It was afternoon when Sidharth got out of his dreamland ....... Opening his eyes a little he looked around the room just to determine the time .......

Letting out a sigh of relief he once again got back to his original sleeping position when his eyes struck on something......

He was hugging Akshat while both of them slept .......  Removing his arm off the little one's body he sat up on the bed ....... 

It's just him and Akshu in the room ......

Sid : Did he lay down beside me after Shehnaaz woke up ? ( he whishpered)

Scratching his head Sidharth got out of the bed and walked towards the washroom ...... Getting out of the shower he wiped himself dry before getting his clothes for the day ......

He has decided to take Shehnaaz out for shopping today and wearing something comfortable is a urgent requirement ....... Wearing his black jeans and t-shirt he went towards the vanity to make his appearance a little better ........

Applying a little bit of hair wax he combed and styled his hair before putting on some moisturizer and sunscreen on his face ......

He was about to put down the cologne bottle on the counter when he heard her voice .....

Sana : Akshu get up baby  let's go and have your favourite lunch ......... ( she said sweetly while caressing his head)

Akshat : Hmm.......

Sana : Bubba .... please get up ....... you must be hungry darling ......

Akshat : 5 minutes Mami.....

Sana : Okay.... . Just five minutes and after that I'm picking you up and taking you to the dining area ......

Akshat : Hmm..... ( nodding his head )

Sidharth came to the bedroom and stood their looking at the cute duo taking as if they are the original mother and son .......

It wasn't foreign for others that Shehnaaz loves the kids to death but seeing their affection infront of your eyes can actually make you doubt your information regarding her not being their biological mother ........

With a grin on his face Sidharth stood their for a while making himself realise the giddy feeling inside in his heart that if both of them have a kid then this will actually be their everyday story ......

A cute family with a baby or two ...... Although he would actually love having more kids but he doesn't want to hear her shouting on him saying she isn't a baby making machine.........

Sana : Love ........ you can actually come and talk to me rather than flowing down in the river of your thoughts ......

Sid : When did he come here ...?

Sana : Akshu got up early in the morning and came to our room .. ..... We played games , talked for a while and then he slept ...... Around 9 I fed him a roti but he needs to have his proper lunch ... ...... I know he is tired and sleepy but still .......

Sid : I get it ...... By the way you're looking beautiful......

Sana : We are kind of giving couple goals ...... black top and black bottoms ......

Sid : I was about to tell you that ......

Sana : Is the shopping plan still on ?

Sid : It is if you want .....

Sana : I do ......

Sid : Let's leave after having lunch .......

Sana : Hmm....

Sana : Akshu your five minutes is over Bubba.....

She tried to pick up Akshat but that was a little difficult for her with the petite  stature of hers .......

Seeing her struggling a bit Sidharth went forward and picked up the little guy in his arms before going towards the washroom and washing  his face with cold water .......

Akshat  : Uhhhaaannn..... Mamu ......

Sid : We have to eat our lunch little guy ......

Akshat : But .....

Sid : No buts .... your Mami is already angry on us ...... let's go ......

He carried Akshat in his arms till the dinning area and placed him on the chair just beside his ......

Riya : Akshu ..... I haven't seen you since the morning bro ......

Akshat : I was sleeping in Mamu's bed......

Riya : You were in his room ...?

Akshat : Yeah ..... even played angry bird with Mami ....

Riya : That's cool ......

Akshat : You know didi ..... I love it when Mami plays with my hair ...

Riya : Aaahhh... Mami ...... you can't do this to me ......

Sana : What did I do baccha ?

Riya : You spend time with Akshu and even played with his hair ......

Sana : Awe ..... mumma........ Don't worry I'll spend time with you too and also give you a nice head massage ......

Riya: Thank you .......

Sana : You're welcome love ......

The Five of them sat down to have their lunch just like a family with a couple and their kids along with a grandmother.......

Rita Ma :  Akshu was the morning really that great ......?

Akshat : Yes Nani ...... I loves this morning .....

Rita Ma : That's good baccha ......

They had a little chit chat while all of them finished having their lunch ......

Sid : Mom ......

Rita Ma : Yes beta .....?

Sid : I'm leaving with Sana for shopping ....

Rita Ma : Yeah ...... please go ahead .....

Rita Ma : Me along with Nitu and Abhinav will take care of the kids ......

Sana : I know ma .... after all you are their grandmother......

Rita Ma : But you have become more like their mother rather than Aunt .......

