RR through our eyes (Chapter 30)
Mano’s edits are being made and will be posted by
12th March.
It was Rudra who slowly drifted back to
reality. It was hard to tell why he came out of the short deep slumber. Was it
difficult for him to believe what just happened ? Was he afraid that it was all
a dream and wanted to make sure it is for real ? Was it his excitement at
getting his Paro back even if it was for a short time ? Was it the overwhelming
feeling of history repeating itself ? It was hard to tell.
Whatever be the reason he first became
aware of the calmness he felt. The feeling of tranquillity. The feeling of
weightlessness. Moments later he realised who he is. And then he realised that
it was a long time since Rudra felt this kind of peace. Few more moments went
by. And he felt his body sprawled across the bed. And then felt the softness of
Paro’s body under him. He smiled in that half asleep state. To trap Paro
underneath him and to sleep holding her hand – quite some years since it
happened last time. No wonder he had felt so much at ease. He slowly opened his
eyes – hoping that the whole thing is not a dream. And it was not a dream. Far
from it. There she was sleeping – with a look of contentment on her face. He
always liked to watch her sleep. Whether it was when she was sleeping on the
floor in his kurta or when she was hurt in the foot and he had carried her to
the quarters. Whether it was in Jaipur. Or after that every other night. He
always loved to watch her sleep.
As if she was aware of his stare, she stirred in her sleep. Rudra wondered what her first sentence will be. Will she remember that she proposed to him with the Sindoor – again ? Last time she had proposed in front of the audience he had wished she did it in the privacy of a room. He had thrown the Sindoor into the air last time. But this time he made sure he corrected the mistake. Respected her proposal and their love. Will she remember that ? Will she remember that she addressed him as Major Saab. Will she remember all the times when they were united years back ? Or will she be her present self and not remember the past ? Rudra realized that his heart rate has increased suddenly. As if he was waiting for his exam results. Not sure of the outcome.
Her first line was not at all what he
expected. But after hearing them he could not help smiling. It was the same
line which she had used everytime during the last very few days before that
fateful day years back. How could he have forgotten it ? Silly of him.
“Zara Dhruv ko dekhiye. Can you check up
on Dhruv ?” Paro asked him.
A mother’s instinct. Which is in the fore
front at almost all the times. He did not reply. Just kept looking at her with
a smile on his face. After sometime when she did not get any answer she slowly
opened her eyes.
And saw him and his smile.
“He is fine. He is with his Nana and
Nani. In the guest room upstairs.” He decided to tease her. “Do you want me to
go and bring him down ?”
It was then that she noticed their
positions and the state of undress. Though it was not too bright in the room he
could feel her turning red. Reminiscing about what happened between them. She
felt shy. And wrapped her arms around his back and hid her face against his
neck.
He was not ready to let go. “ You did not
answer my question. Do you want me to bring Dhruv down ?”
“No”
“Why ?”
“Because he is fine”
“Achaa....And you?”
“Really ? Just fine ?”
By then she understood he was trying to
make fun of her. She kept quiet. But he was not one to let go.
“Tum Kuch Bol Rahi Thi.........You were
saying something..”
“I feel like I am where I always wanted
to be. With you. It is like a déjà vu feeling you know.” She whispered holding
his face in her hands. And he was lost in her eyes. In the love oozing out of
her face. For him. Just for him.
Suddenly her face became serious.
“Rudra, I have to ask something... It was
my first time but it did not feel like it was ....the first time.....” her
forehead was creased with worry.
“That is because it was not. We were
together so many times before...” he answered without thinking.
“I am being serious Rudra. I know all
about ..........” She pouted.
He knew once she had set her mind on
something there is only one way to distract her. He pulled her closer nuzzling
his nose against her cheek.
“You know all about what ?....”
“I know all..........I ..........My
voice..........”
“What happened to your voice ?” he asked
her fingering her waist chain. The one he never removed.
“My voice..........” she tried again. And
gave up. She knew there was no way she can find her voice let alone voicing her
thoughts.
This time around they both took it
slowly.
·
As different as a drizzling
rain is from a heavy downpour.
·
As different as a fight in
slow motion is from a fast action scene.
·
As different as a melody is
from a foot tapping music.
·
As different as a luxury
cruise is from a speed boat.
Both are beautiful in its own way. And
when they reached their climax Rudra could not help murmuring Paro’s name
against her hair. Luckily she did not hear it. Luck was on his side – he
thought heaving a sigh of relief.
And the alarm woke them up around 4am.
Rudra slid out of the bed after planting a kiss on his wife’s lips saying. “ I
need to go before someone comes barging in “
“Yes. I need to get up too.”
He almost walked till the door. Stopped
and then came back to pull her into an embrace. “ From tonight nobody can
separate us.”
She smiled and returned the hug. “Or
question us”
And that was the last minute of sanity which
they witnessed. Even before Rudra could reach his room many inmates were up.
