HAppY BirtHdaY to our Nami.. NAMISH TanejA…
This is the OS on my side celebrating his Birthday…
(This is family oriented OS guys.. Go on..)
There is a ritual called Annaprasana in Telugu region.
A baby is made crawled on a mat, and few things are placed in front of him. What the baby touches, people believe that baby will be fond on it in future.
In that house,
A baby is made crawled.. all elders are clapping their hands..
“Laksh beta, come on.. hold the pen, hold the book..”
All are saying something they like.
But, Laksh straight goes to money and holds it. Everyone will laugh…
But, our Laksh really gonna turn as money minded man…
Not because he is fond of money, but because,
He is a MIDDLE CLASS MAN.
———————————————
A typical middle class house is shown….
Mother (Ap ) is working in kitchen. Younger Brother (Karthik) is sleeping holding the book. Elder sister (Kavya) is dancing to some music. Younger sister (Mansi) is eating.
Father (Dp) is sitting in a chair looking at everyone, who can’t move.
Then, our middle class Man (LAKSH) is worshipping to god.
“Bhagavan, this month also keep look on the budget of family. Make my sisters and brother careful about money..”
Laksh prays to lord shri ram.
Then he listens Kavya was listening to songs.. he goes to that room and looks at AC is switched on.
He off it.
“Didi, why early morning itself Ac? See, weather is cool only know..” Laksh says and goes. Kavya upsets.
Laksh looks at happily sleeping Karthick. He beats him with pillow.
“Get up and read first. You need to pass competitive exam..!!”
Mansi forwards chapatti piece to Laksh.. ‘Bhayya..’
Laksh smiles and eats it.
Then he goes into kitchen,
Lak:: maa, everyday you cook.?. don’t you get bored..
Ap: hmm, then marry a girl and bring to this house. She will cook..!!
Lak:: marriage..?? No maa, first kavya didi should get married, then mansi behen, our karthick should settle in life and papa should walk..! then only, i will marry..!!
Daadi:: till then your age becomes 30+. Hey Ram..!!
Laksh glares at her.
Later Laksh is getting ready to office. He looks at the empty cover dancing on floor.
Lak:: why are you throwing empty covers like this?? Preserve them..!!
He switches off the tube light.
Lak:: lights are meant for night. Not for day..!!
Laksh sits at dinning and Ap feeds him a tasty ghee sweet.
Lak: mom, why did you prepare costly food??
Ap: beta, today is your birthday..
Lak: so what maa, birthday comes every year. But, money is more important.
kavya: conjuse bhai..!!
Lak:: conjuse nahi..!! this is saving..!!
Laksh takes a financial class for some time.. then he gets ready in formal cloths. With a tie.
He goes to his father who is paralyzed. He worships his feet.
Lak: papa, i will look after everything. You don’t worry.
He kisses his hand. Dp just looks at him in smile.
Laksh steps out of house.
He takes his old model bike. (it was his dad’s bike) and hits it few times, then it starts.
“Bhayya, bring lipstick.. bring perfume.. bring etc etc..” he hears shouts from house.
Laksh rubs his ears and hurries out soon.
His office,
*Telangana tourism department*
Laksh sits in his seat before computer.
Co officer:: arey Laksh, you are a the perfect bachelor. Didn’t you love anyone still..??
Laksh in amazement:: love..?? can middle class people like us can love Mr. Chaari ji..???
Chaari looks shocked.
…..This is the typical life of our Middle class man…..
Let’s have a look on our Rich girl now.
A pink room, where all are pink and many teddies.. in between the loyal bed the sleeping beauty is sleeping as princess.
Time is 10’O clock.
‘Ragini.. wake up’
Her assistant robot says..
Ragini wakes and stretches her hands. Her hair falls on her face. She gets out from bed…
She takes bath in rose petals water in bath tub.
She goes to her wardrobe. It’s not small wardrobe.. it’s a huge room.
‘When did I buy this dress..??” she amazes and looks at tag.. the cost is just Rs.30,000.
“Very cheap” she bites her lips. “But, I will try”
She wears that dress and looks for sandals.
“All are very old..!!” she sighs.
Ragini goes into living room, where parineetha is checking some files and Adarsh is talking with some delegates.
Rag:: i have to shop. I need some things.
Ada:: but, you have many things already..!!
Rag:: aww, plz jiju..!!
Parineetha transfers money to Ragini’s account.
Pari: happy shopping Ragini..!!
Ragini smiles and hugs Parineetha.. ‘aww, my sweet Didu..!!”
Ragini goes out swinging her bag who is wearing knee length frock.
Ada:: you are spoiling Ragini.
Pari:: she knows how to live.
Ragini is going in car..
Rag:: i’m going for shopping..!!!
Friend:: to inorbial mall or central..??
