Sitara wore a dark yellow long frock with a green duppata. Her hair tied in a braid with flowers on it. She had kept the look simple for her own comfort. Meanwhile Sana and the rest were busy singing.

Two hours later they were finally done with applying Mehndhi on her hands. Sitara had got salars name written too by her own wish. The design looked beautiful. But now she had to wait all night for it to dry. The women had applied lemon and sugar on the Mehndhi so it doesn't get ruined. Sana wad staying at Sitaras place to help her as she couldn't do much with her hands because of the Mehndhi.

As the guests started leaving Sitara noticed her phone that had many missed calls from salar. As she could obviously not pick it she asked Sana to pick it up for her.

"Sana Mera phone toh dena"

"Han" Sana noticed the miss calls "lagta hai salar bhai tum he ziada hi miss karahe hein." She teased
