"Shubh Managala Savadhan", the priest chanted and the veil between Vivek and Naina was lowered. They both smiled at each other. Naina put the flower garland around Vivek's neck and it was Vivek's turn to do the same. However, Sidharth and Adith lifted up Naina to tease Vivek a little. Everyone around enjoyed the banter and had a hearty laugh.

Rekha asked Sana to tie the loose end of the veils of the bride and groom as a ritual (gatbandan) and she happily obliged.

As bride's brother, Sidharth poured the puffed rice into the Naina's hand which were placed over her groom, who then offered it to the sacred fire (Laaja homa). Rest of the rituals of the wedding ceremony followed smoothly.

As a blessing, everyone ushered Akshata (raw rice coated in turmeric and vermilion) on the newly married couple.

Sidharth nudged his elbows with Sana's to bring her out of her thoughts. Sana looked at him who was standing beside her. He poured some Akshata on her head and chuckled.

"Sidhaaarth.. what are you doing?", Sana whined stroking her hair.

"Troubling my better half..", he whispered.

"Don't you have any other work?", She asked rolling her eyes and walking away. Sidharth followed her and took a seat beside her.

"Hmmm.. Why are you angry?", he asked.

"Who? Me? Nope.. Why would I be angry? In fact, I am very delighted because you haven't spoken to me even once since the wedding began.", Sana said sarcastically.

"Oh! But I was busy with work sweetheart.", He gave reason for his missing.

"Yeah, I saw that. You were serving juice to Divya earlier.", Sana mumbled grumpily.

"Huh? Didn't you see that I served juice to her brother, Vivek as well? Why are you so jealous of her?", Sidharth asked.

"Because that b!tch tried to snatch you away from me. Did you forget?", Sana reminded.

"I really did. She is now my cousin's wife and is soon going to be the mother of his child. Now stop crying over her.", Sidharth replied

"You didn't even tell me how am I looking in this dress.", Sana complained with a pouty face.

"Wow!!", He checked her out from top to bottom causing her cheeks to go red.

"Damn! Sana? How could you marry such a loser?", Sidharth spoke with a shocked expression while covering his mouth with his palm

"Damn! Sana? How could you marry such a loser?", Sidharth spoke with a shocked expression while covering his mouth with his palm.

"Huh?", Sana narrowed her eyebrows in confusion and stared at him.

"Yeah! I think you should just leave him and marry me because you know, I have been ogling at you since the time I laid my eyes on you in this outfit.", Sidharth suggests holding her hand in his.
