Manik - Hold on everyone..!! Can anyone please tell me where is Nandini

Just then Rishabh came running down the stairs

Rishabh - Di is not in her room..I checked everywhere

Abhi - What do you mean by she is not in her room..she went upstairs to her room..none of us saw us coming down..where can she go unless the stairs take her to somewhere else

Manik- To the terrace..Rishabh did you check the terrace..??

Rishabh - No Manik bhaiya..I'll just go..!!

Chacha - Hold on Rishabh..!! Manik you go..she won't say anything to any of us right now..!!

As if waiting for someone to say it, Manik rushed upstairs in a nanosecond and true to his instincts he found his love standing there intently gazing at the stars. He took a deep breath and took a few steps to stand next to her. They stood there in silence for good ten minutes until Nandini spoke

Nandini - My parents used to live in Delhi when my mom was pregnant with me..5 days before my birth, Appa had gone to the station to pick up Chacha Chachi..they had just reached the last step of the overbridge when they heard a blast on the platform they were at just a few minutes ago..they just escaped death by a whisker..Everyone took a sigh of relief when they saw them alive at hospital where Mom was admitted..they thought I was the lucky charm that saved their lives but that was until i was born and Aththai asked one of her trusted astrologers to make my horoscope, that's when all the hell broke loose..he said I am unlucky for my parents..Appa countered it by citing the blast escape as an example but the astrologer apparently said that I was reason the blast happened and it was their good fortune that saved them..!!

Manik - What rubbish..!!

Nandini - I know that was exactly what Appa said...I mean that's what Amma told me and Abhi when Aththai blamed me for Amma Appa passing away...They were returning from an event..I was alone at home with the servants..Appa was posted in Hyderabad at that time..there was this Kulfi vendor in Ameerpet whose Kulfi was my favourite..it was getting late at night so Appa called on landline from one of the telephone booths, mobiles were not that popular at that time..he asked me if I had dinner and finished my homework.. I replied in positive and asked him to come home early...he said they are on the way, asked me to watch television and they will be home by the time my favourite cartoon ends..then I spoke with mom for a few seconds..Happily I disconnected the call not knowing that this would be the last conversation I was having with them..about an hour later the landline rang again and my world turned upside down in a few seconds...Amma Appa had met with an accident about 50 mtrs from the Kulfi Shop...Apparently they drove to the shop to get kulfi for me but trust me Manik I didn't ask them to get Kulfi...I just wanted them back home, that's all...but they never came back..Eversince then, Aththai blames me for their demise, in her words...I am "Bad Luck"and she wants me to stay away from the Abhi's wedding because apparently it is because of my presence that the garlands to be used for the wedding got dried out...!!

Manik – Dried Out...I mean how..??

Nandini – By mistake one of the attendants kept the basket, here on the terrace and the flowers got dried up...and so

Manik – Listen...Its unfortunate that this happened but you are nowhere responsible for this...I don't care what your Bua says or believes but dare you let her words affect you...Trust me the marriage will be cancelled if you decide to leave..!!

Nandini – Hold on Mister...Who said I am leaving..??

Manik – Umm...Amms asked dadi will it be okay if you are not a part of the wedding but before you misunderstand her, Amms wanted to show your Bua how flawed and primitive her believes are..and Dadi along with every family member stood by Amms..!!

Nandini – Ok...first of all I am not leaving...it is my brother's wedding...I won't miss it for the world...Infact even if Abhi and Mukti come here and asks me leave, even then I won't leave...secondly I guess me rushing up suddenly might have got Amms worried...I came up because...

Manik – Because you were missing your parents...!!

Nandini – Hmm..I just wanted sometime for myself before I start thinking about the way to sort the mess of garland unavailability...!!

Manik – So done with you own time...or do you need more space...!!

Nandini – I guess I am done....everyone who's standing on stairs can also come in now..!!

As if waiting for the que the family rushed in and enveloped Nandini in a hug. Amms hugged her from front while Dadi back hugged her. Abhi and Mukti's parents wrapped their hands around the trio and the rest encircled them forming a round. As if showing to the world that they were her protective shield, everyone cocooned the angel in the center in their protective embrace.

Nandini – People I can't breathe

Everyone dispersed making way for the air to pass in

Amms – Kanna You are fine right...!!

Dadi – I know you know this but still beta let me tell you once again , you don't have to worry about what everyone says...we are and will always be with you..!!

