The dynamic between Patraleka, Omi, Ninad and Kaku is so interesting. I think it can be explored very well, when Sai leaves. Here’s a short excerpt of what I think can be a really thought provoking scene.
—————————-
“Yeh waali nahi, yeh waali bhi nahi, accha isko bookmark karo ek baar” Bhavani said, as she and Ninad went through a matrimonial website.
“Yeh waali? Vahini yeh MBBS kar rahi hai, isse to door hi rehna chahiye! Hahahaha!”
Bhavani roared in laughter at this, “Shakl aur khaandaan dono badhiya hai. Mbbs ka kya hai, shaadi ke baad rukva denge.”
“Baraabar.” Ninaad said, nodding his head enthusiastically.
Meanwhile, Patralekha stood in utter shock at Bhavani’s doorstep. The tray with chai slipped from her hands.
“Arre Patralekha beti, kya hua?”Ninaad said as soon as he heard the noise of glass shattering.
“Tsk tsk, lagta hai tumse phisal gaya. Koi baat nahi, Ashwini saaf kar degi, tum yahaan aao, bas tumhara hi intezaar kar rahe the hum.”
All Pakhi could do was stare in horror. Bhavani walked up to her and held her by the shoulders, “Kya soch rahi ho? Haan hairani ki baat to hai ki Ninaad ko laptop chalaana aata hai, par itni bhi nahi. Chalo aao betho hamare saath.”
“Kya Vahini, aap badi mazaakiya hain!” Ninaad whined.
Bhavani led Patralekha to the sofa, and made her sit in front of the laptop.
Ninad prodded Patralekha “Ab bataao? Kaunsi ladki chahiye tumhe devraani ke taur par? Sach mein ek se ek item hai-“
“Ninaad! Bhasha!” Bhavani chastised. “Ise ignore karo, tum bataao kaun achhi hai?” Bhavani sang as she rested her chin on Patralekha’s shoulder.
The discomfort of Bhavani’s rough skin on her shoulder woke Patralekha from her stupor. But it was no better, cause she was freaking the hell out!
“Yeh kya ho gaya? In logon ne meri aur Virat ki shaadi ki baat chalane ke bajaye, ladkiyan dekhna shuru kar diya! Da hell, mera to pura plan chaupat ho gaya ab mein kya karoon” Pakhi thought to herself.
Pakhi was panicking so she said “Umm, Maami abhi abhi to vo ladki gayi hai, mera khayaal hai thode din Virat ko time dena chahiye-“
“Hahahaha, kya baat hai Patralekha tum bhi badi mazaakiya ho” Ninad said, as he laughed emphatically.
Bhavaani nuzzled her face in Patralekha’s shoulder “Sahi mein tum to perfect ho.”
Patralekha, extremely weirded out by Bhavani’s actions turned around to look at her. Bhavani suddenly realised that Patralekha is her nephew’s wife, and could never be hers. She straightened, and pretended like she didn’t just let her true feelings for Patralekha escape.
Patralekha tried to reason with Bhavani and Ninad “Aap log kahaan yeh naye zamaane ke bachchon ki tarah ladki dhoond rahe hain. Rishte apne aap ban jaate hain maami, gaur se dekhiye shayad sahi ladki aapke bilkul saamne ho...”
“Main samajh gaya, Patralekha tum apni dost Neha ki baat kar rahi ho na? Are nahi par vo to shaadi shuda hai.”said Ninad.
“Kya farak padta hai agar shaadi shuda hai...” observed Bhavaani, as she wistfully looked at Patralekha, the love of her life.
Pakhi’s eyes lit up “Yahi to main keh rahi hoon, kya farak padta hai shaadi shuda hai!”
Ninaad exclaimed “Ek second aap log kya keh rahe hain, mujhe kuchh samajh mein nahi aa raha? Shaadishuda log bhi shaadi kar sakte hain?”as he eyed Vahini, the love of HIS life.
Patralekha could feel the situation slipping out of her hands. She’d got rid of one wife, she couldn’t handle another. As Bhavani and Ninaad argued about when to ask for Neha’s hand, Pakhi didn’t know what else to do, so she did the only thing that came to her mind.
She started weeping. Loudly. Like a baby.
Bhavani and Ninad were taken aback. Omi and Ashwini came running. Omi slipped on the chai and fell with a thud. Ashwini and Ninad started pointing at him and laughing.
Meanwhile Patralekha was still bawling at the top of her lungs. Bhavani couldn’t see her like this. “Kya hua bolo na? Main tumhe aise nahin dekh sakti, Patralekha.”
Patralekha = Still crying
“Neha se rishta nahin karvaana kya? Koi baat nahi, nahi karvaenge”
Patralekha = Still crying
“Kya chai ki vajah se ro rahi ho. Koi baat nahi, yeh sab hota rehta hai”
Patralekha = Still crying
“Kya chai peeni hai? Ashwini Patralekha ko chai do!”
Over the noise of Patralekha’s crying, and Ashwini and Ninad’s laughter, Omi thought Vahini was talking to him. He tried to squeeze the chai out of his shorts, but not much came out. He looked helplessly at Bhavaani, as Bhavani facepalmed at him.
Finally Patralekha’s crying stopped as she shouted, “SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP!”
There was pin drop silence for two minutes. At last Ninad muttered, “Neha se shaadi ki baat aage badhvayein?”
No one said anything. Pakhi quietly walked up to the doorstep where the cups had shattered. She picked up the sole cup which hadn’t shattered. She slowly turned around, and at full speed, hurled the cup at Ninad.
