~Car Chor~
Banno re banno meri chali sasural ko
Ankhiyo me paani de gayi
Duaa me meethi gud dhani le gayi
I watch in amusement as Ishani takes a step closer, holding the keys up, her gaze locking onto Bhai’s. “Jiju, abhi door nahi khulega,” she says, her voice light but carrying an undeniable weight. “Not without a little something first.”
“Oh my God!” Agastya almost screams as the realisation that we have been playing dawns on him, “Joota churai the, car thodi,” he says.
“What do you guys want?” Ayush Bhai asks the cheaters, who all have the biggest grins plastered on their faces.
“My sister,” Daksh responds, while at the same time Sahil sings, “Paisa, gaadi, mehnga ghar.”
They both look at each other in disbelief at their completely different answers. Sara, with a laugh, turns to Daksh and says, “Can’t happen, bro. Ab toh humari behen paraya dhan ho chuki hai,” which earns a laugh from everyone. She then looks at Sahil and says, “But I support Sahil’s idea.”
Agastya scoffs and adds, “Even that can’t happen. Bhai, you can take Bhabhi in my car.” He moves to reach for his car keys in his jacket pocket, but his expression quickly changes. I turn to look at Ishani, who’s watching Agastya with a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Agastya frantically searches his jacket and kurta pockets, confusion turning into realization when Sara’s voice rings out, “Looking for this, Agastya?” She dangles his car keys in the air with a triumphant smirk.
