Wishing all here, a Very Happy New Year!!!
Titli and Bulbul are standing in the first floor, looking down, where Ved is sitting in the hall and thinking. She seems to be lost. Titli tells Bulbul that since Ved came back from HK, she looks very depressed. Bulbul says she has just lost her child. Titli says yes, this is the worst thing that can ever happen to a lady. But, something tells me that Ved is upset for another big reason. See the pale eyes, there is only sorrow and darkness in them. She tells Bulbul that she will ask Dhruv whether he has told anything to Ved that has made her upset. Titli tells she will hole Dhruv's ears and ask him to pacify Ved.
Ved is sitting, when Kavitha and Tara arrive with innumerable shopping bags. Kavitha tells Ved that they bought lots of things for Tara's marriage. But Tara says she will take only the ones which Ved chooses for her. So they exhibit everything to Ved, Tara asks her to choose. Ved appears to be cheerful. She is seeing all the various coloured sarees, suddenly, her face turns pale. Tara is upset. She tells Ved that if she is missing Dhruv so much, why did she not stay back, bring Dhruv along with her? Ved is trying hard to control her tears. Tara tells Ved that she does not want answers in monosylabs from her. She will take only those things which Ved chooses. Ved then pretends to be ok, then starts seeing the sarees, jewels and selects them for Tara, who is now happy.
As they are selecting, Kavitha gets a call. It is from her friend, who has taken an appointment with an eye doctor for Kajal. Kavitha tells Ved and Tara that she hopes to get back Kajal's eyesight very soon, as she is consulting a very famous Eye doctor. Ved and Tara are happy. Kavitha says i only wish that all my 3 sons are happy with their wives. Ved goes pale again.
Titli and many have gathered, sitting in a circle, putting mehendi on their hands. Titli tells Kavitha that she has put her husband's name in her palms. She shows the Rajan written on her palms. Kavitha then tells Kajal, Ved and Nih about the significance of the puja they will perform in the evening. She tells them that all the suhaagans will have to put mehendi, then deck themselves just in the way they looked, on the day of their wedding. They need to go to the river side mandap, pray for the well being and long life of their husband. They need to light a diya, place it in the river, taking their husband's name. Ved is upset, so it Nih. Then the ladies take Ved and Nih's hands to put mehendi. Kavitha asks her 3 bahus to put mehendi, get dressed on time in the evening. Mehendi is put. Ved's hand has a DHRUV in it. Nih's hand has a RUDR in it. Ved gets very upset, she runs in.
Ved goes to the puja room, cries her heart out before God. She tells God that she can fool all, but not God. She cannot do this puja now that, she is not a suhaagan. Nih comes there, consoles her. She tells Ved that her puja will really be valued, as she has been a very loving wife to her husband even when he was there. Now, when he is gone, she still continues to hold her husband's family from breaking up. This in itself is a reason for you to do this puja. Now, the happiness of the entire family lies in your hands, so you need to do the puja, Nih says. Ved is in tears.
Puja. A bed like arrangement is made in the centre of a river, with the idol of God placed. All are dressed well, they come to do the puja. Nih, Kavitha and Kajal walk in front followed by Ved. The 3 step onto the dias placed on the river, go and perform the puja. As Ved is setting her foot on the dias, she stops. She begins to think. The 3 perform the puja, are coming, wehn Kavitha asks Ved why she stopped. Ved says she had left the kalash in the car, so went to get it. Kavitha asks Ved to perform her puja,as they have done it. She asks Ved to come to the river side then. Ved goes, is performing the puja, with tears running down her cheeks, when Sundari comes there. She ridicules Ved being here. She tells that her puja does not have any value now, as this pure place of God is now spoilt by a widow entering it. Ved is in tears. She screams at Ved, how dare you come here and spoil the atmosphere? Why are you wearing all these things, why are you dressed like a suhagan? Who gave you the right to do so? She tells Ved that she will give her a suggestion, she should not waste her time donig all this puja as it does not have any meaning. She is screaming when Nih comes there.Nih tells Sundari that now tell me, who gave you the right to be here? Ved is atleast a widow, with her husband's name with her. Her husband has given her the love of saath janams. But Sundari cannot be called a suhaagan or a widow. There is a seperate category for people like Sundari, they are called Doosri Aurat. Ved is far better than Sundari, who does not have the husband's name, or the rights of a wife. Sundari is shocked. Nih tells Sundari that she will give her a usggestion, she needs to go out of this place, she cannot waste her time here, as her puja does not have any meaning. SAying this, she takes Ved with her. Sundari stands shocked.
All at the river side, standing on the steps, to place the lighted diyas in the water. Ved and Nih come. Kavitha is already there with Kajal. All assemble. All place the diyas in water, Ved is about to place, she stops. Nih sees this, tells her that she cannot worry over Sundari's words. Ved is donig the right thing, so she should not allow Sundari's words to hurt her, stop her from doing it. Ved then places the diya. She is crying as she does this. Nih is relieved. All are just looking at their diyas sailing in water. Suddenly, Ved's diya blows off. All are shocked to see it. Kavitha is stunned. Sundari gets up, screams, says that this is a bad omen, she worries what is wrong with Dhruv. This makes Kavitha more tense.
Home. Ved comes to Kavitha, asks her why she is worried. Nih is also there. Kavitha tells Ved that she is worried about Dhruv. She needs to speak to him immediately. Ved and Nih are shocked. I will not rest till i hear his voice. Ved ays nothing is wrong, he has your prayers with him. Ved is in tears, as she says this. Kavitha is restless, tries Dhruv's mobile. But it says it is not reachable. Kavitha complains to Ved that whenever she tries, his phone is not reachable. Ved says that network might not be there. Kavitha says if a small problem comes near a son, a mother will get so panicky. Now, her heart has stopped beating, she will die if she does not hear her son Dhruv's voice. She cries and goes in. Ved and Nih are upset.
Next morning, a phone rings. Kavitha runs and picks it up in the hall. Ved is seeing from upstairs, Sundari is down, near Kavitha. Kavitha answers, is very happy and excited and says Dhruv!!! How are you? She is talking to him, Ved and Sundari look stunned, as they do not know who has called...
Tomorrow: Kajal's operation over, her eye bandage is being removed. Ant is standing before her, he is tensed. Kajal opens her yes, sees Ant. She at once recognises him, screams What are you doing here?
