Haan hai mere ishq ka rang safed-
Episode: 2
At Ayodha Nivas:
Viplav moved towards the main gate and stood on the doorpost, he was searching everyone in the hall while standing at his place
Viplav: is anybody at home or all are sleeping after getting tired of doing all these arrangements?
Listening his voice all rushed at the gate and got happy after seeing the boy who was having a bright smile and sparkling eyes
Kanak: Arey beta we all were waiting for you
Viplav was about to enter inside but shushma jee stopped him
Sushma: ruko beta (walking towards him with an Aarti plate) first let me do Aarti
Viplav: Arey princess I can wait my whole life for you
Shushma: chal badmash kaheen ka
Everyone smiled while shushma jee did his Aarti lovingly, once after completing it viplav walked inside and hugged her tightly
Viplav: princess I missed you so much, and now that I’m back, I’ll spent my more than half time with you
Shushma: (smiles while caressing his back) we too missed you a lot
Dahshrath: beta if you didn’t miss your dada jee?
Viplav: (frees his dadi from his grip) dada jee aisa ho sakta hai (walks towards him and takes him in his embrace) how can a grandson forget his dada ?
Dahshrath: this house was empty without you but today it has got it’s charm back
Viplav: yeh tou hai, I’m actually (breaks the hug) the charm of this house
Then he moved towards Kanak and Shambu to greet him and took their blessings
Viplav: maah you look same as before, I mean beautiful, slim and smart
Kanak smiled after listening the compliment from his son while fixing her hairs
Shalini: it seems like (making a cute angry face) someone has forgotten me
Viplav: hayee my cute motu behna, (takes out two chocolates from his pocket) who can forget you (forwarding those chocolates to her) but it seems like someone don’t want this
Shalini: (cheerfully takes them and while hugging him) thanks bhaiya, I know you won’t forget my gift
Viplav: absolutely correct as if I would’ve forgotten it then you won’t let me live in peace, won’t you?
She playfully hit his chest while everyone laughed on their silly bond.

At the Quarter:
Dhaani was having a simple breakfast with her maayi, when she remembered the morning incident
Dhaani: maayi woh today I met Maha Pandit jee at Ghat
Dulaari: Acha, if he was saying anything to you
Dhaani: nahe maayi, woh actually I touched his shawl mistakenly
Dulaari: (gets shock) dhaani are you mad? How can you touch Maha Pandit’s accessories being a widow?
Dhaani: maayi woh I just touched it to give it to him
Dulaari: did he say something to you?
Dhaani: no he didn’t say anything, instead he blessed me. He is a very nice person maayi, today I have seen his generosity with my eyes
Dulaari: I know buchiya but you should be careful. Maha Pandit jee is indeed a very nice and noble person but if someone else might be in his place he would’ve created a scene as all aren’t same
Dhaani: you’re right maayi, everyone may not be same as today if I had met a human in form of God than on the other hand I had met that drunkard boy too who has no values
Dulaari: buchiya this world is filled with these kind of people but we’ve no place in this world as we’re inauspicious for this society so from now onwards be careful
Dhaani: (nods in yes) I’ll maayi, don’t worry
Dulaari: Acha, I’m going now bachwa jee might have reached and must be asking about me then I’ve to do lots of work too
Dhaani: maayi araam sey chali jana, first complete your breakfast
Dulaari: no dhaani, I’ve done
Saying so she stood up to leave.

