Hastinapur.....
Royal Palace:

A messenger quickly dashed forwards to the entrance beyond which lay the qauters of the royal women of Hastinapur.

He haulted seeing the gaurds & daasi.
M: Ye patra shigra hi Rajmata Kunti tak pohonchna hai. Jyeshth rajkumar Yudhishthir ka aadesh hai ki ye patra shigra ati shigra keval unki mata ko diya jaye!
He urged making the Daasi nod before talking the bound scroll & rushing inside.

Inside Kunti's Chambers....

Melodious laughter echoed throughout the room as Gandhari, Dushala & Kunti along with her personal attendent Priyamvada sat between an array of the most splendid gold jewels, studded with precious stones & clothes with the richest of brocades as they selected an appropriate ensemble for Dushala's soon to be organised Swayamwar.

D: Waaaah! Kakishree!! Aap hi mere liye ko vastra chun lijiye na! Aapka chayan toh atyant sundar hai!
Dushala beamed, admiring the richly embroidered deep red odhni that Kunti was admiring by placing it on her shoulder.

K: Avashya putri! Ismein toh tum rajkumari nahi apsara lagoge!
Kunti smiled making Dushala giggle & Gandhari look on adoringly at the two.

G: Haan Kunti! Ab tum hi mere netre ho! Batao.... tumhe ye wala kaisa laga?
Gandhari asked happily, holding up a jade green & red lehenga with beautiful golden detailing which made Kunti gasp in awe.

K: Uttam hai jiji! Ati uttam! Aap toh bina netro ki sahayta ke mujhse adhik sundar chun leti hai.
She exclaimed making Gandhari laugh, gathering her in a one armed hug.

D: Pranipaat Rajmata, Maharani, Kumaari! Rajmata, jyeshth rajkumar ne aapke liye gupt sandesh bhijwaya hai.
She exclaimed, her eyes widened on realising that Dushala & Gandhari heard her too & looked confused.
