RECAP - Karan-Shivaay meeting, Tej-Shukla conversation.

MR SHUKLA'S HOUSE

T - (shocked) What? That means Anika, Gauri and Bhavya are the sisters of Karan?

Shukla nodded.

T - Are you sure, Shukla? I mean, how come they together came to Oberoi Mansion? And they are also having different surnames. How is it even possible?

S - Your suspicions are really considerable, Tej. But the truth can never be changed. I don't know what to say, but we could say that it is a coincidence that they came to Oberoi family together. Maybe it is because they were never meant to live separately. And about the surnames, (handing a file to Tej) these papers clearly state that Anika was adopted by Mr Harshvardhan Trivedi, Gauri was adopted by Mr Vishal Sharma and Bhavya was adopted by Mr Abhay Pratap Rathore, and they were adopted from the same orphanage.

Tej was shocked to hear the new set of information he received about his daughter-in-laws, whom he considered as his own daughters.

S - I hope your doubts are now cleared, Tej.

Tej nodded and smiled happily.

S - One more thing, Tej. I have called Karan to meet me and he will be here very soon, but before that I need to tell and ask you something.

T - Tell me.

S - As a part of the case, I did a background check on your daughter-in-laws and from that I came to know that ShivOmRu and AniRiVya are not in good terms.

Tej hung his head down.

S - I am afraid of one thing, Tej. As much as I know, Karan and his brothers are very protective of their sisters, so if they ever come to know that Shivaay had married Anika forcefully, Omkara and Rudra had not yet accepted their marriage with Gauri and Bhavya, it's gonna create a huge problem. So I need to ask you one thing, do I need to tell Karan about the current status of their marriage?

T - This decision is not mine, Shukla. Anika, Gauri and Bhavya should decide what to do. But now we should not tell Karan about it, when he will meet his sisters, if they want, they will definitely tell this to him.

Shukla nodded. Shukla's assistant entered.

SA : Sir, Karan sir arrived.

S - Let him in.

Shukla's assistant nodded and went outside.

Karan entered. He was surprised to see Tej there.

K - Tej uncle! You are here? What a surprise!

They both hugged each other.

T - How are you, my son? After a long time....

K - I am great. What about you, uncle?

T - I'm doing good, son.

K - I had met Shivaay and was planning to come to Oberoi Mansion tomorrow. But why are you here, uncle?

S - We have found your sisters, Karan.

Karan got shocked as well as overjoyed.

K - (restlessly) What? Are you sure uncle? If yes, then where are they? Tell me, uncle. I want to know where my sisters are now.

S - Relax, Karan. First take a seat.

Everyone sat down. Karan looked at Shukla for answers.

S - (calmly) Yes, we have found your sisters and that is one of the reason why Tej is here.

K - (confused) What is the connection between my sisters and Tej uncle?

S - Because your sisters now belong to Oberoi family. The daughter-in-laws of Oberoi family are your sisters, Karan.

Karan looked at him with wide eyes.

K - What are you saying, uncle?

S - It's the truth.

Shukla told everything to Karan except how ShivOmRu got married to AniRiVya and how is their current relationship status.

K - That means my sisters are now married and that too to ShivOmRu. I need to see my sisters as soon as possible.

He started walking towards the door.

T - Wait a minute, Karan.

Karan stopped and turned around.

T - Not now, Karan. Tomorrow, come to Oberoi Mansion for dinner. You need to meet your sisters first before telling this to others, because their opinion is important and there is some more things that you need to know. But we can't tell that to you, so you need to meet your sisters first before anything else.

Karan nodded.

T - First, you need to form a bond with them and then you need to meet them personally to tell them the truth.

K - But why is that so, uncle?

T - Karan, I told you right we can't tell you everything just like that. There are some things that only your sisters can tell you. So you have to meet them for that.

K - Okay, uncle.

There was silence for sometime.

K - Tej uncle, do you have any photo of my sisters?

Tej nodded and took out his phone. He showed a picture of AniRiVya to Karan.

Karan looked at the photo with tears in his eyes. He caressed the photo.

K - My sisters have grown up so much from the last time I saw them.

Tej placed his hand on Karan's shoulder to console him. Karan wiped his tears and looked at Tej.

K -  They are fine over there, right uncle?

T - They are very happy with us, son. But there are some problems that I can't talk to you about. Your sisters will tell you everything.

Karan nodded.

K - I will come tomorrow, uncle. I need to tell this happy news to Arnav and Neil too. Bye, see you later.

Tej nodded and Karan left.

Tej sighed loudly and looked at Shukla.

T - I hope everything will get alright.  Don't know how will Karan and his brothers react after knowing everything. Especially, Arnav. He is a short-tempered man and was always very protective about his brothers and sisters. He might not tolerate anything like this.

S - Relax, Tej. Their sisters are there, right? They know how to control their brothers.

Tej again sighed.

EVENING

OBEROI MANSION

Living room

Everyone were sitting in the living room chitchatting with each other.

Suddenly, Shivaay's phone beeped with a message. He took the phone. It was a message from Karan.

Karan - Hi Shivaay! I am free tomorrow. So I will be there for dinner.

Shivaay - You are most welcome:)

Daadi saw that Shivaay was smiling happily.

D - What is it, billu? Why are you smiling like this?

S - Daadi, do you know Karan? My childhood friend. Do you remember?

D - Haa puttar. I know him. But now he is not here, right? I remember that he went to New York or somewhere.

S - Actually Daadi, he and his brothers returned from New York last week. And today I met him and invited him for dinner. At first, he told that he was busy but now he messaged me that he will come tomorrow for dinner.

O - But Shivaay, why did they suddenly come back to Mumbai?

S - They came to Mumbai in search of their sisters.

R - What? Sisters?

S - Due to some problems in their past, they lost their sisters. And now they are in search of their sisters.  Shukla uncle is their private investigator.

J - That's a good thing, Shivaay. Shukla is Tej's best friend and we can also help him find his sisters.

S - Exactly, Badi Maa.

T - Actually, I met Shukla and Karan today. And there is a happy news. Shukla's team almost found their sisters. Karan will get back his sisters with in some days.

S - Wow, bade papa. It's really a very happy news.

Everyone agreed with Shivaay.

D - Now let us all go and have dinner. It's already late.

Everyone went to have dinner.

PRECAP - Dinner at Oberoi Mansion. Bond with AniRiVya.
