Lady Bacchan (who’ll more often be referred to as Suman Aunty from now) guided DevAkshi to their flat. It was a small cozy one. There was just one room with a round bed. The walls were painted white & the roof & floor had wooden work.It had a small wooden bedside table & and a lamp shade. There was an old study table which looked like it will break down any minute & a gramophone on a distant corner …
Sona: Gramophone!! Ye abhi bhi milte hain?
LB: Mrs. Dixit I want to warn you two about something, this study table, gramophone & lampshade are very dear to me, more than my own life. If something happens to them I’ll make sure that your stay here becomes hellish… Barring that, you have a kitchen to the left & the washroom is at the end… There is a cupboard over there … Enjoy & if you wish you can call me Suman Aunty … I don’t want to be called ma’am again & personally, I feel Lady Bacchan doesn’t suit me much
After giving all the details LB left them alone. Sona ran to the window which gave a breathtaking view of the valley. As far as her eyes could see huge stern mountains stood in all their glory. The sun was hiding behind the mountains. Rows of Deodars & other coniferous trees lined the hillside. A whistling thrush (bird) sat on the branch of the nearest Rhododendron & sang a beautiful tune
Sona: I always wanted a Himalayan Home … Dev … Dev are you listening?
Dev was busy with the Gramophone
Sona: What are you doing with it? If something happens to it then Lady Bacchan will…
Dev: Detain us?
Sona: Maybe … & she may say that: will you have tea/coffee till I type your detention letter?
Dev smiled
Dev: Good old days
Sona: Yes Good Old Days … But what were you doing with the Gramophone? Iski maramat karne ka irada hai?
Dev: I guess it can start working again if I just …
Sona: No … you won’t touch it
Dev: Let me please Sona … Dekho if it starts working we can listen to old songs &
Sona: &
Dev: Give me your hand
Sona: Lo
Dev: We can dance like this on old songs
Sona: Old songs… JAise?
Dev cleared his throat & began dancing with Sonakshi while softly singing
Lag ja gale se phir ye haseen raat ho na ho
Shayad phir is janam me mulakat ho na ho
Lag ja gale se
Sona: Now I will sing
Humko mili hain aaj ye ghadiyan naseeb se
Jee bhar ke dekh lijiye humko kareeb se
Phir aapke naseeb mein
Ye baat ho na ho
Shayad phir is janam mein mulakat ho na ho
Dev: Ho gaya?
Sona: You have done masters in spoiling the moment … Now dance with this gramophone only
Dev: Abhi na jao chod kar
Ke dil abhi bhara nahi
Abhi na jao chod kar
Ke dil abhi bhara nahi
Abhi abhi to aaye ho
Bahar ban ke chaaye ho
Hawa zara mehak to le nazar zara behek to le
Ye sham dhal to le zara
Ye sham dhal to le zara
Ye dil sambhal to le zara
mai thodi der jee to lun nashe ke ghunt pee to lun
Nashe ke ghunt
Abhi to kuch kaha nahi
Abhi to kuch suna nahi
Bura na mano baat ka ye pyaar hai gila nahi
Sona: I can’t go anywhere Mr. Dixit because you have kidnapped me
Dev: I’m sorry Sonakshi … I know what I did is not right but we had no option … You can be mad at me
Sona: I’m not angry
Dev: Shotti?
Sona: Mucchi
Dev released Sona from the dancing position & said
Dev: Good then … So Mrs Dixit from now on let’s make something clear … You’ll get up before me, make bed tea, & all three meals for the day … On top of all that you’ll call me PRANNATH
Sona gawked at him
Dev: Socho mai aisa wala husband hota to
Sona: To … I would have shown you ki mai kaise wali wife hoti
Dev: But the Prannath idea was good
Sona: Seriously?
Dev: Seriously. I would have called you Nath Ki Pran
Sona: Tumi Eakdom Impossible
The two of them laughed at this & their laughter got accompanied by a background tune which lead to the following song
Iss tarah se tu aaya hai mujhmein
Ke teri baatein karti hain dhadkanein…
Har pal tu har jagah mere saath hai
Kaise kahu tu kitna mere paas hai
Ke mujh mein mujhse zyaada hai
Tu Mujhme mujhse zyaada hai
Tu Mujhmein mujhse zyaada hai
Sona: Waise Dev … There is something that I need to make very very clear
Dev: Yes ma’am
Sona: I’ve seen couples calling each other baby, Jaanu, Jaan
Dev: So?
Sona: So … please don’t call me all of that … I just find it too cheesy
Dev: Tabhi to I said Nath ki Pran & Prannath are perfect… just perfect
Sona: Devrath Dixit … I won’t call you Prannath
& Sona threw a cushion kept next to her on the sofa right at Dev’s face
Sona: Bull’s eye
Dev: Okay okay … Call whatever you want to but I’ll call you Ms Potato
Sona: Ms Potato? Am I still fat? I really worked hard to reduce my weight… Have I gained weight? Oh God I told Maa not to make me eat so many Rosogullas but she doesn’t listen to me ever
Dev: Calm down Sonakshi you are as thin as your hair
Sona: My hair? They are thin? Ufff this idiot hairfall won’t stop!
Dev: Sorry baba galti ho gayi & since when have you become so self conscious … Stop behaving like a girl
Sona: I am a girl
Dev: Oh ya sorry I didn’t notice
Sona: Tumi eakdom
Dev: I know kitni baar bologi yaar
Sona: Sorry … But Dev I want something
Dev: You can ask for anything … after all your husband has made all these six packs & biceps to lift your demands
Sona: Ufff your dramebaazi
Dev: Dramebaazi ke baad I can do Ishqbaazi also
Sona: Now before your dil starts speaking Oberoi Let me finish my sentence
Dev: Go ahead
Sona: I need a promise … You will never ever hide anything from me … You have taken away all my pain, that NGO that you started for those girls was so sweet
Dev: Really? I didn’t taste the bricks
Sona: Dev…
Dev: Sonakshi…
Sona: Be serious … You didn’t tell me about your cancer… You decided to suffer alone, silently … I should have been your humdard but you have throughout shared my pain, infact you didn’t want me to face any problem … Now you will not suffer alone … Any problem or happiness that comes our way is ours … we are not Dev & Sonakshi … we are DevAkshi
Dev: You get too poetic at times
Sona cocked an eyebrow at him
Dev: Don’t make me senti … I just want to be happy with my wife & you are disturbing me
Sona: Oh Hello! I have no intentions to waste my time with you … Even my husband is waiting for me … He is 10 times more caring & hot than you
Dev: Really? Tell your husband to stay away from you because I really really like you &
Sona: &?
Dev: I may end up kidnapping you
Sona: Oh shit! Kidnapping se yaad aaya I have to call Maa
Sona went near the window & called Asha
Asha: Shona!!! How can you do this … If you wanted to work in Mussoorie you should have told me … I would have talked to Bijoy to delay your engagement
Sona(whispers): Batane ke liye mujhe to pata hona chahiye na
Asha: Kya?
Sona: Nothing
Asha: You are happy na there?
Sona turned around to face the mirror at the other side of the room & looked at herself, particularly the vermillion lining her hair
Sona: Never felt better maa
