Helllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllloooooooooooooooooooo to all my dear swasanians…..
I am so so soooooooooooooooooooooo happy today and that is due to 2 reasons:
1. Our hellu is being bashed so much and you know guys I really fell happy seeing her getting bashed…
Okay okay don’t think that I am not a helly fan or that I am mad, even I used to feel sad seeing that in the starting. But then I thought that when hellu is paying no heed to all this drama then why should I, when she knows the truth and her fans know the truth then why should we worry about others right. And I feel soooooooo happy to see all these people soooooooooooo jealous of her, they need to do so much to demotivate her but still aren’t able to do so. I am proud to be HELLYHOLLIC as well as SWASANHOLLIC. She is a true inspiration guys.
2. Guys as you all know that now the main part of the story is going to start and I am really very very veeerrrrryyyy excited to write it….
Hope you all like the story too and do give me your opinions through the comment guys will be waiting for it eagerly.
At Night :
All the pre wedding rituals are finished now, it’s night time and all the people are resting in both the homes.
Tomorrow is wedding and it’s really going to be a busy day for all of them.
All are having a peaceful sleep except 2 souls.
One pair of eyes is lost in the beautiful dreams of THEIR future together, while one pair of eyes is shedding tears as from tomorrow all her DREAMS will be left behind.
One face is constantly having a bright smile reflecting the happiness in his heart while the other has a sad smile playing on her lips explain all her pain.
One pair of eyes shining due to happiness while the other shining due to those unshed tears in her eyes.
One heart beating fastly due to the happiness, excitement and nervousness of their marriage while the other one too is beating fastly but due to fear, sadness, nervousness and what not.
Swasan were both sleeping on their respective beds but not getting sleep they got up from the bed and went in the balcony to get some fresh air.
Swara : bas ek raat aur…… [just one night more]
Sanskaar : aur phir hum dono saath honge [and then we both will be together]
Swasan together : hamesha hamesha ke liye… [ forever and ever]
With these they both went to their beds and slept after getting lost in their own thoughts.
Morning :
Maheshwari mansion:
The sun rose as usual shining in all its might and glimmering through the house, new morning grew as usual, the birds were chirping as usual. But for one person nothing seemed as usual, to hi everything seemed DIFFERENT. So different that he was smiling to himself from the morning itself and Uttara and all his friends just kept on teasing him like never before and why wouldn’t they after all it’s not a small thing to see the youngest business tycoon Sanskaar Maheshwari blushing so cutely.
Everyone was busy with the decorations, dress and other stuff.
Mehta house :
To say that mrs. Parvati Mehta was happy today would really be an understatement. She was too happy to see her lovely ladoo getting married and that inauspicious girl’s marriage was just working like a cherry on top.
She was instructing workers to do their work carefully so as to please her in-laws.
Maheshwari mansion :
Evening 5 pm:
The baraat was ready to go. The grooms were still in their rooms and their respective mothers had went to bring them.
Laksh’s room :
Sujata entered the room and was really happy seeing her son decked as a groom.
She went to him and blessed him for a better future.
Laksh’s face was glowing due to happiness. He was wearing a blue coloured sherwani with a red coloured safa on his head.
They went from there to the hall.
Sanskaar’s room.
Our prince was standing there with a pout confused face. Annapurana arrived there and as soon as she saw him a happy smile formed on her face while her eyes had tears of happiness.
She just kept on admiring her son. How much happy she was seeing her son standing here as a groom. It is the wish of every mother to see her child’s marriage and now seeing her son getting ready for his marriage, it was like a dream for her.
Sanskaar who was moving from his current position saw his mom standing there. He smiled seeing her.
Sanskaar : mom what are you doing there come inside naa.
Annapurana came out from her trance and nodded her head and came inside.
She took the bad eyes off him and then applied a small black tikka behind his ear.
Ap : my son you are looking so handsome. May god protect you from all bad sights.
And indeed he was looking like a prince in his beautiful simple golden coloured sherwani with a diamond long maala on his neck as per the tradition, the red coloured dhoti, the red coloured shawl placed neatly on his shoulder, the red coloured saafa on his head, and the diamond broach attached to it.
He wore the traditional mojris on his foot [shoes]. With a sword in his hand as per the tradition.
And to say that he was looking like a PRINCE would be absolutely correct.
Sanskaar : [poutingly] really mom, like am I looking good, you see she should be impressed seeing me right and already she is so beautiful, what if I don’t match her level.
While Annapurna bursted out laughing hearing his son’s worries.
Sanskaar : [whining like a child] moooooooommmmmmmm.
