Recap – Parish knows about ragsan
( It’s been so late I’ll jump a few days ahead . these days were spend on sangeet preparations )
The sun rises again in Jaipur brining in some new vibes. The preparations are going on as today is the sangeet, mehndi and sagan ceremony of Arnav and Khushi.
Ragini has slowly come out of the trauma and is looking at the better side of having her loved ones around her. Sanskaar is always with her and he’s keeping an eye on swara at every point. Everyone is upset with swara for trying to hurt sanskaar and ragini. Parish are thinking whether they should talk to the family about sanskar and ragini. Amidst all this a new angle of love is emerging….. Abhay and Pooja have fallen head over heels in love with each other and they don’t miss a single chance to be together. But haven’t told anyone yet.
**”**************
Evening – the hall is beautifully decorated with flowers and lights. Disco balls and dance stage is set. VR & SR ( Arnav’s parents ) and SG & GG ( Khushi’s parents ) are welcoming the guests and seeing the preparations. Maheshwari’s are there and so are Abhay and Pooja.
Uttara comes to them. She smiles.
Uttara : Hi Abhay
Abhay : hey Uttara
Uttara : where’s bhai?
Pooja : they are coming…. Must be romancing somewhere ?
Abhay : why are you jealous? That you don’t have someone to romance with? ?
Pooja glares at him while uttara and abhay chuckles.
Pooja : Haha … Well I have someone and he’s very handsome and special….
Abhay : o really? Show us his picture… You also want to see na Uttara??
Uttara : sure… Show us pooja
Abhay keeps his arm around uttara and winks at pooja. Jealous Pooja shows them a picture of one of her colleagues who’s well quite handsome. Abhay gets all jealous and goes from there. Pooja laughs ?
Pooja : Uttara you wiat I’ll see where they are…
And she goes from there. Uttara smiles ear to ear.
**** Ragini’s Room ****
Dolled up in dark green heavy embroidered skirt with golden blouse, Ragini was looking mesmerizing. Complementary jewellery, make up and a pretty hair do completed her look. She was sitting in front of the dressing table and wearing her heels.
Ragini : sansku will you stop staring at me?
Yes, Sanskaar was also there, looking Royal in a crisp black tux, spiked hair and that killer smile on his face.
Sanskaar : how can I ginu? You are looking breathtaking……
Ragini – hush… ( Blushes )
Sanskaar ( gets up and hugs her from behind, they look at each other in the mirror ): I wish I could see you like this everyday….. You are my charm ginu! I love you so much!!!!
Ragini : I love you too sansku! You are my reason to live… You are my everything ❤️
Sanskaar kisses her on the top of her head and makes her stand. They look in each other’s eyes with utmost sincerity, love, respect and affection. Sanskaar kisses her forehead while she kissed his cheek. He moves forward to kiss her. She closes her eyes and slides her hands around his neck. He pulls her closer holding her waist and plants his lips on her. They kiss like it was their first. He held her close to his heart. She responded with same intensity until she was out of breath. They join their foreheads and stand there for a while.
Ragini : I love you sansku
Sanskaar : I know… But I love you more!!
They smile. Ragini puts on her lipstick again and sets her hair. Sanskaar too puts his hands through his hair like all the boys nowadays.
***********
Swara : lucky… Here have some cold drink… Maybe then your mind will cool down…
Laksh : swara no need to be sarcastic with me….
Swara : common laksh… Why are u always taking their side?
Laksh : it’s not about sides swara.. it’s about right and wrong and this time you are wrong. And the sad thing is you are not even accepting your mistake
Swara : laksh just stop it now. I’m seeing how you are behaving after coming here. I saw you staring at Ragini the other day. So don’t teach me right and wrong.
Laksh ( irritated ) : swara just forget it…
He is about to go from there when he sees Ragini coming from the other side with Sanskaar and Pooja. Well, his eyes are stuck on Ragini and seeing Swara gets more jealous and passes by him and pushes him a little bit. Laksh realises and goes from there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After their romantic session, when they were about to leave the room for coming downstairs, they met Pooja in the hallway. She teased them and together they came down.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sagan ceremony starts. Khushi, in a beautiful purple gown is sitting next to Arnav who’s looking dashing in a black achkan kurta. The parents do the pooja of the bride and groom-to- be and give them sagan and gifts. Arnav’s bua and masi’s make khushi wear the jewellery they got for her and gives them gifts. All the guests too follow the same thing.

Sanskaar, Ragini and Pooja also gives them gift and sagan envelop. Pictures are being clicked and snacks are served.
~~~~~~~~~~~
While people were busy in the sagan ceremony and sanskaar was helping Arnav’s dad in a few things and meeting with people. Ragini decided to hop onto some delicious food.
Ragini ( to the waiter ) : bhaiya ji.. ek plate pao bhaji aur cold drink le aayie please
He nodded and went while she continued eating the chaat. Swara who saw her alone came and sat beside her. Ragini stopped eating and looked at her with wide eyes.
Swara : it seems you are not happy to see me here..
Ragini ( gulps ): ummm… no actually i was just leaving..
She was about to get up but then the waiter came there with food and cold drinks. She smiled nervously and sat down.

Swara ( taking a bite from her pao bhaji, Ragini eyed that bite like a sad kid ???? ) : you remember ragu how we used to eat chat together, always…hmm??
