Swara and Veer backed off hearing Veer's GranDurga Parsada's words.

Swara had started feeling for Sanskar, she wasn't ready at all for this marriage.

Swara tried to spoke: "Uncle Ji..."

Nanu put a hand on his head: "No dear, you don't need to say anything else. I just want to see Veer happy with his love... and I know that's you."

Veer: "Nehi Granpa you..."

Nanu turned towards him: "Shut up! Don't be shy! I understand..."

Ragini hugged Swara tightly: "Shonaaaa! I'm so happy today! You got a life partner like Veer! This is amazing!"

Swara didn't know how to react. She tried to speak but Ragini was too excited to let her say anything.

Mrs. Singhania: "Really this is a great news!"

Veer: "But Mom..!"

But he was interrupted by Sanskar and Laksh who were on 9th cloud.

Laksh: "Wow Veer you are so clever pal! You didn't let anyone suspect at all!"

Sanskar: "You were in love with Swara... and here we thought..."

Laksh and Sanskar looked at each other and then laughed.

Mr. Singhania: "We shall talk to your parents now first... and then immediately engagement, sangeet and wedding!"

Ragini: "Yes... I'll just call them..."

Mrs. Singhania: "Dear give us their number, we will talk with them."

Ragini smiled: "Yes sure..." - And she gave her Shekhar's number.

LATER

Swara, Ragini, Sanskar and Laksh came out of the hospital.

Ragini: "I still can't believe Swara! I am so happy... but also sad..." - her smile became smaller - "How will I stay without you once you'll be gone..."

Swara, who was looking down silently, said: "Then don't send me away from you na..."

Ragini looked at her with teary eyes: "Swara Veer is a very nice guy... you'll be happy with him!"

Swara: "But my happiness is not with him.... It's with you..."

Ragini: "Swara this had to happen one day..."

Swara: "Buy why now?"

Ragini: "Swara..."

But Swara ran away.

AFTER A WHILE

Ragini and Swara entered in their house. As soon as Swara stepped inside Sharmishta ran towards her and hugged her tightly: "Shona!!! I am soo happy for you!!"

Ragini: "See stupid! Maa is soooo happy and you..."

Sharmishta looked at Swara holding her shoulders: "You aren't thinking to reject the proposal I hope! Shona... it's the son of Singhania & Co. 's owner! Do you even realize it?"

Swara: "But Maa... I..."

Just then Shekhar came and said: "But what Swara? You really want to say no?"

Swara and Ragini looked at him. They were happily surprised to see him standing and no more on the wheelchair.

A smile came on both SwaRagini's face.

They shouted: "Papaaa!!" - and ran towards him to hug him.

Ragini: "Papa you are fine!?"

Shekhar: "Fit and fine like never before!"

Sharmishta: "See! Since we've talked with Veer's parents, everything is just going to the right way! Your father was so happy and that helped him to recover as well!"

Shekhar: "I had to get fine obviously! They called us tomorrow to finalize the date of the wedding! How could I go on wheelchair?!"

Ragini: "Did you see Swara? You're the reason of so much happiness in this house!"

Swara was looking down: "Ok then.... I will marry Veer..."

Ragini: "Really?"

Swara nodded looking down. Ragini hugged her tightly: "Yayyyy!!!!

Sharmishta cupped Swara's face: "Are you happy?"

Swara: "Are you happy mom?"

Sharmishta nodded.

Swara: "Then I'm happy too..."

She smiled a little bit and went away, almost running, towards her room-

Sharmishta, Shekhar and Ragini looked at her from behind.

Shekhar: "Ragini..."

Ragini: "Yes Papa?"

Shekhar: "One is ready... what about you?"

Ragini: "What do you mean Papa?"

Shekhar: "When are you planning to think about marriage?"

Ragini looked at him furrowing her eyebrow and shook her head: "I'm not going anywhere!" - she went near Sharmishta and hugged her from behind putting her arms around Sharmishta's neck - "Leaving my mother and father!"

ON THE OTHER SIDE:

Laksh was lying on his bed and was holding a photo... Ragini's photo... he smiled looking at it: "Yah ok... I've fallen for you. I'm completely, madly in love with you. So? So you have to come to me!"

In Sanskar's room:

Sanskar was looking out from his room's window. There was a beautiful sunset.

Sanskar: "What to do now Ragini? I love you... and now it's time for you to come to me as well..."

In Gadodia's house:

Sharmishta, while Ragini was still hugging her: "And what if your prince charming calls you to him?"

Ragini jiggled hugging Sharmishta: "I will say him that he isn't more important than my parents so he must go back!"

