Close Relationships – ShiVi, SidAshi, RoNakshi, ArjAkshmi SS Part 6 – Latest Updates [vid_date]

When Rani opened the door she was shocked to see her husband Shekar.

Rani got angry:Why have you come here?

Shekar:You were not responding to my phone calls or letters.So I came here.

Rani:Why suddenly you remembered me?When I was there with you,you were a spineless husband who supported only the mother.

Shekar:I remember you always.

He opened his purse and showed her their family photograph.

Shekar:See…I always look at our family photograph.I missed you every second.That’s why I sent you letters and called you over the phone.

Rani:I attend our son’s phone calls.He is living happily in the Bangalore hostel.He is studying well also.I am happy with that.But your phone calls remind me of my toxic sasural.

Shekar:You are calling your sasural toxic because of my mother.Right?She has gone for pilgrimage.She is not there at home.So can’t you come back home?

Rani was surprised that her mother in law is not there at home.

Rani:But she will come back after some months.Right?

Shekar:But till then you can stay happily in our house.Right?

Rani put an attitude and replied:I have to think.

Other family members arrived there.

Naren:Why do you have to think so much Rani?Till now we kept you here as you said that your husband does’nt care for you.But he himself came here to call you back.So you have to go.

Rani was stunned:Papa!

Veena:Your father is right Rani.You have to give a chance to your marriage.

Rohit:I also feel so Rani di.

Naren:After marriage,a woman’s home is her sasural.So you better go back to your sasural Rani.

Shekar smiled.Rani became upset.

Rani:But papa..

Naren:Don’t argue with me.Do what I say.After marriage a woman’s duty is look after your husband and live serving him.You do that Rani.Pack your bag now.

The disappointed Rani packed her luggage.

She stared at Sonakshi and said:Now you may be happy that I am leaving.Right?

Sonakshi:I did not think that way Rani di.Just be happy with your husband.

Rani turned off her face in anger and and left with Shekar.

Pooja told Sonakshi:I did not like Naren uncle saying that after marriage,a woman’s life is only about sasural.But still I am happy with his decision to send Rani aunty back to her sasural.Because she was a nuisance here.She was unbearable.So I feel relieved after she went.

Sonakshi and Raavi smiled.

Pooja:Guess what?I only contacted Shekar uncle to take back Rani aunty.Since he loves her,immediately he agreed.

Sonakshi and Raavi were surprised.

Sonakshi:You only called Shekar jeejaji here?

Pooja:Yes.

Sonakshi:You are smarter than I expected.

Pooja smiled.

Raavi:Thank you Pooja.Rani bua was taunting Maa very much.I am glad that she is out.

The trio smiled.

Pulkit came home for vacation.Everyone hugged him happily.Pulkit caressed Raavi’s face and asked:How are you Raavi?

Raavi:You came home.How can I not be happy?

Pulkit smiled.

Pooja was excited to see Pulkit:Hi Pulkit!

Pulkit looked at Pooja.

Rohit:Pooja,here girls do not mingle with boys in a friendly manner.It would be better if you keep up that manner.

Pooja,Raavi,Sonakshi and Pulkit became dull.

Sonakshi thought:Rohit does’nt know that Pooja and Pulkit are cousins.They are like siblings.There is nothing wrong in mingling with each other.Can’t a brother and sister talk to each other?

After Naren,Veena and Rohit went inside Pulkit smiled at Pooja.

Pulkit:I know that you are my cousin sister Pooja.Raavi and Maa told me everything on the phone.

Pooja smiled happily.

Pulkit:Sorry for not talking to you properly in front of them.Our family is so narrow minded that they don’t encourage the friendship between boys and girls.They don’t know that we are brother and sister.If I talk to you in front of them,they will get angry.

Pooja:I understand bro.In their absense we can enjoy a lot till you return after the vacation.

Pulkit smiled:Yes.Papa,dadaji and dadimaa are going for a function tomorrow.

Pooja:Cool.We will get a day to enjoy.

They smiled.

Rohit and parents  his went out.

