Next morning,
4 a.m.
Scene starts in Rhea's room,
Rhea pulled off her blanket and turned on the lights when someone knocked at the door.
Rhea opened the door and found Siya there.
Rhea: Bhabi...(rubbing her eyes)...aap? Itni subah subah?
Siya: Tumne karwachauth ka vrat rakha hain na? Toh mummy jii ne tumhare liya sargi bheji hain. Kha lo jaldi.
Rhea: Jii bhabi....thank you.
Siya left with a smile and Rhea closed the door.
Rhea(sighing): Main toh abhi 2 ghante pehle hi soyi thi aur abhi bhookh bhi nahi lagi. Ek kaam karti hoon....baad mein kha loongi. Pehle so jaati hoon.
Rhea lied down on her bed and instantly drifted into sleep.
6 a.m,
Rhea's alarm rang and she switched it off in sleep. It took her a moment to realize that the time for eating sargi passed. She instantly woke up with a jerk.
Rhea: Main toh bhool hi gayi sargi ke baare mein. Chalo koi nahi....ek kaam karti hoon....sargi ko kahi chipa deti hoon aur raat ko yahi kha loongi vrat todne ke baad warna waste ho jaaega.
Rhea hid the sargi behind her bed and then went out from the room.
Scene shifts to Oberoi Mansion,
Kartik woke up yawning as his phone started vibrating. Everyone in the room was asleep so he quitely went out to the corridor.
Kartik(on call)(ywaning): Good morning Priya...bol.....
Priya(on call): Good morning....tujhe pata hain aaj kya hain?
Kartik(on call): Haan...aaj Sunday hain.....
Priya(on call): Arrey vo nahi baba....aaj karwachauth hain....tu bhool gaya?
Kartik(on call): Arrey haan....yaad hain mujhe.....par uska tujhse kya lena dena? Yeh toh shaadi shuda ladkiyaan rakhti hain na?
Priya(on call): Toh kya ho gaya? Main bhi toh...(blushing)...kuch hi dino mein shaadi shuda hone hi waali hoon.
Kartik(on call): Haan vo toh.....(realizing)...ek min....kahi tu ne.....
Priya(on call): Jii haan....maine tere liye karwachauth ka vrat rakha hain. Aaj shaam ko ghar aa jaana aunty, Sameer aur Shreya ko le kar....saath mein celebrate karenge. Abhi mujhe khana bhi banana hain...bohot saare kaam hain....so bye bye bye.....
Kartik: Arrey sun toh...hello.....
Before Kartik could speak....Priya cut the call.
Kartik: Kanha jii...yeh kya kiya? Priya vrat rakh rahi hain mere liye aur aapne use roka nahi? Kyun kiya aisa? Ab agar uski tabiyat meri wajah se kharab ho gayi toh? Aapko...(with a cute pout)....rokna chahiye tha na Priya ko? Aisa kyun kiya aapne?
"Suprabhat mitra..."said someone.
Kartik turned back only to see Kanhaiyaa standing there with a smile on his face.
Kartik(with a smile): Good morning Kanhaiyaa......tum? Itni subah subah?
Kanhaiyaa: Haan...bas neend khul gayi....waise...maine tumhari baatein suni. Tum apne Kanha se bade naraaz lag rahe the....kya baat hain?
Kartik: Vo....Priya vrat rakh hain mere liye...karwachauth ka. Pata hain na kitna mushkil hota hain? Toh usko rakhne ki kya zaroorat thi? Agar uski tabiyat kharab ho gayi toh?
"Prem se adhik nahi hain kisi ka mol....
Prem se adhik nahi hain kisi ka mol.....
Yeh vrat jisne rakha hain poore dil se....
Wahi hogi tumhari zindagi ka hissa sabse anmol. " said Kanhaiyaa with a smile
Kartik: Ofcourse I know Kanhaiyaa ki Priya mere liye kitni anmol hain...
"Jiska hriday dhadakta hain tumhare naam se.......
Jiske hriday dhadakta hain tumhare naam se.......
Uska naam shuru hota hain tumhari mitra ke naam ke dusre akshar se....."
Kartik: Hein? Kya matlab?
"Samajh jaaoge tum bohot shigra.....kya hain inn shabdon ka arthat....
Samajh jaaoge tum bohot shigra....kya hain inn shabdon ka arthat......
Kaun hain tumhari sathik jeevan sangini....kisko bandha hain bhagya ne tumhare saath...."
Kartik: Tum kya bole jaa rahe ho? Mujhe sach mein kuch samajh nahi aa raha hain Kanhaiyaa.
Kanhaiyaa(with a smile): Radhe Radhe.....
