Zubin who was going to return after 2 months is returning now after 3 months as his work didn't complete so he had to extend his stay....

Here in Mumbai, the wedding preparations were going on in full swing as only 1 month was left for "The Wedding Day"....

Mukti asked, Maaa Papaa!!! Manik ka call aaya tha kya??? Main usse kal se call kar rahi hunn, woh call hi nahi utha raha hai...
Agar yeh uska phir se koi surprise hai toh main bata rahi hunn ki iss baar toh pakka uski khair nahi hai...

Mukti's dad replied, Nahi beta uska koi call nahi aaya hai...
Doo dinn se meri bhi usse koi baat nahi hui hai...

Her mom said, Aur surprise jaisa humein kuch nahi pata...

2 Days Later,

Zubin returned to Mumbai after 10 months....

The first thing he did was to take Mukti out for dinner the same evening as they were meeting after almost 5 months....

There she told him that they can't marry in Mumbai....

When he asked her the reason she told him about her conversation with Manik....

Mukti said, Kal raat Manik ka call aaya tha...

Zubin asked, So kya hua???
Woh bhi Mumbai aane wala tha naa abhi, kya hua aaya nahi hai??? Kab aa raha hai woh???

Mukti replied, Woh nahi aa sakta hai, wahi toh problem hai...
Usne kal raat call kiya tha woh bhi 3 dinn baad, warna toh roz Ghar par uska ek call toh aata hi hai...

Zubin asked, Kya hua tha usse??? Uski tabiyat toh theek thi naa???

Mukti said, Haan tabiyat toh theek thi but uska dil nahi...
2 dinn se Alya ke call aa rahe thee, iss wajah se Manik disturb hogaya tha usne mushkil se 2 months se apne aapko sambhala tha and thoda move on kiya tha...

Zubin asked, Iska shaadi ki location change karne se kya lena dena???Manik jaanta tha ki Alya yahan hogi and yeh jaante hue woh aane wala tha toh abb kyun mana kar raha hai???

Mukti replied, Haan woh aane wala tha par tab yeh nahi jaanta tha ki Alya shaadi karne wali haiii...
Main wohi bol rahi thi ki yesterday jab call nahi uthaya toh Alya ka text aaya tha and usme usne apne shaadi ka card send kiya tha...
Uske hone wale husband ki wish hai ki woh apne hometown mein nahi balki Mumbai mein destination wedding karein and 15 days mein uski shaadi hai...
Shaadi mein invite karne ke liye woh Manik ko call kar rahi thi par jab call nahi laga toh usne card aur voice note chod diya chat mein...
Zubin humein kuch toh karna hoga...
Manik bohot mushkil se aage badha hai main uski mehnat aur humara family time ko zaya nahi hone de sakti...
Jab woh gaya tha tab usne sirf kaha tha but last week jab uski Mumbai ki ticket book ki thi tab usne confirm kiya tha ki shaadi ke baad woh kuch waqt mein Mumbai yahan Maa-Papa ke paas return aa jayega...
But iss ek message ne usse unke sath bitaye hue pal aur uska sacrifice yaad dila diya...

Zubin said, Ek idea hai... Tumhein batana bhul gaya tha ki Jeff, Delhi University se apni padhai puri karke Bhopal shift hogayi thi apni internship ke liye kyunki usse wahan placement mila tha...

Mukti asked, Iss baat ko kitna waqt hogaya hunn???
Tum bata nahi sakte thee...
Woh Kahan reh rahi hai???
Batate toh sahi, usse Manik ke saath hi rehne ko keh deti...

Zubin said, Sorry batana bhul gaya tha and kuch waqt baad laga ki Mom ne bata diya hoga and hum kabhi Jeff ke baare mein baat nahi karte so yaad bhi nahi aaya...
Woh aur uski friend dono ko saath mein internship offer hui thi so woh dono PG mein saath rehte hain...
Jeff ko kaam hai so woh baaki saare functions mein nahi sirf shaadi mein aane wali thi...
So idea yeh hai ki humm shaadi Bhopal mein karte hainnn...
Iss se Jeff and Manik ka yahan na aane ka problem solve ho jayega...

Mukti said, Haan yeh sahi rahega aur hamari destination wedding bhi ho jayegi and Manik aur Jeff attend kar payenge yeh jaanke families bhi mana nahi karegi...
But it's last minute will we get bookings there???

Zubin said, Ghar jaake apne Mom-Dad se baat karte hain aur kal se hi check out karna start karte hain...
Abhi bhi one month hai toh mil jayega...
But yaad rakhna Mom-Dad se baat karne se pehle Manik ya Jeff ko kuch maat batana...

Mukti said, Okk!!! Chalo bill bharke nikalte hain...

They leave from there and Zubin drops Mukti at her house and then goes to his house. As their parents had slept they also changed and slept....

Next Day,

They both discussed the Bhopal Wedding plan with their respective parents. And also specially mentioned that Manik and Jeff would be able to properly attend their marriage so parents who initially were reluctant also agreed as Manik and Jeff were a part of the family who due to some reasons weren't able to attend the marriage....

Mukti had called Zubin to inform him that her parents had agreed where he informed her the same....

Then they started searching for a venue in Bhopal....

In the evening both called Manik and Jeff respectively and informed them about their Bhopal Wedding plan and that all 4 parents had agreed for it....

Wedding Day,

Zubin asked, Mom Jeff aayi kya???
Usko Mukti ke room mein bheja tha to give her my gift but ek ghanta hogaya and abb tak woh return nahi aayi...
Plzz check ki woh kahan hai...

His mom replied, Okk!!! Main jaake dekhti hunn ki Jeff kahan hai but tum jaldi ready ho jao... Doo ghanto mein tumhari shaadi and abhi kuch hi derr mein Panditji bhi tumhein bulayenge shaadi ke pehle ki kuch rasmon ke liye...

She leaves his room to check for Jeff and other marriage preparations....

Mukti's mom and her friends get her ready in her room and then her mom leaves to attend to the guests....

Half an hour later Zubin is called down in the Mandap for his Pre-wedding rituals and after about an hour Mukti is called down by Panditji....

Once she arrives they go for Vaar-Mala rasam and then proceed to other rituals....

All throughout the wedding they both were very happy as all their family members and close ones were part of their "Big Day"....

After marriage they stayed in Bhopal for a day as all were very tired after the wedding and the day after they took a flight back to Mumbai....

Jeff came to Mumbai for 3 days to spend time with her family as anyways after that Mukti and Zubin were leaving for their honeymoon....

Whereas Manik didn't come back. He stayed back so as to complete his work so that after that he can permanently return back to Mumbai....

A Few Days Later,

While in Bhopal, Manik got a call from Alya and this time he picked it up because now he felt that he had moved on and could talk to her....

She informed him that she got married last month and the man she married was her parents choice and now she also likes him and that they bond well with each other....

And at last she mentioned that she has shifted to Dehradun forever because her husband's house is in Dehradun....

Manik congratulated her and also felt sorry because he couldn't attend her wedding....

Someone called Alya and so she hung the call saying bye to him and thank you for supporting her in her alone days....

With this Manik got a closure from their relationship as now Alya had moved on and with this news he also got the strength to move on in life....