Sana : Ma .....

Rita Ma : That's a compliment baccha ....

Sana : In that case Thank you Matashree.....

Rita Ma : Drama Queen.....

The couple made their way to the parking area and got inside their car before zooming through the roads of Mumbai in the afternoon ......

Shehnaaz being a nature's lover she literally squealed the moment she saw the little pitter patter of rain drops falling on the windshield of the car .........

Sana : Isn't it really amazing how the rain started after you complained about the temperature  .....

Sid : Yeah it is .....

Sana : Are you God gifted .....?

Sid : Who knows ......?

Sana : You must be ....... you can controll the weather.......

Sana : Wow ...... it's so cool ......

Sid : You are so innocent......

Sana : I'm not .....

Sid : As you say baby .....

He drove the car through the crowded roads while she placed her head on his left arm and was placing with his t -shirt sleeves ......

Both of them reached the shopping mall and parked the car before wearing their face mask and some other things to concede  their identity.........

They roamed around to different stores where Shehnaaz bought some ethnic wear for herself along with a flower printed long dress before going to the mens clothing store and finding something for him ......

They stepped inside the mens clothing store before the sales executive came stood there giving a flirty smile towards Sidharth ......

Sana : Excuse me ....... can you show us some night wears for men in his size ......?

Sales executive: Sure ( she said rolling her eyes )

Shehnaaz held his hand and both of them followed the woman towards the trial area ......

Sales executive  : Here sir ...... try on these after all they are just made for you ....... ( she said in a seductive voice )

Hearing this woman's over acting and trying to flirt with her husband Shehnaaz was breathing out fire while seething in anger .......

Sidharth on the other hand was enjoying seeing his possessive lady when he felt her holding his hand tighten ......... Although he was actually about to tell off the woman but controlled himself when he saw the scroll on her face ......

Sana : I don't like these bring something a little colourful.....

Sales executive  : But these are for sir and it doesn't really matter if you like it or not ma'am......

And that was it ...... Shehnaaz couldn't take it anymore ....... Within a minute her anger completely burst on the poor woman .......  Who could actually save that girl form the hands of Sherawali Mata .......?

Sana : Well for your kind information this is my man and my decision matters .......

Sana : Also if you're done flirting and trying to seduce my man whishlist eye f*king him then do your damn job ......

Sales executive  : Well.....

Sid : Listen to what my darling says or otherwise you'll be in deep trouble lady ...... ( he said in a dangerously cold voice )

Sales executive  : Uh .... sorry .....

Leaving both of them to fend for themselves the lady ran away as far as she could ....... Shehnaaz leaving a sigh started to roam around the store and choose clothes for him before finalizing what to buy after he tired it out in the Trial room .....

The couple came out of the store with their bags in their hand and walked towards the food court and occupying an empty table .....

Sid : What do you wanna eat .....?

Sana : I don't have anything specific in my mind ......

Sid : May be a pizza ?

Sana : May be ......

Sid : Yeah ..... let me go and order.....

Sana : Are you sure that you can eat here with your mask and stuffs ...?

Sid : Uh......

Sana : You forgot.....

Sid : Okay then let's get back home .....

Sana : That's actually the best option......

Sidharth got up from his seat and removed the cap he was wearing for a while but before he could put that on again ....

Person : You are Sidharth Shukla Right ?

Both of us turned towards the girl when we heard the voice just beside us ....

Sid : Uh .... n..no .....

Person : No ..... you are ...... I can't be wrong.......

Person : I know my idol ....

And before they could actually do the girl shouted......

Person : AHHH...... I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ARE SIDHARTH SHUKLA ........

Person : OH..... MY ..... GOD ....... I CAN'T BELIEVE MY EYES ........

Seeing the girl make their scariest dream come true shehnaaz turned her head and looked towards Sidharth .......

Although she was a little skeptical thinking what was actually going inside his head she punched on his arm playfully before picking up the shopping bags in her arm and screaming ......

Sana : RUN !.......

Both of them Dashed towards the escalator and ran down  the moving stairs through the crowd of people dodging innumerable people in the mean time while a small crowd was actually running behind them .....

Person : PLEASE STOP SIDHARTH.........

Person 2 : SIDHARTH MY LOVE .......

Ignoring their words both Sidharth and shehnaaz ran towards the parking area to get in their car .......

Sid :  Baby .... you run faster and get inside ......

Sana : What about you .....?

Sid : Don't worry about me ......