Kartik: Radhe Radhe.....
Kanhaiyaa left with a smile on his face leaving Kartik in confusion.
Scene shifts to jail,
Ritesh came inside a dimly lit room where there was a barrier in between him and the other room.
A woman in her early 50's wearing jail clothes came with disdain in her eyes. She was revealed to be Tamannah.
Tamannah: Ab toh khush hain na tu? Mera beta ho kar tu ne Ayush ka saath diya aur mujhe jail bhijwa diya. Ek baar bhi mere baare mein nahi socha tu ne?
Ritesh: Mumma aapne galati ki....Shalu aunty ko jaan se maarne ki kosish ki aur aapko usi ki sazaa mili hain. Maine bas sacchai ka saath diya aur kuch nahi.
Tamannah: Aur kya mila sacchai ka saath de kar? Ab toh meri bail bhi nahi karwaya jaa sakta. 10 saal ki sazaa hui hain mujhe. Tu khush hain na ab?
Ritesh: Mumma.....aapne jo kuch bhi kiya uske liye sazaa aapko milni hi thi. Bhale hi mujhse mera sab kuch cheen gaya lekin Shalu aunty ko insaaf mila hain aur isse zyada mujhe aur kuch nahi chahiye tha.
Tamannah: Haan haan.....tu toh aisa bolega hi. Sautela beta jo thehra.
Ritesh: Baat sautele hone ki ya saga hone ki nahi hain. Baat hain sach ki aur ab yahi aapka sach hain mumma.
Tamannah(gnashing): Mujhe aisa laga ki tu mere liye koi good news le kar aaya hain par tu toh......
Ritesh: Haan good news hain na....aur vo yeh hain ki ab sab kuch theek ho gaya hain aur Ayush uncle ke bete Kartik ki bohot jald shaadi hone waali hain and I really hope ki aap iss baar unki khushiyon ko nazar nahi lagaengi.
Tamannah left fuming in anger without any words.
Tamannah(in mind): Cheen loongi unki khushiyaan main. Uss Shalu ki aur uske bacchon ki saari khushiyaan cheen loongi main.
Scene shifts to Oberoi mansion,
Vibhor came inside the house with two bags full of groceries.
Vibhor placed the heavy bags on the floor and then sat down panting on the couch.
Vibhor(in mind): Lagta hain meri poori zindagi na kaam karte karte hi khatam ho jaaegi. Chalo...yeh kitchen mein de kar aata hoon.
Vibhor stood up to leave but by mistake he bumped into Sonia.
Sonia(disdainfully): What the hell? Dekh kar nahi chal sakte?
Vibhor: Sorry ma'am....vo main bas....
Sonia(disdainfully): Kya haan? Mujhe toh samajh mein nahi aata hain ki tumhare jaise logon ko bhai ghar mein ghusne kaise dete hain? Main hoti toh kabhi tumhare jaise middle class gawar ko aane hi nahi deti ghar ke andar. Ek toh tum thehre orphan.....humare tukdon par palte ho aur din bharr galatiyaan karte rehte ho besharmon ki tarah.
A tear flew down Vibhor's cheek but he didn't said anything.
Sonia: Waise....tumne kabhi yeh nahi socha ki tumhe bhi apne mumma papa ke saath....
"Mind your words."said Shreya seriously looking at Sonia.
Sonia: Excuse me?
Shreya: Mind your words madam. Humara status bhale hi alag hain lekin humari soch aapki jaisi cheap nahi hain.
Sonia: How dare you?
Shreya(coming infront of Vibhor): How dare you madam? Aap samajhti kya hain apne aap ko? Kahi ki maharani hain ya fir prime minister ki aapka jab bhi mann kare aap kisi ki bhi insult kar dengi?
Sonia: Oh hello....he was the one who did the mistake....maine suna diya toh....
Shreya: Usne aapko sorry bola vo sunai nahi diya aapko? Aur kya bol rahi thi aap? Kya ho gaya suna diya toh? Agar uss hisaab se dekha jaaye toh maine bhi aapko suna diya toh kya ho gaya?
Sonia(angrily): You.....
"Sonia!"said Rishi while coming down.
Sonia: Accha hua bhai aap aa gaye. Dekhiye iss Shreya aur iss Vibhor ki batameezi. Galati iss Vibhor ne ki aur maine jab thoda suna diya toh yeh mujhse kehti hain ki....
Rishi: Mujhe sab pata hain ki galati kiski hain aur kiski nahi.
Sonia: What do you mean bhai? Galati meri hain?
Rishi: Haan....galati teri hi hain. Vibhor ne galati karne ke baad sorry bol diya tha lekin tu ne uss baat ko kheecha Sonia.
