pyar ki indian kahani

part 3

The next day in the morning, as Anirudh had thought, his health had deteriorated. And he was cursing himself as to why he had given this challenge. After taking medicine, his health had recovered by afternoon.

He went in front of the mirror and started getting ready. He took out a rubber face mask and put it on his face. Then got ready and went out.

On this side, preparations were being made for the wedding at Sanjana's house. Now there was a lot of time left. A day later the wedding rituals were about to begin. Sanjana's mother, Mohit and Sanjana's father were sitting in the hole making a list of guests.

Then the doorbell rang.

"I see.." Mohit said and he left after opening the door.

When he opened the door, he was happy to see the man standing in front of him.

"You Mr. Oberoi?"

"Yes, I have come for some work.." Anirudh said.

"Come on..." Mohit brought them inside.

Rajesh ji and Ragini ji were looking at Anirudh and were wondering who is he?

Then Mohit said..

Papa .. This is Anirudh Obroy the Honor of Obroy Pharma Industry .. We had a meeting with him a week back… He..”

Hearing this, Rajeshji and Raginiji stood up.

“It is a great pleasure for us that you yourself have come to our house..” Rajesh ji said with folded hands.

"Hey Mr. Singhania, what are you doing.. you are older than me.."

"Come don't sit..." Mohit said.

" Mohit, I have come here to tell you that after our meeting, we have decided that we want to give the contract of our new company which is going to be set up in Delhi to your Singhania Construction Company."

Both Mohit and Rajesh ji became happy after hearing this from Anirudh.

"Thank you Mr. Aubrey.. thank you so much.." Mohit said happily.

"I will bring something sweet now.." Ragini ji said and she also went to the kitchen feeling happy.

"Thank you very much Mr. Aubrey.." Rajeshji said folding his hands again.

Thank you there is no need.. all this is the hard work of you people.. by the way it was not in the meeting but Akhil uncle was saying that seeing the presentation you had given no one could refuse you ..” Mohit became even more happy after listening to Anirudh.

"That presentation was prepared by my sister.. She is very talented.." Mohit was feeling very proud of Sanjana.

" Oh that's great... then I will have to meet your talented sister.."

"Yes, she must be coming now.." Rajeshji said and looked up to see why Sanjana had not come down yet.

By the way, I myself came here just to see your smile.." Anirudh said with a smile.

"You have done this very well.. That's why we got a chance to take care of you." Rajesh ji said with a smile.

"Come on, listen.. then," Ragini ji said calling out from the kitchen.

"I came in just a minute.." Rajesh ji said and he started going towards the kitchen.

" Mohit sir, some parcel has come, asking for your sign.." Raju said coming to Mohit.

" I am sorry.. Mr. Aubroy came in just five minutes.. Really sorry.. Urgent hai.."

"No problem.. Mohit.. There is nothing to say sorry about.. I am fine here. You go comfortably.." Anirudh said with a smile.

As soon as Mohit left, Anirudh started walking here and there.. and was looking up after a while..

That's why Sanjana was coming down the stairs... Her attention was down and down.. Anirudh was standing behind the stairs in a mood. Sanjana didn't see him and she bumped into him... As she was about to fall, Anirudh caught her..

Both were looking at each other's face. As soon as Sanjana realized that Anirudh was holding her, she moved away a bit.

"You here...?" Sanjana could not believe her eyes.

"Yes I am here.." Anirudh said smiling.

"By the way, you are fine.. are you not hurt..? Does anyone come down the stairs like this? Had she fallen..?" Sanjana was looking at Anirudh staring at him.

Anirudh became silent on seeing this.

"I am absolutely fine.. Thank you very much.. for saving me from falling.." Sanjana said smiling.

"But how are you here at my house?" Sanjana still could not understand anything.

"He came for some work..to meet Mr. Singhania and Mohit.."

"Oh..now I understood..we had a meeting with your company..now I remembered.."

"Ha..and you have got that contract..congratulations.."

"Are you telling the truth..?" Sanjana said happily.

" Any doubt..? "

"Thank you.. brother must be very happy..."

By the way, you made a wonderful presentation.

" how do you know ? "

Mohit was telling..

"Oh.." said Sanjana.

"By the way, have you done any course for this?"

"No he..Anirudh had taught me all this"

" Nice.."

"Hey! You guys already know each other?" Mohit asked coming there.

"Ha..." they both said together.

"Yes, I had met him at the temple.." Sanjana said handling the matter.

"Oh..this is a very good thing.."

"Come.. let's sit and talk." Mohit said and all three of them sat and started talking for a while.