Rag irritated:: what..?? seriously..??? I’m going to Bangkok..!!
Friend:: shocked.
——————
Laksh is looking at the photo frame of his family. Himself, his parents, his daadi, and his two sisters and one brother.
Lak:: wow, nice frame. How much charges..??
Shop wala: sir, 1000rs.
Laksh shocked:: what..???
(and fainted)
This is the opposite life of both..!!
——
*Independence day*
Ragini goes as guest to tourism department on behalf of Adarsh as he went to foreign.
Laksh was busy in arranging things. The flag is about to hoist in 2 minutes. Ragini looks bored and takes out a chocolate to eat.
Then, her hand is held by a hand.
She shocks and looks.. it is Laksh.
Her eyes become wide as soon as she look at Laksh. But, he is looking at her normally.
Rag:: what the…??
Lak:: mam, flag is going to hoist. We sing Jana gana mana soon after. So, this is not time to eat.
Rag:: how dare you to stop me..?? do you know who am i..??
Lak:: Indian..!!
Ragini looks on..
Lak:: after that only, anything..!!
Chocolate falls off from her hand, Laksh smiles and leaves.. but she was glaring at Laksh. Ragini salutes to flag after hoisting. After the national anthem is over, all sits in their places.
Ragini bends her head,
“I didn’t know this. I’m I not supposed to eat..??” she thinks.
Laksh comes with a tray of sweets.
Lak:: mam, have them.
Ragini looks at him.
Lak:: Ragini, if you were ever regular to college assembly, you would have known these things.
Ragini taking a sweet from tray,
“you are not my leader here Laksh..!!” she says slowly. Laksh smiles and leaves.. Ragini too smiles when he goes away.
Flash back…
*A degree college*
Ragini was walking in the corridors.
“Yar, i come to college not to study. Just for time pass. I have much money already” Ragini says to her friends and looks at Laksh who was walking in corridor reading book.
“I have to study properly and have to stand with my family” Laksh thinks.
Ragini smirks looking at Laksh.. she was looking at Laksh and Laksh hasn’t seen her. They both clashes each other.. books fall off from Laksh’s hand.. Ragini is about to fall back.. Laksh holds her hand without falling. The papers fly in air and keep falling in between them, but their eyes are locked in each other’s.
The love will start in between them with a passion of attraction. Laksh’s hand holds Ragini’s hand instead of books. Laksh will become Ragini’s only world. They are together always in campus but still, in their own limits. No kisses or hugs.
Just love from eyes. And, it’s not just attraction which occurs to teenagers.. which has the true meaning from their heart.
As a result of forgetting books.. by the end of semester, Laksh faces backlogs in all subjects in that sem. He was depressed.
Rag:: laksh, it’s ok. If not now, you can pass all subjects in supplementary. You are a smart boy. You can do it..!!
Lak:: no, i can’t. I can’t until I’m in this love.
Ragini looks at him shocked.
Lak:: Ragini, my mother alone is struggling to make me, my two sisters and other brother study. My dad was paralyzed bcz, my elder brother has eloped with a girl betraying our family 2 years back. If my mom knows that I have backlogs…
Laksh closes his eyes in upset. Ragini holds Laksh’s hand.
Rag:: Laksh, if you feel I’m the reason for this…
Lak:: not you Ragini…
Ragini stops him.
“Laksh, let’s don’t meet or talk till you gain job. Until then, I assure you.. I won’t even disturb you in dreams”
Ragini says and turns back. Laksh looks on…
Ragini goes away in tears.
(flash back end)
After two years again.. they are meeting here.
Laksh was about to start his bike to go… Ragini comes and clears her throat. Laksh smiles looking at her.
Lak:: how are you..??
Ragini acts as sad.. “aww, I have become devadas.. as i missed you..”
Laksh laughs.
Rag:: you are very happy know.. after leaving me..!!
Lak:: yes. With my family..!!
Ragini is about to go back annoyed.. “I know”
He holds her hand.
Lak: you still remember me??
Rag:: why..? you forgot..??
Laksh smiles and shows the tattoo mark on his chest.. ‘Ragini’
“Yes, I forgot you. I just remember you during bath times..!!”
Laksh says.
Ragini beats him..
Screen freezes on their smiling faces.
——————————
At Laksh’s house…
The house is decorated with lights and flowers. Kavya is being made ready by Mansi and Daadi. Ap is busy in some other arrangements. Dp is sitting in between guests, he can only smile but can’t talk anything.
Laksh was receiving guests.
“Finally, your 1st responsibility is going to finish bhayya..!!” Karthick says.
Laksh smiles,
“Yes, still Mansi’s marriage is left and if you study well.. it will be more good..!!”
Kar:: aahh, stop classes now bhai..!!
Ap comes near Laksh. There is small dissatisfaction in her face.
Lak:: what’s wrong maa?