Sonia: Bhai aap....
Rishi: Ek baat sunn le Sonia....Vibhor mere liye mere bete jaisa hain infact....mere bete se bhi badh kar hain aur koi mere bete ki beizzati kare yeh mujhe hargiz bardaasht nahi so mind your words before speaking.
Shreya: Sunn liya na? M...a..d..a..m?
Sonia: You....
Rishi: Just leave Sonia.....
Sonia(glaring at Vibhor): I will see you....
Saying this Sonia left.
Vibhor(teary eyed): Sorry ma'am meri wajah se.....
Shreya(wiping Vibhor's tears): Ismein tumhari koi galati nahi hain aur jab galati nahi hoti....tab sorry bolne ki addat ko khatam kar do jo ki...(looking at Rishi)...kisi qareebi ki wajah se hi laga hain tumhe....I know.
Rishi: Yeh tum meri taraf kyun dekh kar bol rahi ho? Maine isko thodi sikhaya hain sorry bolna? Yeh toh school waalon ki galati hain.
Shreya: Main sorry word sikhane ko galat nahi bol rahi hoon....baat baat par dara kar sorry bulwane waale addat ko bol rahi hoon.
Rishi: Yeh sab tu ne kaha isse Vibhor?
Vibhor: Nahi main....
Shreya: Dekha....firse dara rahe hain aap ise.
Rishi: Main dara raha hoon ise? Vibhor tu....
Vibhor: Sir main jaa raha hoon.....baad mein milte hain.
Rishi: Arrey sunn toh....
Before Rishi could speak Vibhor left hurriedly.
Rishi: Tum kya keh rahi thi?
Shreya(sighing)(holding Rishi's hand): Aaapne Vibhor ko apna beta maana hain.....toh use ek pita ki nazron se kyun nahi dekhte? Vo aapki respect karta hain and I am sure vo aapko apne papa jaise pyaar karta hoga lekin....vo aapse darta hain aur baap bete ke rishte mein....darr hona zaroori hain lekin poora rishta hi darr par based nahi hona chahiye na? Aap samajh rahe hain na?
Rishi nodded with a slight smile on his face.
Rishi: Tum dikhti nahi ho....lekin ho badi samajhdaar.
Shreya: Dikhti nahi hoon matlab?
Rishi: Kuch nahi dadi amma....(joining his hands)....maaf karo mujhe.
Shreya and Rishi giggled together and soon the giggles turned into laughter.
Evening,
Scene starts in Shalu's room,
Shalu was reading a book when Lakshmi knocked at the door.
Shalu(happy): Dii....aa naa...aise...
Before Shalu could speak...Lakshmi left keeping a container on the side table.
Shalu followed Lakshmi and then spoke.
Shalu: Dii....dii sunn na....
Lakshmi(irriated): Kya hain?
Shalu: Dii...(placing her hand on Lakshmi's)...tu....
Lakshmi detached her hand.
Lakshmi(sternly): Mere saamne drama mat kar Shalu. Jo bolna hain saaf saaf bol.
Shalu: Dii...tu mujhse aise kyun.....
Lakshmi: Aise kyun baat kar rahi hoon? Tujhe...(sighing)....sach mein koi itni badi besharam kaise ho sakti hain? Tu ne mujhse..(teary eyed)....meri bacchi ko cheen liya.
Shalu: Dii....wahi toh main tujhe bata rahi hoon ki.....
Lakshmi(angrily): Kya bata rahi hain? Yahi bata rahi hain ki kaise tu ne meri bacchi ko...(teary eyed) paida hote hi mujhse alag kar diya? Aur ab besharmon ki tarah waapis aa gayi iss ghar mein? Bilkul bhi sharam nahi aayi tujhe?
Shalu(teary eyed): Dii meri baat toh sunn.....
Lakshmi(angrily)(teary eyed): Kuch nahi sunn na hain mujhe Shalu aur tu na ek baat yaad rakhna. Mujhse meri khushiyaan cheen kar tujhe teri khushiyaan kabhi nahi milengi....main milne hi nahi doongi.
Saying this Lakshmi left...leaving Shalu in unshed tears.
Shalu wiped her unshed tears and came inside the room, locking it.
Terrace,
Kartik was arranging all the food on the terrace and Sameer was helping him.
Sameer: Kartik.....waise tu ne vrat kiske liye rakha hain? Priya ke liye? Ya fir Rhea ke liye?
Kartik: Ofcourse Priya ke liye....Rhea ke liye kyun rakhunga yaar?
Sameer: Tujhe pata hain....Rhea ne bhi fast rakha hain.
Kartik: Tujhe kaise pata?