Ap : [controlling her laugh] okay okay I won’t laugh but seriously Sanskaar you are worrying for this. [seeing his sad face] okay okay jokes apart [emotionally] you are looking like a prince my dear son and she is your princess, you both look perfectly MADE FOR EACH OTHER. So don’t worry unnecessarily okay. Now come we are getting late for the baarat.
And so they too went in the hall.
Hall :
The baarat was ready to depart. It was a type of royal barat all dressed beautifully in traditional rajasthani outfits. Since it was royal baarat only the traditional dhol and shehnai were played.
There was no dancing and all.
Wedding venue :
The wedding was held at a traditional wedding hall in the city. It was just looking like a magnificient palace.
The whole place decorated with shimmering lights, flowers and garlands. there was a fountain at the entrance of the palace.
The hall was like a palace with a garden in the centre of the hall where the mandap was decorated.
The mandap was ready in the traditional way. It’s 4 pillars specifying the parents of both the bride and the groom.
And a havan kund in the centre with all the necessary pooja items arranged.
Ragini’s room.
Ragini was getting ready in a beautiful red coloured designer lehenga [which she wore in her first marriage with laksh]
She was almost ready and was looking really pretty. Today her daadi maa had made her ready with her own hands after all it was her laado’s marriage day.
Swara’s room.
Oh god !!!!! not again even today swara was sitiing on the bed with pout face and the kids were fighting.
Heer : diiiiiii please please let us make you ready naa please….
Parlour girl : no bacchas you people will spoil her look.
Navu : [angrily] no we won’t.
Parlour girl : but…
Swara : [finally finding a solution] acchaa okay okay I have a solution for this. Heeru, navu you both make me wear jewelleries and all other accessories okay and you [to parlour girl] you do my make up okay.
To which all of them nodded their heads like obedient kids.
Swara went from there for the traditional bath before wearing the bridal dress.
According to the ritual, the bride’s hair is to be oiled properly and then washed with a mixture of water, reetha and milk. Her hair were then dried and fragranced with the aid of incense sticks. The dried hair was then styled into elaborate braids and finally tied in a bun. Then a paste of turmeric, sandalwood, milk and saffron was applied on her body to provide glow to her skin.
After her bath she was made ready in a bright red and golen coloured lehenga.
The choli was red in colour while the lehenga was golden in colour and a red coloured duppata pinned on her shoulder and then tucked on her waist.
Then started the process of doing her SOLAH SHRINGAAR which consists of 16 elements by which the bride is made ready.
A beautiful red coloured bindi with a diamond in the centre was applied on her forehead, the nathani attached on her nose, the beautiful golden necklace with diamonds studded on it adorned her neck, her hair which were tied in a bun with a centre maang were adorned with the beautiful gajras made up of mogra flowers adding beauty to her hairs and enhancing the smell, her ears decorated with beautiful golden jhumkas, a beautiful tikka was decorated on her head, a kamar band tied on her white petite waist making her look all the more fragile and delicate, the beautiful payal adorning her foot.
Her hands which were beautifully covered by the mehendi design, which was now dark red or brownish in colour signified how much her prince loves her, the beautiful red and golden bangles enhancing the beauty of her hands more and the golden ring in her hand.
All these were the ornaments that her mother had collected for her right from the childhood to make her doll, her princess ready on the marriage day, her eyes teared thinking of her mom. How much she missed her at the most important day of her life but she wiped her unshed tears silently.
Her eyes had a thick layer of kohl and eye liner increasing the beauty of her eyes. She had applied slight foundation and nothing more on the name of make up and red coloured lipstick on her lips. Thus making those beautiful petals look all the more beautiful.
And there she was ready for her prince. Do I still need to say that she was looking like an angel, an apsara descened from the heaven.
There was still some time left for the wedding to start and swara was sitting in the balcony of her room looking at the album that had hers and her mother’s childhood pics.
Suddenly the door opened with a thud sound. She went inside to see who it was and to her shock it was her daadi.
She became so happy that her daadi came to bless her before her marriage, she smiled with teary eyes and went to hug her but her smile faded away when daadi showed her hand and stopped her from hugging her.
Daadi : [sternly] kush to bohot hogi na aaj tu, iss ghar se jaa rahi he hamesha hamesha ke liye [you will be very happy today right as you are going out of this forever]
Swara : [teary eyes and confused way] daadi ye aap kya keh rahi hai. [what are you saying daadi]
Daadi : bilkul thik keh rahi hu mein. Uss din tune maahre ko pucha than a ki jab rishta maari laado ke liye aaya tha to thaari shaadi kese tai ho gayi. [what I am saying is absolutely correct. That day you asked me right that how your marriage got fixed when the alliance came for my laado right.]
