Shruti and Mahika tease Siddharth at the mention of the character Devdas from the same movie. Shruti even labels him as Devdas, leaving him deep in thought. As the class ends, everyone begins to leave. Just then, Siddharth asks the ladies to stay back. The girls exchange a glance but stay, sensing that Siddharth might have something important to discuss with them. When the classroom clears, Siddharth turns his focus to his friends, the pretty ladies giving him their undivided attention. Seeing him silent, Shruti taps his shoulder.

“Kya hua, Sid? Kyun roka humein?” Shruti asks, her curiosity piqued.

“Haan, bolo, Siddy Buoy, tumhe kuch kehna hai?” Mahika asks, her tone soft

“Haan, bolo, Siddy Buoy, tumhe kuch kehna hai?” Mahika asks, her tone soft.

“Haan, vo mujhe tum dono ko kuch dena tha,” Siddharth says hesitantly, as if searching for the right words.

"Achcha, tum hamare liye gift laaye ho? How sweet, Sid!” Shruti chuckles, her tone laced with excitement.

Mahika laughs and playfully pokes Shruti’s arm. “Shru, do you think ye hamare liye gift laayega? Isko treat dene ke liye bhi kitna coax karna padta hai, tujhe maalum hai na,” she says teasingly, glancing at Siddharth with a smirk.

“Arey, arey, tumhari shikayat main aaj door kar dunga, Mahi,” Siddharth says, a smile gracing his lips.

“Achcha kaise? CCD mein bill tum bharoge?” Mahika asks laughingly, her gaze teasing, and Shruti joins in with her.

Siddharth gazes at them, unbothered by their teasing, knowing they are just having fun. A soft smile graces his lips as he rummages through his bag. He takes out two boxes, piquing Shruti and Mahika’s curiosity further. He extends a box to each of them, delighting the girls.

“Ye kya hai, Sid?” Shruti is the first to ask as she takes the gift box from his hand.