At Ayodha Nivas:
Whole Tripathi family was sitting in the hall and were having a light chit chat.
Shalini: bhaiya now that you’ve come so why not we think about a grand party
Viplav: actually shalu, tonight me, Pankaj and Raj are having a full night party but we can have a grand celebration tomorrow
Dahshrath: no tomorrow will be a Pooja in the happiness of viplav’s arrival after that you can have your party or anything
Viplav: OK as you say dada jee but tonight I’ll be busy (takes a pause) by the way where is (looking here and there with astonishment) kaaki?
…: (in a cheerful voice) Bachwa jee, here I’m
He after listening the voice ran towards the woman and hugged her tightly
Viplav: kaaki, you know I missed you the most, your scoldings, your strictness and most importantly (freeing her from his grip) your yummy parathas
Dulaari: (smiles broadly) Acha, I thought you’ve forgotten me
Viplav: (widens his eyes) Arey kaaki aisa ho sakta hai, I can never forget you though I didn’t talk with you during that period but always asked about you from daadi and you know my heart has a very special place for you (looking at daadi lovingly) and daadi
Dulaari: I know bari maalkin always use to tell everything about you
Viplav: deykha (showing a fake sad face) then also you’re saying this
Dulaari: (smiles looking his expressions) woh tou I was just joking
Viplav: (laughs) waah kaaki you’ve also started to joke
Everyone smiled listening their conversation except dada jee and Kanak who were getting jealous and were fuming in anger
Shalini: kaaki now that bhaiya has come, you’ll forget me and will make those delicious parathas only for bhaiya
Viplav: Haan tou, you’ve already become motu after eating them alone
Shalini: haww (walks towards them) see kaaki, what he’s saying
Dulaari: bachwa jee, don’t say like this to your sister, I’ll make them for both of you. Theek hai naa
Both nodded in yes with a cute and innocent smile
Kanak: Acha Viplav now enough of your gossips, go and freshen up quickly then I’ll send you food, which I’ll especially cook for you
Viplav: nahe maa, today I’ll eat parathas that must be made by kaaki
Kanak: but beta..
Viplav: maa please, tomorrow I’ll eat the food which will be made by you
Dahshrath: bahu jee, let viplav eat what he wants to after all he has come back after a very long time
Kanak nodded with a smile while trying to control her anger. All went to their respective rooms once after viplav left but kanak didn’t move from her place and was staring dulaari who was about to go in kitchen but was stopped by her choti malkin
Kanak: though my son loves you a lot but that doesn’t mean you’ll rule on this house, don’t ever forget your real place
Dulaari: choti malkin you’re misunderstanding..
Kanak: I’ve said what I want to and haan I don’t want your inauspicious daughter to roam around my son if I ever found her with viplav than consequences will be worst
Dulaari shook her head in affirmation with teary eyes

At the quarter:
Dhaani was sitting on floor and was beautifully ascending the flowers in a thread which was converting into a garland
“Jeevan ka rang safed hai baba, Jeevan ka rang safed plays”
Then she stood up and gathered all dirty clothes together and went inside washing area.

At Ayodha Nivas:
In Viplav’s room:
Viplav after freshening up came out of the washroom and combed his hair while thinking: ajeeb larki thi yaar, she became angry so fast (in a loud voice) bohat emotional thi
Dulaari: (while entering inside the room) who was emotional bachwa jee
Viplav: no, nothing (takes the plate from her) come (making her sit on the bed) we both will eat together
Dulaari: nahe you may eat, I’ve lots of work
Viplav: kaaki no arguments, you’ll accompany me else (thinks for a second) I won’t eat this
Dulaari: Arey, (smiles) Acha baba. Alright
He smiled and both took a bite, viplav while eating looks at her surprisingly
Viplav: kaaki why are you silent as before you used to talk a lot about your buchiya, her likes, dislikes, buchiya aise hai waise hai but today nothing about her, daadi told me that she is married now, is everything OK?
Dulaari: (trying to avoid the eye-contact) haan woh she (looking at the plate) Arey yeh kia these parathas has become so cold, come on (stands up from the bed) finish them fast
Viplav: OK but where’re you going?
Dulaari: I’ve lots of work so I’ll be back once after completing them, theek hai
Viplav nodded understandably like an obedient child, she smilingly left the room and went straight to the kitchen while letting some tears out remincing dhaani in white sari.

