Rajat's old diary, page 1

Aaj maa papa ke bahut zidd karne pe main usse dekhne gaya…Purvi Sharma naam hai uska…ek nazar dekha…theekh hai…padhi likhi hai…chaar baaten bhi ki…usne bataya ki iske pehle uski ek sagai toot chuki thi…maine puchaa nahi wajah kya thi..main janna bhi nahi chahta hoon..main toh yeh shaadi hi nahi karna chahta hoon..lekin Maa Papa ko aur kitne din taal sakta hoon..isliye haan kar di..

Pata nahi hamara rishta kabhi ban paayega ya nahi..pata nahi who mere saath reh paayegi yaa nahi..pata nahi main uske saath reh paoonga ya nahi..Maa keh rahi thi..shaadi ke baad sabko pyaar ho hi jaata hai…unhe kya pata main iss zindagi me who pyaar kar baitha hoon…main itna badnaseeb hoon..pyaar kiya bhi aur usse kho bhi diya..hamesha ke liye…mere dil me aaj bhi wohi hai…meri Sandhya..

Mere life ke sabse haseen pal ussi ke saath hai..woh meri zindagi hai….aaj uski bahut yaad aa rahi hai..main usse bhoolna nahi chahta.. ..duniya ki koi bhi ladki mere dil me uski jagah nahi le sakti..main who jagah dena hi nahi chahta..magar kya karoon majbooran uski yaadon ko dafan karna hoga..

Bas yeh kaam karne se pehle main ek baar phir se who saare lamhe jeena chahta hoon….unko hamesha ke liye shabdo me kaid karna chahta hoon..apni pyaar ki kahaani likhna chahta hoon…Meri aur Sandhya ki love story….

Rajat in train

Rajat is not feeling sleepy because of the loud snores of Daya and mainly because he misses Purvi terribly. He finds an empty seat in the train away from everyone and switches on the light and takes out his diary to write.

Rajat's new diary

Aaj main phir bichad gaya Purvi se….poore ek mahine ke liye..yeh koi sazaa se kam nahi hai mere liye….baar baar uska who udaas chehra mere saamne aa raha hai..mann karta hai abhi chalti train se kood jaao aur bhaagke usse apni baahon me leloo…

9 saal ho gaye magar pata nahi kyun aadat hi nahi ho rahi hai aise jeene ki…yeh toh pehle din se pata tha ek CID officer ki zindagi me Desh, Kanoon, Samaaj hamesha parivaar se upar hai aur rahega..magar shayad Purvi ke liye mere mann me pyaar itna badh gaya hai ki usse ek pal bhi door rehna mushkil hai..

Maine kabhi nahi socha tha..ki main kabhi kisi ladki se itna pyaar karoonga..Purvi tum ho hi aisi…tumme kuch toh baat hai jo mujhe pehle nahi dikhayi di..Shaadi ke baad pehle ke kuch mahine toh hamne theekh se ek doosre se baat bhi nahi ki..kitna bewkaoof tha main…kaash who time phir se aaye…is baar unn saare palon ko tumhare saath bitaana chahoonga main..Kaash…

Tum nahi jaanti tum mere liye kya ho..main khud bhi nahi jaanta….tum mera pyaar ho, meri zindagi, mera guroor, meri sabse achi dost, mera nasha, meri deewangi…sab kuch..I love you Purvi…I really love you..

Lagta hai aaj raat neend nahi aayegi…chalo issi bahaane who saare lamhe yaad kar leta hoon jo tumhare saath bitaaye…jo mere liye special hai..yeh hamari Love story hai Purvi..meri aur tumhari..

Purvi's house..

Purvi is shocked to read the first page. She cannot believe what she is reading. She is confused and heartbroken to know that Rajat never wanted to marry her in first place and just said yes because of his parents. She is pained to know she is not his love – it's someone else whom he cannot forget and maybe loves even today…

Kuhu (sleepy): Mammaaa…aap kya kar rahi ho..chalo naaa…mujhe neend aa rahi hai..

Purvi snaps the diary shut and keeps it on the table. She goes with Kuhu and pats her again to sleep. Purvi goes back in time to that day when she was about to meet Rajat for the first time…

Flashback

Purvi had just completed her studies and was working in a small organization as an intern. Her parents were very keen to get her married soon. They finally decide on a boy working in software industry. Her engagement is fixed, Purvi gets engaged and the boy leaves on an office assignment to USA. Within a month the boy's family break the engagement as they get a girl from a very wealthy family.

Purvi is heartbroken and she takes the rejection to her heart. Her parents decide to find another boy quickly to save their image in the society. Their family friend brings a proposal of a family from Delhi whose only son works in CID, Delhi. Everything is fixed, photos are exchanged and the boy's family flies in to Mumbai to see Purvi.

