The next day everyone was up early for the last ritual before the wedding was still left ie, the Haldi ceremony.
Aahana dressed in a yellow suit sat on a stool all ready for the ceremony to begin and which started with her mother dipping two sticks ends in different earthen bowls filled with different paste, lightly touching her head,legs, hands,face and shoulders so as to leave traces of it. Soon Snighda was replaced by another relative and which lasted for sometime.
After the haldi ceremony was over all went to their rooms to get ready for the wedding.
Aahana too left for her room soon after where a lady was waiting to dress her up so as to make her look the most beautiful bride ever. Once she was ready her brother Rudra came to her room to take her to the wedding venue.
The priest then signalled for the ceremony to begin and on seeing Aahana it seemed as if all eyes would fall out of their sockets for they were all awed on seeing such a gorgeous bride. Once the exchange of garlands had been done all went towards the area where the vows would take place.
The priests from both the sides started the rituals and after a few hours Dev and Aahana were pronounced Husband &Wife.
They were then asked to wait for sometime before the vidaiy( time after wedding when the bride goes to her husband's house to start a new life). Rudra all this while was by his sister's side not willing to her hand.
Soon it was time for Aahana to go to her in law house leaving her house behind and this realization made her cry. She hugged her parents who too were crying hugging their daughter. Rudra too was hysterical seeing his sister go and Dev all this while was trying to make her smile.
Aahana was not willing to leave her parent's hands but knew she has to go with Dev to start their married life, thought it best to make her way towards the car with her parents by her side till her last step and now they were near the car. Sanjeev and Snighda made sure that their daughter was seated comfortably inside the car, kissed her forehead and looked towards Dev who gave them a knowing nod. Thus, with a satisfied smile on their face they signalled the car to leave and Snighda prayed for them.
Aahana and Dev soon reached their house and after doing a ritual entered their room but, Aahana was soon asked to come out for they couldn't be together tonight or let's say till they have offered prayers to the Lord and with a heavy heart Aahana was to sleep in another room accompanied by a female family member and Dev with a male counterpart.
Since, they both were tired from all the ceremonies they soon drifted off to sleep.
