Here Ridhima is the daughter of a big businessman….she is “bade baap ki bigadi huyi aulad”….. She is committed was Kabeer who is not rich but spoiled. Ridhima’s friends are Gayu and Ishani. They are also spoiled brats and always supported her in every matter (#kand).
Ridhima’s father didn’t like Kabeer so he somehow married Ridhima with his business partner ” Vansh Raisinghania…” He is a rich, kind-hearted and very sweet person but not modern like today’s generation. His dressing sense is not good according to people and his beards make him look more elder. He always wears loose clothes, not more conscious about his look.
Vansh agreed to marry Ridhima not because of business but he liked her when he saw her at one of the parties that were organised by her father. When her father came with alliance so he didn’t deny it.
Now they are married today and he is going to thier room. when he entered the room, he saw that Ridhima already slept. He went to her and called her but she didn’t respond. He took the blanket and pillow from the bed, moved to the balcony.
In morning…
Vansh woke up at 8 O’clock and saw that Ridhima was still sleeping. He went to her and called her name but she was in deep slumber. He patted on her cheek ” Ridhima….Ridhima utho.”
She lazily opened her eyes after sometime and then quickly sat on the bed. Vansh “good morning”
Ridhima with irritated face ” kya hai…kyu uthaya”
Vansh: wo…everyone is waiting for you as today is your first day so you have to perform some ritual today.
Ridhima: or kitna drama krna hai tumhre ghar wall ko….kl se pareshan kr ke rkha hai….Already dad forcefully bonded me to you, now your family.
Vansh: I will tell them not to force for any ritual…you just go and get fresh then come for breakfast.
Ridhima moved to bath and soon come out in shorts and crop top. Vansh looked at her and asked “you are going to wear this today”….Ridhima replied irritatedly ” yes!! Any problem”
Vansh: no, I was just asking as today is your first day so I thought you will going to wear something traditional.
Ridhima: saadhi to marzi se huyi nhi kya kapade bhi nah pahanu apni marzi k.
Vansh: you are taking me wrong I just expressed what I was feeling and I am…
Ridhima interrupted ” no need to give any explanation….I know how are you and your mentality…old like you”
Saying this she moved out of the room and vansh already informed his family not to say anything to her. After breakfast vansh went to the office.
In Riansh’s room
Ridhima was talking to gayu ,Ishani and cry ” how ugly and old he is. Dad spoiled my life “
Gayu ” don’t cry we will find a solution soon”
Ishani: yeah!
Ridhima: I don’t know how I will live with him under the same roof. He is so weird and his dressing sense “eeeeuuuu”. I don’t know what dad had seen in him so he chained me to him…”
Ishani: yes he is so aged….I saw him yesterday only and look at you, you are so pretty.
Ridhima: yes! He look like an uncle in front of me. I can’t spoil my whole life for him…soon I will be going to divorce him.
Gayu: but on what basis…did he force himself on you or ill-treated.
Ridhima: no!! But I can’t live with him. I feel like vomiting whenever I see his face. He is so horrible.
Ishani: that’s true.
They kept thinking about the idea of how can she divorce him. Time skipped, Vansh returned from the office. When he entered the room he saw ridhima who was sitting on the bed and busy with her phone. He went to the bathroom and came back after changing his clothes then sat in front of her on the bed.
Vansh: Ridhima I called you in the afternoon but you didn’t receive my call.
Ridhima (still looking into phone): I was busy.
Vansh: have you done with your dinner.
Ridhima: yes!!
Vansh: how was your day?
Ridhima: what are you expecting from one who is forcefully chained to a person….and now get up from here I want to sleep… at least I can find peace in it.
Vansh went to the window and kept looking at the stars who were twinkling just opposite to his life. He kept staring them for an hour with the thought ” she is behaving like this because she is upset and away from her family….soon she will going to understand him and feelings”…. then went downstairs for dinner. He was searching food in the kitchen when D’suaza came.
D’sauma: what happened?
Vansh: nothing! Just warming my food.
D’suaza: sorry!! I thought Ridhima will do it so I didn’t.
Vansh: it’s okay! I will do it.
D’suaza: no, since childhood I took care of these things then why not now. You are like my son. You go and sit. I will do that.
Vansh smiled at her and went out of the kitchen.
____________________________________________
Days started passing like this. Vansh always tried to interact with ridhima but she always showed cold side and taunted him. He thought that she is upset because she was not ready to marry him and her father forced her. But all this can’t give her permission to insult him and taunt him daily. She use to talk to her friends most of the time and cry out her venthas.
It was night when vansh came with flowers bouquet and chocolate box. He gave it to her and she took them threw them on the bad like trash. Vansh looked at her with painful eyes, these were not just flowers and chocolate. they were his feeling and love to her but she crashed them under her feet. His heart piered but he didn’t his feeling to her.
Vansh: you don’t like roses.
Ridhima: yeah! I don’t like this drama….these things are not of my standard… This must be new and exciting for you….when I was in college daily boys use to do this for me so nothing is new for me. I am fed up with all these things.