Pooja:We won’t get this chance again and again.We should make use of this opportunity and enjoy.

Sonakshi,Raavi and Pulkit smiled.

Pooja forced Sonakshi and Raavi to wear modern dresses.They wore modern dresses shyly.

They had a lot of fun.

Pooja was surprised to see Raavi painting.

Pooja:Raavi,you paint so well.I never thought that you had this talent.Then why are you not taking part in the upcoming painting exhibition in college?If maximum people vote for your painting,you will win a prize.Right?

Raavi:Papa won’t allow it.He says that I should be only studying in college.He says that girls taking part in competitions make them over smart.

Pooja was shocked.

Pooja:What kind of attitude is this?Taking part in extra curricular activities is bad for girls?Pathetic!

Pooja went near Rohit.

Pooja:Uncle,can I request you for something?

Rohit:Yes..Say.

Pooja:Raavi is a very good painter.Can you please allow her to exhibit her painting at the college fest.

Rohit:Is this your request?Raavi sent you here?

Pooja:Do you think that Raavi will send me here for it?She is scared of you.She can never think of going against your wish.But seeing her talent and suppressed dream,I felt like requesting you.

Rohit:No need of requesting me on her behalf.I don’t like it.Over exposure will ruin girls.

Pooja became upset.Veena and Sonakshi came there hearing it.

Pooja:Veena aunty..you please make Rohit uncle understand it.

Veena:Pooja..this is our family matter.You please don’t interfere.

Pooja became sad.

She thought:This is my family too.Raavi is my sister.

Pooja:Aunty…you are a woman.You love Raavi.Right?You want her to be happy.Right?You can understand her suppressed dream of becoming a popular painting artist.Please support her.

Veena became dull.

Pooja whispered to Veena:I know that being a woman,you support Raavi internally.But you are scared of Naren uncle.

Veena looked at Pooja emotionally.

Pooja:After marriage,Raavi will live as a house wife doing only household duties.Only before marriage,she can fulfill her dreams.Please let her enjoy till her marriage.

Sonakshi who heard this thought:Before marriage,however strict papa was,I could dance.But my daughter Raavi is not even allowed to do that before her marriage.How pathetic her fate is!

Veena:Rohit..I think Pooja is right.Please allow it.

Sonakshi:Rohit…please allow it as our daughter will get a little bit of happiness through it.

Pooja pleaded:Please Rohit uncle…if you really love her,atleast before marriage please allow her to exhibit her paintings.

Rohit:Call Raavi.

Pooja got tensed.

She thought:Will he scold Raavi because of me?Poor Raavi did’nt even know that I came here to talk to Rohit phupha about this.

Rohit:I say..call Raavi.

Seeing Pooja silent,Rohit called Raavi loudly.The scared Raavi came there.Sonakshi followed her.

Raavi:Yes papa.

Rohit:Do you want to take part in the painting exhibition in the college?

Raavi shivered.

Rohit:Yes or no?

Raavi replied out of fear:No.

Pooja and Sonakshi became upset.

Rohit:You are an obedient daughter.That’s why you lied that you don’t want to participate against my wish.Good.

Raavi looked at him emotionally.

Pooja and Sonakshi were relieved that Rohit did not scold Raavi,but were sad that Rohit did not permit her to take part in the exhibition.

Rohit:But now I am telling you to take part in the exhibition.

Raavi,Sonakshi,Pooja and Veena were surprised.

Raavi:Really papa?

Rohit:Yes.You are in final year.Only this year you can participate.After that I will get you married.

Raavi:Thank you papa.

Rohit:Hmmmm!

Rohit just walked away.

Veena:Are you happy Raavi?

Raavi:Yes dadi.Atleast during my college days,papa gave me the permission to take part in painting programmes.That’s more than enough dadi.

Raavi and Veena hugged and kissed each other happily.

Pooja thought:Usually everyone wishes to pursue their dream through out their life.But Raavi is satisfied with what she does in college.Because she has been forced to do.Poor girl!