Ap:: if your bade bhai is also there…
Laksh smile vanishes as soon as she said that.
Then Laksh surprises to see a guest entering from gate. It’s Ragini, who is wearing a gorgeous lehenga.
Laksh unknowingly gets smile. He looks at her mesmerized.
Lak:: hey, you here..??
Rag:: you however don’t have manners to invite your ex classmate. So, i came to see your sister’s engagement seeing your fb status. Bcz, i have manners.
Laksh laughs,
“I thought why rich people would come to our functions??”
Ragini kicks Laksh in tummy.
Rag: don’t forget that i have black belt in karate.
Lak: i’m sorry madam ji, go in…
Ragini smiles and she calls,
“Jiju, plz come naa..”
Laksh looks at the gate side. Ap, Karthick and Laksh shocks at once looking at Adarsh.
Adarsh was looking around and he too shocks looking at them.
“Adarsh, my sweet jiju.” Introduces Ragini. Ap goes inside in tears while Karthick follows her.
Laksh was glaring at Adarsh.
Ada:: Ragini let’s go away…
Rag:: but jiju..
Ada:: i said come..!!!
Adarsh orders and fumes away. Ragini looks at Laksh sadly.
“I’m sorry” she says and goes away.
Laksh sighs and looks back to see Dp in wheel chair who was in tears. Laksh too gets tears looking at him.
————
In Ragini’s mansion,
Ada is shouting on Ragini,
“Don’t you know for whose functions you have to go??”
Rag: jiju, laksh is my friend..
Ada:: do you do friendship with such low class guys??
Rag:: he may be low class, but upper class in heart.
Pari:: Ragini, Adarsh is their elder son.
Ragini looks shocked.
Pari:: that family didn’t accept me. That’s why we came out. We don’t need to have any relation with them.
Rag:: didi, don’t change words. I didn’t forget what happened 5 years back. It’s you who came with Jiju. They didn’t send you..!!
Ragini says runs away to her room.
——————–
Daadi was taunting Adarsh.
“he has left all of us and married that parineetha seeing her richness. And, he never once visited us back. Why to think about him?? Being the elder son of this family, he has betrayed us. Only, Laksh is looking after whole family..!! think about our laksh and forget him..!!”
Ap wiping her tears:: how can i forget?? He is my son..!!
Laksh was standing leaning to a pillar listening silently.
“Ragini is pari bhabhi’s sister..??” Laksh was thinking.
Then itself Mansi runs down with a letter to Laksh.
“Bhayya, kavya didi is nowhere”
Laksh shocks and takes the letter.
“Sorry Laksh bhai, i have loved some other guy. I’m going with him. Bye..!!”
Ap:: kavya..!!! (she cries)
Listening that kavya has eloped, Dp gets heart stroke. He falls off from wheel chair.
“Papa” Laksh shouts and runs to him.
The screen shifts to hospital. Dp is in ICU. Outside all are waiting.
Ap is crying and Daadi consoling her. Karthick was holding mansi. Laksh was walking here and there.
He remembers a flash back…
‘I don’t want anyone. I want my parineetha’ shouts Adarsh and leaves the house.
Then, Dp gets fits as he left.
The same time when Dp was in ICU, Laksh gives promise, “I will take care of everything”
Flash back finish.
Laksh wipes his tears and he looks at the mobile as he gets a phone call. It’s Ragini.
Ragini is crying in phone,
“Laksh, my jiju and didi have arranged marriage unlike my wish. Tomorrow is my marriage. You know why I don’t like this marriage..”
She was saying.
Laksh is silent.
Rag:: bcz I love you Laksh. I’m saying the same thing again after two years. I love you still..!!
Lak: but, Ragini.. I also said, that I don’t love you.
Rag:: Laksh, i will adjust with everything. Don’t think I will behave like my sister. I will be in your house, with your family…
Laksh shouts in frustration,
“Ragini why can’t you understand the fact..?? I’m not a movie hero to set everything perfectly. I’m just a man.. a middle class man..!! I have many responsibilities for myself. I don’t have time to love and etc. Good Bye..!!”
Laksh cuts the call. Ragini looks at the phone in tears. She cries.
Laksh falls on his knees and keeps crying holding his face in his palms.
“I’m a failed son. I didn’t fulfil my responsibilities. I’m lame..!! I’m a loser..!!” Laksh cries.
His whole family looks at him in tears. Then he feels his head is being rubbed with love. Laksh looks up.
It is Ap. She makes Laksh stand and takes him into ICU.
Dp was looking normally.. he was lying on bed. Laksh goes near him.
“Laksh..” Dp calls.
Laksh eyes becomes moist again as his father was speaking after 5 years. Laksh holds his hand and kisses it. “papa”
Dp: laksh, you have sacrificed so many things. Not anymore…!!