Lights were switched on and fifteen minutes later everybody including the
children were up. The taxis arrived bringing some of the last minute guests.
The earlier ones were already accommodated in the hotel. By 5am the beautician
and her assistants arrived. And by 6:30 am the priests arrived to perform some
of the initial ceremonies at home. The haveli was swarming with people. And
Rudra and Paro did not know most of them.
Though Tejawat was not in the limelight
for his notorious activities Rudra was not that convinced. There are chances
that he had heard about Paro’s return. With a wedding of this scale it was not
easy to hide things. Rudra did not want to take any chances where Paro was
concerned. He and Aman had arranged a group of security guards lest Tejawat
strikes at the last minute.
The wedding had been planned to be in the
biggest hall in the hotel. Though Rudra was not for such pomp and splendour he
had to agree to the wishes of the Mehras and the elderly Ranawats. And of
course the kids who were so looking forward to the celebrations.
On the day of Shivratri when Paro and
Rudra were supposed to be wedded he committed the mistake of leaving without
Paro. Which resulted in her being dragged unnecessarily into the accusation of
setting fire to Bapusa’s room and what not. Of course Rudra never believed it
even for a minute. And Kakisa and Sumer are changed people now. At least from
outside. But still.......Rudra being Rudra learns from his mistakes fast. He
made sure he left the haveli with Paro in the same car.
The hall was already half full by the
time they all reached. Kakisa had decided to take maximum advantage of the
money Mehras were ready to splurge. She made sure she invited every person she
has ever met in her life. To show off her own status elevation through her
nephew’s wife and connections. In the absence of Rudra’s parents it was Kakusa
and Kakisa who sat in the Mandap as Rudra’s parents. That was a moment of pride
for Kakisa – irrespective of what she truly felt about the situation.
Then the Mehras had invited all their
close friends and business associates. Their close family members from India
and abroad. Both desi log and videshi. Myrah’s friends from college and work.
Even some of the women she had saved from the hell of abuse made it a point to
fly down. The Minister Chachu was there with his coterie. It was a true global
wedding set in India.
Very soon the ceremonies started and the whole hall was vibrating with the mantras and shlokas. Rajeev did Kanyadaan - after applying turmeric paste on Paro’s hand - he extended her hand towards Rudra. With Agni as a witness - Agni created with all right ingredients by the priests themselves. Rudra held Paro’s hand as in Paanigrahan.
Rudra was alert in the middle of all
this. He did not want anything to go wrong this time. Yes he had his trusted
aides around. And also Aman and many friends and colleagues from BSD who were
there as guests but still on the look out for anything out of place. In spite
of all these security measures Rudra was not at ease. Things happened so fast.
He got his Paro back. He could convince her parents. And all is going well. Too
well.
And Rudra is not used to getting anything
in his life that easily. Never on a silver platter like this. So he was quite
apprehensive. And ALERT.
Together they took the seven pheras. Him
holding her hand with love and a longing for a lifetime. Undoing all that he
did the last time.
·
They took the first step to provide for the household, keeping a pure
diet and avoiding those things that might harm them.
·
Second step to develop physical, mental and spiritual powers.
·
Third step to increase wealth by righteous and proper means.
·
Fourth step to acquire knowledge, happiness and harmony by mutual love,
respect and trust.
·
Fifth step so that we may be blessed with strong, virtuous and heroic
children.
·
Sixth step for self-restraint and longevity.
·
Seventh step to be true companions and remain life-long partners by this
wedlock.
And then he forgot everything else. His
focus was just on his beloved Paro. His eyes became moist remembering all that stupid
vachans he had mentioned last time. And
as if those seven ones were not enough he had made an extra one for Paro.
Holding her close, making sure each part of her body was in contact with him he
had said he will never become hers. The thought of putting Paro through such
despicable acts made Rudra cringe even today.
Her eyes were also filled with tears. She
started seeing glimpses of Rudra dragging her around the fire. And saying
something out of anger. She could not relate to those scenes. She had no idea
why she saw such scenes in front of her eyes when he was right there holding
her hand in love and repeating the sacred vachans. Is it a premonition ? Of something
bad which is going to happen ? Or did their paths cross before – maybe in the
previous life ? Or in this life itself ? And she forgot ? How can she forget ?
Him of all people ? She shut her eyes tight wishing those scenes would go away.
She just wanted to cherish this moment. This wedding of theirs. To imprint it
in her mind.
When she opened her eyes she saw that
Rudra was still looking at her with concern. She shrugged off all her ill
feelings. Paro smiled at him and whispered, “No special eighth vachan for me ?”
He was taken aback. He did not know what to answer. Did she cry because she
remembered the last time he took the vachans ? Or is it just the smoke from the
havan ?