Girl seeing ceremony

Purvi is just not interested to get ready. She is still upset about the rejection.

PurviM: Beta jaldi kar..woh log 2 ghante me aate hi honge..

Purvi: yeh karna zaroori hai kya? Pichli baar aise saaja ke kya mila aapko..sagai toot gayi naa

PurviM: dekh iss baar aisa kuch nahi hoga…tere papa ne decide kiya hai…jaise hi ladka haan kahega hum jhat se sagai aur kuch hi dino me shaadi karva denge..

Purvi: Kyun maa…aap papa se kaho naa..mujhe itni jaldi shaadi nahi karni hai..abhi meri umar hi kya hai..mere doston me bhi kisiki shaadi nahi huyi..phir meri kyun maa?

PurviM: Purvi..main samajh sakti hoon….magar tum bhi hamari baat ko samjho beta…teri ek sagai toot gayi…hum jaante hai hamari koi galti nahi thi..meri beti ko thukrake log who kabhi khush nahi rahenge..magar hamara parivaar, yeh samaj toh ladki ko hi dosh dega naa…tere papa ne itne saalon me ek naam kamaya hai..unke baare me toh soch..dekho yeh ladka bahut acha hai..ek lauta hai..CID me naukri karta hai… haan kehde meri bachi…apne papa ke liye…

Purvi reluctantly gets ready. She is sitting inside the bedroom. After some time she can hear the boy's family has arrived. Her mother and aunt come inside and take Purvi to the kitchen. They give her a tray of snacks and tea/coffee and ask her to serve it to the guests outside.

Purvi walks slowly looking down with the tray and places it on the centre table. She picks up the cups of tea and serves it to first a man whom she guesses must be the boy's father, a lady who must be the boy's mother, their common family friend and finally to a young, moustached man who Purvi recognizes as the boy (Rajat) she may get married to. He takes the cup and mutters a quick thank you. They both don't glance at each other and Purvi joins her mother and aunt.

RajatM: Beti..zaraa mere paas aake baitho. Purvi's mother prompts her to go and sit next to Rajat's mom.

RajatM: tum toh photo se bhi zyaada sundar ho..naam kya bataya?

Purvi: ji Purvi..

RajatM: pyaara naam hai..kahan tak padhi ho?

Purvi: maine BCom kiya hai…MCom first year kar rahi hoon online course se…meri abhi abhi naukri lagi hai..

RajatM: Ghar ke kaam jaanti ho..khaana bana leti ho

PurviM: jee..maine sab sikha diya hai usse.. Purvi gaana bhi acha gaati hai..Purvi glares at her mom.

RajatM: mujhe toh yeh ladki bahut pasand hai…Rajat tum kya kehte ho? Kuch baat karni ho toh abhi kar lo..baadme ghar jaake complain mat karna…Kyun maine theekh kaha naa..

PurviF: arre iski kya zaroorat hai..Purvi hamari baat kabhi nahi taalegi..

RajatF: bhaisaab ab hamara zamaana kahan raha…aaj kal toh yeh log who kya..haan coffee shop, dating, chatting phir shaadi ke liye haan karte hai….bache do chaar baat kar lenge..aapas me thodi pasand naa pasand samajh lenge toh buraai nahi hai…Kyun Rajat.. Rajat doesn't reply just nods his head.

PurviF: beta …Rajat ko balcony le jaoo…tab tak hum log thodi idhar udhar ki baate kar lenge..

Purvi reluctantly gets up from her seat. Rajat also has no choice now, he walks behind Purvi to their balcony. Its awkward for both of them because there is hardly any privacy. Kids are playing cricket below, an aunty from the opposite building is watching them and loud TV is blaring from the next door neighbor house.

They both remain quiet for two minutes. Rajat finally clears his throat.

Rajat: tumhe kuch puchna hai? Ya batana hai?

Purvi: who…main kuch kehna chahti hoon…meri..meri iske pehli ek sagai toot chuki hai..

Rajat: jaanta hoon..tumhare papa ne aur Dinesh uncle ne pehle hi bataya..aur kuch puchna hai..

Purvi: Nahi…aapko kuch aur puchna hai? Ya batana hai?

Rajat: Nahi..

They both remain silent again. After some time Rajat and his parents take leave and promise to let them know their decision by evening. Dinesh uncle (common friend) calls Purvi's father in the evening and gives the good news that the boy has agreed to marry Purvi. Her parents are happy. Purvi is terrified. She is going to marry a complete stranger and will be living in a totally new city away from her parents. Everything is happening so fast…

Flashback over

…..Her alarm for the morning rings. Purvi shuts it, wipes the sweat off her face and gets up to look at the rising sun outside.

Finally the secret is out..Rajat loved someone else but married Purvi under parental pressure...How will Purvi cope up with this?