Then listen, pandit ji came and told me that your marriage should happen before or with my laado or else big problem will come in my laado’s married life and that may be due to your besharmi to study more being a girl huhh. And that’s why we fixed your marriage in the same house as hers so that all her problems will fall on you. And you will be dhal on all the problems in my laado’s life.
She went from there spitting the bitter truth to that innocent soul.
Swara began crying miserably seeing how much her daadi hated her. For the well being of her dii she spoiled my life, but what about my dreams then, even di is educated then why my studies are looking like a crime to daadi. Just on these false beliefs she spoiled my life.
Here navu and the other kids entered the room and were shocked seeing swara crying so bitterly, they immediately rushed to her and started bombarding their questions to her.
Heer : what happened di??
Dev: di tell me if someone scolded you are said anything to you I will not leave him/her.
Hemish : haa di just tell me the name of that person.
Swara just hugged them all together tightly and was crying miserably learning the most bitter truth of her life at the biggest day of her life.
Here all the kids were panicking seeing her crying.
Dev : di what happened to you??
Swara who heard all of them worried quickly wiped off her tears to not make them worried.
Swara : [wiping off her tears] ha ha I am perfectly ok dears….
Then her eyes fell on navu who was almost crying.
Swara : [hugging navu and wiping her tears] navu what happened bacha why are you crying.
Navu : [wiping her nose with the back of her hands] becauzze [because] you ale [are] cling [crying].
Swara smiled widely with teary eyes in a aww listening to her. These innocent kids were the example of pure and unconditional love and she had experienced it very well in all these years.
Swara : aww stop crying bacha see even I am not crying now.
Dev : but di why were you crying so much..
Swara : [finding words to answer them] act actually I was crying because ha because I will miss all of you so much.
While all the kids smiled widely and replied : we will miss you sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much diii.
And then all of them burst out laughing.
Heer : don’t worry di we have made sanskaar jiju our friend so we will be together forever….
While the call came for bride and so swara washed her face and set her make up.
The kids covered her face with ghunghat and they all surrounded her helping her to carry that heavy lehenga and all of thm marched downstairs.
Hall :
Sanskaar was sitiing in the mandap in front of the holy fire. The pandit was reciting mantras.
He asked them to call the brides and that’s when his heart started beating all the more loudly.
He was feeling an unknown happiness in his heart.
Swara was descending downwards and she could feel her heart thumping against her ribcage.
She looked through her ghunghat to see sanskaar already staring at her.
He was really looking like a prince she thought.
[guys please play this song in bg I swear you will get clear view of their wedding please]
Song : aaj mohe piya ghar aavenge by Kailash kher.
Chokh Puraavo
Maati Rangaavo
Aaj Mere Piya Ghar Aavengey
Aaj Mere Piya Ghar Aavengey
Sanskaar was looking at swara completely mesmerised, he was just lost in her spell and the feeling that she was ONLY FOR HIM, she was only HIS and she wore all this of HIS NAME was filling his heart with utter happiness.
Khabar Sunaaun Jo
Khushi Reh Bataaun Jo
Aaj Mere Piya Ghar Aavengey
Aaj Mere Piya Ghar Aavengey
Swara was made to sit beside sanskaar, he helped her adjusting her heavy lehenga. The bride is made to sit on the left side of the groom.
The rituals started and the kanyadaan was done by parvati, though not happily but she gave swara’s hand in the hand of the person who would care for her the most and protect her from all the evils.
Heri Sakhi Mangal Gaao Ree
Dharti Ambar Sajaao Ree
Utregi Aaj Mere Pee Ki Sawaari
The gath bandhan was done by all the kids together and swara and sanskaar’s hands were tied together. Now this bond can never be broken by anyone.
Har Koi Kaajal Laau Ree
Mohey Kaala Tika Lagaao Ree
Unki Chhab Se Dikhu Main To Pyaari
Lachhmi Ji Vaaro
Nazar Utaaro
Aaj Mere Piya Ghar Aavenge
Aaj Mere Piya Ghar Aavenge
.they were asked to stand for the seven phera’s . The Seven Vows along with the Seven Pheras are the most important ritual in a Hindu Wedding as it sanctifies the union and affords social recognition to the marriage
Rangon Se Rang Miley
Naye Naye Dhang Khiley
Khushi Aaj Dwaar Mere Daaley Hai Dera
Peehu Peehu Papiha Ratey
Kuhu Kuhu Koyal Japey
Aangan Aagan Hai Pariyon Ne Ghera

For the First Vow, the Groom promises: “om esha ekapadi bhava iti prathaman” meaning ‘You will offer me food and be helpful in every way. I will cherish you and provide welfare and happiness for you and our children’. The bride complies in return:“dhanam dhanyam pade vadet”‘ I am responsible for the home and all household, food and finance responsibilities’. Concisely, the bride and groom promise each other prosperity by fulfilling their respective roles in their lives.