Nandini – I know that Amms and Dadi, and don't worry I am absolutely fine...I think we should just head down for dinner now and then go off to sleep...Tomorrow is a big day..!!

Cabir – You are such a savior Nandini...you know the rats and elephants in my stomach had just started to create a havoc...Come fast lets go..!!

Everyone laughed at Cabir while Manik silently admired his buddy's effortless effort to lighten up the atmosphere around. Soon everyone moved to the dinner table and savored their taste buds with the scrumptious and delightful yummy meal spread. The dried garlands too became the topic of discussion with the elders suggesting the possible way outs. Finally Abhi and Mukti ended the conversation saying that they have found a way out and everyone will get to know what it is tomorrow. Later around 10 o'clock, they started dispersing to their respective rooms to grab some sleep when Abhi silently whispered in Manik's ear,

Abhi – Take care of her

Manik looked at him surprised,

Abhi – I know you won't let her stay alone tonight, so when you sneak in her room after everyone sleeps just make sure she is fine...Don't let her cry too much

Manik gave him a sheepish grin, the kinds you give when you get caught but are still safe.

Abhi – Good and let me know before you plan to exit tomorrow, I'll make sure Amms and the elders are not around for owing to the wedding tomorrow, they would be waking up really early.

Just then Amms and Dadi approached Manik

Amms – Manik..!!

Manik – yes Amms...Do you need something...!!

Amms – Me and your Dadi were thinking if you could stay with Nandu tonight, she won't say it but she is really scared and tensed tonight...I would have slept with her but knowing her she would outrightly reject the idea...So I thought maybe you could do that..

Dadi – Aray don't worry Shabana...Manik will stay with her...Right Manik..

Manik nodded in approval while Abhi stood there in a state of shock. Amms thanked Manik and moved ahead to attend other relatives

Dadi – Manik sometimes sneaking around with permission is also fun (Dadi hugged him and whispered in his ears) Also now that you don't have to wake up early to sneak out of Nandu's rooms without notice, make sure you have a proper sleep (she broke the hug and continued)...Give me your room keys...I guess the pillows on your bed can be put into a better use than creating a human form hidden in a blanket..!!

Manik looked at his Dadi shocked and muttered "Damn she knew I wasn't there last night"

Dadi – Of course I did Manu...I am your Dadi in case you've forgotten

Manik – Of course not Dadi...how can I..??...Acha please go and sleep now, it already quite late..Good night Dadi..!!

Dadi – Good night..!!

Abhi spoke after Dadi left..

Abhi – You were in Nandu's room last night...!!

Manik – Umm...I don't know what you are talking about...I think I should rush to her room now..!!

Saying this Manik made a quick escape

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inside Nandini room,

Manik opened the door only to be welcomed by a flying pillow hitting his nose

Manik – Damn girl...what's wrong with you..??

Nandini – Where the hell were you...??...You know I have been waiting for you..!!

Manik – Why...?? Were you expecting me here..??...But You toh didn't ask me accompany you even once..??.. Woh toh I thought of checking up on you before leaving to my room to sleep..!! I am not planning to stay here tonight...!!

Nandini – Ya right and I have grown two horns over my head...Manik don't irritate me na please..!!

Manik – Acha baba...okay..!!

Manik took the empty place beside Nandini and lied down. Nandini placed her head on his chest. In a couple of minutes Manik felt his vest getting a little wet and he immediately tightened his hold around her frame signifying that he's there. She turned her head to look at him. One look at her teary eyes made his eyes watery too for tonight both missed their parents. They kept looking at each other with the pain of missing their parents flowing mercilessly from their eyes. They caressed each faces from time to time but none of them tried to stop the tears because both knew sometimes it is okay to let to them flow...!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was 7 in the morning and the sun peeped in from the windows disturbing the precious sleep of the two souls who were happily cocooned in each other's embrace. To avoid the disturbance, Nandini snuggled more into Manik's chest when she hear a knock on the door. Startled she opened her eyes and got up in a hurry awaking Manik too in the process.

Manik – What is this Nandini...You could have woken up aaram se na..??

Nandini – Aaram...have you lost it Manik...there is someone at the door and you are still in the room, why didn't you sneak out early morning...Now what will we do..?? What if someone sees you here..?? I mean Aiyappa please help...What should I do..??

Before Manik could pacify her, Supriya who was waiting on the other side of the door spoke.

Supriya – Nandini Manik get up...It is already 7 in the morning... People will start coming in soon..!!