At Ayodha Nivas’s Terrace:
Viplav was standing there with daadi leaning his lower part on the half wall and was having a cute conversation
Viplav: daadi please I don’t want to marry, I can’t think about it at least before some years
Daadi: why? If there is any girl who will say yes after some years?
Viplav: daadi kia ap bhe. It’s nothing like that, actually I think God hasn’t made a match for me or maybe I didn’t met her till now
Daadi: (patting his shoulder lovingly) why are you talking like this, God has made each person’s match, there must be someone for you too and deykhna one day you’ll fill that someone’s hairline with sindoor
Viplav: (smiles broadly) daadi first I want to feel love for that someone than only I’ll select her because I’ll decide by myself that when, where and with whom I’ll marry
At the side of lawn, dhaani is shown hanging the wet clothes on rope.
“Humming of ishq ka rang safed plays”
Viplav while turning his body in front and shifted his glance from daadi to the area where dhaani was standing and was about to look at her but again turned towards his daadi
Viplav: daadi do you know what happened to kaaki? She is not like before, she has become too silent now. Is everything OK?
Daadi: if you asked her the reason behind her silence?
Viplav: yes but she didn’t answer instead she changed the topic. I feel like she’s hiding something from us, daadi maybe dhaani is not happy or (shrugging his shoulders) I don’t know
Daadi: viplav beta she..
As she was telling him about dhaani but a voice interrupted her in between, both turned their heads to that voice
…: Arey viplav beta, you’re still here
Viplav: (confusedly) maah, if I’ve to go somewhere
Kanak: deykho zara, you yourself told us about full night celebration, see it’s already evening, when you’ll get ready and when you’ll go.
Viplav: (biting his tongue) I just forgot, (looking at daadi) I’ve to go now, will catch you guys later (kissing his daadi’s forehead) and daadi we’ll continue the discussion right from here.
Daadi nodded with smile, once he left kanak looked at her mother-in-law with a serious face
Kanak: maah jee don’t ever talk with him about that widow. I don’t want to listen her name from him, hope you’ll understand
Saying so she too walked off leaving daadi behind who was standing there hopelessly.