Laksh looks at Dp.
Dp:: go and bring what you love, what you want in your life. This is your life Laksh.
Laksh looks on…
—————
At Ragini’s mansion.
Ragini was made as bride and she was seated in a chair. All guests are coming and blessing her. There is no smile in her face.
Parineetha and Adarsh shocks looking at Laksh who has entered the hall just then. Ragini gets amazed and stands in that amazement only.
Laksh comes and stands before Ragini.
“Ragini, my elder sister was eloped. My papa got heart attack” Laksh says in tears.
Ragini shocks listening to it and even Adarsh too shocks.
“He is feeling fine now. He has forgot his elder daughter just as he forgot his elder son.”
Adarsh gets tears listening to Laksh’s words.
“Ragini, he was paralysed bcz his son has betrayed him once and he was sick now bcz his daughter again betrayed him. But, he has overcome that pain bcz.. he understood that there is a loving family still behind him.”
Laksh says and Ragini looks at him emotional.
Lak:: this is my life Ragini. This is my family. And, you have to live with this family if you want to hold my hand. I will never leave my family at any cost. Because I love family more than money unlike someone here..
Laksh looks from his corner of eye towards Adarsh.
Lak:: I’m fond of money because to make my family happy. I’m conjuse bcz i save money for their future. Ragini, i can’t take shopping you to Bangkok, I can’t buy you costly cloths. Only what i can give is love as husband and a caring family..!!
Ragini nods her head.
Lak:: Ragini if you want to come with me, you have to leave all these luxuries behind you. You have to live in that typical middle class house…
Rag:: Laksh, I’m ready to be the wife of Middle class man.. who don’t have assets but, heart full of love…!!
Laksh smiles at her in moist eyes. Ragini hugs Laksh tightly in tears. Laksh places hands around her.
Parineetha gets frustrated and moves forward to grab Ragini, but Laksh holds her hand. Pari looks at Laksh shocked.
“I’m sorry bhabhi. You have right to beat your sister. But, from now.. she belongs to me. Not anymore to you.”
Laksh says and leaves her hand. Pari’s hand falls down and looks at Laksh helplessly.
“You have snatched my brother from us bhabhi. Now, I’m taking away your sister. Karma works eventually..!!”
Laksh says and takes away Ragini.
Pari and Adarsh remains idle in that mansion where Ragini has come out along with their respect.
*After some days*
Ap invites RagLak into house (gruhapravesh)
Mansi was standing beside Nikil as wife whom kavya has to marry actually.
Raglak comes near Dp who is standing and they both take his blessings. Dp places his hand gently on Ragini’s head.
“Someone has snatched away our happiness. And, some other will bring it back. We shouldn’t get depressed for betrayed one’s. We have to be strong for the people who love us..!!” Dp says
And Ragini smiles.
*Night, In RagLak room*
Ragini was arranging the bed.. Laksh comes in and hugs her from back.. ‘Ragini…’ he is about to kiss her cheek.
Ragini stops him,
“Stop my pati parameswar. See this bond”
Lak:: what is this..??
Rag:: sign it naa Laksh…
Ragini moves her fingers sensually on his face. Laksh who was lost in her magic signs it unknowingly.
Then Ragini laughs.. “do you know what you have signed..??”
Lak:: what..??
Rag:: if you touch me, you have to take me to honeymoon to swiss.
Laksh shocks…
“what..??? how can you keep such conditions to your middle class pati. And, why shouldn’t I touch you..??”
Rag:: bcz, you have broke my heart twice. Is it or not..??
Laksh chuckling.. “then, conditions were different..” he was about to touch Ragini.. ragini beats his hand.
Rag: whatever, Now, I’m taking my revenge..
Ragini smirks and goes aside.
“Girls shouldn’t have this much attitude Ragini..!! Do you think I can’t control myself..??” Laksh shouts and looks at Ragini’s waist.. when she was setting something.
Laksh soon goes near her and grab her nearby waist and he places a passionate kiss on her lips. Ragini rubs his head and switches off the light.
Next morning,
Laksh wakes and sees Ragini was rubbing his chest where he has her name as tattoo..
“So, when are you going to take me to swiss??” Ragini asks chuckling.
Laksh looks at her innocently. Ragini laughs and tears the bond.
“Aww, my Ragu..” Laksh says and comes over her and places kiss on her forehead.
*After one year*
Annaprasana of a new baby again.
“Come on son.. hold the book.. hold the pen..” Ragini and Laksh are shouting and all family members are seeing eagerly.
The baby goes and holds money again…
Ragini shocks looking at it and Laksh laughs.
She holds her hands annoyed,
“As the father.. so the son..!!” Ragini says.
Laksh takes baby into his hands and side hugs Ragini.
The End.
From Astra’s creation box.
Happy birthday to Nami.. again..