Ragini smiles nervously. Swara makes a bite and places her hand in front of Ragini’s mouth to feed her. Ragini looks uncomfortable. She was just not ready for any kind of conversation with swara. She needed someone to come and take her away.
Swara ( taking her hand back ) : looks like you don’t want me here…
Ragini ; no it’s okay
Swara ; good…. you know Laksh was taking about you only. He talks about you only.. do you understand??
Ragini looked at her confused.
Swara : and you didn’t want to talk to me r ma and babaa?? You know that we tried to contact you right??
Ragini nods her her head.
Swara: o didn’t sanskaar told you??
She asked innocently. Ragini’s heart was beating faster than a bullet train.
Swara : you know sanskaar met laksh before also?
Ragini looks on……. blank.
Swara : where do you live ragini? With whom do you live?
Ragini : i… i live…
“ Raginiii…” someone calls her. She looks up hurriedly and sees Abhay standing there. She sighs. Swara crushed the tissue paper and fake smiles. Abhay comes to their table.

Abhay : ragini are you okay?
Swara ; why do you think she won’t be? She’s with her sister and not with any stranger.
She knew no one has told Ragini that she was the kidnapper that’s why she wanted to take advantage of the situation.
Abhay : well… i know who’s a stranger and who’s not.
He bends on the table and looks at swara directly in her eyes.
“
stay away from her “
Ragini is confused. Abhay composes himself, holds ragini’s hand and takes her from there. Ragini looks at abhay and then looks back at swara who has made a puppy face.
After they moved away, ragini stops abhay and stares at him. Abhay looks away.
Ragini : what’s the matter abhay? Why did you behaved like that?
Abhay;p what do you mean why? I saw that you were getting uncomfortable that’s why…
Ragini ; no i know something’s more to it….and you have to tell me.
Abhay : ragini i promise it’s nothing… come now … sangeet is about to start…
He pulls her from there takes her in the main hall. Ragini is still in thoughts.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sangeet ceremony starts. It’s basically bride vs groom side.
One of Arnav’s friend is hosting and he calls Anjali, Arnav’s sister and her husband Shyam for the first performance.
Ragini again gets emotional after seeing Anjali but composes herself. The Maheshwari’s are also shocked the replica of Janki, Anjali.

(( SHYAM IS OBVIOUSLY NOT SMIRKING IN THIS SCENE ?? ( ))
Anjali and Shyam dances romantically on o sathi ( from baghi 2 ) and teasingly on aankh maarey ( from samba ). Everyone enjoys the performance and hoots for them.
Next, khushi’s two brothers dances on kar gayi chull ( from kapoor and sons ) teasing khushi. Everyone enjoys.
Payal and Akash danced next on banja tu meri rani ( from tumhari sullu ). They were cute and charming.
Ragini is more than happy and super emotional seeing all the loving bond between the families, which once she wanted. She was looking for sanskaar who was nowhere to be seen. But this time Abhay and Pooja were stick to her.
Both set of parents, buas and phupas, masi and mausa, mam and mami, chacha and chichi, taya and tayiji, everyone then danced to some old songs and traditional Punjabi wedding songs . Whistles and hoots were continuously filling the atmosphere with excitement.
Next it was friends turn to rock the stage. First came the girls side…….
Ragini, Pooja and 5 other friends of khushi acquired the stage and started dancing. They started with London thumkda ( queen ) followed by desi girl ( dostana ). Ragini’s eyes were searching for sanskaar. Then started the Punjabi song 5 lakh da lehnga …….. hooting, whistles, shouts everyone began clapping and cheering.
Girls got more excited and danced like anything on Punjabi wedding songs ( kind of traditional ). Ragini then finally saw her prince charming who was standing by a pillar looking at her in awe. He shows her thumbs and blows a kiss. Ragini smiles and dances with all her heart.
The bride side shows thumbs down and boos to the groom sides. Seeing this the grooms team takes over the stage. Sanskaar, Abhay and a few other friends of arnav comes like a storm and starts dancing on Punjabi songs…. mela ( ammy virk ), laden ( jassi gill )……… everyone hoots for them.
Maheshwari’s are also seeing everything. They are actually happy seeing both of them happy, especially sanskaar. RP and Sujata have tars in their eyes. They side hug each other. Swara too gets emotional seeing ragini and recalls her sangeet night.
Arnav too joins his squad and dances with them, booing the team bride. This calls for a war. Team bride along with khushi joins the dance floor and the songs gallan goodiyan ( from dil dhadkne do ) plays and everyone dances their hearts out. All the family member joins.
Next Arnav And Khushi danced on romantic numbers like Dil Diyan Gallan and tera ban jaunga…… Cute ??
The ceremony continued with songs, food, well, alcohol ( not promoting ) and lots of pictures and memories.

The ladies one by one were getting beautiful designs imprinted onto their hands by henna. Khushi got changed and sat in the centre to get her henna done. Ragini, pooja, swara, pari, payal, addy, sujata, ap and evry other lady got henna on their hands.
Everyone gets busy with guests. Pooja tagged along with Ragini for the whole ceremony bcoz sanskaar was actually busy. Ragini missed him.
Episode ends with a smiling face of Ragini.!