Sharmishta: "You're mad!"

Ragini: "That I am!"

ON THE OTHER HAND

Veer was sitting near his GranDurga Parsada in his ward. He was silently looking down. He looked at his GranDurga Parsada who was sleeping.

FLASHBACK

A little kid was running in the courtyard of a big house when he slipped and fell on the ground. He started to cry loudly when a lady came and made him stand up holding his shoulder tightly. It was Veer's mother.

Mrs. Singhania: "Don't you know how to walk?"- the little Veer cried more loudly..

Mrs. Singhania: "Shut up or else..." - she rose up a hand to slap him. Veer closed his eyes but before her mom could actually slap him someone held her wrist and stopped her. Veer slowly opened his eyes and saw his Granpa scolding his mom. A smile came on his face...

FLASHBACK ENDS

Veer had tears in eyes.

Veer thought: "How can I say that you misunderstood me? You will star blaming yourself for this mess and I don't have the courage to let this happen... GranDurga Parsada..."

He closed his eyes while tears continued to skip on his cheek.

THE NEXT DAY

Ragini, Sharmishta, Swara and Shekhar came in Singhania's Mansion.

Mrs. Singhania opened the door: "We were just waiting for you! Come!"

They took seat on the sofa in the living room and also Veer's father came.

Mr. Singhania: "So we all know that the two love each other... so we shouldn't wait!"

Shekhar: "Yes, same for us. As you wish..."

Mrs. Singhania: "Actually we need to go to Bangkok for a meeting next month so we talked to our pandit ji who said who gave the auspicious day for the wedding after four days."

Sharmishta: "Four days? Isn't it too soon?"

Mrs. Singhania: "We do want our daughter-in-law as soon as possible! We were thinking to do the engagement right now by exchanging rings... and there is a ritual we follow in our family that we throw a party for our guests from groom side to celebrate the new relation! Like there is mehendi function in the bride's home, at the same time there will be this little party at our place... then sangeet and then finally wedding!"

Shekhar and sharmishta looked at each other: "Yes but..."

Ragini: "Yes aunty ji! Everything is ok! It will happen exactly like you want and we will arrange everything on time!"

Swara looked on.

Ragini: "And if the engagement is today... where is the groom?"

Sharmishta: "Ragini stay quiet!" - She eyed her and then looked back at Veer's parents - "We actually don't have the ring right now... so how will the engagement..."

Veer's mother: "Leave that upon us! Wait... Ramu kaka!!"

A servent came.

Mrs. Singhania: "Bring Veer downstairs please..."

Ramu Kaka: "Yes mam."

And after a while... Veer came downstairs: "Yes Mom...?" - Just then he saw SwaRagini with their parents. Ragini smiled to him and waved her hand but Veer ignored her and went to take blessing from Shekhar and Sharmishta.

Veer's mother: "Here is our son, Veer!" - she looked at Veer - "Veer we were talking about yours and Swara's wedding..."

She explained him what they decided.

Veer looked at Ragini. He recalled how his granDurga Parsada put his hand in Swara's one and suddenly also a flash of a girl leaving his hand came in his mind. He shut his eyes.

He looked down and said: "Yes Mom... as you wish."

A smile came on everyone's face, except Swara and Veer.

Mrs. Singhania: "I'll just bring the rings..."

And with that she went to take the rings.

ON THE OTHER HAND

Sanskar and Laksh were in their car. Sanskar was driving. Suddenly Laksh's phone rang...

Laksh: "Hello? Yes Maa?!... What? Really?" - A smile came on his face - "Yes Maa of course... we're coming!"

He cut the call and looked at Sanskar: "Sanskar... Veer's dad and Papa know each other and they called us to attend Swara and Veer's wedding. And Papa wants us to come back to home at least till the wedding..."

Sanskar: "Why?"

Laksh laughed sarcastically: "For his so called respect in the society. He surely doesn't want to show to his friend, I mean to Veer's dad, that he kicked us out of home because we failed at the exams. What do you think? That he is missing us?"

Sanskar: "So why are we going there?! You don't like Bade Papa and you don't usually listen to him..."

Laksh: "For Maa! I'm missing her! It's been a long time after all..."

Sanskar completed the sentence: "Since we had food made by Badi Mom! Let's go then... let's go back home Bro!"

Sanskar headed back towards Maheshwari Mansion.

LATER

Laksh and Sanskar knocked at the MM's door. Both were hiding their faces behind 2 bouquets. A lady opened the door. It was Annapurna.

Annapurna looked at them: "Who are you?"

