WHAT A HEARTBREAKING EPISODE AFTER A BRILLIANT ONE ON THURSDAY! WE SEEM TO BE MOVING ONE STEP AHEAD AND THREE STEPS BEHIND WITH EVERY EPISODE, PROGRESSION ON SOME FRONTS AND REGRESSION ON OTHERS! THIS APPROACH BY THE CVS DOES NOT AUGUR WELL FOR THE SERIAL, THE FANDOM IS BEING LET DOWN IN ALTERNATE EPISODES JUST WHEN THEY ARE ON A HIGH, THERE IS A CRASH! HOW LONG WILL THIS CONTINUE? ISS TAREEKE KO KYA NAAM DOON?

ANYWAYS, I HAVE DECIDED TO WRITE SOME LETTERS TO THE DENIZENS OF RAIZADA MANSION. HOPE THEY DO READ THEM AND UNDERSTAND WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY!

LETTER NO 1:

DEAR NANIJI,

You being the eldest of the Raizada parivaar, I have decided to write a letter to you before the others. Greetings to you! Naniji, how long do you think Anjali should be mollycoddled and not told the truth? She is only pregnant, for God’s sake, there are many ladies with handicaps who become pregnant and lead normal lives before and after the delivery. She is not suffering from a life-threatening illness! Why is she being given medicines to calm her especially when she has asked you for the truth? Naniji, in spite of you being Manorama’s mother-in-law, how is it that you keep quiet when your daughter-in-law abuses her daughters-in-law by calling them names like Khoon Bhari Taang and Phati Sari?

You are so keen on maintaining traditions and culture and have ticked off Lavanya innumerable times, but you have not practiced what you have preached! Your own daughter-in-law shows crassness and disrespect to the family bahus and you don’t make her stop it! Arnav has already told you the truth about Shyam, why have you not bothered to tell this to Manorama and her spineless son, Akash? Isn’t it high time they get to know the truth?

ANGRILY YOURS,

SAMONA.

LETTER NO 2:

TO MAMIJI,

You have angered me so much that the word DEAR at the beginning of the letter too does not come to me! You were a lovable character in the beginning with your deadpan humor but crassness and loud personality has now won hands down! You know very well how low you have fallen although the family does not know yet! Let me remind you of some of the wrong things you have done! You were the one who cut the Chikankari sari that Khushi had brought to RM by mistake and wanted to show to Naniji! Then you named Khushi as Phati Sari, in my eyes, you are the PHATI SARI! You mixed some nasha into Buaji’s drink during the sangeet so that she would lose and you would win the dance round, in my eyes, you are the LOSER! You spoilt the sweets brought by Khushi and Payal for Anjali’s wedding anniversary party and called the Gupta sisters as cheats, in my eyes, you are the CHEATER!

You have come from a poor background, you seem to have forgotten your own status as a servant of the house who had made the son of the house run circles around your little finger and then made him go against his mother (NANIJI) to marry you! But today, you are accusing Khushi of making Arnav run circles around her little finger? You never wanted Payal to be the bahu of your house, and so you are forcing Akash to hate her and subtly trying out Bubbly like tactics on them! What is the difference between Bubbly and you, then? Bubbly was better, she was a little girl looking out for her share of love in this world; you have already got your share from your husband, why are you poaching on your son’s share of love now?

NEVER YOURS,

SAMONA.

LETTER NO 3:

DEAR MAMAJI,

Where are you? Why have you disappeared? Have you gone on your innumerable business trips again? Or have you left crass Mamiji? Are you living a double life like Shyam used to? Do you have a second family somewhere? Oh, how I would love to see that, so that Mamiji realizes the pain that Khushi must have gone through on knowing that her fiancé cum paying guest, Shyam was leading a happily married life in RM with Anjali?

I do hope you take this letter as an SOS emergency call, and come rushing back to your home, and see the havoc being created by your wife in your son’s life! You had stood by him at the time of his marriage, it is high time you came back and made him realize the grave mistake he is doing by following his mother like Mary’s little lamb! If you delay in coming, rest assured you will come home and see your daughter-in-law gone forever back to her maika.

WAITING FOR YOU,

SAMONA.

HOPE MY READERS LIKE IT, LEAVE COMMENTS PLEASE!