Sameer: Shaanvi ne bataya....
Kartik(teasing): Oho! Aaj kal Shaanvi se kaafi baatein hoti hain.
Sameer: Hatt! Kya khaak baat hoti hain? Din mein bas do hi baar toh.....
Sameer looked at Kartik slightly and found him smiling at him with a mischevious smile.
Sameer: I mean....d..do baar.....
Kartik(mischeviously): Haan haan....sirf do baar....so saddd.....din mein teen time baat kiya kar.
Sameer hit Kartik slightly.
Kartik: Sacchai karwi lag gayi?
Sameer: Oh hello! Agar main sach bolne lag gaya na toh....
Kartik: Kaisa sach?
Sameer(mischeviously): Mujhe pakka lagta hain ki Rhea ne tere liye vrat rakha hain.
Kartik: Kuch bhi?
Sameer: Kuch bhi nahi....sach hain. Mujhe toh yeh bhi lagta hain ki Rhea tujhe like karti hain.
Kartik: Rhea? Aur mujhe like karti hain?
Sameer: Haan....
Kartik: Teri dimaag kharab ho gaya hain.....tu na Shaanvi par dhyaan de.
Saying this Kartik was leaving when suddenly he stopped on spot.
Kartik got lost in Rhea. His heart started beating faster. A wide smile appeared on his face and without realizing he walked towards Rhea.
"Tere dar pe aake tham gaye....naina namazi bann gaye.....
Ek duje mein yun dhalke aashiqaana aayat bann gaye main....aur tum.....
Kaisi dil lagayi kar gaye.....dil ki rubai bann gaye.....
Khaali khaali dono the jo....thoda sa dono bharr gaye main...aur tum.....
Chalo jii aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon.....itni si baat hain.....mujhe tumse pyaar hain.....
Yun hi nahi main tumpe jaan deta hoon....
Itni si baat hain....mujhe tumse pyaar hain....
Chalo jii aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon....itni si baat hain....mujhe tumse pyaar hain....
Mujhe tumse......pyaar hain. "
Kartik(with a smile)(dreamily)(mumbling): Gorgeous!💗
Rhea snapped infront of Kartik bringing him out from his dream land.
Rhea: Kaisi lag rahi hoon?
Kartik: Beautiful.....bohot pyaari lag rahi ho.
Rhea(with a smile)(blushing): Thank you....
Kartik: Waise maine suna...tumne karwachauth ka vrat rakha hain. Vo kiske liye? Kahi...(teasing)...Ritesh ke liye....
Rhea: Nahi nahi...bilkul nahi....vo toh maine kisi aur ke liye rakha hain. Waise bhi....uss bandar ke liye koi vrat nahi rakhega.
Kartik giggled hearing this.
Rhea: Umm...Priya nahi aayi?
Kartik: Vo bas aa rahi hain.....nikal gayi hain ghar se. Bas ab yeh chaand jaldi se nikal aaye....badi bhookh lagi hain.
Rhea: Haan sahi mein...badi bhookh lagi hogi Priya ko.
Kartik: Use toh lagi hogi par mujhe usse zyada lagi hain.
Rhea: Matlab? Tumne bhi Priya ke liye karwachauth ka vrat rakha hain?
Kartik: Umm...nahi.....maine Priya ke liye nahi....kisi aur ke liye rakha hain.
Rhea: Accha? Kiske liye?
Kartik: Tumhare liye.....
"Ek tum....ek main...teeja maangu kya khuda se?
Dil doon...jaan doon..kya doon? Itna bata de...."
Rhea's eyes glistened with tears hearing this, goosebumps popped in her whole body and she her cheeks turned red.
"Tera...mera rishta hain...saanson se bhi naazuk.
Tumsa...humsa dooja...na hoga na hua re....
Do dil sa ek seene mein hain...jaise main aur tum.....
Ab dono hum ek jeene mein hain jaise main aur tum.....
Kartik was walking closer to Rhea and she was going backwards when suddenly...her heel stumbled and she was about to fall down when Kartik caught her in his strong arms, their eyes connecting, hearts skipping beats and goosebumps popping in their whole body.
"Jaise zyada...chaha tumko jiya re...
Har pal...harr dum...hum dum....tumko jiya re....
Chalo ji aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon...itni si baat hain...mujhe tumse pyaar hain.
Yun hi nahi main tumpe jaan deta hoon....
Itni si baat hain...mujhe tumse pyaar hain....
Chalo jii aaj saaf saaf kehta hoon....
Itni si baat hain...mujhe tumse pyaar hain.....
Mujhe tumse...pyaar hain."
Sameer(with a smile)(in mind): Kisiki nazar na lage inn dono ko.
