Mumbai Calling

Murali in Present :

She was a very innocent pure soul who appeared like a scared chicken....She use to talk very softly and respectfully her looks were shabby.....A typical village girl with loads of oiled pleated hair,wearing a lehenga choli with long dupatta...Few glass bangels, Minimum jewellery no make up as i hailed from city where girls were all decked up with fake make up she made me feel that such purity still exist...She had never seen an outside world nor was able to operate gadgets.... But yes one thing she surely knew and that was to win hearts....

Shamoli : (looking at swara ) Murali ,she slept...Wait i'll wake her and ask to lie down properly...

Swara was calmly sleeping holding sanskars hand while her head resting besides his wounded body...As if world around doesn't exist its only them...Why not after 2 long years she has got him and now he is safe at least better then before

Shamoli was about to go to her but murali stopped her let her sleep she has not slept peacefully since last two years....She is at peace today only she knows what she has got...... I'll continue from where we left as it is she is not aware of it.....

Present end

Flahback swara story from Murali's POV

I went into sanskars room....we were there for a hydro power project which was handled by sanskar on behalf of Maheshwari group of companies.....It had lot of opposition from the locals and panchayat heads.... Sanskar was hell bent to complete this at any cost...we were suppose to leave the next day as sanskar had to join back college he had returned from london was going to complete his medical in India then he was in third year....After today's meeting with the panchayat heads and some local people who are opposing this project.... .He told me something which pulled the land below my feet

Sanskar : She is wife of Kanhaiyalal sethi 

(My breath was caught in my throat for a second it was like snatching a prey from one animal who was hungry)

Murali's explains shamoli about KS and Sanskar link and his reason of worrying

KS is Sanskar's biggest rival who stands against the maheshwari's for this project as village representative....He is cousin of sanskars bade papa....They are distant relatives....He even planned attacks on sanskar so he backs out from this project not once but twice.... He doesn't want progress of village as he thinks it'll hamper his position and also because the property on which it is going to be made is their ancestral property and he wants share in it......At this moment sheltering his wife means putting oil in fire....We knew that day earlier news was making round in village that his wife ran away with some random guy.....KS was searching her as an wounded animal ready to pounce and kill her, he was mad on her......I knew it as i had been to the project spot in the morning there i heard people talking among themselves about her....

Murali : I think we must tell him and get her back to her house....There is no need of increasing enemity....As it is they are behind you....

Sanskar : We are not doing anything at such....She will not go anywhere till she herself is ready or want to...

We both had argument but sanskar being one stubborn person was not ready to send her back at any cost....I kept silent and we left for the meeting.....Sanskar was thinking its not safe to leave swara but i said its fine because her enemy will be with us in the meeting so it is safe...little did i know she had many more enemies then we thought.......No conclusion was drawn in the meeting but sanskar said that his people will start the work...If anyone interferes he'll take them to the court....After the argument and draining discussion we left towards farmhouse...it was damn tiring, poor sanskar driving his loving SUV in that uneven way......Whole body was crushed and squeezed of last drop of energy....body and head were  paining like hell...

Power cuts were very common in village it was getting darker as the night approached it was heavily pouring outside....We had just come back from meeting......on  enquiring from servants i got to know that swara had not come out of the room for the whole day neither had anything... 

Sanskar looked worried he immediately approached towards her room before he could reach she came running out of nowhere in dark and collided with him she was completely scared and sweating badly....She fell in his arm as she collided and twisted her leg......Both saw each other under the dim light of the diya that was burning in the mandir....She was lost in his eyes....He made her stand on her feet wind was blowing heavily Diya was flickering not able to withstand the heavy wind.......her eyes were showing many emotions but there was a shine in them as if she was very happy seeing him.....Her eyes widened her eyebrows constricted she was scared observing something behind sanskar, in a flick of moment she held him and turned him around hugging him.... there was a strong wind blow and every thing was dark......As he held her he found her back wet but before he could say or act lights were on and scene infront of us left us dumbstruck....

