Mehnat thodi aor karo tabhi champion banogi … waise bhi kuch log hote hain jo khabil hone par bhi Uska khadar nahi karte …. (You have played well but you should concentrate on the your defense. You work hard , only then you can be a champion… There are many people doesn’t respect their own abilities )“.
He gets lost in his thoughts .
There enters Mrs.Antara Mrityunjaya Ahuja.
Antara – “ Mrityunjay.. Pati dev ji .. aap ko der na ho rahe meeting ke liye ?(aren’t you getting late for your meeting?)”.
Mrityunjaya turns to Antara. They smile at each other.
Mrityunjaya- “ Mai toh bas inka khel dekh raha tha .. Mein bhi tayyar ho jate hain (I was just watching their game … I will get ready)”.
He goes to his room.

They stand opposite to each other.
Antara – “ Rudra .. mera baccha.. yeh ke haal bana diya tune .. yeh taara baal kaise bigad diya .. (Rudra .. my child .. what have you done with you.. why did you spoil your hair..)”.
Maya giggles. Rudra makes a cute face.

Rudra (in low tone ) – “ Mummy , we got married ! “.
Antara gets shocked.
She looks Rudra angrily. Rudra steps aback thinking she will slap him. But she goes inside being upset. Rudra relax and Maya stands there silently.
Rudra – “ Don’t worry , she is just shocked . She will be okay “.
Maya – “ Iam not worried “.
Just then a car comes into the haveli through side gate.
Maya gets shocked and looks him. Rudra gets shocked and starts to act like he is surprised.
Maya – “ A car !”.

Rudra turns his head to the other side . Maya gets furious.
Mrityunjaya is getting ready.
Antara comes to room being upset.
Antara – “ Rudra .. aa gaya hain , ji ! (Rudra .. has come ) “.
Mrityunjaya just pause for a moment and then resume getting ready. He nods his heads.
Antara – “ Aap sun rahe ho ? Woh ek kudi ko bhi saath leke aaya hain (Are you hearing ? He has brought a girl with him) “.
Mrityunjaya- “ Toh ? (So? ) “
Antara – “ Bol raha ke vyah hogayi hain dono ke ! Aap kuch bolte kyun nahi ho ? ( He telling that they got married! Why aren’t you speaking anything? )
Mrityunjaya (sarcastically)- “ Very good !”
Antara- “ Mei mazak nahi kar rahi hoon .. aap aise thanda kaise ho ? ( Iam not joking .. how can you be so cool ?)
Mrityunjaya- “ Mei toh kab ka chod diya uske chintha karna , Maa aur tum ne hi toh uske har baat pe saath de rahe the. Ab Jelo! Mujhe uss mei khasitto.. (Long back I left overthinking about him , Mother and you were supporting him in everything, now suffer ! Don’t drag me into this ) “.
Antara – “ Aap toh uske baap hain na ?.. aap samjhao na usse ( You are his father , right ?.. can’t you make him understand) “.
Mrityunjaya- “ Ek baar usse rah dekhne ke koshish kiya tha tab tum log ne hi mujhe roka tha na ?… ab usse jo karna hain karne doo, mujhe koi problem nahi ( Once I tried to show him a path but you both stopped me , right ?… now let him do whatever he want , I don’t have any problem )“.
Antara stands there silently. Mrityunjaya takes his purse and goes from the room and Antara follows him.
Just then Rishi ( 19 years ) comes to the entrance with his milk glass . He stops seeing Rudra and Maya talking to each other near door step.
Rudra – “ Just behave sweetly with Mummy and Dadi (grandmother) , you can handle them . Then they will help us and will make my father okay “.
Maya – “ Yeah… But I think I can’t handle this saree !”.
Rudra – “ It isn’t a big deal “.
He just mimics how carry a saree well. Rishi gets to see his brother and he comes there . Maya and Rudra doesn’t notice him. Maya is looking him seriously .
Rishi – “ Oyy .. yeh mei kya dekh raha ? Mere veer ji ke yeh hunar toh mujhe pata hi nahi the ! ( Oho.. what am I seeing? I wasn’t aware of my brother’s this talent )”.
Rudra stands properly and Maya looks Rishi being clueless. Rishi suddenly jumps upon Rudra and hugs him.
Rudra gets suffocated by tight hug of Rishi. Maya giggles.
Rishi – “ So finally you came ? Will you leave again ?”
Rudra – “ If you hug me like I may leave the world very soon “.
Rishi – “ You are still funny ! By the way , who is this beautiful lady ?”
Maya – “ Iam Maya Jaisingh, Iam Rudra’s… b.. “.
Rudra (interrupts )- “ Biwi “.