MORE LETTERS HAVE BEEN DELIVERED BY THE POSTMAN:

LETTER NO 4:

TO AKASH,

So, Mama’s boy, how are you? Tiring isn’t it, following Mama all the day like a little lamb? Forgotten that you have got married after so much maska to Payalji? She had refused you thrice, remember? She knew what a spoilt brat you were, she did not want to marry and get that vampish mother-in-law but her sister Khushi and your brother Arnav conspired to fool her! They made her believe that you had committed suicide by jumping off the cliff; I now wish you had actually done so! At least, Payal would have cried for some time and then married a better person with a better mother at home!

How easily you have forgotten your own words that Khushiji did everything with a reason? You were very grateful to her when she was trying to help you to win her sister. You were very obedient and wanted to do things the way Khushiji suggested, if she said four phone calls to her sister and your brother Arnav said three were enough, you were of the opinion that four was right because Khushiji knows best! Now it is Khushi not Khushiji anymore, Why? You keep telling Payal that she is the bahu now, not a sister, so then by your standards, Khushi was a bahu too, your elder brother’s wife, your elder Bhabhi, not your saali, your sister-in-law!! Call her Bhabhiji or Khushiji with respect, got it?

You have assumed that the spineless creature called Shyam was right, and Bhai was right, only Khushi was wrong? And you are angry with Payal for having hidden this matter from you? What about the time when you had hidden the news about her broken marriage from your mother and the entire family? Was that right? You expect her to keep a promise to you after promising that there would be no secrets between you but is she not expected to honor her promise to her sister that she would not tell anything about Shyam so that the daughter of this house would not be upset?

You don’t want to eat the food brought by Payal, because your Di was in such pain, but yes, mamma dear can feed you, your Di is fine now? Your mother has been constantly calling her Khoon Bhari Taang, you cannot stop her! You do not like her taking care of her sister but want her to think of only your sister? The whole family is at the beck and call of your sister, and you grudge Khushi a little bit of Payal’s attention?

What will you go through on the day you hear that Khushi has sacrificed six months of her young life so that you could marry your love? What will you go through when you realize that she and her sister Payal have gone through all the indignities your mother has dished out so that the family honor was not tarnished? You were a gentle soul, a boy who every girl would have liked to take home to meet her parents, what an ogre you have turned out to be! Your brother never disguised his qualities the way you did, Payal has been cheated by your disguise! A wolf in lamb’s clothing! You will go rushing to the nearest cliff to fling yourself off it, when you realize how selfish and pathetic a husband you had become, how rude and selfish a jeejaji you have turned out to be! I will be waiting on that cliff, then, Akash to help you on your way!

NEVER YOURS,

SAMONA.

LETTER NO 5:

DEAR PAYAL,

What has happened to your spirit, Payal? I had seen your fearless spirit in that restaurant when you had ticked off Akash and Arnav when you were refusing to accept Akash’s love! What happened to that lady who refused to consider Akash on the grounds that he was belonging to the rich echelons of society? Why did marriage break down your spirit? Why have you turned to look at the RM people in gratitude for allowing their son to marry you? You turned yourself into a doormat and then don’t expect them to wipe their feet all over you? You are constantly in tears, no coherent thoughts or words come out of you anymore! Disjointed words like Akash, woh……nahi……….main………..!! Why do you not speak up firmly anymore?

Do you realize that the sister-sister bonding you had once shared with your sister Khushi went missing the moment you got married and discovered that Khushi had married the same day? Why Payal, Why? Why did you forget that your sister would never make a mistake so that means she must have been forced into it? Why didn’t you try to make her tell the reason, it is so easy, just give your kasam and everything comes out! Did you bother to check if the Skunk staying in your sasural as the ghar ka damaadji was troubling your sister? Did you try to find out if the marriage with your jethji was working out? She was your younger sister; did you do the duties of an elder sister? How could you get so engrossed in your life that you did not realize that your sister’s husband was in trouble and your sister was worried?

I did not see you standing beside her in her times of need; she has always tried to help you in your life! You, being the elder sister should have gone out to work for the family, you sat home washing clothes and let your younger sister face the big, bad world! You redeemed yourself in my eyes when you could not take Skunky’s rants anymore and gave him a piece of your mind firmly! But why did you falter when talking and explaining to Akash then?