When he did not reply she came out with
her statement,” Eighth vachan specially from me to you –Rudra. Whatever happens
in the future I will never ever leave you. I will be with you through thick and
thin. I will always be yours.“
As far as Rudra and Paro were concerned
at that moment in that crowded hall there were just the two of them. Looking at
each other with longing and all the love in the world.
amazing
ReplyDeleteJJ dear, I had thought of filing a Missing person report. Well good to see you back.
ReplyDeleteAnd I know that this entire chapter is written by you. So there will be many sweet words for you, after I finish it reading slowly the second time just like Parud. A soothing melody after a rocking session.
Yesterday again watched P.S. I love you. Such a simple love story which still manages to stir your soul.
Missing Person's report - eh ? Am curious to know how you will describe me in there.
DeleteChalo...at least one person will think of me if I am not posting the chapters LOL
I wrote the chapter a few days back. But Mano was tied up in AD so much (and a little bit or a whole lot in AS's new show and thread...HAHA) Then we decided to post the chapter first and then add the edits tomorrow. So here I am...
I have seen PS I Love You - the one where she keeps getting letters - right ? The effect of the movie I kind of spoilt it myself. Trying to think of it a mystery and looking at options at every juncture. Now you know how less of a romantic I am Cry
Will wait for your comments Reshma...while I try to understand geometric programmingConfused
Hmm... you are right. How will I describe you?
DeleteHow about this if to go by your DP
Arre kacha kacha chhota chhota nimbuda layee do
Arre layido layido laydo
nimbu layido
Ja khet se hariyala nimbuda layido
Need more to think about it? Experts ( Mano, deeps, Ruchi, Mukti, Meens, Lachu, Mira, ...) committee needs to be summoned.
Geometric programming. Good for you. Something is needed for that overthinking and logic brain of yours.
I had to deal with only Simplex and other basic LPP problems.
hi Reshma and JJ !!
DeleteJJ I meet on Twitter but with you it is blink and miss so I need to hold on to you before you disappear !!
lo main aa gaiii ! now going to read chapter and comments ! LOL
Hey, we all missed you cz this chapter was getting delayed. I sure did
DeleteBut didn't want to bother you cz I thought you had exams or something...
JJ, loved the chapter moreso for the first part. The morning after scene had something serene and pure feeling about it. I loved Rudra's calmness as well as his apprehension about what could be in Paro's mind.
ReplyDeleteI always love when a man admires his woman in sleep. Don't ask me why. There is something very very romantic about it.
So true a mother's natural instinct. Always thinking about her child.
So there was no storm after the calm.
Rudra always on alert and always knowing how to distract Paro, turned her doubtful mind to his advantage and we got another love making session. Loved how you compared it with the previous one. Though the second and the fourth cracked me up, what else to expect from that cranky and unromantic brain of yours.
This time there was a grand wedding and you did took the effort to know the nuances of the kanyadan ceremony and the saat pheras. Well will help you in future ( if you are already not married).
While you highlight Rudra's thought process very beautifully and in detail. Paro is not thinking so much these days. She is remembering things and sometimes not remembering things ( like she called him Major Saab), she is seeing things related to her past, is also having some painful memories but she is not delving into any of those. Maybe the celebrations is keeping her mind preoccupied.
Among all these romance and wedding, the secrets of all family members and the past history of the Mehras and Tejavat's revenge have taken a back seat. Hope you will soon address these one by one.
While Rudra could never fulfil the eight vachan rest alone any vachan that he took earlier, Paro's eight vachan just seals the deal for these two soulmates.
In between what happened to Rohit. Is he there for the marriage? And what happened to Rudra's case. I thought that was a top priority case with a minister's daughter involved.
Now that the marriage has taken place. What next? Will Rudra make an effort for her to remember their past or will Paro herself recover her memories, Will the Mehra's spill the secret of Paro and Myrah's connection, Will Geetanjali will try to find out Poonam's secret ?, will the mole in the family harm Paro on realising it is her? What will Tejavat do to take his revenge? And yes will Rudra succeed in solving the kidnapping girls mystery?
Janane ke liye padhte rahiya Rangrasiya ki Kahani, JJ ke jubani
Bacche Ki Jaan Le Logi Kya ? So many questions .......Oops. Ek Chapter Mein - how much can I include all the answers ? And I want to always end the chapter with a little bit of suspense. How can I pour out everything at the same time ?
DeleteRudra could not focus on the missing girl's case when he is under so much "Ahem" tension. Let him enjoy the moment and then we will go back.
Second and fourth lines made you laugh ? Good ......Come to think of it I like all the eight I mentioned. Each has its own beauty. The rains, the fights, the music and the sea transports. Beauty is in our eyes or rather in our minds. When I am happy I think everything around looks awesome - from the crow to the curtain to the sky to the people around. When I am in a foul mood (which is not so often luckily) everything looks ugly..........Am I making sense ?
