Swara’s photo frame is show with garland. All the furnitures are shown dimmed in color. No more laughter and giggle runs in the household . dadi is shown sipping tea. Suhana and anahita are shown sitting beside her .

Suhana – maa ji . this is hih time we take sanskar to a councellor. This boy has gone nuts. He needs to stop searching for swara. She is no more now .

Dadi – yes, in this way he will spoil his health too.

Anahita – it must be hard for him to accept the death of his wife only after a month of his wedding.

Suhana – but I cant see him in this distress anymore. He will keep searching, but he can never find swara !

Dadi – yes. Annie, u better take care of Anika now. She needs care and love in the family, when all she faces in distress and mourn.

Anaita – yes mom .

@Raglak room

Ragini is shown draped in a beautiful dress, drying her wet hair.

Laksh is shown working on his laptop.

Ragini – laksh, did u get any news ?

Laksh – no Ragini. Not yet. Sanky thinks , there are chances swara might be in manali too. I don’t know why the family doesn’t want to help us out.

Ragini – because they think swara is dead.

Laksh – bt we never saw her dead body laksh.  How can they just assume my shona is dead…she cant be …

Laksh – Ragu…

Ragini breaks down in tears . laksh wraps his arms around her.

Laksh – we are trying our best na…plese don’t cry. If we break down who will take care of sanky…

Ragini – I am sorry laksh.

Ragini cups laksh’s cheeks .

Ragini – I have been very ignorant to your emotions. I don’t talk to you, donbt give you time. We have nt made love once since swara’s disappearance.

Laksh gently kisses ragini’s forehead.

Laksh – awh mera baccha….ragini..sanky’s emotions are my only emotions right now . hmm…?

Ragini smiles . laksh smiles faintly too.

@swasan room

Sanskar is shown un shaved. Hair all ruffled, eyes red from drinking and insomnia..lips all sore…fiddling with swara’s sindoor box . and photos all over their bed. His laptop and phone are shown scattered in disarray …

Sanskar – what did u tell me swara ? 7 births you will be with me ..ah ? then where are you now ? u love me nah ? what kind of love is this princess ? separation..i cant take it anymore…

Tears stream down his cheeks .

Sanskar – if this is your love na , swara ? please please hate me !

Kaanchi leaves. Ranveer sips the coffee. Swara shows him her new dress. She twirls around as the flow of her anarkali flows round around her thighs.

Swara – now , tell me how does this look ?

Ranveer – it looks fab bhabi. Every thing looks fab on you .

Swara looks on numb.

Ragini runs to her and hugs her.

Jeevan yeh suro se sajati
Rishtey yeh suro se banati
Bajti hai to, pyar ki dhun

Ek dhup chanchal hai
Ek chandni
Phir bhi hai ek duje ke liye bani

Dilo mein hai pyar bhara
Suro se saji hai swara
Rago se rachi hai’
Ragini..

Lady – I found her unconscious near the river . she didn’t remember anything after my husband got her medicated. We told her that she is Anvi sharma. Our daughter. But when I saw swara ji’s pictures I htought it would be cruel to keep her away from her famil.

Ragini – Anvi ?

Lady – yet now, there is no proof that she is wara. But neither is she is Anvi . but I am assured sanskar will take care of her . that’s why im leaving her with you .