Vansh: sorry!! I didn’t know about all this….i will remember next time. Can you tell me your like or dislike so that I will not this thing again.
Ridhima: no need to do anything for me and don’t behave as teenage….if you really care about me then never interrupt in my life and stay aways from me as much as you can….i will be super happy.
Vansh looked at her, tears started forming in his eyes…he was already hurt now she said this. What he want to little attention from her but seems like he is expecting from wrong person.
____________________________________________
Now Ridhima started going out and doing parties.
It was 10 O’clock when Ridhima getting ready for the party. Vansh came from office “Ridhima it’s late if you will go now then at which time you will come…”
Ridhima with anger ” I know we are married but you can’t prison me and I can go anywhere at any time…..you are no one to stop me.”
Vansh: I was just saying Ridhima because it is not safe for you…
Ridhima (shouted): shut up!! I am not a kid. I know what is better for me and don’t need anybody’s interference to live my life. One last time I am saying don’t try to boss around me.
Saying this she moved out and waited at the gate for her friend. Vansh was watching her from the window. He was hurt because he was trying hard to mend their relation but seems like she was hell-bent to ignore his efforts.
He always thought that his wife will accept him as he is. She will love him not his look but table turned…and his life became more miserable than earlier. She never spared him and was always ready to argue with him where he always tried to be polite with her but she never understood his side…or should I say she don’t want to understand him and his feelings.
Now he is thinking why he married her because her behaviour is not so good. He did a mistake…yes he did a mistake by loving a person with just one glance. Is he too fell for her beauty only….he is same as others who are making fun of him, if not then why did he married her. She even doesn’t like his presence around her then how can she going to love him then…. love at first sight is always love or just attraction….or facade on the name of love. Just looking at one person and then falling head over heel in the love…. does it make sense if yes then why he is suffering.
” Love ” what is love? How can one reach to person’s soul just by glancing once? Are all these things just for tales….like falling in love with a person by just looking then that person also reciprocate with the same passion….why did vansh’s case is different. Is there any other criteria for falling love at sight then later on other person too going to reciprocate with same passion….is there essential to look beautiful or handsome?
——————————————–
Vansh was upset about her bad behaviour toward him and his family. He decided to live in another mansion so that his family should not face her ranting.
This was the biggest mistake of his life ” leaving the house”. Now she became freer. She started holding parties at home only. Her friends always laying there only. They use to make fun of him and his look.
Worst thing was that Ridhima was too participating. She even doesn’t care about introducing her friends to him.
Now vansh started coming from the back door because many times he heard her friend’s talk about him. He was hurt not because they were vomiting shit but she was equally participating. It was okay that she always taunted him but she is making fun of him in front of her friends….she is opening their personal life to them.
Thinking all these things his eyes use to get watery but no one can understand his pain. Since childhood, he faced all these things but at that time he had one hope that his better half will be going to understand him….will going to love him the way he is….will going to soothe his pain…will going to make him free from all these burdens…will going to understand his feeling…will going to make him comfortable so that he can open his heart easily but his luck not so good.
His mother died when he was 5 years old and his stepmother never cared about him. His aunt never bothered for all these things as for her only gold and money is important and his uncle also didn’t interact much with him. For his cousin, he was a piece of fun only….he also don’t have any friend.
He had so many expectations from his wife but now they had no meaning. Don’t know on what basis they were living together. Getting away from each other is more better than living in a relationship where another person is not interested in you…..but he don’t want to leave single chance where he can show his love for her. He was trying his best to make her notice his love for her but she was blind in facial beauty…..
In morning…
Vansh: are you going anywhere?
Ridhima: yeah!
Vansh: where?
Ridhima: XYZ cafe.
Vansh: come I will drop you as it is in my way only.
Ridhima: no need, I will go even I will take time to get ready.
Vansh: no problem ,I can wait..
Ridhima irritatedly said, “why are you not understanding that I dont want to go with you.”
Vansh: but what is problem in going with me. Ridhima we are married.
Ridhima: stop singing this song “marriage…marriage ” just look at youself…if my friends will see me with you then what will they going to think about me. I am so beautiful whereas you look like my uncle…and look at my bad luck that I married to you. Whole college was mad at me and now I am married to a person who is aged. I don’t want those boys to make fun of me whom I rejected…. they will come to me and taunt me because of you.
vansh said with painful eyes: if I am that bad then why did you come in mandap and made your life miserable….why?
Ridhima: because my father forced me….
Vansh: what is the result of this namesake relation.
Ridhima: nothing…I am getting late leave my way.
Vansh came into this house so that he could spend more time with her alone and thought maybe this closeness would mend their relation but now they became more distanced. Ridhima even denied to share the same room. They were just living in one house but not together…
____________________________________________
It was nighttime, vansh was standing on the window and staring at the stars…. He noticed that someone was standing at the main gate and soon he saw that Ridhima came out of the house. He became more attentive. She hugged him then they locked their lips.
