Do you need more money? Do you want permission for anything?" Ritwik questions her with concern. Listening all this Ruhani made a bad face. “Don't I have anything else to do besides this, I'm here to discuss something important." She said grumpily. “Oohhh now you also have important things to do." He said making fun of her. “Stop making fun of me, I'm serious." She said with a pout and Ritwik laughed on it. “Ok sorry!! Now tell me your important thing." He said suppressing his laugh. “I have made a decision about my internship." She said confidently. “Oohh that's great, Where do you wanna join?" Ritwik asked happily. “It's a well known hotel in Mumbai and in other cities too, and you also know the owner very well." She said with excitement. “It's really nice, tell me what kind of help you want? Do you want me to talk with that owner?" He said with the same excitement as Ruhani. “Yes I want you to talk with the owner, that's why I'm here." She said with a mischievous glint. “Ok tell me the name of owner, I will talk with him/her." Saying this he takes his phone to call the owner. “Ok listen I'm telling the number, it's 91********." Saying this she giggles. “Oye this my number only, wait you want to join our hotel?" He said happily taking her in side hug. “Yes of course!! Why I'll use my talent for others rather than our business." “Oohh god!! You are so grown up and using your brain in right way, I'm so happy for you." “Thank you Bhai, after all I'm your sister." “That's a great news I should tell everyone." “No!! Not now I will tell everyone tomorrow at breakfast." “As your wish, I'll make internship papers you don't worry." “Ok, I have one request, I don't want any special treatment as CEO's sister.

Then he clears his throat to gain everyone’s attention. “Ritwik tune future k baare me kya socha hai?” Kushan asks suddenly. ( What are you planning for future.) “I’m planning to open our new chain.” Ritwik replies taking a morsel from his plate. “I’m not talking about that, I’m talking about your marriage!” Kushan said. When he said this everyone snapped their heads in his direction. “What about marriage dad?” Ritwik asks confusingly. “When are you planning to marry?” Kushan asks causally. “If you like someone you can tell us, we don’t have any problem.” Kaushal interrupts in between. “If you don’t like any girl, I’ll find one for you.” Asha said with enthusiasm. “If you have someone, you can bring her home.” Roshni said with excitement. “I don’t like anyone. I still haven’t think about that.” Ritwik said not meeting his eyes with anyone. “Now you are 27, it’s high time you should get marry. Jab me teri umaar ka tha na, teri bua meri goud me khel rahi thi.” Dadu said and everyone laughs on his comment. ( When I was in your age, my daughter was playing in my lap) “That’s in your era, Dadu!” Ritwik said chuckling. “Yes, you should get marry fast because me and Ruhani wants a new partner.” Jenny said and high fives with Ruhani. “Abhi tu nau jawan hai, kuch saalo k baad uncle ho jayegaa.” Kaushal said making fun of Ritwik. ( At now you are eligible bachelor but after some years obviously you will be called uncle.) “My friends and seniors are interested in bhai but he is always busy in his business.” Ruhani said making a bad face to Ritwik. “Just because all your friends are so clingy and no one will fit in our family.” Ritwik answers to Ruhani. “Which type of girl will fit in our family?” Manav asks with a mischievous glint. “I want someone who can vibe with our ladies.” Ritwik said gesturing towards Asha, Roshni and Jenny. “OK, I get your point but still try to find one.” Manav said with a smirk. “I’ll try but don't expect much.” Ritwik said assuring everyone. “But do let us know before taking your decision to marry her.” Kushan said. With some chit chat and leg pulling they finished their dinner. Everyone spends time and they all retarded to their respective rooms. Kushan is relieve that Ritwik has not made any commitment without informing the family.

Listening this Palak’s eye twinkles. “By the Mumma which dal are you going to cook.” “Obviously that typical Gujarati sweet dal.“ “But mumma he is Punjabi, I don’t think he will like that sweet dal.” “What do you want I shouldn’t make it sweet?” Smita said turning towards Palak. “You can make it but we should make dal tadka for him.” “No one likes Dal tadka much but we can make it only for him.” Kavya suggests. “That’s good idea, bhabhi.” Palak said.