Nandini – Manik its Chachi...oh Crap..You heard na what she said...Nandini Manik get....Hold on..!! Chachi knows you are here..??

Manik – Finally your train of thoughts came to a halt...(Stealing a morning Kiss from a shocked Nandini, Manik Continued) Good Morning Nandu..!! Wait let me open the door first, Aunty is waiting..!!

Manik got up to open the door while Nandini sat glued to the bed. Manik greeted Supriya by touching her feet

Supriya – Good Morning Manik...Stay blessed

Supriya kissed his forehead in return

Manik – Good Morning Aunty (Just then Manik noticed a big jute Basket with flowers in Supriya's hands, taking it from her he spoke) Aunty what is this...??

Supriya – (spoke while entering in the room) This is Abhi and Mukti's idea to overcome the garland fiasco... There is letter in here for you Nandu, explaining what you have to do..!!

Getting no response, Supriya's attention got diverted towards her daughter who was sitting there shocked. She looked at Manik and raised her eyebrows asking the reason. Manik smiled, shook his head and finally moved towards the statue Nandini, Taking her face in his palms he made her look at him and spoke softly

Manik – Not just Aunty...Uncle, Amms, Dadi, Raj Chachu, Nyeo Chachi, Fab5, Rishabh, Abhi, Navya, well Basically our inner circle everyone knew that I was staying with you last night...In fact it was Amms who suggested the idea... Now that your doubt is clear will you please acknowledge Surpriya Aunty's presence here?

Nandini – Everyone knew...!!

Manik – Yup...everyone..!!

Nandini – okay...Umm Sorry Chachi woh...leave it...Good Morning Chachi...I love you...What's in the basket..??

Supriya – Good Morning Nandu...I love you too Bachha...Abhi and Mukti want you to make the wedding garland for them...There's a letter in the basket, it has answers to all your question...get ready and start making the garland after having your breakfast...Mind it you won't even touch the flowers in the basket without having Breakfast, all you can do is to read the letter...and Manik I think you should also move to your suite...Being the brother your presence would be required there now..!!

Manik – Sure Chachi..I'll just leave in a couple of minutes..!!

Supriya – Okay Then, I'll leave...See you at the breakfast table Nandu..!!

Manik took out the letter and gave it to Nandini as soon as Supriya left,

"Baby Doll,

Whatever happened last night was unfortunate, now that we need new garlands, we think they should be hand-made by you and hence we are sending these flowers and threads to assist you with it. We wish to carry a bit of you with us during the rituals and what's better than a wearing a garland that has been made by you. It is our wish and we hope you won't mind fulfilling it..!!

Love,

Abhi & Mukti"

The letter left Nandini teary eyed while Manik carefully wiped them off

Nandini – You know in case you meet them outside, just tell them I love them and it would be my honor to make the garlands for them

Manik – I will do that..Ok now...Bye...See you later...!!

About an hour later, Nandini started working on the garland taking three roses, tying them together and eventually slipping the bunch into the big thread. Halfway through the first garland an idea stuck her and she rushed to her bag and took out the pair. Carefully she tied one of the items of the pair in the center and continued with adding bunches to the thread, till the desired length was reached. She did the same with the other set of garland and placed them safely in the basket. She then moved to getting ready as instructed by Supriya since it was a day wedding and time on the clock was almost 10:30 in the morning.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The wedding venue looked spectacular with the canopies beautifully decorated with pink, white and gold flowers. The Mandap was covered with a vintage wooden canopy on the top and floral décor and drapes on the sides. The stage looked spectacular with a floral canopy over the couch in the centre and Satin drapes and flower patterns creating a beautiful back drop.

Neyonika was drapped in a golden net sequined saree with a embroidery patch at the end of her Pallu while Raj wore a cream and gold sherwani and coupled it with a Golden Turban. Supriya and Raman looked elegant in turquoise green matching outfits with Supriya wearing a plain Silk Sari with golden border and floral embroidered blouse and Raman opting for a Silk teal green Shervani with golden embroidered appliques. Dadi and Amms and kept it relatively simple with a light silk sarees.