Watching this scene vansh’s heart broke into millions of pieces. A hot tear dropped from his eyes….till now he never cried except his mother’s death but today’s scene brought tears to his eyes…yeah, many times tears formed in his eyes but he never allowed them to come out but today he didn’t able to hold them in eyes only…. He want to scream and ask her does his look more matters than his love…..does his care and concern is nothing in front of his look. He became breathless and came on his knees
…. hit the near window, glass of the window pierced his skill, blood started dozing…he was crying. He loved her and never expected her to love him back wanted to her little attention and transparency from her side.
His eyes were red and he was hurt. He never gave attention to her taunts but today she crossed her all limits. She could ask for divorce but she choose to deceive him. Venting out his grief in room only, he moved to her room, she was talking on phone.
Ridhima: you don’t manners…how can you enter into my room without my permission.
Vansh: these talks don’t look good from your mouth, tell me whom you met a while ago.
Ridhima: it’s none of your business.
Vansh came to her and hold her shoulders and said ” it is my business because we are married “
Ridhima: he is my friend.
Vansh: I thought you are angry because you were not ready to marry me but I have never thought you are doing this behind me…you cheating on me.
Ridhima: shut up and who are to blame me.
Vansh looked into her eyes and she too looked into his eyes….thier faces were so close to each other for the first time….his eyes were clearly showing his hurt and pain….they remained silent for some time, to find answers ” I know I am nothing for you, if you told me that you loved your so-called friend then I would have never married to you. Why did you hide this thing from me?….why did you agree to marry me when you knew that you can never love an ugly person like me….why did you made fun of the most precious relation called marriage….why damn it why..
Ridhima: just look at yourself vansh who will going to love a man like you….if I had a choice then I would never even look man like you, marriage is more far…..it was my bad luck that my dad chained me with you. I don’t know what he had seen in you so he chose you for me….I always loved kabeer, not you….and can never love other person. If you are blaming me that why married to you then you also know that I wasn’t agree…i was forced so keep this anger with you. You should happy that you married beautiful and gorgeous girl like…otherwise boys die for talking to me….it is your luck that you got a chance to live with me.
Vansh: I wish, you could see that everytime look doesn’t matter….but feels matters. If you showed trust on me and shared your problem then the situation must be different but from now you are free of this relation.
Ridhima: what do you mean?
Vansh closed his eyes and said ” we are going to part. Tomorrow we will going take divorce then you can move out from this unwanted relation happily…..”
Ridhima asked with a smile and with full happiness ” really….now I don’t have to live with you”
Vansh: yes!!! Now you don’t have to bear me….what is the meaning of being in a relation when other is not happy with you and even there is no hope in future too…. it’s better we should part so that you can get rid of me.
Ridhima: yeah!! There is no meaning we don’t have any match.
Next day they divorced…. court gave them an order to live together for 6 months then they can part away. After two three days, Ridhima fainted and now the doctor is checking her. Vansh is worriedly looking at her.
Vansh: what happen, doctor.
Doctor: nothing to worry about, you are going to be father. Congratulations.
Vansh looked at the doctor then at ridhima. Vansh was not able to find what he was feeling because now they are divorced then expecting something from her is foolishness but how can he accept that his so-called wife having extramarital affair and now she is pregnent with his child.
He can’t say anything to him as now they don’t share any relation even he never said anything to her but now he lost all his right on her….those right that were never his. She never even talked normally to him…is his love was too weak that he was not able to make a place in her heart. It was said when we live with a person then we use to develop soft corner or feeling for the person with whom we are living….then why did Ridhima didn’t feel anything for him when he gave his best to make her comfortable and always did things according to her will only then why did she never developed feeling for vansh.
Is hatred was more in her heart or Kaber’s love was more powerful that is why she never gave importance to vansh’s feeling …..or what could be the reason that doesn’t allow her to love her husband….it pains….yes it pains seeing her like this…it pains to know that she never belonged to him.
Does he ever be love someone or in this birth anyone going to love him….does he ever going to believe in the word “LOVE”. What was his fault?… that he agreed to marry her….even she agreed to marry with him but the difference was that she never stayed loyal to this marriage…..Who was at fault….
or to be loved by someone you should be beautiful by face….I knew many use to say that look doesn’t matter but the purity of heart matters but it is not true everytime…look does matter….otherwise love at first doesn’t exist….
Doctor: Mr. Raisinghania it is common for present ladies and be careful next time.
Soon doctor left the place.
Ridhima: vansh we are already divorced so announced this news to your family as I am going to become mother so I want to celebrate this moment with my love?
Vansh: yeah, today only I will tell them and I will move to them…you can live here as many days you want….I know your family will not going to accept it this soon… so you can use this house.
Ridhima: no, I will manage.
Vansh: take this as a gift for living with this unwanted person when you are so beautiful so take it as payment for living these days with ugly person……
Ridhima: I will leave today only, no need to take pressure on yourself for me….kabeer love me to this extent that he can do anything for me so he can arrange house for me….
Vansh: take care!!! I will take leave after an hour.
No one going to say that ridhima is not like this then tell me one thing that is vansh the ways writers are showing…, rapist and sadist, what not…so it is just imagination of author means mine…don’t take it serious….