Sanskars complete white suit was drenched in blood and swara was unconcious in his arm...A man standing behind her with dagger in his hand.....Before the man could run i caught hold of him slapped him and with full force grounded him making the dagger fall.....

sanskar was in dire pain he was trying to wake her up patting her cheeks but she was unconcious.....But something that striked me was sanskar his hands were bleeding actually he didn't let the man stab swara ...As he saw the man's reflection in her eyes before she turned him....he had held the dagger at right moment and the person pulled it back causing deep cut, causing sanskars hand to bleed.....he held swara in one hand and the dagger in other and while he withdraw in process to balance swara smeared blood on his cloth and on her also.....

Before i could say something sanskar lifted swara in bridal style to her room he was shocked at the scenario complete room was a mess and on observing swara carefully he found marks on her body as if she had struggled to come out of someones grip.....His anger can  be seen in his eyes.....I handed over the man to guards.....From the man we got to know KS had sent him to kill sanskar....He was later handed over to the local police.... I came to swara's room, also called doctor....doctor came and checked swara and informed she is very weak and stressed needs complete rest.....he also bandaged sanskars hand as he left i decided to speak to sanskar...

Murali : sanskar, tommorrow morning we are going back as planned....

Sanskar : hmmm...I need to join college can't delay....

Murali : What about her? Lets inform her family they will take her...we would be out of the responsibility...Again that ba**ard tried to harm you its getting serious....

Sanskar : (calmly) She is going with us....her life is at risk.....

Murali ( surprised ) R u mad ? this is not possible....how can we without her permission....

Sanskar : You will talk to her, rest is my headache  just do the bookings for her.... (determined voice )Mumbai is calling her so, she'll go

I just didn't want to carry the mess along but i knew if sanskar said then he'll do it and no one can stop him......so, i just stayed mum....when swara got up after an hour all she was concerned was about sanskarji.....i assured he was fine and also told her about sanskar's decision to my surprise she agreed without second thought.....I also did all the booking....One of our servant got cloth for swara she changed and we three left the village early in the morning.....sanskar was driving i was sitting in the passenger seat and swara was sitting behind....In this whole time they both didn't speak to each other but i always felt their silence spoke volumes for them.....

It was the first time swara was travelling outside her village.....Little did we know she has not even seen anything outside the boundaries of her house or travelled in any vehicle....Journey till airport was fine but at airport many girls were making fun of swara because of her looks and attire.....She was least bothered but one person who didn't like it was sanskar anger was clearly visible on his face...

Finally our flight was announced and we left sanskar was sitting next to swara and i was sitting at the back....We were in business class....As take off announcement was made swara started panicking and her scream were make everyone turn their head in our direction making us embarassed....

She was very scared and sweating badly....Sanskar started shouting at her saying if you can't sit properly at least behave properly all sorts of rubbish...First i got angry but once the flight was in mid air he stopped....I got to know he was just diverting her...But poor swara she was completely unaware why sanskar did so she was silenty sobbing....Finally when were about to land she held sanskars hand tightly and he wispered in her ear its my hand and not flour dough don't squeeze it so hard my bones will break....She gave a hearty smile holding her dupatta between her teeth yes still she was covering her head....He kept on distracting her till we landed this time it was bit calmer......

