Aye zindagi...

Mrs Mansi Rao

Raghvi came back home and Raghav looked rather distressed. When Jaya asked he said work load and avoided. Night, Pallavi noticed Raghav looking at the TV but lost in some different world.

Pa : Raghav, Raghav Raghav responded tum Subha jo shop meh hua,you are hurt na? Dekho
Ra : What,no... I'm not bothered about you and Mandar. I know he'll not interfere between us but....
Pa : But?
Ra : Mansi! I don't know why but I find her behaviour strange. Matlab, she's trying to create difference between us and push you towards Mandar... Kyu?
Pa : I don't know, Mansi ka kya faida hai... I mean, Mandar and mujhe pash laake useh kya milega! I'll be infront of her in that house
Ra : That's only if she's planning to stay in that house!!
Pa : Kya??
Ra : What I understand is, she's not after Mandar's happiness,nay... Utna acha nahi hai woh! She's after.... I don't know if my doubt is correct.... She's after me
Pa : Kya! You,you mean,she wants to remove me and be Mrs Rao!
Ra : Jitna maine uska behaviour notice kiya,yeah! And, I'm pretty sure she'll cause some scenes in our remarriage... Uska yeah golden opportunity hai to be with me...
Pa : Mandap meh.. you mean she's planning to replace me and marry you!!
Ra : Bingo!! Cracked the plan... Ha, she's probably planning something like that... Else why would she call you "Vahini" Mandar and Pallavi Deshmukh
Pa : Tum itna dur ka kaise sooch lete ho!
Ra : Coz janeman, I'm Raghav Rao...
Pa : Pallavi Rao's husband
Ra : Jaise Tum bolo,he hugged her jane meri janeman....
Pa : Baspan ka pyaar Mera bhul nahi jana re
Ra : kya! Kounsa Baspan...kaisa pyaar!!
Pa : Tumne Baspan ka pyaar nahi suna! Raghav nodded no wait!!

(PS : I'm no way gonna update the lyrics to increase word count. Listen at your own risk)

Raghav was dumbfounded listening to the song.

Pa : batao,kaisa laga!
Ra : after a brief silence Chiii..... Yeah gana hain!! Kaam seh khun nikal jayega.... Yuk,ish bache ko koi homework do... Baspan ka parhai karao pyaar nahi.... (Basically, he's voicing our thoughts. I feel you Raghav). Tumhara bollywood yeah saab promote kaarke logon ko aur barbad kaar de.... Mera atma bhi cringe kaar gaya.....
Pa : hahaha!!! Tumhara pura maza gila ho gaya
Ra : Ofcourse, janeman bolne seh abhi yaad ayega yeah dusguisting....
Pa : Tum mujhe janeman nahi bologe!
Ra : Nahi! No.... Pallavi made a bad face, Raghav took her in his embrace tum toh mera Jaan hai... Janeman is temporary,jaan is permanent.... Aur Humara baby mera Jahan hoga!
Pa : Raghav! She hugged him being shy
Ra : Kya Raghav! Baby toh hoga hi... I want to feel the life we will bring to earth. Out own blood and flesh. A reflection of us. My own child who'll call me Dad. Whom we can upbring and set a future. Mera itna bara empire kish kaam ka...
Pa : Raghav! How can you be so matured and understanding. Tum kitne achi tarikhe seh chinze samjhate ho... I fall more for you... No wonders,why Mansi fell for you
Ra : But I'll be yours forever, even after death
Pa : Raghav! Humari Shadi thik seh hogi na!
Ra : Ha,Tum china maat karo pov : Even I'm thinking saab thik hoga! Chota bindi ka koi bharosa nahi,kuch aisa waisa kar gaya toh! I can't let her know,we understood her plan! Varna, woh kuch drastic unpredictable karega..   acha Saree ka dukan,suno... Chota bindi ko kuch bolna maat play along, we just need to make sure Mandar uska side nahi jaye,uska bhi plan hai mera pash!

A few days later Raghvi came to Deshmukh nivas. Mansi saw them and was happy to see them especially Raghav. She has done enough of brainwashing on Mandar. Mandar saw Pallavi with longing in his eyes. Ayi Kaka Amruta were happy seeing them... Nikhil was out with work

Ra : Kaisa hai aap saab
Vi : Tum yeha
Sa : Andar ao baccho... Sulochana jao mithai lao beti aur damad ek sath khusi khusi aaj first time aye hai Raghvi took blessings From Kaka and ayi
Am : Jeju, di,they Hugged
Ra : Actually,main and Pallavi Humara aniversary peh remarriage kaar raha hai and you all are invited
Sa : Hum ayenge!
Ma : Kaise ho tum dono!
Pa : We are happy together, Mandar.
Man : Dada! Aap ask kyu kaar rahe ho. Aapka pain ke liye kuch nahi ho sakta. Chaliye room mein, I'll serve you Breakfast room mein
Pa : Mansi! Don't behave like this,Mandar ko tum aise bologi toh... he'll be hurt...
Man : Kya karu Pallavi, Dada always udas rehete hain and I can't bear it...
Ra : We need to give him time and he'll be okay!

They left. Soon the marriage ceremony started.
During mehendi Mansi intentionally said

Man : Pallu,yaad hai, Dada ke time you were do excited to hid his name in your mehendi and were anticipating what will be like when he'll find out. You're so happy and blushing looking at dada Pallavi felt uncomfortable as Mandar was there too. Mansi wanted to add fire Aur firh all those plans we made for your suhagrat. My god,mujhe yaad ate hi, I start laughing,tum first night sunke kitna ghabra gayi Pallavi was now embarrassed,her in-laws are here. Jaya and Keerthi were controlling their anger not to kill the fun. Mansi was about to speak further when
Ra : Aab nahi ghabrati hai! Mansi looked around to find Raghav chota bindi bara shali ... Mera Biwi aab suhagrat seh nahi darti yah ghabrati hain...
Man : pov : Pallavi, tumhare har Nisan ko kita dungi Raghav pe seh, shadi taak I'll endure you,after that, Mera aur Raghav ka suhagrat hoga.... Hello Jeju,she hugged Raghav. Raghav uncomfortably detached himself shali adhi gharwali hoti hai
Ra : Aur,adhi sister bhi....

Fast forward to all the functions. Now, today is marriage. In between Mansi always tried to find opportunity to brainwash Mandar and cause trouble. Pallavi is getting ready and looking at last time makeup when her room door closed. She turned around to find Mandar

Pa : Mandar! Door kholo, Raghav is waiting for me at the mandap
Ma : I can't let you go Pallavi. Main yeah nahi kar sakta.... Please give me a chance... Pallavi was shocked

Here, in the mandap, Raghav was ready wearing sehera. Mansi his her face behind the veil and the marriage rituals started. Raghav puts sindoor in her hair line and the priest declared them married. Mansi showed a wicked smile under the veil. She's finally Raghav's wife. Mrs Mansi Raghav Rao.