I had to google to get those details about the wedding.......My view is like Rudra's. What matters at the end is Main Tu Hamesha. The rest is for the survival and support of the society. I will not talk further on the subject lest it becomes clearer to others how unromantic I am LOL
Paro is overwhelmed by all that is happening. Though I have not met anybody with amnesia I have met many with memory loss due to old age. For the listener and observer - it just does not provide any logic. Why they remember some things alone. Why they remember some incidents at a given time 't' and then forget all about it at 't+10' minutes. It is very very difficult to understand. I assumed amnesia will be similar. Maybe I am wrong
Why are you all behind some impending storm or Tejawat (like Betti) ? Why can't you all allow Rudy Boy to enjoy the present ? Please ........requesting on behalf of Major Rudra Pratap Ranawat.
I loved the last line..........Thank you.
And heartfelt thanks for the questionnaire.Clap Keep them coming in case I forget to address a few I can refer to this.
PS: Thank you for the sweet words. LOL
JJ lest you forget. You are a spirit of cumulative age 80 years. You are neither a bacchha nor you have a jaan which I can take.
DeleteTo sum up a long story short - BEAUTY LIES IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER. Am I making sense?
And I am not asking you the questions. These are my thought process and doubts which I want you to clear one by one. You are a very forgetful person. Budhape ka aasar hai. You also forget that you are writign RR tidbits. So I am doing the job of reminding you. hard job but some one has to do it.
See I am a DDLJ and HAHK fan. I am not after the storm and neither do I want it badly. But the storm you have stirred you do have to quiet it. I am curious how will you do it.
You are biased towards Rudra. Though I am doubtful about your gender, one thing I am sure about is your preferences. You have a SHAUKEEN type crush on a man 1/4th your age. Doesn't suit you.
I love it when my long comments get long replies. Keep them coming.
Yes I am a forgetful person. Except for a thing or two - I am giving out many pertinent details about my thinking process through the replies... Need to be careful going forward.
DeleteYes Yes - forgot again about Tidbits. But now not much time for that...Will try next week. So please keep reminding this old spirit
What does Shaukeen mean in English ? Shauk is hobby - right ? And please Rudra is 35 now if I am right. And I am 80. No way it is 4 times...Come on...I am not that old...
Aandhiii has to start so that I can quiet it...
JJ do I come in your supporter or opposer? Better to know where one stands.
DeleteYou have triggered the storm and have left us hanging with your secrets and the pending storm.
So dil maange more toh banta hai na boss
Oh I will let you know as soon as I come to know. Bholebaba Wala promise
DeleteJJ do you know Mahabharat. Well then you are Yudhishtir - a person who neither lies but never tells the truth also.
DeleteThis "NARO WA KUNJARO" attitude will take you long ahead.
loved the chapterClap
ReplyDeleteloved how you put the eight vachanBig smile
Thanks Lily. Parud should always have something special - right ?
DeleteTotally agree and I love it the way you make it special
DeleteDear JJ...
ReplyDeleteLike I said to you earlier, this is an awesome chapter ... my biggest reason for saying so is because Rudra got Paro back !! This had been my wish all along the time when RR 2.0 was running.
It is like homecoming ... I just could not wrap my head around Rudra- Myrah ..Dead.
The chapter has amazing flow of emotions and it touches your heart with it's sheer simplicity. I have loved this FF so far and will wait alongside with you for more.
Yeah I understand what you are saying. Parud together is what we missed in the serial. Instead they showed Rudra marrying somebody else. How can Rudra marry another person ? Huh...........
DeleteThanks Ruchi. Glad you liked it. Yes we did discuss this chapter already in detail :-)
hey !!! And the best part was the 8th vow from Paro to Rudra !!! I am total latto over this part! You added your own charm to it ...
DeleteVery nice update, JJ ... there was a very serene and 'shaant' feel to the morning scene, which I liked. Paro's first thought was for Dhruv ... such a natural instinct of any mother!
ReplyDeleteAnd I heaved a sigh of relief that they were safely married. LOL Loved your description of the wedding and the vachans.
So we know Rudra's thoughts ... but Paro's thoughts are still a mystery. She is getting flashes of memory, but not enough to question them? Liked the last touch ... this time it is Paro who makes the eighth vow. Embarrassed
Thanks Diya. Glad you liked it. I can only write "Shaant" scenes......or maybe some naughty scenes. Passionate ones are so difficult to write !!
DeleteYes motherly instinct - I have heard someone saying that a woman is a wife only till she becomes a mother. After that the baby is the first priority and some men hate that.......Whatever it be - mothers are mothers.LOL
Yes finally they got married. At least till the Sindoor part. Abhi Mangal sutra baaki hai na ?