Cabir and Navya looked elegant in a green and peach lehenga and Shewarni combo while Dhruv and Aliya stole hearts with a Dark Beige and golden lehenga and sherwani. Ayraman and Myra opted for white and Pink combination while Rishabh kept it very simple with a peach and grey sherwani

Manik and Nandini, as instructed by Abhi and Mukti looked every bit of bride and groom themselves owing to the clothes and accessories they wore which were chosen by their respective siblings. According to Abhi and mukti in order to keep it simple, their siblings often underplayed it on most occasions and hence they had decided to finalize the outfit and accessories for them. Nandini looked ravishing in a light blue lehenga with a peach and golden floral and applique embroidery while Manik caught all the eyeballs in a cream sherwani with multi coloured floral embroidery. Cabir couldn't keep himself from complementing and teasing the ethereal and royal couple in front of him

Cabir – Manik and Nandini you do know it is not your wedding..Right..!!

Aryaman – Waise if you think about it, you two can also tie the knot here, they say na , "Mauka bhi hain or dastoor bhi", what say..!!

Manik – Hogaya..!!...listen lets go and meet Abhi...Poor guy is sitting all alone on the stage.

Everyone headed to meet Abhi who got up to hug his friends and family.

Cabir – Hey Man, just a pink turban, I thought you'll be wearing a pink Sherwani remember the fight you and Mukti had over it a day before we left for Mussorie.

Manik – Oh Yes Man.. what happened to Pink Sherwani..!!

Abhi – Listen the max I can wear is pink turban, please donot expect a thing more than that..I had to wear a cream outfit to tone down the brightness that pink brings with it...any which ways these golden embroideries and the fabric is too heavy..!! ...Remind me why can't I get married wearing a shirt and a trouser..!!

Nandini – Really Abhi..Imagine Mukti's plight she's half your weight and she has to wear an outfit twice her weight...that reminds me I think we should get Mukti here as well..!!

Abhi – About that Manik, listen get Mukti in the hall only when I message you..Okay..!!

Manik – Why..??

Abhi – Because there is a Surprise for her...I'll need ten to fifteen minutes to arrange for it...so please don't spoil my surprise...!!

Manik – Ok if you say so...lets go guys..!!...Umm Aryaman Mukti messaged me, she wanted to meet you...so come along..!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Manik, Cabir, Dhruv and Aryaman entered Mukti's room along with Alya and Navya. Raj, Neyonika and Dadi were already present in the room. Manik found his family getting emotional and so to lighten up the environment, he spoke

Manik – Mukti...I have your sneakers ready...wanna Run away..??

Mukti – Why would I run away...??

Manik – Well you are crying so I thought maybe you're having double thoughts..!!...

Mukti – No thanks I am very certain about getting married..!!

Manik – Are you Sure..??

Mukti – Positive..!!

Manik – So its time then..!!

Cabir – Let me get the Phoolon ki Chaddar...!!

Mukti – Umm Aryaman...listen initially it was planned that dad would hold one end of the chaddar along with these three but I really want him by my side..Like it happens in white weddings, the father giving away the bride so if you don't mind can you please hold the other end please..!!

Aryaman – I will be an honour for me Mukti..!!

Mukti – Ok all set...let me just check...!!

Manik – What check...!! nothing's gonna change with your last minute checks..!!

Mukti – Dadiiii....!!

Dadi – Manik don't tease her...!!

Manik – Aray Dadi all I am saying is she is already looking like a princess and the last minute checks won't alter that..let's go..!!

Everyone laughed but the laughter frizzled out as soon as Mukti got up. She looked every bit of princess rather a Queen in her off white silk lehenga and with overall floral embroidery leaving everyone stunned in awe of the beauty in front of them. The bridal jewelry added to the royal quotient. Raj came forward and hugged her before taking her hand and walking out.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mukti made an entry with Raj by her side, Dadi and Neyonika just behind them with Navya and Alya following on either side. Manik and Cabir held the front legs of the canopy while Aryaman and Dhruv held the back legs.

However a voice made everyone held their steps, a voice that belonged to Abhi.

Abhi – You know generally whenever a bride enters, we here a few set songs being played in the background. The songs that were written ages ago, so today when my bride enters the stage should I let the same old songs to play...Nah that's so cliché...so ditching the cliché, please welcome my sister Nandini on the Guitar and my brother Rishabh on the Paino while me on the vocals as together we officially welcome my love in our lives, predominantly in mine...So what are we waiting for Siblings please start with the music and the bride crew please get moving