Raavi exhibited her painting in the college fest.Her painting got maximum appreciation and she won the first prize.Raavi could not believe it when they announced her as the winner.

Raavi said in her mind:Thanks to Pooja for convincing papa to permit me to take part in the exhibition.

Shiva went near her:Congrats Raavi.

Raavi:Thank you.

Shiva:I did’nt know that you were such a nice painter.Your painting looks so beautiful.It looks like a photograph.

Raavi smiled.

Shiva:All these years why did’nt you show case your talent?Why did you hide your talent till now?

Raavi became dull.

She thought:Because my papa had not allowed me to expose my talent.

It was evening when the college programme got over.Raavi waited for the bus.But she did not get any bus.She got tensed.

Shiva came there with his bike.

Shiva:Raavi,don’t go allow at this time.It may not be safe.I will drop you.

Raavi got tensed.

Raavi:No no.

Raavi thought:If anyone sees us together,I will be killed.Everyone will misunderstand that we are lovers.

Shiva:Raavi,if you wait for the bus,you may not get any bus as it’s difficult to get bus at this time to go to your route.

Raavi thought:If I become very late to reach home,everyone will get angry and will never allow me to take part in college programmes.

Shiva:Come Raavi,I will drop you.

Raavi nodded.Shiva became very happy.

Raavi sat behind his bike.He started riding his bike.Raavi was tensed whether anyone will see her with Shiva on the bike.

Raavi was sitting there without touching Shiva.

In between he took a brake and Raavi fell on his back.He blushed.Raavi moved back quickly in embarrassment.

Raavi:Sorry.

He just smiled and rode the bike.

Shiva dropped Raavi near her house.

Raavi:Bye..thank you.

She quickly ran inside home.

Shiva:What a strange girl!She just ran inside home.

Raavi was tensed.

Raavi thought:Did anyone see me with Shiva?

Sonakshi came.

Sona:You came so late.

Raavi:The programme got over late.

Sona:I thought so.Your papa,dadaji and dadimaa went out.So you escaped.Otherwise they would have scolded you for coming back late.

She was relieved.

That time itself  Rohit,Naren and Veena reached there.Pulkit and Pooja also came there.

Rohit:How was your exhibition?

Sona:Ya…how was it beta?

Rohit:Did Everything go well?

Raavi took out the trophy from her bag and said:I won the first prize papa.

Everyone became very happy and surprised.

Sonakshi,Veena and Pooja hugged her saying:Congrats Raavi.

Pulkit:Congrats Raavi.

Unknowingly Rohit and Naren smiled.

Naren:I did’nt know that you were this talented Raavi.

Raavi smiled.

Naren:But a girl’s real talent is cooking.You better brush up your cooking skill.

He walked away.

Raavi,Veena,Sonakshi and Pooja became dull seeing Naren’s attitude.Veena walked to her room.

Rohit saw Raavi’s sad face.

Rohit:Very good Raavi.I am glad to know that my daughter is very talented.

Raavi could not express how happy she was to hear a compliment from her father for the first time.

Raavi smiled emotionally.

Raavi:Thank you papa.

Rohit walked away with a slight smile.

Raavi and Pooja in the room….

Pooja:I am really happy for you Raavi.

Raavi:If I am happy,it’s because of you Pooja.

Pooja smiled.

Pooja:Well…I saw a boy dropping you home from the balcony.Who is he?

Raavi was shocked.

Raavi:You saw him?

Pooja:Yes.I only saw him.So relax.Don’t be scared.Is he your lover?

Raavi:No no.Shiva is not even my friend.He just gave me a lift.

Pooja:I found you very comfortable with him.Do you have feelings for him?

Raavi was stunned by her question.

Pooja:Tell me frankly Raavi.Don’t hide anything from your sister.

Raavi remembered her moments with Shiva.

Raavi:I don’t know.

Pooja:Don’t suppress your feelings like you suppress your wishes.

Raavi became upset.

Pooja’s birthday came.

Arjun and Lakshmi wished her on the video call.

Arjun-Lakshmi:Happy birthday Princess.

