vah ek shaanadaar Papa bhi banate hain(Everyone is doing well. Raja loves me a lot, but he can be a little sluggish so I have to do part of his chores. He also makes a fantastic father.)" I was overjoyed for her and wondered quietly why Arjun was never able to gather advice from his pals. As soon as I watched Kiara leave, I shook my thoughts off. "Kshama kare, kya aap apane naam ki pushti kar sakate hain? Yah pravesh se pahale soochanaatmak uddeshyon ke liye hai(Excuse me, could you confirm your name? It is for informational purposes prior to entry.)" I nodded as I made the safety-related decision to give the official name. "Priya Joshi." Once I positioned the studio mike, they invited me to the studio. I stopped and took a deep breath and the band members all began playing their musical instruments. As I started singing, all of my fear vanished. It was smooth and my voice sounded fantastic.

Hindi:
Manzilen ruswaa hain
Khoya hai raasta
Aaye le jaaye
Itni si ilteja
Yeh meri zamanat hai
Tu meri amaanat hai
Haan ...
Mujhko iraade de
Kasme de vaade de
Meri duaon ke isharon ko
Sahare de
Dil ko thikane de
Naye bahane de
Khawbon ki barishon ko
Mausam ke paimane de
Apne karam ki kar adayen
Karde idhar bhi tu nigahen
Sunn raha hai na tu
Roh rahi hoon main
Sunn raha hai na tu
Kyun roh rahi hoon main
Yaaraaa
Waqt bhi tehra hai
Kaise kyun yeh hua
Kaash tu aaise aaye
Jaise koi dua
Tu rooh ki rahat hai
Tu meri ibaadat hai
Apne karam ki kar adayen
Karde idhar bhi tu nigahen
Sunn raha hai na tu
Roh rahi hoon main
Sunn raha hai na tu
Kyun roh rahi hoon main
English:
Destinations are angry
For the path has been lost
Come and take me away
This is all I wish for
This is my path to freedom
You belong to me
Yes ..
Give me intentions
Give me promises
To my signs of my prayer
Give the support
Give shelter to my heart
Give me new excuses
To the rains of dreams
Give a measure of seasons
Do your gracious deeds
Sometimes take a look here too
You're listening right?
I'm crying here
You're listening right?
Why I'm crying here
My friend
Even time has stopped
How and why has this happened
Wish you came in a way
Just like some blessing
You're comfort to my soul
You're my prayer
Do your gracious deeds
Sometimes take a look here too
You're listening right?
I'm crying here
You're listening right?
Why I'm crying here
As I understood that I had performed admirably, the audience cheered. "Wow, Miss Priya Joshi, wow! What an amazing show, and the voice was outstanding. The Bollywood Soundtrack Composers will be given this to polish and fine-tune all the effects. We appreciate you being our star." As I shook hands, I grinned. I was horrified by the person I faced when I exited the stage. "A-Arjun. Aap yahaan hai(You are here.)" He grasped my hand and brought me out of the building. "To, Miss Priya Joshi ya vah mahila jo Nora Mirza hone ka naatak kar rahi hai. Aap best actress hone ke liye Oscar puraskaar paane ki hakadaar hain. Mujhe samajhao ki kya ho raha hai(So, Miss Priya Joshi or the woman who pretending to be Nora Mirza. You deserve to get an Oscar award for being the best actress. Explain to me what is going on.)" I was aware that I would have to explain everything to Arjun at some point, but I never imagined it would take place tonight. Why does life have to be so difficult every day? As tears streamed down my face, I trembled. "Arjun, aapane ateet mein jo kiya use bhoolana bhi asambhav hai. Kya tumhe ehasaas hai ki jab tum sharaab peekar ghar laute aur tumane mujhe doosari ladaki samajh liya to mujhe kitana dukh hua? Ek vivaahit mahila ke roop mein mujhe bahut kuchh sahana pada, jisamen yah bhi shaamil tha ki aapane mere Papa ke saath kaisa durvyavahaar kiya. Tumhaare prati krodh ke kaaran mainne apana priy bachcha kho diya. Aap mere saath aisa vyavahaar kaise kar sakate hain? Sameer ke prati mere pyaar ka adhikatar kaaran yahi hai. Vah kabhi bhi aapake jaisa nahi tha aur na hi kabhi banega. Vah apani patni aur bachcho dono ke prati bahut dayaalu aur nirdosh vyakti hai. Vah ab bhi mujhase utana hi pyaar karata hai, jitana us din karata tha jab vah mujhase pahali baar mila tha. Jab mainne pahali baar tumase pyaar karana shuroo kiya, Arjun, mujhe laga ki main jeevit sabase bhaagyashaali ladaki hoon. Main is baat se aashcharyachakit hoon ki main us samay kitana moorkh tha(what you did in the past is also impossible to forget. Do you realize how hurt I was after you returned home after drinking and mistook me for another girl? I was confronted with a lot as a married lady, including how you mistreated my Dad. I lost my beloved child because of my rage for you. How could you treat me in such a way? This is mostly the cause of my love for Sameer. He has never been and will never be anything like you. He is such a compassionate and innocent man to both his wife and children. He continues to love me just as much as he did the day he first met me. When I first started loving you, Arjun, I thought I was the luckiest girl alive. I'm astonished by how stupid I was back then.)" "Tumane mujhe kabhi samajha hi nahi Priya(You have never understood me Priya)", he said while also wiping away his tears. "Yadi tumane kabhi mujhase pyaar kiya hota, to tumhe meri suraksha ki chinta hoti. Lekin meri peeda ke baavajood, aap apana shesh jeevan jeete rahe, shaadi kar li aur apane jeevanasaathi aur bachcho ke saath hamesha khushi se rahe. Aap aage badh gae, jabaki vaastav mein main nahi aage badha. Yadyapi ladakiyaan sundar theen, phir bhi mainne apane Mom aur Dad ki vinati ke viruddh, vivaah ke prastaavon ko hamesha asveekaar kar diya. Kya aap samajhate hai kyon? Mainne aisa isalie kiya kyonki mujhe ab bhi ummeed thi ki tum mujhase pyaar karate ho aur meri jindagi mein laut aaoge. Lekin mujhe tumase aise dhokhe ki ummeed nahi thi Priya. Is tathy ke baavajood ki tum dhokhebaaz ho, main ab bhi tumase pyaar karata hoon(If you ever loved me, you would be concerned for my safety. But despite my suffering, you carried on with the rest of your life, got married, and lived happily ever after with your spouse and kids. You moved on, whereas I didn't, in fact. Even though the females were beautiful, I always rejected the offers of marriage, against my parents' pleading. Do you understand why? I did it because I still hoped you loved me and would return to my life. But I wasn't expecting such treachery from you, Priya. I still love you despite the fact that you are a cheater.)" I push him away as he tries to give me a hug. "Shaadishuda hone ke baavajood, mainne har din aapake liye praarthana ki aur aapaki chinta ki. Lekin choonki main ab shaadishuda hoon aur mujhe apane bachchon ke saath rahana hai, isalie main tumhen apane jeevan mein vaapas nahi aane de sakata. Mujhe apane parivaar ka khyaal rakhana hai(Regardless of being married, I prayed for you every single day and worried about you. But since I'm now married and I must stay with my kids, I can't let you back into my life. I have to take care of my family.)" He watched as I fled while inconsolable.