"Let me go now.." Anirudh said standing up.

That's why Ragini ji and Rajesh ji came there..

"Hey how like this..? We will not let you go without having food.." Rajesh ji said coming to Anirudh.

"Sorry Mr. Singhania.. not today.. will come again sometime.."

"Yes Anirudh ji please stop, we will like it" This time Ragini ji said

"No, he is not feeling well today, that's why.." As soon as he said this, Anirudh realized what he had said.

He immediately looked at Sanjana who understood his point and was laughing with her hands over her mouth.

Seeing this, Anirudh's face turned red with shame.

"Yes mummy, his health is not good, so don't insist on him much.." Sanjana said while looking at Anirudh.

"Okay.. but next time you have to come specially" Rajesh ji said.

"Sure.. I'll go now.."

"Sure.. I'll go now.."

"Bye" Anirudh said while looking at Sanjana.

Sanjana just smiled.

After Anirudh's departure, Sanjana was about to leave when Mohit said..

"Papa, I think we should also invite her to Sanju's wedding."

"Yes, I was about to say the same," Rajesh ji said.

Sanjana again left from there after hearing this.

As soon as he reached home, Anirudh went straight to someone who had been waiting for him for a long time.

Anirudh hugged him as soon as he reached near him.

"It's good that you came back soon.. Nothing was feeling good here without you."

"Hey, first remove this mask.. I want my one Anirudh.." he said.

Anirudh removes his face mask.

"You rascal, wearing this mask for so many days, you have become fairer than before.." he said laughing.

"You are getting the joke.. I am upset with all this here.." Anirudh was a bit sad.

"No problem friend, it's just a matter of few days, then see everything will be fine.." He said..

" Yes, I also want that my real identity should come in front of everyone soon...."

The next morning there was happiness everywhere in Sanjana's house.

"Brother, come quickly, we are getting late.." Sanjana was being spoken while walking here and there in the hole.

"I am coming Sanju.. it is still late for him to come" Mohit said coming downstairs.

"How long does it take Mohit to get ready, since how long has she been waiting for you?" Ragini ji also spoke.

"Ha Ma, why are you guys overreacting so much?" Mohit was upset after listening to these people.

"Are you going to overreact, won't you both mother and daughter's sister who is coming?" Rajesh ji started laughing.

"Come on now brother.. will you keep talking while standing here?" Sanjana started pulling Mohit away.

"What are you doing.. I am coming.. Don't pull me like this"

Then both of them left for the airport in the car.

Sanjana started looking for Kinjal as soon as she went to the airport.

As soon as Sanjana saw Kinjal and her aunt Reema coming, she ran towards them.

"Sanju Sambhalkar.." Mohit shouted loudly seeing Sanjana running away.

Kinjal also ran towards Sanju seeing him.

Both the sisters hugged each other.

"Missed you a lot.." Saying this, Sanjana's eyes filled with tears..

′′ I also missed you a lot ′′ Both the sisters got emotional after meeting after so many days.

"Hey, I am also here..." Reema ji said coming there.

"Maasi..." Saying this, Sanjana Reema hugged her aunt and took her blessings by touching her feet.

"How's my baby girl?"

"Great maasi.. how are you.."

"I'm fine too.."

"Hey someone look here too.." Mohit said making a face..

“Brother….” Seeing Mohit, Kinjal hugged her..

"How is my doll..?"

"Great maasi.. how are you.."

"I'm fine too.."

"Hey someone look here too.." Mohit said making a face..

“Brother….” Seeing Mohit, Kinjal hugged her..

"How is my doll..?"

"I am absolutely fine brother.. but how did you become so thin.. Must be this Sanju is not feeding you properly.." Kinjal's fun had started.

"Good boy.. come here.. I will show you again.." Sanjana said showing false anger.

"Shanti girl.. stop this gimmick.. you both have become not thin..understood" Mohit slapped both of them on the head.

"Ouch.. Bhaiya..." both of them said together, spoiling their faces.

Then all three started laughing.

"How are you masi..?" Mohit said touching Reema masi's feet.

"I am very happy to see my children so happy.." Saying Reema ji, she looked at her three children.

"Will you do all these things? Don't want to go home..?" Mohit said seeing both the sisters having fun with each other.

"Hey let's go.."

Then everyone sat in the car and came home.

Ragini ji was also very happy to meet Reema ji. Everyone was sitting in the hole and talking.

But most of all Mohit was happy. Seeing both his sisters happy together, tears of happiness came out of his eyes.

" Come on Kinju come with me.. I will show you something.." Sanjana said while pulling Kinjal.

