(Purvi comes to kids room with Juhi & Manas. She makes them sit on their beds & went to their cupboards to get their night suits. They both were looking at Purvi who was angry, frustrated & full of tears. They quietly changed their clothes.
She made them brush their teeth & while combing their hair, a tear fell on Juhi's hand. Juhi & Manas quickly went close to her & hugged her tightly.
Juhi & Manas: Aap ro rahe ho naa. Apko bura laga naa jo Nani ne kaha. Bolo naa 'Haathi'....
PURVI: (Wiping off her tears & becoming aware of the name) Kya kaha haathi....?? Hum aap dono ko haathi jaise dikhte hai kya...??
Juhi * Manas: (giggling) Arrey nahi.....wo kya hai hamein haathi bahut pasand hai. Bachpan mein baba hamein jab bhi mela ghoomane lekar jaate the naa toh hamein haathi ki sawari karate the. Aur jaise haathi ek dam bhola sa aur pyaara sa hota hai naa waise hi aap ho....bahut pyaare....( and they pulled the cheeks of Purvi. Purvi almost forgot what had happened few minutes ago. She hugged them back & patted on her backs. )
PURVI: Abb aapne hamara naam toh rakh diya, abb batao hum aapko kis naam se bulaye. Btao...??
Juhi * Manas: (thinking) Haan....aap naa hamein 'Genda aur Khargosh' bulana....!!
PURVI: (smiling) Genda aur Khargosh kyun.....??
Juhi * Manas : Wo kya hai naa, Manas ka favourite toy ye Hippo hai aur mera favourite toy ye bunny. To aap hum dono ko Genda aur Khargosh bulana.....!!
PURVI: Accha theek hai, aaj se aap hamare Genda aur Khargosh, theek......!! Abb jaldi se so jayo, kal school bhi hai naa aap logo ka.....!!
(Purvi makes them sleep. As soon she sees their eyes close, she's about to go when they both hold her hand. She looks back & sees them. They both call her towards them As soon as Purvi leans towards them, they give him a soft kiss on her cheek.)
PURVI: Arre, ye pyaari si kissi kiske liye.....??
Juhi * Manas : Aapne hamein nani ke gusse se bachaya naa isliye........good night haathi.......!!!
(Purvi makes them sleep. She takes a deep breathe & goes out from the room.
The function was over. The guest had left. Haveli was once again filled with utter silence. While crossing the corridor, Purvi remembers each words of Mausi ji. She reaches her room in silence with storm in her mind & heart.)
(Purvi reaches her room & closes it. She went straight in front of the mirror. She looks herself from bottom to top. One by one she removes her jewelry.
* NOW TWO SCENES ARE GOING PARALLELY WITH EACH OTHER *Purvi removes her chunni from her head slowly | The wedding time when a red chunrai was drapped on her head.
She removes the kamar band from her waist | The wedding time when a gadbandhan was made.
She removes the necklace & bangles | The wedding time when she was completing pheras.
She now looks to the mangalsutra she's wearing. | The wedding time when Virendra makes her wear that mangalsutra.She touches her sindoor on her forehead | The wedding time when he fills her hairline with that sindoor.
Purvi takes a deep breathe & closes her eyes. She slowly opens her eyes & sees Virendra's reflection in the mirror. Virendra was standing near the gate.
Purvi quickly looked at him. She looks down & is about to go when Virendra asks her.....Puchegi naa ki yo Sakshi kon se.......... Purvi looks at him. She lowers her eyelids & with heavy voice said......Jis insaan ka naam aapke jeewan mein pehle se hi maujood ho, jis insaan ka naam hamare rishte ke aage bada ho aur jis insaan ke naam ki pehchaan hi itni badi ho....wo insaan bhi bahut zaroori hoga.......hamain ye nahi pata ki mausi ji ko aisa kyun laga ki hum uss naam ki jagah lena chahte hai..par ye toh aap bhi jaante hai ki jin haalaton mein, jin mushkilon mein aur jinn sharton mein hamari shaadi hui hai.......hum toh uss naam ki barabari karne ka kabhi soch hi nahi sakte.......Wo naam iss ghar ke liye, yaha ke logo ke liye aur aapke liye kya mayane rakhta hai ye hum samjh chuke hai......