Rishi – “ What ? “
Just then Mrityunjaya and Antara comes towards entrance. Rudra and Maya gets to see his parents.
Rudra ( whispers) – “ This is my father .. Mrityunjaya Ahuja “.
Maya – “ Mm “.
Antara (whispers) – “ Yeh hain Rudra ki .. ( She is Rudra’s .. ) “.
Mrityunjaya keeps a fake smile as Rudra comes towards him.
Mrityunjaya- “ Aap agaye? Mumbai Kaisa hain .. doob toh nahi gaya hain na ?… ( So you came ? How is Mumbai .. It haven’t sink yet , right ?) “.
Rudra – “ Kyun ? (Why) “.
Mrityunjaya- “ Suna hain jagah badal ne se insaan nahi badalte (I have heard that people won’t change by changing their place )“.
Rudra gets angry but before he could say something. Mrityunjaya looks Antara.
Mrityunjaya- “ Kuch acha sa khilana bete ko bohat thakk gaya hoga bade aadmi jo ban ke aaya hain .. 3 mahine mehnat karke aaya hain ( Fed your son well , he may be tired after becoming a big man .. he has came after hardworking for 3 months )”.
Mrityunjaya leaves. Rudra gets annoyed with his comment. Antara stands there looking Rudra.
Rudra – “ He is always like this “.
Antara- “ Ab woh galat hain ? Jo tu ne kiya woh sahi hain ? (So now he is wrong ? What you did is right ? ) “.
Rudra (dramatically) – “ Mummy , So you want us to leave ? Fine … Iam Sorry , Maya . I promised you that my mother will consider you as a daughter instead of daughter in law … but she has proven me wrong) “.
Antara’s heart melts . Rudra understands it.
Rudra – “ But Mummy, I wish you will allow her to change her wet clothes before we leave.. Afterall a woman can understand this situation “.
Antara – “ Beta, aap aa jao… “.
Antara holds her hand and takes her .
Rudra – “ Maya, please come fast .. we have to catch train back to Mumbai “.
Antara – “ Chup kar Dramebaaz ! (Shut up Dramaking !) “.
Rishi – “ Absolutely!”
Rudra smiles . Maya turns to him and he shows thumbs up. Rishi sees it and nods his head. But then see that Antara is taking her to outhouse . Rudra gets confused. He goes behind her.
Rudra – “ Mummy, kithe leke jaa rahe ho ?”
Antara – “ Outhouse ! Is ko change karna hain na ? uske baad hi grahapravesh hogi (She has to change , right ? After this only welcoming ceremony will conducted “.
Rudra – “ Oho .. “.
Antara – “ Iam doing this for her .. you change your clothes as well“.
Antara takes them to out house and goes to do arrangements for welcoming ceremony. Rudra and Maya gets ready .
Rudra wears a light green Kurta with pyjama and Maya wears black Churidar with red dupatta . She wears a dangling earring and keeps it simple.
Rudra see her.
Rudra – “ You could have worn a saree “.
Maya – “ I can’t handle it, they all saw me in saree first time . That’s fine. Why are you so obsessed with the saree look ?”
Rudra – “ Nothing.. I just thought that it will help you to impress my family. I hope Dadi will accept you “.
Maya – “ What is this Man ? Iam feeling like I have came here to for a contest “.
They comes and stands on the door step.
After sometimes, Mrityunjaya comes back . Rishi brings Dadi . Antara does their Aarti. Mrityunjaya stands there just to keep Antara’s word. Dadi isn’t much pleased. Rishi is standing behind Dadi .
Rishi (whispers)- “ Dadi, Bhabhi khoobsurat lag rahi hain na ? ( Grandma, Sister-in-law is looking beautiful, right?)”.
Dadi (whispers) – “ Itni khasa bhi nahi hain, dekho kon aapna grahavesh mein kaala rang ke kapde pehnte hain ? ( She doesn’t look so special, see who wears black dress for her own welcoming ceremony?)”.
Rishi – “ Bhabhi toh black dress acchi dekh rahi hain .. Dadi , Bhaiya aur Bhabhi ke shaadi chup ke se huyi issi baat naraz ho na ? ( Sister in-law is looking good in black .. Grandma, you are upset as they got married secretly, right ?) “.
Dadi stands there being upset. Mrityunjaya is also not so happy. Rudra ignores his father. Maya kicks the kaalash (copper pot with rice ) and she steps in red coloured water and leaves her foot prints on the floor. Maya and Rudra touches Antara and Mrityunjaya’s feet. They blesses the couple with half mind . There is some issues between father and son which is visible as they don’t look each other.
Maya notices it. Then they goes to Dadi but Dadi turns her face . Rudra – “ Dadi, aap ka favorite mein hoon na ? toh aap meri pasand ko nahi aapnaongi ? ( Grandma, Iam your favorite, right ? So you would accept my choice ?)”.
Dadi melts . Mrityunjaya leaves to his room. Couples touches Dadi’s feet and she blesses them.
Rishi – “ Hai , Bhabhi . Iam Rishi , your brother in law “.
Maya – “ Hai Rishi .. “.
Antara – “ You both came after a long train journey, you take rest. Rudra just come to me after sometime “.
Everyone leaves. Maya and Rudra stands there thinking about how to deal with the family .
