Mishti, Nikki and Shivi were playing in the courtyard.
Vishambhar came back home.
Vishambhar- Mishti!! Beta taiyar ho ja. Humare ghar mehmaan aa rahe hain.
Mishti- kaun aa raha hai baba??
Vishambhar- beta, pehle tu taiyar toh ho ja, jab aaeinge toh tujhe bata deinge.

Nikki was busy setting Mishti's dupatta.
Shivi (giving surma)- didi, yeh toh laga lo aap.
Mishti- nahi, yeh laga liya.
Rajshree hurriedly came inside.
Rajshree- ho gaya taiyar mera bachcha. Chal uth. Tera hi intzaar kar rahe hain. Chal jaldi.
Mishti- maa, mujhe kyun saja rahe ho?? Kaun aaya hai??
Rajshree- beta tere sasural wale hain. Tujhe roka karne aaye hain.
Mishti was shocked. It was as if everything ended. She was not even able to speak. Rajshree took Mishti outside. Mishti was all lost and a kind of sad as well. As Mishti reached near everyone, she greeted everyone. Meenakshi got up and hugged Mishti.
Mishti was made seated on the chair.
Mishti dukhi thi, par uss se jyada dukhi aur ek aatma wahaan baithi thi. And that was none other than Bhanwari.
Vishal and Bhanwari were also present there. Vishal was happy for Mishti, but Bhanwari wasn't.
Meenakshi gave shagun to Mishti and did roka. Mishti touched Meenakshi's feet and took blessings. Meenakshi again hugs Mishti.
Bhanwari made a sadi huyi shakal seeing Mishti.
[Note:- on older times, bride and groom never used to meet each other before marriage. The bride sees her husband for the first time on the wedding night, that's why, only Meenakshi and Mehul came for Mishti's roka.]

Mishti was playing stones (kind of game played in older times) with Reet, Jassi and Sneha.
Mishti- kaun hai woh ladka??
Reet- woh Raju bhai ki shadi pe aaya toh tha woh ladka. Woh lamba sa.
Mishti was taking her turn. Mishti still didn't understand, whom Reet was talking about.
Jassi- tujhe na kuch nahi pata hota. Wahi hai, jo jeep mein firta rehta hai.
Hearing that, Mishti's hands stopped.
[The video given ahead is Mishti's dream sequence. For some time, imagine Manjinder (Tarsem Jassar) as Abir and Guddi (Simmi Chahal) as Mishti.
I know maximum of you won't be able to understand the lyrics, so for that, I've given the translation after the video, you can read that.
Do see the video to know what Mishti visualised.]

Das mereya dilbara ve,
Tu kede arash da taara
Das mereya dilbara (x2)
O my beloved, tell me which sky's star you are, oh my beloved...
Main aje na dasna ni (x2)
Ke jad tak sada pyar kuwara.