Sanskar: "We went so far that you forgot us?"

Laksh: "It's not fair! We miss you everyday!"

Annapurna smiled: "Laksh! Sanskar!"

The 2 removed the bouquet from in front of their faces and shouted: "Surprise!!"

They hugged Annapurna from side: "We missed you a lot Mom!"

Annapurna put her hand on their cheeks smiling: "I missed you both too!"

Just then a car came and stopped in front of the door. Annapurna and SanLak looked on.

The door of the car opened and Durga Parsad came out.

Sanskar and Laksh's smile disappeared. They became serious and looked at Annapurna who shook her head: "He's your Papa and Bade papa!"

Durga Parsad walked towards them without any expression on his face. He stopped in front of SanLak. They took his blessings touching his feet. He didn't react... just said: "Are you thinking to fail this year too or are you putting efforts in your studies?"

Laksh and Sanskar looked at him angrily but they didn't say a word.

Durga Parsad went inside the house followed by Sanskar, Laksh and Annapurna.

ON THE OTHER SIDE

Ragini, Swara and their parents entered back in their house. All except Swara, who was looking down, were happy.

Ragini: "Maa bring sweets!! I am very happy today so I will eat a loot of sweets!"

Sharmishta smiled shaking her head.

MAHESHWARI MANSION

Annapurna took some gajar ka halwa (carrot pudding) for Sanskar and Laksh while they were sitting in the hall.

Laksh: "Yay! Maa your gajar ka halwa is unique! You are seriously the best!"

Annapurna: "Stop buttering me!" - She said giggling.

Sanskar ate a tablespoon of halwa and licked his chops: "Badi Mom it's so tasty!! You should give cooking lessons to Mom too!"

Annapurna laughed: "I will give for sure once she is back from USA!"

Durga Parsad came, he was reading some files... just then he looked at Annapurna who was feeding Sanskar and Laksh.

Durga Parsad: "What's happening here?"

Annapurna: "We... I made gajar ka halwa... I'll just bring for you..."

Durga Parsad: "No need. I don't like sweet." - saying this he went away.

GADODIAS HOUSE

Ragini was super excited. She was making a list of the things they needed for the wedding sitting on the living room's sofa while Sharmishta and Swara were in kitchen: "Jewellery and dresses for Swara... catering... music... decorations..."

Shekhar: "And new dressed for you?"

Ragini: "No need for that! I have a lot of suits already!"

Shekhar: "It's your sister's wedding!"

Ragini: "That's why my sister needs to get new dresses and not me! Papa I'm saying na I don't want anything new! No arguments allowed!"

Shekhar: "You are incorrigible!"

Ragini raised her shoulders smiling: "That I am!"

MAHESHWARI MANSION

Durga Parsad came in the living room where Sanskar and Laksh were talking to Annapurna, laughing... but they stopped seeing Durga Parsad.

Durga Parsad: "Mr. Singhania is giving a grand party tomorrow to celebrate Swara and Veer's wedding. They called us. Designer will come, get some good clothes!"

Sanskar: "But Bade Papa what's the need? We already have a lot of clothes..."

Durga Parsad: "Didn't you hear what I said? Grand Party! Will you go with old clothes? What about my respect?"

Laksh was about to say something but Annapurna held his hand to stop him.

Laksh looked down.

NEXT EVENING

SINGHANIA MANSION

The party was going on. There were blue and white drapes and flowers as decorations and a big chanfelier was brightening the hall. The guests were all wearing elegant dresses. Veer's parents and his Granpa were introducing some guests to Veer.

Just then the Maheshwari's entered in the house. Laksh and Sanskar were both wearing dapper black blazers with black trousers.

Durga Parsad and Annapurna went towards Veer's parents to congratulate with them.

Laksh and Sanskar were about to go towards Veer when someone called them from behind: "Laskh... Sanskar..."

They turned and saw Karishma standing in front of them wearing a white elegant lehenga, not so heavy but surely expensive.

Laksh: "What are you doing here?"

Karishma: "Come on Lucky! You know how rich my parents are! We have a quite huge name in business world as well so obviously Veer's parents invited us."

Sanskar: "ok.. bye!"

They were about to turn when Karishma said: "Listen... I'm really sorry!"

Laksh: "Do you think we will forgive you?"

Karishma shook her head: "I know I did wrong... but please give me a chance... I am really really sorry."

Sanskar: "Should we believe you?!"

Karishma: "I don't know... I am just feeling guilty for what I did... but I understand if you don't want to talk with me... I deserve it... Laksh... I don't want you back... I just wanted you to be my friend like before. But if you don't want..."

