Ankhiyan de kol reh jaane de
Kehna hai jo keh jaane de...

I opened my eyes to realize that i got married.I didn't expect it that too in this way never,but we were married.I couldn't meet her eyes because i was the one who has to stop but i could not.I was carried over by all the rituals........ if it's Monisha then i would have definitely did something to stop but she was not Monisha she was Preetha Arora.........When Monisha got unconscious preetha replaced her just for few minutes. While our gang would derive the truth from monisha,she gotta act like my bride but she really became my bride.They were successful in knowing the truth and pandit was successful in doing our marriage.

Like a saying......one shot two birds,our shot Monisha closed the two evil chapters of our lives Prithvi and Sherlyn.Its ,indeed, a happy day for all of my family then i looked at her.She was looking like a red rose then i noticed the tiny drops in her eyes.Ahhh.......its paining for me.Was it because of me or our marriage? Didn't she liked it?Those questions bothered me than Prithvi.

I think for the first time god answered my questions instantly........my mother.She likes to keep preetha herself and would she lose if she gets the opportunity..... impossible!!!!

Rakhi: Sarlaji jo hogaya so hogaya hein.......ab preetha ki shaadi hogayi hein karan ke saath.mein bahot kush hu iss baath pe.......(sarla ma was dubious) aap bas ek baar socho ki kya preetha ko hamse zyada behther parivaar milega?

I,myself was convinced by the logic and there was no need to tell about our families.My mother's wish got fulfilled.

Rakhi: khottede puttar!!! Zindagi mein bas do ache kaam ki hein.......ek cricket dusra shaadi.I am proud of you my son!!!!

Does a mother give these kind of blessings on your marriage day? I am lucky i got them.........She smiled seeing me annoyed now she looked perfect.I smiled too.........our wedding day went like that.

                                                        Terekhayalon mein beete yeh raatein

Dil mera maange ek hi dua

Wedding night...........my wedding was accidental my bride was accidental her acceptance was accidental.In between these many accidentals who cares about wedding night? But it was there and i gotta go for sure.I made up my mind to go but my gang.....uffoo.

Krithika(clearing her throat): so bhaai hamari nek?

Karan: nek? Kyun?

Krithika: ache kaam karne se pehle nek dete hein.....

Sameer: haa bhai.

Karan: thum kya meri behen ho jo nek maang raha hein?

Sameer: mein aapki behen nai preetha babhi ki bhai hu.(huffs) bhai aapna bahot time waste kar rahe ho.......

Srishti: haa sir......apne nai suna wo kahawat nek kaam mein der kaise? Jaldi do aur chale jao...

Karan(murmuring): kaam ........kya kaam?..agar kuch karne ja rahe tho nek dunga naa kuch bhi nai tho mein nek kyun du? Lekin yeh samjathe nai hein (to them) aap sab Sameer se lelo mein usko dunga.

Sameer(shocked): bhaaaaiii ......(I saw him angry) achaa aap promise karo aap mujhe doge baad mein.

Karan: teri kasam sammy... ...

I went inside.She changed her dress and sat on the coach.She stood seeing me but didn't speak anything.I silently went to change.

I came back changing my clothes.We were silent,we karan and preetha who waits to fight and whose mouths doesn't stop seeing each other, now have no words to speak.She took the blanket and went to coach to sleep but me being a gentleman chose the coach.She silently laid on bed.With much courage,

Karan: G....good night.

She smiled and said .....

Preetha: Good night.

Those were the first words after our marriage.She slept but i kept looking outside.I thought it was difficult.Its difficult to be a husband, difficult to speak with her and difficult to be with her.Thanks to the drama that day,my tiredness had overcome my thoughts and i slept.

       Tu saamne ho aur karun main baatein

Lamha rahe yoon thehra hua

Next morning,I opened my eyes to see a beautiful girl in a sari getting ready infront of mirror.Hey.....Who's that girl.....and what was she doing in my room? I went towards her with drowsy eyes and saw her in mirror.I rubbed my eyes twice to see clearly.......it's her.Preetha.......i have seen her many times but not in my room early morning that too in a saree.I was left speechless.........in a peach saree she looked like an angel.A smile stole my lips automatically and said

Karan: Good morning

She smiled......ahh.

Preetha: Good morning......thum ready ho jao.rakhi aunty bula rahi hein hame.....

I said ok and turned towards washroom seeing her again.We went down and took the blessings of everyone.Its different you know...... i was a naughty boy till yesterday evening but now I am a married man.My dramatic parents,chirpy cousins made it more difficult.But she seemed to be cool and happy.She was taken for 1st rasoi and i got seated with my cousin's.Oh god......their teasings!!!! I really wished nobody should ever have these type of cousins.......She came with her dish.Its delicious.......but i couldn't say  it's difficult for me.