Just like I wrote to Reshma - Paro's thoughts are muddled right now. And we will have lot of time later to go through it I hope.Big smile
Yes I always wanted Paro to undo the eighth vow - in a good way....Glad you liked it
Beautiful! this was perfect. rudra and paro are finally together. i'm sure the memory flashes are going to increase with time - paro will figure it out soon...
ReplyDeletelook forward to reading more!
-FleurDeJuillet
Thanks dear. Glad you thought it was perfect. And thanks for being a regular reader of the blog.
DeleteThe hell with rest
ReplyDeleteThey are finally married again
For now don't give damn about tejawat
The truth
Their past
All that matters is them
Just them together again
After so long
And this is the beet thing that happened
Beats their last marriage
Where he ruined things
Being mean and cruel
Now just opposite
She is remembering it seems
Good or bad only time shall tell
Hope its for good
Eventually she will recall it all
Or they will have to tell her
He missed being so close to her
She doesn't know it isn't her first time
How can it be
She was his wife before
But he has gotta stop spilling the beans well at least before time
Let's confer with doc first
But now they are married
Fllbig fat Indian wedding
With no hate no stupid vachans
Just being together
Oh my she saw their last marriage
Well seems she is closer to truth than ever
This went off without hitch
Which is something
But there is still lots to worry about
Hi Kritika,
DeleteThanks dear. You have written down your thought process so well. While reading how do you capture them as well ? Hats off
Glad you loved it. And you are right. All that matters at the end is they are together....
JJ
ReplyDeleteThat was beautiful. You recently said you cannot write romantic scenes...
Then what was that? Your description of 'the morning after'(or was it still night) and their 'second' time was lovely Heart
The whole episode was beatific actually
We readers could feel the contentment and bliss Parud felt, and that's the mark of good writing Thumbs Up
Their first time was written by Sonia and their second time you didn't need anyone's help? You have come a long way baby Big smile
Everything else was beautifully described too, the wedding ceremony, the Saat pheres...
I only learned their meaning from this chapter. So Thank you
I am trying to imagine what MM will do with this
Eagerly waiting for her edits
Rudra has now let his guard down, he is lost in Paro
Now is the time for Teju to strike, right?
I've been saying this after every update
Hi dear,
DeleteSuch sweet words for me. Thank you . Thank you... I just wrote to Diya that I can write some Shaant moments and naughty moments. But passionate ones ? Very difficult to write without making it sound vulgar. And that is where Sonia excels. Hope she reads this chapter of mine...
Mano is really busy. And a perfectionist..Hope she can complete the edits today. I am also waiting for the same. I was also not sure of what the vachans meant. My attitude is more like Major Saab... Google helped me out eventually...
Why are you after Rudra's peace of mind ? You want Teju fast. Actually after every chapter. And Reshma wants the storm. Yeh Kya Ho Raha Hai ? Why can't you feel happy for Rudra for the time being ? LOL
To be continued after the edits are added...
Amazing
ReplyDeleteHi JJ,
ReplyDeleteThat was beautiful. :)
Loved the chapter, but I loved the eighth vachan the most. :)
Brought back some sad and then some special "mangalsutra" in the snow moments. :)
Take care!!
Kerrie
Thank you Kerrie. Parud should always have one extra - vachan I mean. HAHA
DeleteGlad you liked it. BTW, you are quite quiet nowadays. Hectic AD ?
Thanks JJ and Mano
DeleteNice edits. They add a nice visual to the events.
Finally!! Jackal I rally thought you fell off the edge of our earth and landed on some other new planet and made new alien friends there and forgot about your old life here...where we're you wandering off till now spritji?!!,
ReplyDeleteGlad you could update so soon.Angry
Read it and loved it fully. You do kow how i love your rr2.0 na? It keeps my rr dreams intact even now. Loved how beautifully you wrote aout the aftermath of the big act. In fact i had loved the way it was shown in real rr too ,the scene after the big event in he barn.
But what's brewing in that fertile mind of yours...jackal? Spill now! Evrything going so well with Parud...I have a bad premonition that you are going to give us all one big jhatka soon.bring it on.
Hey ruchi,reshma,mukhti and all!
What's up with all?
I know it's dead here these days na? Mano has changed her adda to greener and more active pastures I see, taking along her gang with her. Miss her collages terribly.
These exams are killing me. I don't think I prepared this much even for my own exams really. I can't wait for them to end. My son seems least bothered though...I say exams!!!! And he says yeah, I know so where's my hot wheels red wala car!!!Confused
I am watching Ganga and begusarai too on and off.. Liking the little girl n as of now story seems to have potential...begusarai ...like all the actors ..well maybe not the punmy girl... I would have preferred someone more feminine and delicate..more good looking ..yeah I know I am shallow...but she seems to be dong decent acting. Like the Casanova guy..he is growing n me really.
Are you girls in those forums? Do let me know if you do ...will join you there. Missing you all.