Nodding her head she obliged to his demands and ran away towards his car and got inside ......

While she knew that her identity was still hidden her heart felt bad thinking that he was in deep trouble now after behaving in such a manner with his fans just to save me ......

It was more than an hour later when both of them reached their apartment...... Finishing their dinner and spending some time with the kids and Rita Ma both of them went to their bedroom .......

Shehnaaz was as usual going through her social media when Sidharth saw the post ......

Picture :-

[ Bollywood Masala  :
Here's an spicy update ..... Mr Shukla our hero was spotted with his fiancé  in Oberoi Mall this evening.....

At first both the person ignored his fans and ran towards the parking area but after a little run and chase Mr Shukla talked with his fans , took selfie with them ......

On asking why did they run he said .....
" Both me and my fiancé don't want to reveal her identity just yet ...... That's the main reason why we ran ....."

Further he was asked whether the happy face is real or not when he said .......
" I haven't been so happy in my entire life ..I'm actually great full to her that she came into my life ..... Everything was just like a fairy tale the moment she walked into my life  " ]

It has been few days after that shopping day incident and the wait was finally over ....... It was the day of the last Trial......

It was 27th September and the case was going to be produced for the last time in the court room today ......

From the morning itself Shehnaaz has been having an intuition and that was making her feel quite agitated ........ She was feeling as if a tornado was causing a raucous inside her stomach ......

While Shehnaaz was having a gust of anxiety every moment Rita Ma decided to accompany Sidharth to the court today .......On the other hand Sidharth was sitting on the couch in the livingroom while scrolling on his phone as if nothing happened......

He was cool like usual  talking , teasing all the family member , playing with the kids in the morning but only the experienced ones new how much tensed he actually was or not at all .....

With a knowing smirk on his face he stared at his phone while the fans were trolling Rashmi ...... Well it was actually quite a funny incident if you think about it carefully .......

Last night Shehnaaz was just scrolling through her instagram when she got a notification for a new article ..... As usual Shehnnaz being herself prayed to Waheguru before she clicked on the notification , just to find that it was for Rashmi Desai .......

Just after last weeks tweet incident the fans and few media houses were following her and they came up with her massive Controversy regarding her ........

The article :

Video :-

[ Buzzfeed India :

The cold war between Mr Sukla and Ms Desai has shaken up the internet quite a few times when Ms Desai decided to accuse Mr Sukla of different things altogether for the last few years but this time we got to know that the beautiful innocent woman isn't really an innocent one ......

According to our sources who have been quite active recently  found out about her behavior towards the crew members or any other person .....

According to sources it's said that she is a person who likes to change her behavior according to the other persons wealth or you can say band balance ......

Just like in the video where she behaves badly with the crew member and the makeup artists while acting  innocent and well mannered infront of the directors,  produces and so on ....]

Reading the article Shehnaaz's happiness had no bound while she literally dragged her husband to perform gidda infront of her mother in law ..... With a stunning smile dwelling on her face she spent a good night untill the sun rose over the horizon indicating the next day ......

Thinking what happened last night a small smile engulfed sidharths face making him genuinely happy ......

It was around 11 am when both Sidharth and Rita Ma were all ready to leave for the court house ......

Sana : Wait for a minute Sidharth ......

She moved towards the home temple and brought out a plate containing few things......

Sid : You want me to have some of this sweetened yogurt?

Sana : Yup and that's actually for Goodluck.....

Sid : Well I don't know about that but I believe that as long as mom and you are there in my life there won't be any kind of bad luck lurking around me ......

Sana : That's so sweet of you to say but here have a bite before you leave .....

Feeding him a spoon of that sweetened yogurt and some water both the mother son duo left the apartment....... Heaving a sigh of relief Shehnaaz closed her eyes praying to Waheguru ........

On the other hand Sidharth got inside the car along with his mom in the back seat and leaned his head on  back rest of the seat while Adit drove the car ......

Being a week day and near to Navratri the roads in Mumbai were a more little conjested than usual ....... They reaches the court premises around 12:30 pm and got out of the car before walking towards Raghav and Mr Deshpande......

Sid : Mr Deshpande  is there something regarding the court proceedings you want me to know ?

Mr Deshpande  : Yes Mr Shukla there is .......

Mr Deshpande  : Well there will be another round of question answer inside the room before the Judge gives his final verdict for the case .....

Sid : Okay .....