Pehle toh kabhi yunmujhko na aisa kuch       hua. 

   Deewani lehron ko jaise saahil mila...

Slowly she became the tongue of my family.She used to take care of everyone including me.But i thought its difficult for me to be like an old karan with her.

It's important day for me.An important match to represent India in internationals.Our boys were doing well but thier bowlers too.Target got big and our strength became small.I was in dressing room tensed when she came and sat beside me.

Preetha: nervous ho?

I just closed my eyes joining my both hands.Then she hold me through my shoulder.Its been 2 months we were married and she had that right.I looked at her she smiled and it relaxed my heart.Maybe i was longing for this.......then i remembered match.She began saying.. 

Preetha: yaad hein wo din......jab ham sab Sherlyn ki sachai lane keliye kitna kuch kiya.  kitna papad bela pada itna ki thum Monisha se shaadi karne keliye bhi ready hogaya (i remembered those moments) lekin srishti ki wajah se woh behosh hogaya aur mujhe aana pada.......thumhe pata hein mein kitna dar gaya uss wakth? Lekin mein piche nai hata kyunki agar mein wo kadam nai utatha tho Sherlyn aur prithvi pata nai kya kuch karthe........ bahot bura hojatha tha.meine yeh socha aur.....immat rakhke thumhara dulhan bangaya.bhagwan ka ashirwad hamare saath hein undono ka sachai khul gaya aur meri bhagya bhi... thumhara family jo mile the mujhe..............yeh sab se mujhe yeh samaj gaya ki kitna bhi mushkil problem ho hamare saamne hame immat rakhke aakri dam tak ladna hein.darna nai sirf ladna hein.aur jeethe bhi wahi hoga......

I was just looking at her and i don't know when i felt ease.Yeah it's easy now.She smiled at me and stood to go.i also stood when she hugged me.Its the best feeling i got.I hugged her back and we stayed for 5 mins but i felt like 5 seconds.She cupped my face with one hand

Preetha: We know you are the best and fight ......fight until the last minute to win.

I pinched myself to know was it a dream? But no......she said those words.It made me feel i am the bestest and now what all i have to do is fight......fight for my team,fight for my country.Giving me 1000 elephant strength she went.

I just entered the crease and the whole stadium cheered seeing me.I am their hope, thier wish and i had the responsibility to fulfill it.I would definitely.......it's my first shot and it was a 6.

Amidst of all the cheers,shouts and crowds of people around me,i heard nothing and saw anyone just her.She was with krithika,Sameer and Rishab cheering for me......for me.Then i observed she was wearing tshirt having my photo on it.I had widest of widest smiles everyone thought that it's because of my sixer but only I know why.Seeing her wearing my tshirt and cheering for me,for the first ever time i felt..........

       O... Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga

Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga

And i played ferociously with a smile on my face.We won the match and I saw her first.She was jumping like she herself won the match.Its worth watching........after the ceremony,i met her.She kissed me and hugged me tightly that i could fall down.i didn't understand what she did for a second but the camera flashes brought us back.The whole media captured us in their tiny lens........we were ought to give poses.We were tired but media won't .....right?

                       O mere sohneya ve

Chhad saari galiyan main
Naal tere tur chaleya ma 

Le chal mujhko duniya se tu door

The reporters started asking questions.....not me but her.

Reporter: lag tha hein aap bahut kush ho?

Preetha: kya aap kush nai hein ki india jeeth gayi?

I smiled at her sarcasm.

Reporter: aap kush isiliye hein ki india jeetha ya aapki pati ki wajah se jeeta

Preetha: Actually the whole team contributed to the win so its a team effort and yeah I am proud that india won because of my husband.

She killed me with this.

Reporter: Behind every successful man there will be a woman.We think you are the women for his success.

Preetha: Not only me but our whole family was and will be there behind him.mein abhi abhi aaya hu is parivaar mein unki family bachapan se use support kar rahe the so I say behind every successful man there will be his whole family.

Reporter: Bahot sahi kaha......any complaints with him?

Preetha: No complaints and no regrets for now and forever.

Reporter: That's really sweet.......What about Jr.Karan luthra?

We looked at each other its awkward.

Karan: Pehle mujhe senior banane do fir sochenge junior ke baare mein

They laughed and our bouncers made us way.We celebrated my success and team's.

          Chori chori jad tenu takkeya main
 
         Khud ko sambhal na sakeya main

        Chadh gaya sajna tera yeh fitoor...