https://youtu.be/gC1PU2kFs64

Na Kasme Hain Na Rasme Hain Na Shikwe Hain Na Vaade Hain

Ek Surat Bholi Bhaali Hai Do Naina Seedhe Saadhe Hain

Do Naina Seedhe Saade Hain

Aaisa Hi Roop Khayaalon Mein Tha Aaisa Maine Socha Tha

Chand Si Mehbooba Ho Meri Kab Aaisa Maine Socha Tha

Haan Tum Bilkul Waisi Ho Jaisa Maine Socha Tha

Meri Khushiyan Hi Na Baatein Mere Gham Bhi Sehna Chaahe

Dekhe Na Khawaab Woh Mehlon Ke Mere Dil Mein Rehna Chaahe

Mere Dil Mein Rehna Chaahe

Is Duniya Mein Kaun Tha Aaisa Jaisa Maine Socha Tha

Chand Si Mehbooba Ho Meri Kab Aaisa Maine Socha Tha

Haan Tum Bilkul Waisi Ho Jaisa Maine Socha Tha

By then Mukti had reached the stage and Raj handed over her hand to Abhi. Taking Abhi's support mukti climbed up the stage. They stood there facing each other when Abhi wiped out the tear that dropped down from Mukti's eyes.

Abhi – If you are not my dream come true, then you for sure are the one I wish to make all my dreams come true with....If you are not the missing part of my puzzle, then you for sure are the one I wish to find the missing puzzles of my life's crossword with... we might not complete one another but together we complete our world... So Ms. Mukti Malhotra will your grant me the honor of adding my surname beside yours and let the world know you as Mrs Mukti Malhotra Murthy from now on.

Mukti – I do..!!

Pandit – Varmala ka samay ho gaya hain (It is time to exchange the garlands)

Amms - Nandu, get the varmalas Kanna..!!

Nandini – just a minute Amms... (gesturing him to come along she called) Manik..!!

Soon, Manik along with Nandini came with two big plates with the garland kept in them. Cabir and Navya took the plate from them for the time being as they reach the stage while Manik help Nandini to climb up the stage. Abhi noticed something shining in the garland and a closer look was enough to tell him what it was. He held it in his hands and caressed it gently. He looked at Nandini and on the cue she spoke

Nandini – You know you guys are sweethearts...you gave me an opportunity to actually make this on my own. Mukti this golden rose that you see in the centre, these are my Amma's earrings which Appa gifted her once. These were Abhi's favourite earrings and Amma used to tell him that she would gift these to his wife once he gets married. I had asked Amms to get them from Mangalore and had initially planned to gift it to you after the wedding but then while making this garland I realized that they would fit in perfectly and so here they are shining amongst the fresh roses of the garland and with them are Amma and Appa's blessings which will be with you throughout the wedding. Mukti later on you can remove them from the garland and use them as earrings...I hope you liked the idea..!!

Abhi and Mukti hugged her tightly and murmured a Thank you while Amms, Surpriya and Raman came forward and kissed her forehead one by one. Dadi too, hugged her and said

Dadi – Dekha Avaiyan hi nahi yeh meri favourite hain...Dil khush kar ditta bacha..!!

Everyone smiled at her words and the rituals began. Abhi and Mukti stood in front of each other to exchange the garlands. First it was Mukti who was supposed to put the garland around Abhi's neck but Rishabh and Aryaman lifted Abhi up taking him out of her reach. Manik and Cabir stepped forward to pick Mukti up when she stopped them.

Mukti – I knew you guys would do that but listen there isn't any way I am jumping around in this heavy lehenga, so either come down or no varmala exchange.

Rishabh – Come on Bhabhi..!!

Mukti – Nope come down..!!

After a few seconds Rishabh and Aryaman kept him down and Mukti exchanged the garland.

Nandini – That's like my Boss Lady....Well done Mukti..!!

Soon after the garland exchange the photography session began which was followed by traditional wedding around the fire. Abhi and Mukti took seven rounds of the holy fire and were asked to settle down so that the pandit could explain to them the vows they took.

Pandit Ji – The first vow is, "तीर्थव्रतोद्यापन यज्ञकर्म मया सहैव प्रियवयं कुर्या:, वामांगमायामि तदा त्वदीयं ब्रवीति वाक्यं प्रथमं कुमारी!!" where the bride and groom promise to nourish and take care of each other's needs

Just then Nandini's phone beeped with Manik's message. He was sitting right across her. She looked at him and he gestured her to check the message. She opened it and it read, "No matter where I am or what I am doing, I promise that your well-being and need will be my priority...I will respect your choices and shall stand by you in all good and bad times". Nandini smiled and replied, "I promise that too"

Pandit Ji –The second vow states, "पुज्यो यथा स्वौ पितरौ ममापि तथेशभक्तो निजकर्म कुर्या:, वामांगमायामि तदा त्वदीयं ब्रवीति कन्या वचनं द्वितीयम!! Where you both promise to be one another's strength in life

Again Nandini's phone beeped with a message, knowing the sender she opened it, the message read "I will try my best to ensure that smile never fades away from our faces but at times when I fail or fall will you be my strength and give me the courage to bounce back", Nandini smiled and replied, "We are two souls and one heart and will always be there for each other to ensure laughter and smiles."

