March 20th
6:30 PM onwards
Radhu: Aap log kab aaye? (confident)
Raghav: A while ago! (grinning)
Radhika: Really ma?
Sudha: Sshhh!
A smile escapes Krishan, Dadi notices the pleasant feeling...
Pawan: You guys are in central Delhi, is se zyaada spot on location nahi hogi
Sudha: We like it here.
Pawan: Metro station hai aas paas?
Sudha: Many... AIIMS is the most famous one....
Dadaji: Woh Satinder kidhar hai? Gulmohar?
Krishan: Would you like to sit with us? (signalling Radhika)
Sushil and Dadaji talk about Amitabh Bachhan's house!!
Radhika walks up to Krishan and greets him, thankfully with a namaste..........
Mridula: Did you have to go to work today?
Radhika, And tomorrow and for the next 15 days or so without a break, two UP trips in it..... UP is the fun part... I can feel real results happening.... yahan to bus paperwork...
Sudha squirms, as her daughter wont shut up
Krishan is paying full attention as he pretends to scan his phone.
Raghav is flipping through India Today
Gopi and Ananya place various trays on the dining table.
Rachit and Pawan are talking about Congress and BJP
AND
Radhika wont stop.........
Sudha: Radhu.... (nudging) Radhu!!!
Radha: Haan Ma?
Sudha: They need to be served........
Dadi: Arey nahi, we can go eat....
Mridula: No formalities please
Krishan: So Ms Radhika Tripathi are you really serious about marrying my son?
Radhika quits talking altogether and stares "Umm... Jee? I mean yes Sir"
Raghav lays his magazine down and looks at his future wife
Krishan: You are sure its not one o those...
Mridula is uncomfortable, she adjusts her saree
Pawan is quiet too, they are all watching Radhika........
Krishan: What do you like about him?
Sudha's eyes widen in shock....
Radhika: That he is so quiet, a perfect foil to me.... I cant find enough people to listen to me (giggles and is about to continue)
Krishan: What about you Raghav?
Dadi: Let me guess (sportively)
Dadaji: Arey tu ruk, main guess karanga
Raghav smiles.....
Krishan: Use bolne denge aap
Dadi: Hum to denge but Radhika shaayad nahi... (laughs)
Radhika turns crimson........
Sudha ushers them towards the table
Krishan: So you guys are not messing with us?
Sushil: I hope not Sir! Radhu....
Sushil is visibly gracious and hospitable, with a smile bordering on psycophancy........
Sushil: Hamare ghar mein sabse ziddi to yeh hai
Ananya: Uske baad main! (smiles)
Mridula smiles warmly
Krishan: Shaadi kab karni hai?
Raghav: Jaldi... (firm)
As he stood by Radhika Tripathi a tall stunningly beautiful now middle class (once affluent) ambitious driven NGO worker!
The room broke into a loud laughter, except for the girl's mother her face writ in worry....
loved Krishan and his questions in this update, and also his smile on seeing Radhika!! aur haan, shaadi toh "Jaldi" hi honi chahiye!!
ReplyDeleteHaay haay..
ReplyDeleteSo here too Krishan questioning abt Raghav-Radhi to each other..
But LOL!!! her reply to Krishan..That Raghav is the only one to listen wat she speaks..Super cute..
Hhhhhmmm..Jaldhi karwa dho inn dhonon ki shaadi..
Awaiting the next part..
Hey Aditee,
ReplyDeleteI love this Radhu yaar. She is something i tell u & raghav's "jaldi" took my heart away. this guy will hardly say a word but whtever he says has so much conviction.
loving this tale.

cheers,
priya p
Very good:-) Krishan still hoping that the marriage will not happen..trying all sort of things..that reply is really unwarranted in front of all making everyone uncomfortable..Dadi is such a sweet heart knows very well how to handle the situation..Raghav speaks less but to the point as always..let their marriage happen asap :-)Poor Sudha..she is totally helpless..hmmm..
ReplyDeleteloved the Radhika-Raghav chit chat with Krishan.. good one Aditee..