For the Second Vow the groom says: “om oorje jara dastayaha”, meaning ‘Together we will protect our house and children’. The Bride in return promises “kutumburn rakshayishyammi sa aravindharam”, which translates as ‘I will be by your side as your courage and strength. I will rejoice in your happiness. In return, you will love me solely’.
During the Third Vow, the Groom says, “om rayas santu joradastayaha” by which he means ‘May we grow wealthy and prosperous and strive for the education of our children and may our children live long.’ In return the Bride promises, “tava bhakti as vadedvachacha”, meaning ‘I will love you solely for the rest of my life, as you are my husband. Every other man in my life will be secondary. I vow to remain chaste’.

During the Fourth Vow, the Groom declares “om mayo bhavyas jaradastaya ha” by which he means ‘You have brought sacredness into my life, and have completed me. May we be blessed with noble and obedient children’ In return for this promise, the Bride says “lalayami cha pade vadet”, by which she means, ‘I will shower you with joy, from head to toe. I will strive to please you in every way I can’.
For the Fifth Vow, the Groom says, “om prajabhyaha santu jaradastayaha”, which means ‘You are my best friend, and staunchest well-wisher. You have come into my life, enriching it. God bless you’. To this the Bride says, “arte arba sapade vadet” or ‘I promise to love and cherish you for as long as I live. Your happiness is my happiness, and your sorrow is my sorrow. I will trust and honor you, and will strive to fulfill all your wishes’.
During the Sixth Vow, the Groom asks, “Rutubhyah shat padi bhava” which means ‘Now that you have taken six steps with me, you have filled my heart with immense happiness. Will you do the kindness of filling my heart with happiness like this for all times?’ to this the Bride replies, “yajna hom shashthe vacho vadet” meaning ‘I will always be by your side’.
For the Last and Seventh Vow, the Groom says “Om sakhi jaradastayahga”, by which he proclaims ‘We are now husband and wife, and are one. You are mine and I am yours for eternity.’ The Bride accepts this proclamation and says “Attramshe sakshino vadet pade”, which means ‘As God is witness, I am now your wife. We will love, honor and cherish each other forever.’
Sanskaar and swara were promising these things together by heart and they also promised each other in their mind that they will fulfil all these promises throughout all their life.
Afterwards sanskaar was asked to make swara wear the holy mangalsutrs. It is made up of black and golden coloured beads with a diamond or gold pendant attached to it. ‘mangal’ means auspicious and ‘sutra’ means thread. It is worn by every married woman until their husband’s death.
Then he smeared the red powder or the auspicious sindoor on her maang. Thus making her ‘his’ for the entire seven births.
The pandit ji declared the marriage to be complete and they took elder’s blessings.
When sanskaar went down the mandap he couldn’t find his shoes anywhere.
Sanskaar : where are my shoes yaar, I kept them here onlu.
While the others smiled hearing him.
Dev : the one whom you are finding from so long.
Hemish : the one which you wear in your foot.
Dhruvmil : which are obviously your dear shoes.
Heer : we know where they are.
Riya : but we won’t give them to you until.
Kashvi : you promise to give something in exchange of them.
Sanskaar was just looking at them wide eyes. These little devils had his shoes and they were asking him something in exchange of it.
While the others bursted out laughing hearing them.
Here swara was in a dilemma, she was worried if anyone from the groom’s family or her daadi will scold them, or she should laugh hearing their innocent rhyme.
Sanskaar : accha tell me what do you want??
Dev : neither chocolates nor toys.
Hemish : not new shoes and clothes even.
Dhruvmil : no pizza and burger too.
Sanskaar : then what ??
Navu : we want shona di……. [interrupted by sanskaar]
Sanskaar : no no nooooooo I won’t give you my swara now she is mine forever.
Swara who heard him could feel several jilters going down her spine.
Navu : offo [slapping her forehead] we want the most important thing and that is….
All the kids together : our shona diii’ss happiness.
Swasan smiled wide hearing this. Sanskaar bend down on his knees and hugged them all and promised them.
Sanskaar : I promise you that I will always keep your shona di happy, never let a drop of tear come in her eyes, fulfil all her dreams and give her all the love I have.
He promised not only to them but also to himself.
Afterwards the Bidaai took place.
Precap : the most anokhi wedding night till now.
