ARJUN vs ZAHEER

[Greenwood]

Update 121




Scene – Mehendi ki Subah

Subah ghar ke andar ek nayi roshni si chhayi hui hai. Sab log tayyariyon me lage hue hain.
Drawing room me aunties cushion par baith kar mehendi cone banwa rahi hain, kitchen me mithaiyon ki khushboo aa rahi hai, aur terrace par lights aur flowers ki decoration ho rahi hai.

Shanu ko cousins ne ghair rakha hai, use halke halke nakhre kara rahe hain – kabhi dupatta set karna, kabhi lipstick ka shade check karna. Shanu sharma kar muskaan deti hai, lekin andar se nervous hai.

Dusri taraf Zaheer bhi drawing room me bethe mehmaanon ki baatein sun raha hai. Lekin uski aankhein baar-baar Baba Azhar aur Pratap ki taraf ja rahi hoti hain. Dono ek side baith kar abhi bhi shaam ki us baat par gaur kar rahe hain jo Zaheer ne terrace par ki thi.

Camera close-up – Azhar ki aankhon me soch, Pratap ke chehre par ek fikrmand khamoshi. Dono ek dusre se kuch keh nahi pa rahe, lekin clearly unke mann me Zaheer ki baat ghoom rahi hai.

Scene – Mehendi ki Shaam

Shaam hoti hai. Ghar chandni aur rang-birangi lights se saja hai. Courtyard me stage banaya gaya hai jahan Shanu ki mehendi shuru hone wali hai. Dholki ki thaap, auratien gana ga rahi hain, cousins dance kar rahe hain.

Shanu ko beech me kursi par bithaya jata hai. Uske haath me mehendi lagne lagti hai, aur sab uska naam lekar gaane gunguna rahe hote hain. Shanu sharma kar nazrein jhuka leti hai.

Zaheer side me khada hai, aankhon se sab observe kar raha hai. Uski nazar ek pal ke liye Arjun par jaati hai – Arjun mehmaanon ko sambhalne me busy hai, lekin uska chehra abhi bhi thoda udaas hai. Saaf lagta hai ki dil me kuch dabaya hua hai. Ammu paas hi khadi sabko chai serve kar rahi hoti hai, aur baar-baar Arjun ki taraf chhupke dekh leti hai.

Camera shift – Pratap aur Azhar, dono side me baith kar mehfil dekh rahe hain. Ek dusre ke nazar milate hi dono ke mann me wahi raat wali baat ghoom jaati hai. Abhi unhone faisla nahi liya hai, lekin clearly tension chal rahi hai.

Background me shor-sharaba, gaane, dance… aur is shaam ki mehfil ke beech ek an-jaane faisle ka bojh dono baap ke dil par.

Scene – Mehendi ki Sham: Asma ka Performance

Shaam ka waqt hai, courtyard aur stage rang-birangi lights, fairy lights aur fresh flowers se sajaye gaye hain. Dholki ki thaap puri mehfil me gunj rahi hai.

Asma, apni saheliyon ke saath stage par aati hai. Uska outfit bright yellow aur pink lehenga, jisme zari aur mirror work chamak rahi hai. Hair loosely braid me hai, aur aankhon me kajal aur highlighter se sparkle hai.

Song start hota hai – ek upbeat Punjabi track. Asma ki body language confident aur playful, steps perfectly synchronized. Uski grace aur lachak sabki nazar khinch leti hai. Stage ke dono side mehfil ke log applaud karte hain, aur cousins hansi-masti me dance karte hain.

Vicky, thodi door khada, ladko ki bhid se usko dekh raha hai. Uski aankhen Asma par tiki hui hain, heartbeats tez ho gayi, aur thoda nervous sa ho gaya. Uske liye yeh pehla pal hai jab Asma ka full energy performance uske saamne ho raha hai.

Camera close-up – Asma ki aankhon me joy aur excitement, smile me confidence, aur hands ki movements aur footwork itni natural ki audience mesmerized ho jati hai.

Asma ke dance ke beech, crowd cheering aur applause, aur Vicky ka stunned expression, jo ye samajh nahi pa raha ki kaise ek pal me sab kuch feel kar raha hai.

Performance ke end me Asma pose le kar smile deti hai, aur stage se utarti hai. Crowd standing ovation deta hai, aur Vicky apni excitement control nahi kar pa raha – heart thoda tez dhadak raha hai, aur uske mann me ek crush ki feeling slowly jag rahi hai.