I saw that spirit in you, when you fired ASR after he brought back an unconscious Khushi after the guesthouse incident. Where did that Payal vanish? Bring her back and then fire the hell out of Mamiji your mother-in-law and that pathetic excuse of your husband and then for God’s sake walk out of your sasural with your head held high and holding your sister’s hand! Divorce Akash, you will find a better guy, one who will stand by you and give you the love and respect you deserve! Akash Singh Raizada definitely does not deserve you! The Gupta girls have been given a good upbringing; do not waste it on the likes of Akash!

SADLY YOURS,

SAMONA.

LETTER NO 6:

DEAR NK,

You walked into Shantivan and brought life to that glum house! Your words, your errors and your actions made you the most lovable person to have around! Your friendship with Khushi is commendable! Your banter with Khushi and the increasing closeness made Arnav, sorry Nanav realize that he was in love with her! You stood by her when she came back home as a bride! You did not condemn her like her own family did! You did not know her for long but still you knew that she would not do anything dishonorable to her family, why did her own family not realize it? You were upset when you saw the treatment meted out to her by your family, but sadly you could do nothing about it! You tried to bring laughter to her life as well as the others; she was the only one who appreciated it!

You came back into RM when Khushi needed your help desperately! You realized that she was not the same Khushi anymore, she was worried and anxious, no matter how much she tried to hide it, you still caught on to it, her own sister did not know of it! You made her tell the entire story, and then you set out to help her without asking for any further proofs from her side! You trusted her completely, your faith in her actions and thoughts were complete! You turned out to be a gem of a friend, a savior, who must be cherished at all costs! You risked your life, and you risked being discovered but you continued to stand by Khushi in her quest to find Arnav and to unmask Shyam!

You stood against the whole family and told them the truth behind Shyam’s mask. You have now taken on the role of Arnav’s Love Guru! Arnav, who was a closed book to everyone has now started opening out in front of you! He has started confiding his troubles with Khushi; he takes your advice in trying to manaofy and woo Khushi! You can understand the pain that Khushi is going through and you can also see the agony and depth of Arnav’s love! You have turned out to be a better brother than Akash who grew up with Arnav but does not try to understand him! It is you to who both Arnav and Khushi turn to, in the days to come, when troubles will escalate, your bonding will grow stronger and the Arshi couple will be forever grateful to your friendship and brotherhood! NK, please settle here in India, I will write a letter to Lavanya, she is the right match for you!

There is one thing NK, that I want you to do from now on! Stop being Arnav's Love Guru, turn into his detective and get those evidences which went missing! Prove to the RM people that Khushi was right in her words! Show Anjali and your masi, Mamiji that they are wrong in their actions and words! Show Akash, your rightful cousin that the Bhai whom he trusts would have lost his life if Khushi had not saved him, let Akash realise that the bread winner and the ATM of the house who has been supporting and feeding his family was telling the truth and that his wife Khushiji was the person who had sacrficed a major portion of her life for his sake!

LAUGHINGLY YOURS,

SAMONA.

LETTER NO 8:

DEAR LAKSHMIJI,

Where are you? What has happened to you? The last I saw you, you were in HP’s arms and he was taking you out for a date! But then why did you disappear from sight? Have you shifted bag and baggage to his room from Naniji’s room? She is also not worried, so does that mean that you have her approval for this alliance? Approval for this romance? I need your help, Lakshmiji, your beloved friend Khushi is in trouble!

Do you remember the day when you tried to escape the clutches of that evil guy, Shyam and ran away? Unfortunately you dashed against the mud pot which served as a bank locker for Khushi who had hidden some precious documents inside it! The pot broke and the treasure landed in Skunky’s dirty hands! He blessed you from the bottom of his evil heart, but the entire fandom cursed you that day from the bottom of their angry hearts! You tried to make amends for that mistake by leading your Khushi towards Skunky’s briefcase and knocking the papers from it! Fandom forgave you in an instant! Unfortunately Skunky turned out a Master in Evil Designs and has now taped those papers under the crib of the royal princess-in-womb!

Can you do a favor now and go to the Rani Saheba’s room and nudge those papers out from underneath the crib? The crying doll needs a jolt to her brain and eyes! She is ruining her brother’s romance and so the hard evidence will stop her in her tracks! Do it asap, otherwise Rakshabandhan and Teej will make the Skunk slip into RM and he will slide those papers back into his pocket! Please help soon!