Missing Sanish and their acting on my tv. By the way when is Sanaya's performance? Will it air on tv?
Sarcasm at its best - eh ? I updated soon.... Hmmmmmmmmmm...
DeleteWaise the whole house was Ulta Pulta. Renovation.......not that it is going to make any great difference after a while. All these exterior modifications one does not even see after a couple of months. And so much of incovenience one has to go through for the sake of it. Anyway......
You loved the aftermath of the big act. For me a big wave has to be followed by multiple medium waves and then smaller waves etc. So one big wave cannot just quieten down everything - right ? Anyway you should know
Okay - Reshma wants storm. Betti wants Teju. You want Jhatka...okay okay.....got it.
Will write separately about the rest of the post
JJ,
ReplyDeleteAwesome & brilliant chapter. Parud are back together!!!! You know what? You once said that you cannot write a romance, but the morning after they spend the night together was so sweet. It was very well described; Rudra looking at sleeping Paro, Paro’s shyness….just perfect! Perhaps you will be in the future The Old Spirit of Romance?
I was a little bit worried how you would get Paro to forget that this was not her first time with Rudra. But in the end I didn’t pay it any attention to myself, because the whole “bed scene” was so well and fluently written.
Paro called him Major Saab, asked him to check up on Dhruv. Hmmm….Psychological stress and sensitive personality may predispose to amnesia. And she has been stressed again because of the wedding. Will this stress bring some of her memories back? Little by little… Often memories that are closer to the time of injury/tragic moment are more difficult to remember and therefore, bad memories returns last, it at all. So I don’t expect her to remember yet about her past.
Now they are married! I am so happy! Seven pheras – I loved that you explained them. I would not know without details. Thank you! I t was beautiful ceremony and beautifully written too.
And now would be a good time to reveal some secrets. What is the connection between Mehra’s family – Paro – Myrah? When Poonam speaks with Geetanjali? And the Ranawat family – all is probably not as it seems, even in the Ranawat family. Everyone has their own secrets - whose secret is revealed first? Can’t wait.
By the way, where is Tejawat? Planning something against Rudra?
Great work. Continue soon!
ps. Mano – great edits!!!!
Hi Mira, Thank you dear for such a long comment. Am glad you loved it. A few of you were so concerned about Paro realising that it is not the first time. There is no way Rudra could have explained it. What else could I resort to ? HAHA
DeleteSeven Pheras - I also googled and found the easiest one to understand ....
Ah secrets......“I thought about how there are two types of secrets: the kind you want to keep in, and the kind you don't dare to let out.” ― Ally Carter, Don't Judge a Girl by Her Cover
Finally u updated JJ :) I perfectly understand ur busy AD and glad u r still going strong with the story..
ReplyDeleteThank you for showing the beautiful morning unlike the originals where they acted like siblings after the deed :(..either u researched or experience speaks :)))
As different as a smooth vanilla ice-cream from a hot cocoa ….:)
I loved Paro's question about Dhruv…true about mothers instinct…showed JJ's uniqueness "claps"
So the marriage is done to my relief without any disturbances and I absolutely loved the eight vachan…again JJ's instinct…bravo
And don't you think the chapter is very small comparatively or I felt it that way?! Better make the next chapter longer with some secrets out Spirit ji…my patience is wearing out :))))
Mano Mano Mano….no wonder u took longer for this update…this edit is mind-blowing…I mean how could u possibly get those scenes synced so perfectly…hats off dear…
JJ u definitely need to do something special for Mano for all her hardwork…(How about a dedicated OS just for her)..She totally deserves it… :)
Overall a nice warm update….
Yep finally. Blame Mano for the max part of the delay. She was drooling over AS.
DeleteBeautiful morning is from experience in one of my lives.
I like that vanilla ice cream and hot cocoa.... Or in Indian context Hot GUlab Jamun with vanilla ice cream
I thought any mother will think of the child first thing in the morning. Glad all mothers out there are agreeing
Parud had to mirror the eighth vachan. Nope dear. Chapter is not short. It was the normal length I thought.
Mano is a wonderkid. No doubt. But I am not going to write anything for her. To get edits for that will be next to impossible.
JJ you are back with beautiful update. Thoroughly enjoyed. Paro's motherly instincts, voice hubad dabad and shyness .... everything perfect. The memory flashes are interesting. Heart warming eighth vachan from Paro... of course she has to surprise me every time.
ReplyDeleteMano... Beautiful edits... you are outdoing yourself. Liked Sanaya's Chanchan pic.
Nice to see you Sush. Glad you liked it. And yes it is Chanchan's picture. I wanted Paro to look different. And got this when I googled Sanaya wedding dress. All the hard work was done by Mano.........
DeleteNice chapter JJ... Loved the way you wrote the vachan taking.. Poor Paro.. Getting confused because of the flashbacks..
ReplyDeleteSo wat next..?