"Ha ha come on.."

Sanjana came to the room and took out her wedding dress from the cupboard and started showing it to Kinjal.

′′ Look Keenju.. how beautiful isn't it.. have taken a pink color pair.. exactly as Anirudh wanted.. ′′ There were tears of happiness on Sanjana's face.

Kinjal was just looking at him.

"Are you missing Anirudh?" Kinjal said keeping her hand on Sanjana's shoulder.

On hearing this, Sanjana started crying hugging him.

Kinjal was patting his head. She knew her sister very well. Both the sisters were firm friends since childhood. Both used to understand each other's mind in a jiffy.

"Just do it Sanju.. what had to happen happened.." Kinjal said wiping Sanjana's tears.

Sanjana had also become silent now.

"Sanju, you have taken the decision of marriage after careful consideration, haven't you?"

"I don't know this, but now I will do whatever my parents and brothers want."

"Look Sanju, this is the question of your whole life.. Relationships are connected with the mind, they are connected with love, not by force.."

"No, they didn't force me that I have taken this decision with me and Hardev ji is a good person, I talked to him about this"

"So what did he say?"

"He said that he has no problem with it.. He was saying that everything will be fine with time.."

"Okay.. But listen, if you feel even a little bit that you are not happy with this relationship, then tell me, I am always with you."

Saying "Okay" Sanjana smiled and hugged Kinjal again.

"This Anirudh's photo showed me how he looked like? If he ever comes in front of me, I can tell him well that he did not do good by hurting my sister's heart.. I will not leave him.." Kinjal gets very angry. Had been.

Sanjana did not say anything after hearing this.

"Hey show photo.."

"I had sent you many of our photos"

"When? I haven't seen"

"Hey when I told you about me and Anirudh"

"Ha seems to have been deleted by mistake.. I didn't even download"

"Okay, I'll show you now."

"Sanju...Kinjal, come down quickly, the food is ready.." Ragini ji said in a voice.

"Come on, I'll see you later, I'm really hungry right now."

"Okay let's go" said Kinjal and both the sisters went downstairs to have food. ,

On this side the servant came to Anirudh in Oberoi house..

"Sir here is a parcel for you"

"Okay bring it" said Anirudh taking the parcel.

When he opened the box, there were sweets and a card in it.

His face paled on seeing the card.

That card was for Sanjana's marriage.

Then Mohit's call came on her phone.

" Hello"

"Yes Mr. Oberoi I am speaking Mohit.."

"Yes Mohit speak"

"I have sent you the invitation card for Sanjana's wedding.. We should have come there ourselves but could not come because of the preparations for the wedding."

" No problem "

"After three days there is haldi and sangeet and next day the wedding will surely come"

"Okay, I'll come."

"Yes thank you" Mohit said and cut the call.

"I have only three days to complete my work" said Anirudh taking a deep breath.

"Yes and to tell them that Jagdish Tripathi and his son are not fit for their relationship" said someone from behind putting a hand on Anirudh's shoulder.

"Yes Saurabh, I will get both those father and son punished for what they did.. They didn't correct me and Sanjana by separating them.." Anirudh's eyes were red with anger.

"Ha Anirudh .. he thinks he has won the game created by him but when the love is true then it is not only difficult but impossible to separate him.."

" But what will happen when Saurabh comes to know that Anirudh Oberoi is Anirudh Sinha and I was keeping her in a trap till now..? Will she forgive me..? " The fear of losing Sanjana is clear on Anirudh's face. Was visible

"Ha.. She must be angry with you but she doesn't know what happened to you that day? And why were you hiding your real identity? She will definitely forgive you when the truth comes out in front of her."

"Ha yaar, I wish everything goes well.. Before Sanjana gets to know about this in a wrong way, I myself will tell everything to her and also apologize to her.."

"You are right Anirudh.. You should go and tell him this thing soon." Saurabh also said while agreeing with Anirudh.

“I will tell her the truth even before Sanjana's haldi and sangeet rituals begin. Will get.." Anirudh stood up and clenched his fist angrily.

" Dont worry Anirudh we will not let anything like this happen.. I am with you na.." Saurabh said consoling Anirudh.

Yes and we too" said Saurabh's parents Akhil Malhotra and Anuradha Malhotra coming from behind.

Seeing all of them giving their support like this, Anirudh's eyes were filled with tears.

"Thank you uncle aunty.." Anirudh hugged both of them together.

"My child, don't worry, God will fix everything." Anuradha ji said while patting Anirudh's head.

"Yes son.. your aunt is saying absolutely right.. you just focus on your plan" Akhil ji also said keeping his hand on Anirudh's head.