WORRINGLY YOURS,

SAMONA.

AFTERNOON POST WILL BRING THE LETTERS OF ANJALI AND KHUSHI!

EVENING POST WILL BE ASR/ARNAV'S LETTER! PLEASE DO READ! AND COMMENTS ARE HIGHLY APPRECIATED!

AFTERNOON POST- RAIZADA LETTERS ARRIVE!

LETTER NO 9:

DEAR ANJALI,

FIRST OF ALL, STOP CRYING RIGHT NOW! It is getting on my nerves! Anjali, calm down and listen to your well-wisher’s words carefully, I cannot keep writing letters to you every other day!

You are a mature lady, older sister to ASR and Akash, the only daughter of this house, nanand (sister-in-law) to two bhabhis and the only grand-daughter of the matriarch of the house, Devyani Raizada! Is this the way to portray yourself when you have the role model of your Naniji, a dignified lady who carries her dignity like a cloak around herself? Why are you following the foot-steps of your nautanki Mamiji who does not have an iota of a brain or any class of her own?

I used to tell my friends in Myeduniya House that the daughter of Raizada House was the best, the brother-sister bonding was the best and that every home should have a brother like Arnav and a sister like Anjali! But the past few days have made me eat my words; it is causing great distress to see you in this crybaby avatar!

Do you remember your words to your tough brother Arnav that the day he will meet the girl destined for him, he will fall in love? He will then understand the meaning of SAANSE RUK JAYEGI? You had explained it to him in detail saying that if the love of his life would go away from him, he would feel like his breath has stopped! Do you remember all those times when you tried to bring him closer to his wife with the Dilli Mein Bali Hotel drama or even spying on them so that you could see Arnav and Khushi feeding kheer to each other?

Now that your brother has actually fallen in love, you feel that he has changed? Yes, you are right, he definitely has changed, from the ogre who yelled at everyone, who threw glasses of juice down to the floor, from the guy who back answered his Naniji and walked out of the door and from the guy who wanted a live-in relationship, he has turned a perfect gentleman who has married despite his dislike for marriage, he pays due respect to his elders, no tantrums anymore! And you are now unhappy that he has come out of his self imposed Vanvas and is behaving normally! Do you want him to go back to being that ruthless ASR who did not care for anybody?

Do you remember the day when your patidev carried you in his arms in front of the whole khaandaan including Arnav right there in the hall in full public view? How did the others in the family then react, Naniji and Mamiji smiled indulgently at the spectacle! Today, you and your entire khaandaan reacted with intense displeasure on seeing another husband and wife in each other’s arms like it was a crime!! Shyam had carried you when the whole family was present while no one was present nor expected to reach home so early when Arnav decided to grab a few moments of privacy with his wife! You had tears in your eyes on seeing them, it felt like you thought it was a betrayal on the part of Chhote!! You could not bear to see Chhote with his wife, Why? You just walked away to your tower, did you bother to turn around and look at your brother standing there alone and lonely?

Your Naniji thankfully tried to shush Mamiji but she went on like a steam-roller riding roughshod on Arnav, the care-taker and money purse to her family! Was it not your duty to stop her from blowing her top towards Arnav and Khushi? Did you see the chiller killer look in Arnav’s eyes when he looked at Mamiji as she was blasting out Khushi? The free loaders of Shantivan better beware; time is coming for a major ouster from that home! The house belongs to Arnav and Khushi, what if Arnav decides to remind everyone that Khushi was the actual mistress of the home and no one should forget that? Do you remember Chhote’s words to that Muh Dikhayi gathering that Khushi was his wife and should be accorded respect due to her? He was angry with her then, but still spoke to others in anger, can you imagine his anger now when he considers her as his life?

Now I come to the crux of your problems! Your blind faith in your husband, Shyam aka Skunky aka Snakey and many other names the fandom would like to crown him with! How have you managed to close your eyes to so many clues which pointed out to his cheating? The number of times he disappeared before Khushi could make an appearance is uncountable now! The coughing fits, allergy sneezing fits, hiding his face and rushing to his room, the gaayab hona for days, the similar type of engagement ring of Khushi, the similar name of her fiancé cum paying guest, Motilal Jewellers who enquired whether you had liked your ring, how many instances should I recount? Yes, what about Shyam’s phone ringing inside Gupta House when you had stood at their doorway and tried to call him? Why did you not enter immediately and confirm whether it was his phone? Seeing Shyam near the area of Gupta house and he telling you that he was meeting a client? Now that Khushi and NK have accused Shyam of his vile behavior and intentions, you feel that he is still a DEVTA? Have you stopped to think why would NK side with Khushi if he was a brother to you, unless he was convinced that Shyam was at fault?