Thank you dear for liking it. What next ? When I was talking about everything other than Parud romance everybody wanted romance.
DeleteNow when I am focusing on romance everyone wants secrets /Tejawat /storm /Jhatka (check out the comments in the blog !!)
I guess I can never satisfy the readers LOLLOL
Fantastic update JJ...you kept us waiting for a while ,didnt uWink.
ReplyDeleteFeels like the calm before the stormSmile.Loved the calm and peaceful feeling Rudra had after their consummation...Paro is beginning to get glimpses...hmmm...what is she going to make of it...
One small question...Rudra did whisper Paro's name once...he thinks she did not hear, but did she...will this create problems going forward...
Yeah was quite busy Varshu with renovation.
DeleteGlad you liked it.
You too waiting for the storm ? Hai Bhagwan what is happening to all these Parud fans ?
Paro's memory is a mystery to me. Also her hearing ability. So I have no clue whether she heard her name and whether she remembers it Big smile
PS: Glad you noticed it. Nobody else did. HAHA
I had high expectations for MM's edit and she didn't disappoint...
ReplyDeleteThe wedding scene where Parud are lovingly looking at each other was especially sweet...
I was going thru some old threads in RR Forum recently...
One of the thread was about Forumwasis profession and Mano mentioned she is a Graphic designer...
So now I know how her edits are so professional and pretty Star
Lucky you JJ Big smile
Yes Betti I agree 100% with you. I am lucky to have found Mano. ANd also to strike a deal that she will make edits exclusively for the blog. Strategic me - right ?
DeleteYes the wedding scene I found to be so good. I wanted Paro to look different. And when I googled Sanaya wedding dress this also came up. Found that it is from Chanchan. Then Mano put in lots of effort to go through that episode and the way she has merged it with Rudra's - just superb
Words cannot do justice to the beauty of that edit.
No Question Mano's edits and your writing is bringing the awesome combo of this story
ReplyDeleteDhanyavaad
DeleteMano, terrific work once again.Clap...How do u do it?...u outdo urself every single time...Kollai azhagu.
ReplyDeleteAwesome edits Mano, loved them...by the way where are the sanaya bride ones from? I don't remember seeing them in RR or ipk? Rudra in that white kurta and blue kurta was just sigh!!!
ReplyDeleteFrom Chanchan dear.
DeleteWhoa the morning after was so sweet
ReplyDeleteHmmm she is remembering
Thank you Seeta. I hope she remembers too
Deleteomg.. This is fantastic❤️beautifully written.. I was having images in my mind while reading this chapter! Thumbs up! I❤️it��
ReplyDeleteWoW. That is a great compliment. Thank you dear.
DeleteTotally Love it

Thanks Alicia.

ReplyDeleteGlad you loved it
DeleteThank you for a lovely chapter .
ReplyDeleteAaya aaya update aayaaa... Feeling so relieved after getting an update after a lllooonnnggg time... Just awesome...
ReplyDelete
DeleteYou are also at peace just like Rudra ? Thanks for liking the chapter.
Hello JJ,
ReplyDeleteI loved how described Rudra felt being at peace after so many years & then nervous to know will Paro remember anything now. Paro first reaction.. asking about DhruvSmile and Rudra's response to it were sweet.
finally they got married and i liked how this time you made Paro to make the eigth vachan of commitment of lifeWink.
loved the edits by mano and i am surprised how she made them..! edits are beautifully collaborated.
thankyou for updating and for the pm
Kitne Chapter lines The ? 500 Janaaab
DeleteKitne Pree ke comments mein ? 5
Bahuuut Na Insaafi Hai
Glad you loved the chapter dear.
Sardar bhool hogai.. (oohh i mean JanaabTongue)
DeleteAglibar ke liye kagaj kalam taiyar rahegi,
Adyaae ke Samiksha ke liye.
Lovely update.
ReplyDeleteUnknowingly Myra is saying things which Paro would have said.
Lovely start to a great marriage. Just like Rudr I too am anxious as things are going very smoothly.
For a moment when Paro talks about the eight vachan I thought that may be she did get back her memory. Well wishful thinking.
Thank you dear. Glad you liked it. At least you are wishing for good things unlike some here waiting for the storm
DeleteI just read now feel so amazing...great work dear...looking forward to next part...thank u so much dear god blessed u :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for reading and commenting
DeleteLovely to have our Parud back!
ReplyDeleteYeah sure it is. Glad you liked it
DeleteWow JJ that was a great read!I was having all these cruel thoughts about something terrible happening so I read the update.' jaldi,jaldi,jaldi,'...with bated breath & my heartbeat going all ' dhak, dhak,dhak'...& it almost stopped beating when Rudra whispered ' Paro ' ... but thank God ... no harm done ...do you know JJ, my poor heart had almost stopped beating ? What if I had died JJ ?
