As she wishes, kishori lays her in the middle of the house on the bed, wiping granny’s tears, while crying himself. she asks him to play on her favourite song. he sets the gramophone and she listens to it intently with tears in her eys, as she eyes her husband’s picture, while seeing the entire house, as kishori leaves her alone with her memories.

He leaves, while revathy is apalled. lajo hears this from the doorway, and revathy is tensed to see her too. lajo leaves, as she remembers the incident that happened on the roof, and Chaman’s rude behaviour. Lajo has chillies in her hands as she does the Nazar Utaro ritual, to ward off all that is evil from the house. Later, while she is burning off the chillies, sunder comes and asks whats she doing. she tells about the ritual as to how they and the lord’s blessings shall make everything alright. he smiels at her innocence. he says that she must have had so many dreams of coming to lahore, but unfortunately what has his lahore given her. he says that she seeks blessings for the man, who denies her entry in the house. he says that he is embarassed at her innocence and simplicity. She hugs him from back, saying that he is hers, and his troubles too, and by complaining, the problems shall go away too. he turns around and asks how. She clarifies and then makes him swear on her head, that he shall never talk about separation or his share ever, as that causes immense pain to the parents. he is shocked at her concern. he says that leaving lahore is smart, as the country is separating, and noone can benefit or smile from that, as it breaks hearts, inflicts wounds and causes pain.

He smiles at her, her hope and her confidence. She smiles at him too. a romantic eyelock follows. he extends his hand for her to come close, and she reciporcates by hugging him, as he engulfs her in his arms, clasping them around her. he then breaks off her fast which wasnt yet in all this commotion. he tries to feed her, but she kisses the hand first and then takes the bite. he smiles at her adoringly. He kisses her hand too. both smile at each other adoringly. They finish the food.