Do you remember the time when Arnav was not there and Shyam was ever ready to help Khushi? He offered to drop her home, he offered to give her food, he explained that he was searching for his kurta in Saale Saheb’s room, once he was searching for a file too! Then the time when he jumped at the opportunity to have a bath in Saale Saheb’s bathroom too! Did you do the right thing at that time, sending your husband to Khushi’s room when her husband was not present without even informing her? You should have gone with him and waited in the room yourself! Anjali, that day I very nearly strangled you out of anger! Have you forgotten the speed with which he jumped to apply color to Khushi’s face on Holi?

Are you not bothered about your Chhote’s kidnapping? He almost lost his life; it was only due to Khushi that you still have him in front of you! You should be thanking Khushi for saving him, instead you are grudging them their happiness!

Is it like this always, Anjali, if all is well in your world, then all should be well in others’ world and not otherwise? Even after your brother is married, you do not think twice about entering his room without knocking on the door! What is it with the Raizada family’s allergy with locks on their doors? And the servants too are learning from you, entering the chamber of the master and mistress of the house and staring at them unabashedly?

You have always had your way, whether with Chhotte or Shyam! You have been pampered by the entire family keeping in mind your handicap and the troubles you have faced since your parents’ deaths and your own broken wedding, but for how long do you intend to take advantage of their love? You are Arnav’s elder sister, you should have been the shoulder on which he could lean on, instead you have leant on his shoulder so often that you have forgotten that the shoulder rightfully belongs to Khushi now? It is her right to lean on Arnav’s shoulder now! You panicked whenever Chhotte would have the slightest hint of trouble, he learnt to shield you from the reality of life? Is it his mistake if you are blind to your husband’s faults? You accused Arnav of lying to you, name one instance from your life when he has ever lied to you? Did you see the horrified, hurt and pained look in his eyes when you accused him so? Sit down with Arnav and have a heart to heart talk with him, ask all the details of the allegations, you know very well that Chhotte would never side with falsehood, he would never take the wrong decisions and Chhote will hurt himself if he is in the wrong!

What are you waiting for, Rakshabandhan so that you can ask Chhote to get back Shyam to RM as a rakhi gift for her? Are you waiting to tell Chhote that you will not break your fast on Teej till Shyamji himself fed you water to break your fast? Is that your intention, Anjali? I suggest you drop all these ideas and actively pursue the truth so that Shyam is out of your life forever and you live a beautiful life with your child and your brother and his family!

ANGRILY AND HOPEFULLY YOURS,

SAMONA.

LETTER NO 10:

DEAR KHUSHI,

Khushi, Khushi, where do I begin for you? Your troubles started from day one, from the time you decided that you were going to be in the SOCIAL WORKER MODE for all your life! You wanted to be like Atlas carrying the burdens of the world on your tiny shoulders, you wanted to make everyone’s life happy! You have never stopped to think, whether you can do something actually, but rushed headlong into it and then realized that your actions have increased the troubles! Helping others, getting misunderstood and falling into troubles has been the story of your life!

Let us start at the beginning! The river of JOY (KHUSHI) started on her journey towards the OCEAN (ARNAV)!

You had to jump on to your scooter and make your way to Glass Palace to give a lecture to Abhishek, your would-be jeejaji about the pitfalls of the dowry system carrying the papers too? You rushed to save your sister’s marriage but failed in your attempt! You fell into Ocean’s arms, after being in the wrong place at the wrong time! It was Payal who was the elder one in the family but you have the tendency of being the elder in actions, forever wanting to do it all!

After you had to come to Delhi, leaving behind the fashion show fiasco, the video tragedy and your parents’ home, Buaji fell ill and you rushed to get medicines in a new city, taking Happyji’s scooter without permission and dashed against the Ocean again! HOW ABOUT LETTING PAYAL DO SOMETHING ONCE IN A WHILE?