Mr Deshpande  : Well you see last nights  article regarding her has become one of the plus points for us in this case and I don't want to let go of this opportunity of questioning her further ......

Sid : That's certainly upto you ......

Mr Deshpande  : Well sir I just want the case to go in our favoure ........

Raghav : It will .....

Rita Ma : I hope you are right about your  believes .....

Around 1 pm just after the lunch time the case was about to be produced in the court room ..... All the people from both the sides were present inside the room and talking amongst each other ......

Clerk : Silence please .....

Clerk : The Judge is about to arrive .....

It wasn't more than a minute before the Judge wearing his black cloak arrived and as usual all the attendants inside the courtroom stood up to show him some respect ......

Judge : We are here for the final day of the case regarding Mr Shukla vs Ms Desai and Ms Bhattacharya  .....

Clerk : Yes your honour .....

Judge : Well before I give the verdict is there any more questions that the lawyers from both the parties want to  ask or want to prove something....?

Mr Deshpande  : Yes my lord..... I want to ask few questions to both Ms Desai and Ms Bhattacharya......

Judge : You may proceed with the questions .....

Mr Deshpande  : Thank you your honour ....... I would like to call Ms Bhattacharya on the witness box .....

Clerk : Ms Devoleena Bhattacharya  please come up on the witness box .......

As soon as Devoleena stood on the podium Mr Deshpande attacked her with his questions ......

Mr Deshpande  : Well Madam you said that you met Mr Shukla for the last time on 3rd of April right ?

Devoleena  : Yes .....

Mr Deshpande  : When was it morning or evening...?

Devoleena  : Evening

Mr Deshpande  : Where ?

Devoleena  : In my apartment in Mumbai .....

Mr Deshpande  : But as much as I know even from the media and Mr Shukla's schedule he was in Amritsar on that day .....

Devoleena  : I met him on the first week of April ....... I remember that ...... May be that was a day or two later .....

Mr Deshpande  : Well your honour here is the thing she never met with my client because he was not in the city for more two weeks during that time ......

Judge : Where was he ?

Mr Deshpande  : My lord I have already given you his schedule but here is the thing ...... Mr Shukla was in Amritsar for the first week and a half for his shooting and then went to Delhi to meet his girlfriend.......

Mr Deshpande  : Ms Devoleena you have certainly shown few photos of those years where  few marks can be seen on your body.......

Devoleena  : Yes and those are the proves that he was abusive  .....

Mr Deshpande  : But he was never there in the picture miss ........

Mr Deshpande  : Those wonders were done by your ex boyfriend........

Devoleena  : No I don't have any ex ......

Mr Deshpande  : Well then who is this person called Mayank ......?

Mr Deshpande  : Well your honour all those years Ms Bhattacharya was in a relationship with this man called Mayank Khanna who has been accused for being abusive on and off for the last few years by his girlfriends .......

Mr Deshpande  : You don't have any legal prove because it's not just the others Ms Devoleena but your are also one of those ladies who accused him .......

Devoleena : But he threatened me ......

Mr Deshpande  : With what ?

Devoleena  : With my work .....

Mr Deshpande  : Your non existing work ...... For heaven sake you haven't worked in the industry after your debut series ........

Devoleena  : I have done shows ......

Mr Deshpande  : Like splitsvilla ......

Mr Deshpande  : He isn't even interested in the show and another thing he didn't even know about your existence untill you started to defame him ......

Mr Deshpande  : My lord I think you have already heard the voice recording of 21st March which I have already submitted.......

Judge : The call recording between Mr Shukla's mother and his Manager right ..?

Mr Deshpande  : Yes sir ......

Mr Deshpande  : I don't know if you are aware of it or not but you were just a pawn of Ms Desai during this whole web where you have successfully entangled yourself ......

Mr Sinha : I object your honour....... My Client hasn't been proved guilty yet so he can't actually objectify her with those words ......

Judge : He hasn't said about objectification Mr Sinha  ....... Your Objection is over ruled .......

Judge : You may continue Mr Deshpande  ...

Mr Deshpande :  Thank you your honour...... Now I would like to call Ms Desai here on the podium .....

Clerk : Ms Rashmi Desai please come and stand on the witness box.....

Mr Deshpande  : So Miss Desai after all you can't actually hide the truth......

Mr Deshpande  : It's bound to come out one way or the other .....

Rashmi  : I haven't done anything .....

Mr Deshpande  : So that video and articles are wrong .......?

Rashmi : Yes they are ......

