It's not easy for any girl to leave her home after marriage. It's not easy to leave her family members.

Parents who always love their children and shower with blessings. They secure their future so that she become independent. They fulfil all their needs.

If you wake up late some day, they bring your breakfast and tea to your bed.

Grandparents who cherish and teach them culture and their values. They make desi ghee laddus in winters. They braids her hair for school.

Small fights between siblings. That fights for Aloo ke parathe on the dining table. Pulling each other's legs.

It's not easy for girls to leave her parents house for in - law's house.

Shrijita knew that she loves her husband before their marriage. At first she had crush on her boss. After workings for months, she fell in love and finally her boss's family brought proposal of marriage.

In beginning, she didn't know that proposal came from her boss. After meeting with him personally she got to know that her boss was her fiance. About his son, she felt motherly love from her first meeting.

Aarav found love, care and attention which he wanted from mother.

People say that no one can match mother's love.

For shivansh, at first he wanted to marry a girl for his son. But after knowing that her soon bride was her secretary, he relieved.

Because he knew her that she cared for his son.

Gradually, he was attracted to her. He changed his prespective for marriages. He never wanted to lose someone whom he loved but his first love died.

So, this all things were new to them. One side love was growing and on the other side he was on step of love.

He didn't want to accept that love. Fear was his one of the reason for not accepting her love.

The car stopped at her new home. She came out of the car with the help of shivansh who extended his hand for holding.

Her mother in law did their aarti and told her to kick the rice filled kalash with her right leg. After that she dipped her legs in roli's water (In India, there is a red colour powder which we applied on our forehead and used in many holy works) and went towards puja room.

Her sister-in-law gave her haldi paste in which she dipped her hands and left her hands mark in puja room.

Her grandmother told her to lit the diya and after that couple took blessing from gods.

They both sat to face each other and in between, there is big bowl of mixture of milk and water. They had to find the ring from that mixture. Whoever wins the game will have dominant in marriage. This is ritual called ring finding.

"Mai toh bhabhi ke team m hu." Aarushi her sister-in-law said to everyone. "Mai bhi." Akash her brother-in-law said while smirking at shivansh.

[I am in bhabhi's team]

[I am also]

"Tum log kisi ke team m hi raho mai toh apni beti ke sath hu." Her father-in-law said keeping his hand on her head.

[You stay in someone's team, I am with my daughter.]

Dadaji and dadiji also said that they are in shrijita side. "Mai dono ki team m hu. Dono Mere hi bachche hai jo bhi jite mai khush hogi."

[I am on team of both. Both are my children, Whoever wins I will be happy]

"Kya baat hai Mrs. Kashyap aate hi mere pure family ko apni side kar liya." Shivansh teased and everyone laughed at his remark. Shrijita blushed after hearing this and shook her head in denial.