Again, when one of you had to go out to work, why did you, the younger sister decide to hunt for work, while your elder sister stayed home cooking and washing? You took Buaji’s Chikankari saris and landed at Ocean’s home by mistake! Devi Maiyya had decided that it was your future home, so you took your time thinking about the correct foot to enter the home for the first time!

You landed at Arnav’s office and home by a twist of fate, and thus began your nok-jhok with Arnav himself! You never realized why he was so much against you right from the first time, but he is very much aware of the reason why he had always tried to put you down! He had never felt that fatal attraction for any other girl, the way he felt for you when you landed in his arms for the first time, he had felt the desire after looking at your quivering lips, but he had already decided that no girl would be allowed to make a difference to ASR! He set about repelling you, repulsing you but fell deeper and deeper into the quagmire of desire and need! You named him Laad Governor, and started thinking and grumbling about him all the time, not yet aware of the reason why he occupied so much of your thoughts! Unknowingly you had fallen in love with Arnav!

You were forced to help Lavanya to turn her into a Raizada bahu! Took all the insults from Mamiji and the anger from Arnav in your stride just to help the Raizada family!

When you realized that the paying guest cum fiancé Shyam was in fact the husband of Anjaliji, you should have told her or at least one of her brothers but you thought of their great filial love and kept quiet!

You tried to make Shyam leave Anjali so that she would be free from his cheating behavior; this was during the infamous terrace hug! Unfortunately this social work ruined your life, Arnav heard this part of the horrific conversation saying leave Anjali and take a divorce! You tried to save Anjali and killed yourself!

You tried to save your sister’s marriage again and agreed to marry Arnav for six months, I do wish you had told the family about the forced contract marriage, again trying to save the others has always hurt you more!

You sidelined Mamiji during your investigation in the quest for Operation Save Arnav and she started her own detective work! She heard you ask Shyam for a divorce from Anjali (AGAIN!) and look where it has landed you! Mamiji is dead against you now! I have never understood why you did not involve Mamiji in your quest then!

In your zeal to help Anjali to come out of her depression after hearing about Skunky, you went to her room and gave her a lecture on how to care for herself and the coming baby and forget Shyam , Anjali tried to harm the baby and herself! You earned undying hatred from Anjali and Mamiji and anger from Arnav!

You tried to tell Akash that he could take Payal for a vacation when his sister was still going through the denial phase of her husband’s betrayal. Akash got angry at Payal and she in turn was angry at you! Khushi, when will you realize that you cannot solve everyone’s problems??

It is now time to leave RM and go to your home, Khushi! Think carefully why you had gone through that six month contract marriage. You will realize that it was purely to hide the matter of Shyam’s cheating from Anjali, but now since she and the family too knows about it, you don’t have to bother to stay there at all! You do know that Arnav loves you very much, but it is time to make him atone for all the mistakes and wrong-doings that he had done against you! It is time to lead a life away from them, so that they realize how wrong they are! It is time to let Payal handle her marriage herself, stop interfering in her married life now!

YOU HAD SHELTERED YOUR ELDER SISTER, PAYAL FROM THE BIG, BAD WORLD AND RUSHED TO SOLVE HER PROBLEMS, SIMILARLY ARNAV HAS SHELTERED HIS ELDER SISTER, ANJALI FROM THE BIG, BAD WORLD AND RUSHED TO SOLVE HER PROBLEMS! SACH MUCH, RAM MILAYE JODI!

LOVINGLY YOURS,

SAMONA.

ARNAV'S LETTER ON THE WAY! FEMALE FANS HAVE STOPPED THE POSTMAN TO KISS THE LETTER AND SEND THEIR LIPSTICK MARKS ON IT, HENCE IT HAS BEEN DELAYED!

FINALLY THE MUCH AWAITED LETTER OF ALL!

LETTER NO. 11:

DEAREST ARNAV,

Hey, Handsome Hunk, how are you? I know this question right now will get me the answer that all was not well in your world! I had to send this letter to you because i just wanted to say a few things to you!