"Here you go, in this emotion drama, these people have forgotten this son.." Saurabh had made a face.

"Chal tu bhi aaja" Anirudh also hugged Saurabh.

The next day, early in the morning, Kinjal got ready and was going out somewhere.

"Kinjal, are you going out somewhere?" Sanjana asked when she saw Kinjal going out.

Kinjal stopped on hearing this and came back to him in mood.

" Yes, she is my old friend, am going to meet her.. She was doing a lot of i****t, so I thought I will go to meet her once.. "

"Ok ok but come back soon..and take care of yourself..and go by car only"

"Ha ha .. I am going by car only .. can I go now ..? "

"Ha ja..." said Sanjana and she also got busy in her work.

Kinjal was going in the car when she saw someone in the park.

"Brother please stop the car here..."

The driver stopped the car near the park.

Kinjal came out of the car and went inside the park. Seeing the two boys standing in front of her, a big smile appeared on her face.

She started going to both of them.

When both of them looked at the smiling Kinjal from the front, both of them spoke in unison.."Kinjal....!"

"Hi... Saurabh... Hi Anirudh...!" Kinjal said coming near both of them.

What a present surprise... Ha.. Kinjal.. We didn't even know you were in Delhi" Saurabh said shaking hands.

"Nice to meet you.." Anirudh also said smiling.

"Ha.. she just came back from Canada yesterday.. for my sister's wedding.."

"Oh nice... how are you.. bubbly..?" Saurabh remembered Kinjal's college nick name.

"O.... still you will call me bubbly.. lollipop..." Kinjal also said that she was less in this matter, she said pulling Saurabh's ears.

“Aa… what are you doing Babli… it is hurting”

"You both started this college melodrama again..." Kinjal left Saurabh's ear after listening to Anirudh.

"After so many days we have met... it is bound to happen.. isn't it Babli..." Saurabh said pulling Kinjal's cheek..

"Oh.. leave it.. this habit of yours has not gone yet, has it?" Kinjal held her cheeks.. which had turned red.

"This rascal doesn't give up his habit in such a straight way.. Why be.."

′′ Yes then.. ′′ Saurabh spoke looking at Anirudh with a slant.

"And tell me how are you both..?"

"Both of us are absolutely fine.. you tell me what are you doing nowadays.." Saurabh said.

"I have just finished my PhD and have come to settle in India..."

"Oh wow this is a very good thing" Anirudh was also happy for his friend..

"By the way, what were the days of our college.. how much fun we all used to have.. and all three of you were the stars of the entire college.. Anirudh, Saurabh and that stubborn Karan... Bhai Yarana ho to aisa..." Kinjal started laughing as soon as she spoke this... but Anirudh and Saurabh's mouths dropped on hearing this..

Kinjal also realized what she had said just now.

"I'm sorry Anirudh.. don't know how this thing came out of my mouth"

"It's ok.. Kinjal.. there is no fault of yours in that.. woh din ki yaade hi kuch ac thi..."

"By the way, looking at Oberoi Pharma Company, it seems that both of you are not going to let the turn of pharmacists like us come.." On hearing this, Anirudh and Saurabh started smiling at each other.

"Really.. I feel very proud seeing the success of both of you.. I always keep telling my friends that this is my friends' company"

"Thank you.. Kinjal..." they both spoke together.

"Let's go now, I have to go somewhere else.. now we will keep meeting..."

"Yes it is.. meeting you refreshed the college days..." Anirudh's face lit up.

"By the way, Babli, you still do gimmicks and fun like before, that you have reduced all that." Saurabh understood the mischief.

"What do you mean..?" Kinjal said showing her eyes..

"I mean, with old age, all this reduces, doesn't it, so..."

"Do you think I look old..?"

"Now this pharma and PhD.. after doing all this you must have become thirty-five or forty.." Saurabh laughed while speaking.

“Saurabh… I will not leave you.” Kinjal shouted angrily and ran after Saurabh.

"Hey sorry... I was just joking.." Saurabh also ran to save himself while speaking.

"This Saurabh himself keeps on getting an ax hit on his leg.." Anirudh was also laughing seeing both of them..

Both got tired of running like this..and stopped at one place.

"Come on, I have forgiven you..." Kinjal gasped.

"Thank God...you have saved me from this witch." Saurabh was shocked because he thought that today he would surely be a victim of Kinjal's nails.

"Come on, what has happened to both of you now?" Anirudh said coming there.

"Ha let's go... bye.. see you later"

"Bye... take care of yourself.." said Anirudh and Saurabh and then Kinjal left from there...

