"Mihrapur; A place of every emotion. Ruled by Sikha dynasty. Before 25 years ago Devraj Sikha claimed the throne. Knowing Devraj Sikha will give us goosebumps. He is a man of his words. He will go against everything to fight against injustice. He is loved by all." Driver was narrating about Mihrapur. Swara and Sanskar were listening to him quietly.

"Woah, I can't wait to see him." Swara whined like a child.

Sanskaar looked at her amusingly. 'She is behaving like a kid.' Sanskar chuckled.

"Madamji, hold ur horses. You can't get inside the palace easily. You will be tested before entering the palace and..." Driver started to say about the customs.

"Test? I'm the great Swara Bose, the topper of everything. No one can beat me in exams." Swara interpreted him and said.

"Stop it, Dr Bose. Can't you see the driver is saying something? Will please shut your mouth up?" Sanskar said on which Swara made faces and kept quiet.

Sanskar wasn't a person who listen to someone. But here, his dadi's life was at stake. And he was ready to do anything and everything.

"Mihrapur is known for it's culture and traditions. They devote lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. Devraj Sikha values traditions more than anything. I think if you both act like a couple it will be easy to get inside the palace. And..." Said driver with a teasing smile.

But before he could finish it, he was interpreted by a scream.

"What the hell!" Shouted Swara and Sanskar again.

Both of them look at each other and turned their faces as if they were caught by some plague.

"I just said my suggestion. Rest the decision is yours." Said the driver with a grin.

Swasan again looked at each other and turned their faces.

Meanwhile, Swara got a call. She took out the mobile phone. And by seeing the caller id, her face became stern.

"Hello..." Swara mumbled in a faint voice.

"I had called you to inform that I won't be there in the city for few weeks." Swara said with some emotions flashing her face.

"Okay, please take care." Swara said and disconnected the call.

Swara was worried and restless after that call. Sanskar looked on seeing her worried face.

Soon they reached the place. After getting the fair, the taxi driver drove away.

"At last we reached. Wow, wonderful place." Swara chirped. She was enjoying everything.

"Yeah!! But why the hell nobody is seen. Is there any hartal here? " Asked Sanskar, who looked around at the deserted road.

"How could I know? I too have just arrived like you." Replied swara back with sarcasm.

"Hell! It's raining!." Exclaimed Sanskar looking at the sky. It was raining suddenly.

"Come, let's run before it will rain heavily." Swara said and dragged Sanskar with her.

For god's grace, they found a shelter. It was raining heavily, with thunderstorms and lightning too.

"What the hell! Rain? That too in the month of January. It's impossible." Sanskar said thoughtfully.