I knew that your meeting in Agra must have got cancelled the moment you received a call in your car. You tried to get in touch with Akash to go to the satsang! When you could not contact him then you thought of returning home! You suddenly remembered that Khushi was alone at home! You then remembered the deal/sauda finalized earlier with Khushi! Oh, it must have given you the idea that you could make Khushi run into your arms if you could do something which would scare her! The fates too conspired to help you and sent thunder and lightning your way. You knew she was scared of darkness, the Rain and Thunder God played into your hands! That definitely set you thinking! Then it was all easy for you! A phone call and rose petals with leaves were available!

You put up a pathway of a million red rose petals bordered by green leaves looking awesome but in the middle of the drawing room, in full public view? What were you thinking of, that the family will come back late at night and by then, you would clean and sweep them off from the place even without HP’s help? Were you planning to clean with a broom and dustpan in your hands? Or were you expecting Khushi to leave your embrace after admitting that you were her husband and then sweep the floor? You wanted that kiss desperately but right in front of the main door?

I do agree that you are man and wife and do not need to be embarrassed in front of anybody or be answerable to anyone but since you knew the situation at home, you could have avoided it all by arranging it in the privacy of your bedroom or poolside!

What were you thinking, Arnav? I agree that you were bent on winning the challenge of making your wife come rushing towards you and flinging her arms around you but in this way? Did you not stop to think for a moment, that Khushi would be the one in the line of fire?

You had lectured Preeto’s fiancé about making his family give respect to the would-be bahu of the house, how about lecturing yourself and your family to give respect to the Raizada bahus? Why is Mamiji allowed to say Khoon Bhari Taang and Phati Sari with every sentence, if I had been a Raizada bahu, there would have been fireworks the likes of which you have not seen before!

What happened to locks and bolts in your palace? Robbed by Shyam? People walk in and out of your house, in and out of your room, in and out of your poolside, any time and at will! Are there no rules regarding safety and privacy? When there is no one at home, we lock our houses from inside, the people who have gone out ring the bell before opening the door with the key! Why didn’t Khushi lock the main door? How could you enter and spread those petals? How could your entire family barge in when you were on the verge of attaining Heaven? Do think, and put those locks in place!

Yesterday, HP barged in whilst you were romancing with your wife, how come you did not yell at him for having entered without permission and for staring at both of you? HP behaved like he has seen you in compromising situations earlier, he was not embarrassed at all, has this happened earlier with you and Lavanya? Why don’t you ever close the door of your bedroom? Ask Khushi how many times has Skunky barged into your room on some pretext or the other! Do think and put those bolts in place!

You know now how much you love your wife and that you cannot live without her, but are you able to tell that to her in words? She needs to hear it from you! She is insecure with your BHBC (BLOW HOT, BLOW COLD) attitude, so it is difficult for her to understand and accept that you love her! How about a heart to heart talk about everything but without the telepathic pathway? You need to hear all about her fiancé, and the engagement, the blood stain, the man whom Skunky has threatened, the passport and boarding papers and you need to do some detective work and hunt for clues all over again! Stop treating NK like a Love Guru, make him a detective and put him to work!

ASR, you are a shrewd, rich businessman, get some agency to dig up the dirt on Skunky and present it to your Di! She feels that you are lying, go and prove to her that her Devta was lying! Arnav, tell Anjali and the family about the terrace scene, tell her about Shyam’s declaration to you that Rani Saheba was the only obstacle and that he loved only Khushi, and remind her of his words a few days ago when he said that he loved Rani Saheba and would not leave her at any cost! Tell the family about the six months contract marriage, that is the only thing which you have willfully hidden from them, let Akash and Payal understand the reason for the hasty marriage and her sacrifices; let Akash learn to respect her! Let Mamiji hear of Khushi’s sacrifices for Anjali, Akash and your own sake, let her respect Khushi! Be firm and tell her that you will not tolerate those names anymore!

Make your family realize that you owe your life to Khushi. Tell the entire family how she had searched for you, how the goon had hit her on her head and made her unconscious and kidnapped her too, how you both had managed to escape and how you had to hit her on her head and make her unconscious to save her! Tell the entire family including Anjali how Khushi had come searching for you again with NK’s help and saved your life by changing kerosene with water! Let them become aware that you would have otherwise burnt to death! Let them hear how she fell off a cliff and she had almost died, was completely dead by all standards and could be revived only due to your heartbeat! It was a miracle and tell the others that you are grateful for it! Your sister has been used to your 100% attention, go and tell her that now Khushi needs it too! Take Khushi to the doctor and get a complete medical check-up done to rule out future problems!