Scene – Ammu ka Dance Performance


Shaam ka mahaul aur bhi lively ho gaya hai, fairy lights aur rangoli ke saath stage aur courtyard fully decorated hain. Background me soft dholki aur folk instrumental mix chal rahi hai.

Ammu, apne green-golden lehenga me stage par aati hai. Lehenga ki soft flow aur mirror work stage lights me chamak rahi hai. Hair loose waves me, aur makeup simple but glowing.

Jaise hi music start hota hai, Ammu ki body language confident aur graceful, par saath me subtle shy glances Arjun ki taraf bhi.

Arjun, stage ke side me khada, nazre thodi der se neeche karta hai, apni emotions control karne ki koshish me. Zaheer, Arjun ke pas, sab observe kar raha hai – Ammu ke har smile aur graceful move pe uska expression slightly confused aur impressed lag raha hai.

Pratap aur Azhar, side me, Zaheer ko observe karte hue ek dusre ki taraf dekhte hain – dono ko lag raha hai ki Zaheer ke emotions clearly visible hain.

Ammu ka performance mesmerizing hai – stage ke har angle se crowd ka attention sirf us par. Uski aankhein, smile aur subtle hand gestures sabka dil jeet lete hain.

Dance ke end me, Ammu final pose le kar smile deti hai, aur poora auditorium cheer karta hai. Arjun ek moment ke liye aankhen band karke sigh karta hai, phir nazre neeche kar leta hai. Zaheer, uski reactions dekh kar, slightly amused aur curious lagta hai.

Scene – Shanu ka Dance Performance (Husband ke liye)

Shaam ka mahaul ab aur bhi festive ho chuka hai. Stage aur courtyard lights se chamak rahe hain, aur soft floral decorations ke beech dholki aur harmonium ki melodious beats chal rahi hain.

Shanu stage par aati hai, pastel pink lehenga me, jisme delicate embroidery aur soft dupatta gracefully flow kar raha hai. Hair braided with flowers, aur minimalistic makeup – simplicity aur elegance ka perfect mix.

Uski body language confident aur poise se bhari, lekin uski aankhon me slight nervousness aur excitement hai – ye zaheer ke liye hai.

Jaise hi music start hota hai, Shanu apne movements me soft elegance aur playful charm mix karti hai, har step me zaheer ko notice karne ki choti choti cues – glances aur subtle smile.

Zaheer, stage ke side me khada, pehle thoda hesitant hai, phir gradually uski aankhon me spark aata hai, jaise ki uske liye hi ye performance hai. Uska chest thoda tight feel hota hai, aur heartbeats tez ho jati hai.

Arjun aur Ammu, side me observe karte hue, ek dusre ki taraf muskurate hain, jaise ki ye moment zaheer aur shanu ke liye perfect ho.

Audience: staff, dost aur relatives, sab mesmerized – shor sharaba, cheers aur claps har step ke saath.

Shanu ka performance emotional yet elegant, aur final pose me wo zaheer ki taraf subtle wink aur smile deti hai. Zaheer ek moment ke liye speechless ho jata hai, phir applause me include ho jata hai, apni excitement aur pride control karne ki koshish karte hue.

Scene – Zaheer ka Emotional Performance (Final Version)


Shaam ka mahaul mehandi function ka aur bhi festive aur emotional ho chuka hai. Stage lights me softly glow kar rahi hain, courtyard me sab log apne seats par baithe, aur har taraf anticipation ka mahaul hai.

Sab performances chal rahi hain, par Zaheer thoda sharma aur hesitant lag raha hai. Shanu apni saheliyon ke saath stage ke side me khadi hai aur softly haath pakad kar Zaheer ko khinch kar stage ke center tak le aati hai.

Zaheer ek steady look Shanu ki taraf dalta hai – jisme thodi hesitation, thodi emotion aur thodi determination hai.

Fir wo microphone uthata hai, sabki taraf nazar dalta hai. Audience me hush ho jata hai, sab wait kar rahe hain ki Zaheer kya pesh karne wala hai.

Zaheer emotional speech shuru karta hai:
"Main apne yaar, apne dost, apne bachpan ke sathi Arjun ke liye bol raha hoon… Humare bich jo bhi hua, wo sab galatfahmi thi. Par mere dil me kabhi bhi uske liye pyaar kam nahi hua… aur main chahta hoon ki sab samjhein, kitna pyaar aur respect maine hamesha rakha hai…"

Sabki aankhon me aansu aa jate hain, kuch staff aur relatives bhi emotional ho jate hain. Shanu ki aankhen bhi blink kar rahi hoti hain, Zaheer ki taraf focused aur proud.