ReplyDeleteThen once I knew all is well ...more than well Infact ...I read it the second time, savouring every bit of it...it was like my favourite vanilla ice cream slowly melting on my brownie till the right consistency , then me digging my spoon in it & relishing it slowly ,slurping, chewing the walnuts which I never forget to add in plenty in them & then relishing the taste starting from my tongue to right upto my stomach...Need I say again HOW perfect your update was
. From essaying beautiful night after ( usually it's morning after but I loved you made it night after ) to portraying Rudra's naughty side through effective dialouges like " Do you want me to bring him here "...naughty naughty... everything was just perfect ...I loveddd the way he teased Paro about bringing Dhruv down... it had a magic touch, something very very naughty ... I guess I can call it " Rudra flavour " ... oh yes, you took care of the virginity part as well...& it was dodged so well by our Major Saab..hehe... loved it... perfectly in his style... good job done my dear JJ.
BTW my curiosity increase with each update... you have mastered the art of leaving us on tenther hooks at the end of each chapter ... Pl update faster this time ...last time you were busy with renovations in your house so we understood the delay but we are not going to be this understanding all the time ... we need a fast update this time around...bas bol diya...
Mano, my dear dear Mano your edits were breathtakingly beautiful... they were seamlessly done & incorporated perfectly...Ashish in the white achkan has turned my fangirl mode on... this & the black coat that he wore at the Jaipur ball make him look the hottest & so does the white kurta... heck yaar, he looks dashing in anything ...and Sanaya is looking stunning , absoulutly stunning in that wedding outfit... where did you dig that from?... ..I wish I could write more but I am completely brain fried & brain dead after a horribly long day with loads of guests so I will stop here...
DeleteYou know what Navya ? If you can write such a detailed comment on what you felt and how you felt while reading the chapter - you can very well write a fan fiction. You should try to start with an OS at least.
Coming to the comment itself. Why would I want one of my FF supporters (as opposed to many who are against it here HAHA ) to die ? Will never want anything to happen to you. Just imagine first time it was the heat of the passion and Rudra forgot to call out Paro's name. Fair enough. But second time it has to let it slip. Yes at least for now fate is on his side. So he escaped. Sigh of relief...
The only person to whom Rudra showed his naughty side was to Paro. Unfortunately she made him say SORRY for it and we never could find that naughty Rudra again. Toh FF Mein Hi Sahi.
Many of you are melting reading Rudra's escapades. Vanilla ice cream, hot chocolate, brownie...Hmmm...what else ?
Next chapter - likhna hai. This weekend is quite busy. Thought I could write it today but alas...After I write Mano has to make the edits...Time toh lagega hi. Maybe I should just take a break - write all the chapters , get all the edtis and then start posting like clock work. What is your view ?
Yes Mano's edits are all the desserts combined. Drool worthy indeed. That is Sanaya from Chanchan. I have never seen it before. Found it while googling for Sanaya wedding dress. Quite nice isn't it ?
People here want different things - storm/jhatka/Teju/secrets...what do you want ? A fast update - Bas ?
Thank you for such great comments.
Me...writting an OS ?? OMG ! Thanks for the compliment JJ but I am not even ' salt on a peanut ' when it comes to writting...
DeleteThe selfish side of me wants a quick and fast update but the considerate side of me understands your situation & is asking me to be patient...
Oh no..no...a big NO to your suggestion of taking a break...Yeh nahi chalega, bilkul nahi chalega...we want regular updates...I promise I am going to work on the ' considerate & patient ' side of me & not bother you with constant rants of quick updates...One update a week is enough...
It was awesome update
ReplyDeleteLoved it

ReplyDeleteOmg omg Parud are married. Am so happy and excited while reading this update JJ
ReplyDeleteIt was an amazing chapter and loved the edits by Mano as usual and the writing as well.
Loved the first part and Paro shy as always and Rudra on teasing mode.
Hmm marriage on a grand level cos the Mehras will want it on a grandeur way and of course Kakisa has to take advantage of this.
Finally Parud married and cant wait to read how Paro regains her memory back
Thanks for the pm JJ and I commented here instead of in the blog

The concept of eight Vachan is cuteClap
ReplyDeleteThnx for the PM.
Yup it was a lovely chapter. Starting with light Romance after Sonias hot one. Hehehe... I loved paros motherly instinct... And most of all wat I loved in d chapter is rudras apprehensivenes. Even after he is gona get Paro, he was not willing 2 accept that evrythng is going well, infact too well... Coz he never get things so easily... Dat was realy touching n true... I jus loved it... And also 8th vachan from paro 2 rudra was awsome... It was reverse of the 1st one :-). Anyways I hope nothing goes wrong in d nxt episode... Even though I m also apprehensive why evrythng goin soo welll hehehee...
ReplyDeleteTouchwood...superb work JJ...