Pandit Ji –The third vow states," जीवनम अवस्थात्रये पालनां कुर्यात, वामांगंयामितदा त्वदीयं ब्रवीति कन्या वचनं तृतीयं!!" that is, the couple prays for wealth, prosperity, and wisdom to live life peacefully and with contentment. They also promise faithfulness and fidelity

This time before Manik could type in the message, Nandini sent him one which read "You are and will always be the man I would fall in love with and share all my happiness and sorrows with." Manik smiled and replied "You will be not be the only woman I will fall in love with for some day in future that place will be shared by our princess as well but yes I will always love you a little more than everyone else in the world, will that be okay", Nandini smiled and replied, "That would be perfect".

Pandit Ji –The fourth vow states," कुटुम्बसंपालनसर्वकार्य कर्तु प्रतिज्ञां यदि कातं कुर्या:,वामांगमायामि तदा त्वदीयं ब्रवीति कन्या वचनं चतुर्थ!!" which means they couple would not only respect each other but also the families for marriage is bond not only between two people but also between two families.

Manik and Nandini looked at each other and smiled and just wrote "When it comes to our family, we shall never compromise in upholding and protecting their respect and needs"

Pandit Ji –The fifth vow states, "स्वसद्यकार्ये व्यहारकर्मण्ये व्यये मामापि मन्‍त्रयेथा:, वामांगमायामि तदा त्वदीयं ब्रूते वच: पंचमत्र कन्या!!" wherein the couple promises to be with each other in every thick and thin, share joy and grief and give the best possible upbringing to their kids.

Manik messaged Nandini, "Our kids will be the luckiest for their mother would teach them how to never let go of hope, no matter what the circumstances are" to which Nandini replied, "Our kids would not be afraid of taking risks and shy away from committing mistakes because their father would always remind them of how every successful man has failed their way to success"

Pandit Ji –The sixth vow states, " मेपमानमं सविधे सखीना द्यूतं वा दुर्व्यसनं भंजश्वेत:, वामाम्गमायामि तदा त्वदीयं ब्रवीति कन्या वचनं षष्ठम!!" , where in the couple asks for a fit and healthy long-life filled with joy, prosperity, and peace and also promise to always stand next to each other in bad health or whenever needed.

Nandini laughed and messaged Manik, "I promise to wake up with you every morning at 5:30 and join you in your quest towards a healthier lifestyle", Manik made a face reading the message and replied "How about 6:30..??, 5:30 is too early", Nandini replied "5:45 would be okay then", Manik smiled and typed "Neither yours nor mine lets close the bid at 6, what say ?"... "Done" came a reply

Pandit Ji –The last vow states, "परस्त्रियं मातूसमां समीक्ष्य स्नेहं सदा चेन्मयि कान्त कूर्या:, वामांगमायामि तदा त्वदीयं ब्रूते वच: सप्तमंत्र कन्या!!", the bride and groom pray for loyalty, togetherness, companionship, understanding and unconditional love between themselves. They ask for enough patience & maturity to make this beautiful bond last long.

Manik and Nandini smiled and looked towards each other before turning to there phones and simultaneously typing. "We will be together with each other, forever, Humesha" , they have an eye lock post pressing send, wherein they mouthed "I love you"to each other.

As soon as the ceremony got over, Nandini ran and hugged Manik

Dhruv – Guys it was Abhi and Mukti who took the vows, don't you think they should be hugging each other.

Manik and Nandini looked at one another and smiled

Manik – I guess we are just too happy for the ones who took the vows...right Nandini..!!

Nandini – Right Manik..!!

Cabir – Okay guys let's get going, in case you've have forgotten Abhi and Mukti have a plane to catch

Soon after the Bidaai ceremony Abhi and Mukti left in the car to leave for their honeymoon while Manik took Amms permission to let Nandini stay with him for a day.