Fir Zaheer apna gana shuru karta hai – Arijit Singh wala “Tera Yaar Hoon Main”.

Camera Zooms:

Shanu – aankhon me aansu, smile ke saath emotional

Ammu – proud aur emotional glance towards Arjun

Arjun – surprise, guilt aur pride mix expression

Asma – eyes glistening, emotional

Vicky – shy smile, heart thoda faster

Jaise hi gana khatm hota hai, Zaheer ek confident step Arjun ke paas badhata hai, stage ke center se side me aata hai, aur Arjun ko ek glance dekar smile karta hai, jisme sab kuch – respect, emotion, aur friendship ka acknowledgement hai.

Scene – Emotional Closure & Baraat Announcement


Location: Mehandi function ka courtyard, fairy lights aur soft music ka backdrop, raat ke pehle halka chandni ka glow

Zaheer ka gana khatam hota hai. Stage par halki si khamoshi chhati hai. Zaheer ek deep breath leta hai aur apni nazar Azhar aur Pratap par dalta hai.

Azhar aur Pratap ek dusre ko dekhte hain. Unki aankhon me garv aur samajh ki chamak hai. Ab wo ready hain apna faisla express karne ke liye.

Azhar dheere se Arjun ke paas aata hai aur bolta hai:
Arjun… tu hum sab ke liye apni feelings chhupa raha tha. Are pagal… humein sab pata hai ki tu Ammu ko kitna chahta hai.

Arjun aankhen bhari, par expression me guilt aur relief mix hai.

Pratap aage badhta hai aur gently Arjun ka haath pakadta hai:
… tu apni dosti ko aur daag nahi dena chahta tha, isliye apni feelings chupayi… hum samajh gaye hain, beta.

Shanu stage ke side se apni aankhen bhari, arjun ko dekhti hai:
Arjun… tu hamesha mere liye tha, har baar har jagah... Meri protection meri khushiya sabke liye... Pagal mere liye tu apni khushiyo ko kurbaan kar raha tha.

Zaheer halki si smile ke saath Shanu ki taraf dekhta hai, aankhen uski aankhon me milti hain:
Aur main hamesha… hamesha tere saath hoon… meri dost aur ab… mera zindagi ki  partner.

Arjun Ammu ki taraf dekhta hai, aankhen thodi laal aur emotion se bhari. Ammu bhi Arjun ko ek soft smile ke saath dekhti hai:
Arjun… bas yehi chahti hoon ki tu khush rahe… aur hum dono saath ho…

Asma peeche se:
Arjun bhaiya Zaheer bhai… aaj hum sirf witnesses nahi, hum family hain… aur yeh moments hamesha yaad rahenge.

Madhu muskurate hue:
Beta… aaj tum dono ne sabke liye sabse badi proof di ki sachai aur pyaar kabhi haar nahi sakta.

Pratap stage ke center par aata hai, dramatic pause leta hai:
Aur ab… kal sirf ek… nahi… do baarat ayegi!

Audience me cheer aur hooting fail jati hai. Fairy lights aur decorations me aur sparkle aata hai.

Zaheer apni Shanu ka haath pakad kar khada hota hai, aankhen khushi se chamak rahi hoti hain.
Arjun Ammu ke paas jaakar uske haath le leta hai, aankhen unki aankhon se milti hain, dono ke chehre par relief aur happiness ka expression.

Shanu, Ammu, Arjun, Zaheer, Asma, Madhu, Azhar, Pratap – sab ek saath emotional closure feel karte hain.

Scene end hota hai, courtyard me hooting aur clapping ke saath, fairy lights aur rasm ka poora magic reflect karta hai, jaise ek perfect happy ending ka prelude ho.

Shadi ka din tha, pura ghar sajawat aur rangon se jagmaga raha tha. Har kone me tayyari ka shor, log ek dusre ke saath baatein kar rahe the, hans rahe the, aur khushi ka mahaul tha.

Ammu aur Shanu apne room me tayar ho chuki thi, dono ke chehre par halki si muskaan, aankhon me utsukta. Woh parlour ke liye nikalne hi wale the, jaise hi dono darwaze ki taraf mudte hai, unki aankhon ke samne ek ajeeb tasveer khadi ho gayi.

Darwaze ke bahar Nikhat khadi thi. Khamoshi, ek thodi si ajeeb si muskaan, aur aankhon me kuch samajh na aane wali chamak. Ammu aur Shanu ek dusre ki taraf dekh kar thoda hairan ho gayi, dono ki saansen dheemi ho gayi, aur room ke mahaul me ek ajib si tenseness chha gayi.