"This Kinjal hasn't changed at all... has it?" Saurabh said to Anirudh seeing Kinjal leaving.

"Yes she is... bubbly as before.. and always smiling and laughing.. both of you made me remember all those college fun today" Anirudh was also happy.

" Yes, I used to tease her like this and she used to run after me... and Karan did not like her antics at all.. how he used to get irritated and angry all the time."

"Yes, that's why Kinjal calls him Akdu." Both of them started laughing on this matter..but suddenly sadness appeared on both of their faces..

" I wish Karan could have understood this friendship.. but he broke our biggest thread which kept our friendship together.. He didn't trust us at all.." Saurabh got emotional while speaking. .

"Leave this matter, now is not the time to talk about all these useless things.. He is no longer our friend. You understand.. Come on"

Saying this, Anirudh started leaving. Saurabh also started following him.

"I know what you are going through Anirudh.. Karan's accusations and his words must be hurting your heart so much.. Oh God! How long my brother will bear all this, never shows.. Please help him..return his love to him please." Saurabh was walking behind Anirudh speaking in his mind.

Kinjal came home at two in the afternoon. Everyone was sitting in the hole watching his path.

Sanjana was not at ease at all. She had made so many calls to Kinjal but her phone was switched off.

Seeing Kinjal coming in, Sanjana stood up and went to her.

"How long did it take.. Why is your phone switched off.. Are you okay...?"

Sanjana had showered questions.

“Sanju relax…I am absolutely fine” Kinjal said cutting off Sanjana.

"Then why was your call switched off?"

It was just the battery down that's why"

"We were already scared, how did it take you so long?"

"When she was leaving, I had met my college friends, so I got a little late for talking to them, then Janvi was not allowing me to come."

"Ok, let's all eat now, I am not going to stop anymore.. I am very hungry"

Mohit stood up and said.

"Haven't you guys eaten your food yet?" Kinjal was surprised.

"How can we eat without you..! We know that you don't eat outside at anyone's house, that's why we were waiting for you.

" Oh .. Thank you .. Come on I am hungry too "

Then everyone had food together.

After some time Kinjal went to Sanjana's room.

"Okay listen..."

"Ha bol na..." Sanjana replied while reading the book.

"Hey leave this first and listen to me..." Kinjal took Sanjana's book from her..

"Ha .. speak what's the matter.."

"Can I invite my two friends to your wedding?"

"This is also something to ask..! Whoever you want to call, you can call me, I will not deny you a little..." Sanjana said lovingly touching Kinjal's cheeks.

"Thank you... wouldn't you like to know who I'm going to invite?"

"Ha .. definitely want to know .. who is she?"

"Honor of Anirudh Oberoi Pharma Co...." Kinjal said excitedly.

"What?" Sanjana was surprised to hear this.

Can't believe it..?

"So Anirudh is your friend?"

"Yes, he is my college friend, we all were in the same pharma college in Canada and in the same class..."

"Oh..it is so..then you don't need to invite them.."

"Why? What happened? Why are you saying that?"

"Hey, first listen to me.. we have already sent them the invitation."

"So you guys already know him?"

"Ha .. We had met 2-3 times and he also came to our house. Our company has got the task of setting up his new company.."

"What are you talking about!" Kinjal was even more happy to hear this.

"Kinjal, you were talking about two friends, so who else..?"

"The other lollipop.."

"What...? Lollipop? Who is that?"

Then Kinjal's phone rang.

"Ha a minute.. I will come now.."

Kinjal said and she went outside the room to talk on the phone.

"Kinjal bhi nahi kaise kaise kaise name .. Lollipop ..! This too has a name.." Sanjana also started smiling..

On this side, Kinjal was talking to one of her friends.

"Okay listen Shazia... Today I got Anirudh and Saurabh..."

"Oh wow this is a very good thing.. how are both handsome?"

"Both are very well..not even a little changed..both.."

"Is it still hot?"

"Ha .. now he has become even hotter but don't dream too much .. he is not of your level, understood!"

"Ha ha don't lecture too much.. tu tell me where is your wala?"

"What does my one mean..! There is no one like that, understood.."

"You can lie to me but you can't hide it."

"No..no, nothing like that.."

"You are avoiding talking about Karan so that you don't let your feelings come in front of anyone"

"Dude please don't start back.. even when we were in college he had a girlfriend and now his wife will also be with him.. I didn't have a place in his life even then and will never have.. That's why She thought of reminding me about him again and again.."

Kinjal spoke angrily and disconnected the call.. but Sanjana had overheard everything behind.