Pooja:Thank you.

Suddenly she became sad and said:Miss you dad and mom.

Lakshmi:We also miss you Pooja.I wish you were here.

Arjun:If you were here,we could have celebrated your birthday together.

Pooja became emotional.

Sonakshi,Raavi and Pulkit came inside and closed the door.

Sonakshi was holding a cake in her hand.

Sonakshi,Pulkit,Raavi:Happy birthday Pooja.

Pooja,Lakshmi and Arjun were surprised.

Pooja:Thank you very much.

Pulkit:Maa has made a cake with her hands for you.

Pooja was surprised:Thank you so much Maasi.You made me feel special.

Sona:You are special to me Pooja.

They hugged each other.

Arjun-Lakshmi became emotional seeing it.

Suddenly Sonakshi saw Arjun and Lakshmi on the phone.

Lakshmi:Didi….jeeju…

Lakshmi:Sona…

They became very emotional to see each other.

Arjun:You both are becoming sentimental on Pooja’s birthday?

Lakshmi and Sonakshi smiled.

Arjun:Thank you so much Sonakshi for taking care of our daughter.

Sona:What are you saying jeeju?Pooja is my daughter also.Right?

Lakshmi smiled.

Lakshmi:Let me see your children also.They are my children also.

They smiled.Pulkit and Raavi came on screen.

They chatted with Lakshmi and Arjun.

Then they sang birthday song.Pooja cut the cake and they fed the cake to Pooja.Pooja fed them back.The video call was ended by Pooja hearing the foot steps of other family members.

Sona:They don’t like too much of celebrations especially girls’ birthday celebration.They think that girls should not enjoy too much.It does’nt suit their culture.

Pooja was shocked:How stupid!

They hid the cake and went out of the room.

After some time,Rohit came their way.

Rohit stared at them.

Rohit:What was the noise which I heard some time ago?

All were tensed.

Sona:Today is Pooja’s birthday.We just wished her.Nothing else.

Sona thought:I hope Rohit does’nt doubt that we celebrated Pooja’s birthday.

Rohit looked at Pooja.All were tensed.

Rohit:Happy birthday Pooja.God bless you.

Pooja was very happy.Sonakshi,Raavi and Pulkit were surprised.

Pooja:Thank you uncle.

Rohit walked away giving her a smile.

Aarav took Pooja somewhere.

Pooja:Where are you taking me Aarav?If Rohit phupha comes to know it,he will be very angry.Because he has told me not to mingle with boys.

Aarav:So though you came here to change their narrow minded attitude,you have changed yourself and decided not to mingle with a boy like me?

Pooja:Do you think I will stop talking to you for Rohit phupha?No way.No one can change Pooja.

They giggled.

Aarav led her to his farm house.She was surprised to see the decoration.

Aarav:Happy birthday Pooja.

Pooja smiled:You surprised me my friend.

He smiled:I like giving surprises.

Pooja:How many girls were surprised by you?

Aarav:Till now only you.I don’t know about the future.

Pooja slapped his shoulder playfully.They laughed.

Aarav showed her the cake and said:Here is the cake.

Pooja:Wow!It looks yummy.

Aarav:Cut the cake birthday girl.

Pooja took the knife and said:Yes,I am going to cut the cake.

She cut the cake.

Aarav fed her the cake.She fed him back.

Pooja:Thanks for this sweet surprise Aarav.

He patted her cheek cutely.

They took some selfies.

Pooja told Sonakshi about Aarav’s surprise.

Sona:Thankfully Rohit and his parents are not aware of your friendship with Aarav.

Forget about friendship,talking to a boy itself is considered as a sin in this family.

Pooja just smiled.

Sonakshi:Can I ask you something?Do you love Aarav?

Pooja smiled:We are just friends Maasi.But I don’t know about the future.

Sonakshi opened her mouth in ‘O’ shape.

Sona:What?

Pooja:Just kidding Maasi.If I love Aarav,I will not hide it.I don’t think nobody from here will object it as they don’t consider me as their family member.

Sonakshi smiled.
