A LOVE STORY OR NOT PART 2

#42

The sangeet was not over yet. Shehnaaz had a beautiful voice so how can her own sangeet be over, until she sings.

"Sanu gaana Gaa!"

"Han Sana suna de!"

Everybody nudged her but she was still hesitant and then Sidharth murmured, "Gaa de na!".

He said it so so sweetly that Shehnaaz had to  look at him. She smiled softly at him as he gave her an encouraging smile.

"Oh, ab Sidharth ne bola hai toh Sana mana
kaise karegi?", The sisters teased and Shehnaaz looked down with a flushed face.

Kushal dragged her and Sidharth on the stage and placed an anchor Mike inside her ear and in front of her mouth.

"Bta kaunsa gaayegi?", Kushal asked her.

Shehnaaz looked at Sidharth, smiled and then looked at Kushal, mumbling the songs name in his ear.

Kushal went towards the person who was controlling music and asked him to play an instrumental version of the song that Shehnaaz wanted to sing.

So, it was going to be a full blown performance with proper music and a beautiful beautiful singer.

Sidharth looked at her confusedly and then he understood that she definitely had found the perfect song, the way she smiled.

Shehnaaz bit her lower lip and looked lovingly at Sidharth as the music began.

She waited a few seconds before bringing the mike near her ear and adjusted it in front of her mouth properly, indicating that she was about to sing.

Tu banja gali Benaras ki
Main shaam talak bhatku tujhme

Tu banja gali Benaras ki
Main shaam talak bhatku tujhme

Shehnaaz started singing as she swirled in front of Sidharth, dancing to the beats of the song.

She looked at Sidharth who was staring at her like a goofy lovestruck fool.

Shehnaaz gestured her hands as she moved her hands on each and every word of the song she sang.

She swirled all around him in a circular manner and came in front of him again.

Seeing his expressions, she herself wanted to just stop singing and keep on looking at him without any  disturbance.

Teri baatein chatpat chaat si hain
Teri aankhen Ganga-ghaat si hain

When she sang this line, she made cute faces, acting as if she just had something sour like paani puri.

When she sang about his eyes, she took steps closer to him and tip toed to level herself in front of his face.

She blinked her eyes several times as she talked about his eyes, staring intently at them.

His eyes really were beautiful, just like a river. They spoke volumes and flew just like water which can not be contained.

She could see everything that resides in his heart, in his eyes.

His eyes showed a reflection of his heart and his love for her, the same way a river shows your reflection when you stand near it.

His eyes only  had one reflection, only one girl, Shehnaaz. She could see nothing else in there except love which was meant for her.

Main ghaat kinare so jaaun…
Phir subha subha jaagun tujhme
Tu banja gali Benaras ki
Main shaam talak bhatku tujhme