She looked down and was about to go. Sanskar and Laksh looked at each other. Sanskar nodded to Laksh.

Laksh: "Wait Karishma..." - Karishma looked on - "We forgive you... but if you do something like this again then..." - He said showing her a finger.

Karishma smiled happily: "I won't I promise!"

Laksh smiled removing the finger. Karishma ran towards him and hugged him: "Thank you Laksh for giving me a second chance.. thank you so much..."

Durga Parsad looked at them... and smiled.

He whispered to Annapurna: "Your son has done just one thing right in his life and that's choosing a girl like Karishma!"

Annapurna looked at Laksh and Karishma not so convinced.

GADODIAS HOUSE

Swara's mehndi function was going on. The decorations had bright colors like pink and green combination. Mehndi wali was applying henna on Swara's hands while she was looking down silently. There were Gadodia's neighbors and all were wearing normal suits like traditional indian salwaar kameez. Ladies were playing dholki and their laughter was echoing in Gadodia's house's hall.

Ragini was sitting near Swara and was laughing with the other girls. She held Swara's chin and made her look at her: "Haaye haaye! Look at this shy bride! You are looking like a piece of moon!"

Swara smiled a little bit. Just then Ragini's phone rang. She looked at it: there was a message from Sanskar. She opened it and saw a SanLak's selfie from the party: "Hmmm.... Swara!"

Swara: "What?"

Ragini: "selfie!"

Swara: "Why?"

Ragini: "What why? Don't ask so many questions! Come on!"

Swara: "Won't you stop being childish?"

Ragini: "Never!" - She posed with Swara and took a selfie... and sent it to Sanskar.

After some minutes she received a call from him.

Ragini: "Swara I'll just come!" - she went aside to pick up the call.

Ragini: "Yes Sanskar?"

In Singhania's Mansion Sanskar was leaning against a white pillar and Laksh was standing near him.

Sanskar: "Tell me one thing Ragini... who wears a simple salwar kameez at her sister's mehendi function? You should have gotten ready properly!"

Ragini: "Should I have woren black pant coat suit like you guys?"

Sanskar: "what do you mean?"

Ragini: "You guys look like you are in a funeral! Haven't you ever heard? Lucknow da kurta, pathani salwaar, tab lage mard varna lage bekaar!" (The shirt should be from Lucknow, the pant should be pathani, only then a man looks a man, or else he looks useless!)

Laksh who was listening to the conversation took the phone from Sanskar's hand: "Let me remind you another dialogue of kabhi khushi kabhi ghum! Na lucknow da kurta, na pathani salwaar... mard who hai jo dil dai, warna hai bekaar!" (Not a shirt from Lucknow and not a pathani pant, a man is the one who gives his heart... or else he is useless!)

Ragini: "Impressive! But... you guys don't have brain, and if you give also your heart to someone... how are you planning to live with?" - she laughed.

Laksh: "You..." - but just then someone knocked at his shoulder. It was Karishma.

Karishma: "Come on Laksh! Let's dance!"

Laksh: "No Kar..."

Karishma held his wrist and also Sanskar's: "Come on guys! Put that phone aside today at least!"

Laksh gave the phone to Sanskar while Karishma was dragging them towards the center of the hall.

Sanskar to Ragini: "Ragini I'll call you later!" - he cut the call.

Once, at the center of the hall, Karishma took the mike: "So ladies and gentlemen... pay attention please and welcome our Maheshwaris brothers who will show their swag on the dance floor!"

Everyone clapped.

Sanskar: "Karishma what's all this?

Karishma: "What what? Dance baby! Or have you forgotten it?" - She grinned and was about to go when the light turned off.

She turned. Spotlight on Laksh and Sanskar. Laksh's back was merged to Sanskar's one and their arms were crossed.

Sanskar: "one.."

Laksh: "two..".

Both: "three..."

Music of ''say shava shava'' started on background and Sanskar started to walk towards the left while Laksh towards the right...

''Say Shava Shava Say Shava Shava
Say Shava Shava Say Shava Shava...''

They started to dance looking towards Karishma.

''Roop Hai Tera Sona Soni Teri Payal
Chanchana Chhan Aise Chhanke Karde Sab Ko Ghayal
Keh Raha Aankhon Ka Kaajal Ishq Mein Jeena Marna..''
("Your beauty is golden, beautiful are your anklets
They tinkle in such a way, mesmerizing everybody
The kohl on your eyes say, for the love I live and for the love I die.."

They ran towards Karishma and danced in front of her as per to challenge her.

''Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava...''

Karishma smirked and started to dance..

''Roop Hai Mera Sona Soni Meri Payal
Chanchana Chhan Aise Chhanke Karde Sab Ko Ghayal..''
("My beauty is golden, beautiful are my anklets.
They tinkle in such a way, mesmerizing everybody!")

Laksh went behind her.

''Hey Keh Raha Aankhon Ka Kaajal Ishq Mein Jeena Marna..''

Karishma and SanLak continued to dance, while everyone was smiling. Only Veer was standing alone.

''Mahiya Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava...''

ON THE OTHER SIDE

GADODIAS HOUSE

Also Ragini started to dance leading a group of girls.

''Mahiya We Aaja Maahi Mahiya We Aaja
Mahiya We Aaja Maahi Mahiya We Aaja..''
("Come beloved, come my love...")

Ragini held Sharmishta's hand and dragged her to dance with her.

''Mahiya We Aaja Maahi Mahiya We Aaja
Mahiya We Aaja Maahi Mahiya We Aaja..''

SINGHANIA MANSION

Sanskar, Laksh and KArishma were leading a ''train'' of persons keeping to dance.

''Say Shava... ishq shava..
Shava Shava... ishq shava...''

GADODIAS HOUSE

Ragini and Sharmishta took Swara with them and forced her to dance with them a punjabi bhangra.

''Aaja Gori Nachle Ay Shava Nachle We Nachle Ay Shava
Aaja Gori Nachle Ay Shava Nachle We Nachle Ay Shava..''
("Come beautiful, dance!")

MEANWHILE

Sanskar was dancing in the crowd when suddenly Ragini in salwar kameez appeared in front of his eyes.

''Dekha Tenu Pehli Pehli Baar We...
Hone Laga Dil Bekaraar We..''
("Since I saw you for the first time,
my heart has started being restless")

Laksh was in the same situation. Also he was imagining Ragini while dancing.

''Raba Mainu Ki Ho Gaya.. Dil Jaaniye..
Haay Mainu Ki Ho Gaya''
("God what has happened to me, what has happened to my heart?")

But they returned in reality when Karishma started to sing going to Laksh.

''Sun Ke Teri Baatein Sone Yaar We Mahi Mainu Tere Naal Pyaar We
Hay Main Mar Jaawa Dil Jaaniye Haay Main Mar Jaawa ..''
("Listening to your talks, I fell for you
I fell in love with you my beloved,
I will die for you, o my dear, I will die for you...")

All started to dance again. All except Veer who was looking at all this angrily.

''Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava
Mahiya Say Shava Shava...''

In Gadodia's house all were enjoying the bhangra too.

''Say Shava Shava
Say Shava Shava..''

A couple dance started in Singhania Mansion while in Gadodia's house they continued with their energetic dance. Swara was enjoying dancing too. It was like she forgot her situation staying with her family.

While dancing Laksh stopped and stared at Annapurna who was laughing and clapping seeing his sons enjoying the dance.

He went towards her and touched her feet.

''In Kadmon Mein Saasein Waar De...
Rab Se Bhi Zyaada Tujhe Pyaar De..''
("May my last breath be at your feet...
I will love you more than I love God...")

Also Sanskar went towards them and took blessings from Annapurna.

''Rabba Maino Maaf Karen..
Rabba Khairiya Hai... Maino Maaf Karen...''

("May God forgive me,
For the sake of my good-will, may you forgive me...")

Annapurna put her hands on their cheeks and hugged them.

ON THE OTHER HAND

Ragini stopped dancing staring at Shekhar who was sitting and clapping at the rhythm of the music. She went towards him and hugged him.

''Tum To Meri Jind Meri Jaan We...
Meri Tu Zameen Hai Aasmaan We...''
("You are my soul, my life
You are my earth, my heaven...")

Swara ran towards them and hugged Shekhar too.

''Tujh Bin Main Ki Kara
Rabba Khairya Haay Wa Main Ki Kara...''
("What will I do without you?
For the sake of my good-will, what will I do?")

The fast music started again... and while in Singhania's mansion they kept their ''elegant atmosphere'' in Gadodia's house they continued with bhangra and the loud music.

Suddenly Veer angrily held a vase and threw it on the floor. The music stopped immediately and all looked at him. He ran upstairs leaving everyone shocked.

CHAPTER ENDS

Precap: Veer decides to tell the truth to Ragini.
Laksh's heartbreak
Sanskar opens a door and enters in a room where a girl is standing giving him the back.

I hope I didn't bore you much... it's time for the real story to start now!
