Spectators just caught hold of a tremendous view mid air. Flight INR 865642, British Airways, heading towards London that had just departed Mumbai airport after much delay, exploded mid air, a few hundred feets off the runway. The flight which was scheduled to depart at 7:15 had taken off just a five minutes ago at 8:15, after repairment of certain technical errors, but seems everything had gone wrong. A 300, including passengers and crew members, lost their lives in sky. Not a single soul survived the devastating accident mid sky.

Spectators on Western Express Highway just witnessed a devastating accident when a Royal Enfield almost flying at lightning speed lost control and came before a truck. The rider flew off the seat, had no helmet on and was dead on spot. Seemed his ethnic speed didn't let him survive any longer.

Let's take a deep breath, and let a big sigh escape our hearts...
And then let us analyse the whole thing, closing our eyes for a minute.
We laymen mistake love to be a very worldly pleasure ; hashtag redroses, hashtag hugs&kisses, hashtag marriage, hashtag happilyeverafter...
The truth lies in the fact, that love has the capability to win over every bad omen, every ill fate, every misbelief, every wrong notion, but not maybe always in a way we wish that to be.
Of all the deaths Vivaan 'caused' throughout his little life...this one was unique. He chose to die along.
And, and...Riha could have left alone, remaining stamped as another victim of Vivaan's cursed love forever, but she didn't do that...she took him along. Why? She knew she died not because of a Vivaan's curse, she died because her time had come and even if she hadn't met Vivaan, she would probably have to leave world. But she freed Vivaan from a terrible guilt for life, maybe even being blamed by some who would only care about that.
Love cannot drastically change every bit, but it can drastically end a spree, in the hope of a new life, together, someplace else, if not this life together.
PS : Don't curse me. As much as you wanted them to live happily ever after, I did too! But not all life stories can become a wordly love story, neither do all love stories have a happy ending in this life itself. While you may forever think why Riha even met Vivaan, I myself will forever be haunted by the depth of the words, " as long as Vivaan is alive, Riha cannot die..."
Life is a mystery. And sometimes you just ain't even no more in this life to solve the mystery of your life...and its end. Maybe a better afterlife awaits you, with the person of your choice...
And the worst part of being a writer is, you live the life of those who come down your pen, you die their deaths too. Readers read, readers forget. But you are here, haunted by Vivaans and Rihas ...forever!
" Aasmaa ke pare ek jahaan hai kaheen,
jhooth sach ka wahaan kayda hi nahi!
Roshni me wahaan ki alag noor hai,
saaye jismon se aage jahaan jaate hain,
Chal wahaan jaate hain,
Chal wahaan jaate hain ,
pyaar karne chalo hum wahaan jaate hain! "
*****
THE END