If you don’t take prompt action now, Arnav don’t be surprised if Shyam gets in contact with Anjali and then turns her mind completely against you!

Then we come to the regret and repentance you have to show Khushi. You had misunderstood and done her a grave misdeed! She was blameless except for the wrong choice of words; you too were not to be blamed because her words were the catalyst for the events to unfold then! It was a natural Misunderstanding! But your grave mistake was putting her out into the poolside on your wedding night! For the rest of the nights too, you compounded your errors! You must make up for all those mistakes, including the hasty wedding and leaving her alone to face the family! You must convince her that you will always stand by her side! You must strive to bring back her lost honor and dignity! She must always feel that she is the priority of your life!

A grand wedding of her dreams with all the images that she had described to her friends during Preeto’s wedding should be recreated for her by you! You must do everything yourself and not get it done, it will be a start but you must also show her how much you adore her, how much you respect her and how much you honor her! I know that the day you know why she had to leave Lucknow, you will shed tears of BLOOD! NO, I am not going to tell you why she left Lucknow, it is her story, go and ask her!

THE MIGHTY ASR HAS TO GO DOWN ON HIS KNEES AND PROPOSE TO HER! That will be a fitting finale to your lovely saga!

I know you both very well, you can never be the lovey-dovey couple, you are like Tom and Jerry, forever sniping at each other, forever trying to dominate the other, she will exasperate you with her social works and you will madden her with your anger! But you will not be able to live without each other either! You will lead a life full of fights, making up, anger, passion, love, friendship, and fun galore! You are crazily in love with her, and she too is crazily in love with you, but she has not yet accepted you as her husband! She only knows that she feels secure in your arms, but you do know that you feel HEAVEN in her arms! She is your Heaven on Earth, Arnav, take care that you attain it!

You will move heaven and earth to give her the stars! You will treat her as a queen, your QUEEN OF HEARTS, and take care of her every need and treat her like a porcelain doll, a fragile doll; you are very possessive of her, so you will not let her out of your sight too!

I hope to see you grow old as handsome as you are now, retain the fabulous good looks which are drool-worthy! And I wish to see you remain like this, same ASR –ARNAV, thoda gussa, thoda pyaar combination, with the arrogant attitude and ruthlessness of ASR intact for the rest of the world but the gentle and soft, tender Arnav for Khushi , only Khushi, tough to the world but gentle to your wife!

ALWAYS ADORINGLY YOURS,

SAMONA.

PS: FANDOM LOVES YOU TOO! THIS P.S. IS DUE TO SPECIAL REQUEST FROM DIEHARD_ROM!

ONE LAST LETTER COMING UP FOR GUPTA HOUSE RESIDENTS, ON REQUEST FROM SS!

THANK YOU FOR READING MY VIEW! LOVE YOU ALL!

THE GUPTAS' LETTER WAS DELIVERED A SHORT WHILE AGO!

LETTER NO.12:-

TO THE GUPTA FAMILY,

Are all of you alive and kicking? I wanted to ask you some pertinent questions if you are alive of course!

Have you forgotten that you have married off two daughters to the Raizada household? Have you forgotten that within that house lives the Snake who had betrayed you and your daughter Khushi? Have you forgotten the fact that Khushi appeared unhappy whenever you saw her but she covered it up brilliantly? Have you not realized yet that something must be definitely wrong there? Did you ever bother to find out if Payal’s mother-in-law has accepted her finally?

It is high time you had a heart to heart talk with the girls, make them tell you the truth. Your children are suffering there, go and get them! You have given them the perfect upbringing so they are tolerating everything being dished out to him but for how long? Get them back, make them independent in their lives and let them live a life of dignity! WHEN IS BABUJI GOING TO GET CURED COMPLETELY?

In order to get Payal married to Akash, you have destroyed Khushi’s life! Buaji and Garimaji, you are solely to blame for this turn of events! If you, as the elders of your family, had revealed the truth in time to the elders of that family, it would not had such disastrous consequences as now! But at that time, Garima was more concerned about her daughter Payal’s wedding, Khushi was sacrificed!

I lay the blame at your door! I have nothing more to say to you, it is high time you faced the consequences of hiding the truth!

VERY VERY ANGRILY,

SAMONA.
