Pragati: No no, he will worship you. I have already told you that there is nothing between us. But you couldn’t understand. You are so stupid.

Raghbir: No-no, I didn’t propose you.

Pragati: Than what else? Did you write an application for a refund? I do not understand what you wrote? You could talk to me directly.

Raghbir: He asked me to do so.

Guard (for Shamsher): He said he is your daughter’s friend. You just order. We will give him special treatment.

Shamsher gestures for him to leave. The guard leaves from there.

Raghbir: Sir, I am not that kind of boy. I accept that I wrote that letter but my intention was not wrong. I only wrote as a friend. I also wrote that parents are superior.

Shamsher: Before I get home, change your house.

Raghbir: Okay sir.

Shamsher: Go…

Raghbir: Really?

Sukanya: But Mom didn’t prepare dinner.

Shamsher (shocked) : What? What happened?

Kamala: I think, what is the need to prepare dinner today? Nobody is interested in it.

Shamsher: What’s need to take tension? If any stupid boy has written a Letter to my daughter, then what’s the fault of my Pragati?

Nobody answers him.

Shamsher: Okay then, today we will have pizza together.

Kamla and Pragati are still tensed.

Pragya feels sad that Raghbir is going out of the apartment.

Next scene,

Raghbir is lying down on the footpath and eating Burger and thinking.

” There was not even clouds, rain was far to fetch. I eat a lot of food and sleep. Nothing I could feel about what Pragati told me about love. I never asked someone about it. I didn’t even urge to ask. But something strange is happening nowadays, everything I do in my life like eating, sleeping, brushing my teeth, painting, etc. I realised that I was present on the terrace of that apartment. After being away from her, I felt her closeness. ”