After our marriage,i thought life was difficult but no it's actually easy .....easier than before and she made it easy for me.Gradually,i realised that because of her, i could be in this position.I was just thinking about my difficulties,my adjustments,my change but i forgot she was also having all this.From an accidental marriage to daughter in law of luthras and to wife of karan Luthra.......she has come a long way alone because i was busy in my own world.And i am what i am because of her.

                                                                                 Langh jaani ve

                                                                           Marjaani raath

                                                                           Kehni jo thi

                                                                          Kehde woh baath

 It's Sameer and srishtys engagement.Its been 6 months we got married.I was happily talking with my brother when she was descending stairs putting her ear ring.She was wearing a green and rose lehenga and everyone were just seeing her.I was not irked but proud that my wife was beautiful.Though her mangalsutr and vermilion could be clearly seen  irking every one.I wanna irk them more so i went to her.She smiled at me.

Preetha: kaisi lag rahi hu.(before i say) Khabardar buri bola tho.

She had a reason to say this because i always tease her.After all its our favourite thing.......

Karan: bahot pretty lag rahi ho (she smiled widely) mera friends aaya hein......chalo.

I walked ,having her beside me, with my hands on her waist warning everyone that she is MRS.KARAN LUTHRA.I think everyone got the point........they have to.

                                                                    Langjaanive

                                                                   Marjaani baath

                                                                   Kehnijothi 

                                                                   Kehdewo baath

After the engagement,she was removing her jewelry and i was staring her leaning on the door. The only thought i had was how does she manage to fulfilling all her responsibilities? I came near her and back hugged her.She was surprised but didn't resist........in this 6 months of marriage we have that space.

I was just Looking into the mirror,

Preetha(softly): kyaa dekh rahe ho?

Karan: thumhe dekh raha hu.

Preetha: kya? Mujhe......kyun?

Karan: dekh raha hu ki thum aise kaise ho?

Preetha: matlab

Karan: mujhe na doubt hein bahot dinose.....

Preetha: kya?

Karan: thum sab kuch itna easily handle karthe ho.Thumhara career,mera career,mera family thumhara family sab ko aur meine kabhi nai dekha thumhe takthe hue worry hothe hue......aise kaise?

Preetha(soothing): thum hona mere saath mujhe kis baath ki pareshan hogi.mujhe hasane keliye,mujhe gussa dilane keliye,mujhe manane keliye aur...... mereliye ......thum ho.

Who does not fall for her? I had badly fallen for her.......

We just felt the moment seeing each other.

Karan: Not bad Mrs.Luthra aap bhi kamal ho rahi ho .......

Preetha(smiling): mein hu kamal ki cheez Mr.Luthra.aap pehchane mein der kiya.....

Karan: So uss reporter ki baathon ka kya khyaal hein?

Preetha: kis reporter?

Karan: wahi match ke baad puchatha na.......Jr.Luthra.....(i looked at her smirking)

She understood what i meant and i thought her cheeks would turn red but her eyes turned red.She turned to me.

Karan: kya hua?

Preetha:  Mujhe na woh teen shabd sunna meri bhagya mein hi nai hein.

Karan: theen shabd?

Preetha: haa theen shabd.......zyada acting math karo.mujhe pata hein ki thumhe pata hein.......

I was confused and looking at her.

Preetha: pehle wo teen shabd bolo aur uske baad ham sochenge uss reporter ki question ki baare mein.......tab tak kuch bhi nai.theekey.......

I thought for a while and understood what she want to hear.I smiled and back hugged her.

Karan: So madam ko woh teen shabd chahiye.......(she nods lovingly) mein teen nai saath shabd bolungaa.......woh shabd thumhe dekhthe hi mere man mein aatha hein......

She was waiting....

Preetha: kya?

Karan(slowly in her ears) :  Ek..... ladki ...ko ..dekha ...toh ...aisa.. laga

She smiled and i again said hugging her tightly.

Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga......

Her cheeks were turning red when i again said

Ek ladki ko dekha toh aisa laga........

And i kissed her.

I couldn't complete it because it's beyond my words.She never asked me those 3 words and I never said because 7 is greater than 3........right? I said what i felt because its the best feeling I ever will have only for her even though we were at 60.She understood me and my feelings,that's what all a man wants.Through all my journey,I understood love cannot be confined  or explained in just 3 words because my every feeling for her is love.And my feelings for her are uncountable.At this point .......I really wanna thank two persons Prithvi and Sherlyn.Without them, there would have never been karan and preetha. After all villian's are there to unite hero and heroine.

Hey...... wait my heroine is waiting for her hero after all we need to plan for Junior Luthra!!!!Bye.See you and haa one last line........   

It's Karan Luthra and it's the end of my marriage story and beginning of my love story.......
