The Lal Mahal was hustling and bustling with peoples and guests, people wearing colorful Yellow colored outfits, Traditional Dancers dancing on the tunes of Traditional singers and playing Ghoomar, childrens running here and there playing.

It was Peethi Dastoor of Harshvardhan, the Yuvraj of Shaktigarh. Arundhati was with Rajalakshmi, Parthveer was with Adhvan and Raghav, Saanjh, Aarushi, Diksha were running here and there as always, and Harshada and Chahat were accompanying Tejasswi and Yashraj.

"Arundhati tell me one thing..." Rajalakshmi spoke looking at Saanjh who was instructing staff.

"What?" Arundhati asked turning to Rajalakshmi.

"I heard Saanjh was doing Masters, but in what subject?" Rajalakshmi asked.

"She has done MBA from Harvard University. Business is in her blood, like Vikram. And she also want to start a Clothing Brand and Tourism Company. I even asked her to start her business in London itself, but she denied saying she wants to be back in her roots, her India." Arundhati said with a smile, fondly looking at her daughter.

"Arundhati... What about her marriage? I mean, she is at perfect age." Rajalakshmi asked.

"She has turned down six proposals of marriage Rajal. I have been trying to say that she should marry and settle down, even some families agreed that she can do work after marriage, but she denied, saying she don't want to get married early." Arundhati spoke.

"I don't know who will she marry, but I want her to be happy." She added looking at Saanjh.

"Worry not. She will be like Queen wherever she will go. With your personality and Vikram Bhai sa's valor." Rajalakshmi said keeping a hand at her shoulder and Arundhati smiled.

"Rani sa, the Muhurt of Peethi is slipping. Please call Yuvaraj." Purohit Jii said coming to them.

"Jii." Arundhati said and looked around and spotted Raghav with Parthveer and Adhvan, and also Kedar.

"Kedar! Raghav!! Come here!!" She called out and the two boys jogged towards her.

"Jii Badi Maa sa?" Raghav asked.

"Yes mam?" Kedar asked.

"Please bring Harshvardhan. The muhurtam of Peethi is slipping away." Arundhati told the two.

"Sure mam." Kedar said. "Sure Maa sa." Raghav said and the two went inside.
.

After a while, the two came out with Harshvardhan, who wore a simple Churidar pant, and a white Kurta.

Arundhati made him sit on a silver stool and Purohit jii applied Tilak on his head, as the traditional singers started singing songs and Arundhati applied Haldi on his face.

"Live Long My child." Arundhati said with a smile.

After her, Rajalakshmi, Veervijay, Dharini, Hardik (his maternal uncle), Vrinda (his maternal aunt), and some relatives applied Haldi.

"Everyone done?" Saanjh asked smirking as Tejasswi, who was standing beside her gave a goofy smile.

"Yes. Why?" Arundhati asked and Saanjh and Tejasswi smirked at each other, before pointing above Harshvardhan's head. Harshvardhan looked up only to see a gust of yellow as Aarushi toppled the yellow colored water on him.

"Haldi Mubarak Bhai sa!!" Harshada said as she threw Haldi Powder on him and Saanjh and Tejasswi laughed holding their stomachs.

Harshvardhan shook his head vigorously as he took a handful of Haldi, grabbed Aarushi and smeared it over her face.