When we reached airport fleet of cars were waiting for us with security....Swara was looking at everything with wide open mouth everything was new to her.....Media was hovering just to get a click of The young bachelor Sanskar Maheshwari as he hardly gave any public appearances....As the lad came out of flight in his all in all Black look wearing his killer attitude.....Almost half the girl fainted when his lip curved and when they saw a village nerd behind him covering her face with veil speculations started wave around but before anyone could say or do anything as instructed by sanskar swara was taken into car without anyone even getting a glimpse....Everyone thought her to be yet another passenger....so nothing was out in media about the new import of an antic piece by sanskar maheshwari ( Spoke the last line giving a loud laugh)

Finally after a long tiring journey we reached Mumbai our home sweet home...where we stayed means me,sanskar and the maheshwari's....Though maheshwari's had wide spread business empire and mansions this was their base.....As main head office was in mumbai drive of 2 hours from here this was in panvel outskirts of mumbai nearing to Pune.....One of the serene locations on the outskirts..... As we had to travel to Pune branch and sometimes in mumbai this place was carefully chosen to give us access to travel at our comfort.....Here we had 2 mansion Maheshwari and SS mansion both were big and lavish...They were talk of the town with its beautiful engraved look....

Intro to sanskar and murali relationship 

Sanskar and me stayed together in SS mansion this "ss" (sanskar & shona) it was a secret initial we knew it later ......till then we knew the second s is his dream girl's initial no one knew who she was not even me.....it  was the name given by sanskar to his dream home he separated from maheshwari mansion 2 years back when he joined business on the pretext of having privacy......Sanskar was just 17years when he stepped into business world at 19 years he was threat to the master minds......But only i knew how alone he was .....He was not giving privacy to himself but to others....

I and sanskar were childhood friends from the time we know ourselves we know each other....My dad worked with Dr Ramprasad Maheshwari sanskar's father he was his best friend and secret keeper....After my dad's death in a mishap sanskar's dad adopted me and we lived together but fate was not in our favour we lost sanskars parents when sanskar was 10 years old i was 9 years then......Sanskar nurtured me as his little brother... 

He was a happy go lucky boy but something changed when he joined business and took the charge of his life..... He was just 17 when he took over the charge of maheshwari hospitals and drowned himself in work and studies.....We had a group of friends but at such he never mingled with any one.....He turned into rough,arrogant and stubborn person....The real sanskar was hidding inside him may be scared of getting broken.....He had made himself very strong no one could enter his premises or heart without his wish....He kept his pain to himself....even i was not allowed to invade his pain privacy.....

SS mansion was even more beautiful then maheshwari mansion because it was carefully made by top designers and architect from around the world as per young maheshwari's taste and style....Why not it was sanskar's dream home...The house was like a fort completely secured... Sanskar had added every articraft which were unique and specially designed for the specific set up....All rooms were big and lavish sanskar is very specific about his taste and styling sense..... It had a big garden with variety of coloured flower adoring and welcoming.....It had swimming pool,gym,party area,,big parking area in basement for Sanskar's choicest love his cars and bikes sports and the new editions....

Puja room is just made out of his love for his mother's loving Kanhaji but except our favourite Gods and godesses no one else bothered much about it,,,,,He is a tough aethist who didn't believed in God...Only me  and servant went in that room....It has a calm feeling and a beautiful tall murthy of kanhaji is placed there if you sit and stare it for sometime you will feel kanhaji himself talking....Its so lively special handemade from rajasthan village artisan under sanskars guidance......

 He loves things which are delicate to handle has unique choices......Here, we come to one more revelation sanskar is a very good singer and also he plays variety of instruments so there is a big music room where sanskar sang behind the close doors..... That room is called Amore (which means love in french) Whenever he is angry,happy or sad he will go into the room and sing his heart out......Though sanskar was rude and spoke with attitude everyone around loved him because he would never stay behind to help anyone or go to any extent to help anyone in distress.....He was gem of a person with loads of pain hidden pain....


Mumbai A city that never sleeps....a city of dreams where in a day loads of dreams are seen and shattered....It has space for everyone in its heart.....Beautiful emotions and varied culture its a mix of various flavours....From street Vada pavs to home cook food people would share everything....So is this place going to change her fate or pushing her towards something unlikely....

What are sanskaars intentions behind getting swara to mumbai?

Is swara out of danger?

Will she again be like a prisoner or would be allowed to live life?