In night,
At Ghat:
Viplav with his friends, Raj and Pankaj were hanging out in open and were sitting near the bonfire
Pankaj: guru enjoyed a lot at club, right
Raj: and the best thing was that girl, hayee my eyes weren’t getting off from her
Viplav: (makes a weird face) Acha (while taking a peg) I haven’t noticed her
Pankaj: haan that’s because you must be busy in noticing some other girl
Both raj and pankaj laughed while doing a hi-fi
Viplav: chal bey! There isn’t any girl in this whole planet who had attracted Viplav Tripathi till now
Raj: guru ap ke jai ho, no one is as unique as you are
Pankaj stood up from his place and spots a girl on Ganga river who was busy in praying
Pankaj: Arey come here, see she is the same girl who had created a drama in morning
Listening him, viplav and raj too stands up while looking each other in confusion
Raj: (standing beside Pankaj) Arey haan yaar, she’s the same girl. Wesey we’ve to admit she’s very beautiful, kyun viplav?
Viplav who was busy in his cellphone looked at the girl, and admired her smilingly
“Jeevan ka rang safed hai baba, jeevan ka rang safed plays”
Raj: (notices viplav’s smile and while snapping him out) ab she’s not very much beautiful that your eyes aren’t getting off from her
Viplav: chup kar (slightly hits him) I was just thinking that she’s quite simple, isn’t she?
Pankaj: Arey tou guru she’s a widow that’s why she’s like that
Viplav: (laughs) how do you? Did she come to inform you?
Raj: yeh deykho zara, Benares’s raja has forgotten many things, he doesn’t know that widows can only wear plain white color and this is the identification of them
Viplav: I literally don’t know all these things but one thing I can say with surety that she’s not a widow, Arey look at her age she doesn’t even seem to be married. Apny paas sey kuch bhe
Raj: ok then go and ask from her and the one who may win will get 15,000. Manzoor hai?
Viplav: (in a questioning voice) 15,000 Arey I’m ready to bet for 50,000
Pankaj: but how you’ll ask her?
Viplav: we met her today because of that accident and I talked to her because of Prasad so now also I’ll talk with her because of Prasad (giving stress on “Prasad”)
Raj: Arey but how?
Viplav: just wait and watch!
Saying so he walked inside the temple and after awhile came out with a Taali which was having Prasad
“Ishq ka rang safed hai yaara, ishq ka rang safed plays”
Dhaani was about to move from her place but was freezed to see the same morning boy, or for her he was the same drunkard boy
Viplav: hi (smiles broadly) woh actually I want to apologize from you (while handing over the Prasad) here take it, because of me your Prasad had fallen so I want to repent for my mistake
Dhaani: (nervously) no need of it
Viplav: Arey nahe take it, I’m giving you with full loyalty
Dhaani: (while keeping her finger on the nose trying to block the alcohol’s smell) you should have some shame,
Viplav: (confusedly) shame but why ?
Dhaani: just look at yourself, standing on this sacred river, holding the Taali in this drunken state
Viplav: what’s your problem yaar? (takes a deep breath to control his anger) fine if you don’t want to take it then it’s ok but at least tell me why you always wear white color if white is your favorite color?
Dhaani gets shocked on his question and without answering she moved from her place but again stopped because of viplav who blocked her way by standing in front of her
Viplav: Arey say something, lecture tou bohat deti ho now answer my question too
Dhaani looked at him with anger but stayed silent
Viplav: hello (waving his hand) angry young lady, I’m asking you, please answer me actually it’s the matter of our bet, so please tell me the reason behind wearing this white color as you can’t be a widow at this age, right?
Dhaani: (with teary eyes) you’ve no importance of other’s feelings naa, saram naam ke koi cheez nahe hai naa ap mai?
Viplav: what? I’m just asking a question why this sharam is coming between it, sharam nahe ati Prasad dete waqt, sharam nahe ati sawaal poochte waqt. What’s your issue. If I’m not saying anything that doesn’t mean you’ll show me your attitude
Dhaani stared him for awhile than walked off without speaking a single word, viplav tried to stop her by saying “Arey suno, wait” but all it was useless to stop her
Raj and Pankaj joined him and both exchanged surprising expression after looking him in anger
Raj: what happened ? If she said something again
Viplav: who is she? What does she think of herself? First she refused to take Prasad then didn’t answer me? How can she say no to viplav tripathi
Pankaj: leave it naa viplav, come on let’s go
Viplav: (with a serious face) I’m going home yaar, this girl has ruined my mood. Will see you tomorrow
Raj: Arey but..
Before he could complete he he left from there.

At the Quarter:
Dhaani ran inside her home and once locking the gate, she breaks into tears
“Koi naa deykhe mere ansoo chup chup k mai roou plays”
A flashback is shown:
“Dhaani was sitting on floor in blue sari when one lady held her hand and breaks her bangles, then an old lady threw a white sari towards her asking her to wear it quickly”
Flashback ends.
Dhaani cried while remembering all this
“Jeevan sey hai har rang rootha, Jeevan sey hai har rang rootha
Phir mai kese bolun plays”
Someone knocked at the gate, she composed herself after hearing it and stood up wiping her tears, she went towards the washbasin and splashes water on her face once after freshening herself she opened up the gate and found dulaari there
Dulaari: where were you dhaani, I was knocking since long
Dhaani: woh maayi I was in washroom
Her maayi went inside leaving dhaani on the gate, she was closing the gate when viplav came there but before he could see her she completely shut the door
“Ishq ka rang safed hai yaara, ishq ka rang safed
Ishq ka rang safed hai yaara, ishq ka rang safed plays”
As viplav was going inside, a white sari which was hanging on the rope, blew from there due to heavy wind and falls on viplav’s face
“Ishq ishq rang rang, ishq ka rang safed
Ishq ishq rang rang, ishq ka rang safed plays”
Viplav slowly touches it with his hands and looked on
“Ishq ka rang safed hai yaara, ishq ka rang safed plays”
Screen freezes!

Precap: A fully wet Viplav while handing over a plate of gulaal asked a kid to throw it on dhaani, the kid agreed when viplav bribed him for chocolate.