Mr Deshpande  : Then how come all the crew members and even the directors are saying that it's actually true ....

Rashmi : Media always doesn't potray a true image of a person ......

Mr Deshpande  : Or you are actually competing with the chameleon......

Rashmi : I didn't understand what you wanted to say .....

Mr Deshpande : That you have different faces ......

Rashmi: Did the media say this things....?

Mr Deshpande : Well they certainly did ......

Rashmi : The media can be wrong ......

Mr Deshpande  : Well then how can they be right in times of my client ...... isn't it just pure hypocrisy ?

Rashmi : But he is a rude , over bearing , arrogant person ......

Mr Deshpande  : Then why does the industry or it's people say a different story about this man ......

Rashmi  : Uh.....

Mr Deshpande  : May be those arrogant words and behavior was just limited for you.......

Mr Deshpande  : Oh Miss Desai you are a talented individual after all you can bring out the worst in every human being......

Rashmi : Please don't say anything that you don't know about ......

Mr Deshpande  : About what ?

Rashmi : How much in love we were .....?

Mr Deshpande  : When he was fully committed in a relationship with Ms Shivangi ...?

Rashmi : He wasn't committed and he was abusive and threatened me .......

Mr Deshpande  : But you don't have any prove to show that you were threatened or abused by him ...... Atleast your friend had a forged proof ......

Rashmi : Those were years ago .....

Mr Deshpande  : You could have complained to the police  .......

Rashmi  : He's  powerful......

Mr Deshpande  : you could have hiered a lawyer that time ......

Rashmi : Uh......

Mr Deshpande  : That's it your honour ...... I don't have any further questions after this ......

Judge : Please go ahead .....

Mr Sinha  : Thanks your honour .......

Mr Sinha  : I would like to call Mr Shukla's mother Ms Rita Dhukla on the podium ......

Clerk : Ms Rita Shukla please come and stand on the witness box ....

On the other hand Shehnaaz was tensed thinking about the verdict ...... She never had a trust on the lawyers and judges but what could she do when it was all that was required to stop those vicious woman from trying to disrupt their happy life........

Being on the edge since the morning finally she decided he go and stay at the Gurudwara untill it was time for the kids to come back home ....... Getting ready to go out Shehnaaz took out her car for the parking area and got inside before driving herself to the land of peace and fulfillment........

While Shehnaaz was sitting in the Gurudwara Hearing the words decided by the Granthi or the songs sang in the main hall Rita Ma got up from her seat and headed to the podium .....

Mr Sinha : So Ms Shukla ....

Rita ma : Yes . ....

Mr Sinha : Please introduce yourself and your relation with Mr Shukla ....

Rita Ma : Your honour I'm Rita Shukla wife of late Mr Ashok Shukla and mother of Sidharth Shukla....

Mr Sinha : Did you know about your son's relation with different woman at the same time ......?

Mr Sinha  : When did you meet her ?

Rita Ma : I have seen her previously but met her face to face two months before they got engaged .....

Mr Sinha : Are you happy with her .....

Rita Ma : Yes I am ...

Judge : Mr Sinha those are irrelevant questions ......... what Ms Shukla feels about her soon  to be daughter in law is none of our business ......

Mr Sinha : My lord .....

Judge : No.. .... I think the questions are done and there no need of further stalling the Judgement...........

Judge : Today's questions didn't actually change the mind of the court regarding the decision taken previously.......

Judge : In the case of defemation between Mr Sidharth Shukla vs Ms Rashmi Desai and Ms Devoleena Bhattacharya.......

Judge : After going through all the proofs and analysing them thoroughly the Court has come to the decision that .........

Judge : Ms Desai and Ms Bhattacharya are guilty ....... Both of them had conspired against Mr Shukla .......

Judge : They had tried to take advantage of the social media and cause serious harm to the man's professional life and thus creating a loss of 21.5 crores in the last five years .....

Judge : With all the proves and analysis on the them the court has decided to give Mr Sidharth Shukla a compensation of 15 crores in total from both the women .....

Judge : Each one of them are going to pay Mr Shukla 7.5 crores by the end of this year or otherwise the court is going to take legal step against them ...... Further if any of them ever try to do such a thing towards my Shukla then they would be send to the jail for 6 years based on the laws in IPC ......

Judge : Thus Mr Shkla becomes clear of all the accusations and charges from now on ......

Rashmi : NO THIS IS NOT TRUE ....... HE IS MINE !
