Update 54
Scene: Next Day – Subah | Court Hearing ka din
Arti ka ghar
Subah ki roshni hall ki khidkiyon se andar aa rahi hai.
Arti haphte-haphte tayyar hoti hai—
kal raat ki lambi, bhaari neend ke baad
aaj wo late uth gayi thi.
Wo apna bag uthati hai,
files sambhalti hai
aur almost bhaagte hue bahar aati hai.
Abhishek darwaze par khada hai.
Abhishek:
“Arti, jaldi… humein nikalna hoga.”
Dono jaise hi bahar badhte hain,
Arti ki saas unke saamne aa kar khadi ho jaati hain.
Abhishek ek pal ke liye rukta hai,
uski awaaz me thodi irritations aa jaati hai—
Abhishek:
“Aaj nahi maa, please…
aaj iska jana bahut zaroori hai.”
Arti ki saas kuch nahi bolti.
Wo bas Arti ki taraf dekhti hain.
Unke haath me dahi ki katori hoti hai.
Wo chamach bharti hain
aur dheere se
Arti ke muh ke saamne le aati hain.
Arti ek pal ke liye rukti hai.
Wo Abhishek ko ek nazar dekhti hai—
phir chupchaap muh khol kar
dahi kha leti hai.
Arti ki saas
apna haath Arti ke sir par rakh deti hain.
Saas (narm awaaz me):
“Jeet kar aana, Arti.
Tum meri bahu ho.”
Arti ki aankhen bhar aati hain.
Wo jhuk kar
apni saas ka matha choom leti hai.
Abhishek ye scene dekh kar
ek gehri saans leta hai
aur phir bolta hai—
Abhishek:
“Chalo… we are getting late.”
Dono ghar se nikal jaate hain.
---
Scene shift: Rahat ka ghar
Rahat bhi tayyar ho chuki hoti hai.
Files bag me,
chehra shaant
lekin aankhon me tension.
Wo darwaze ki taraf badhti hai
tabhi peeche se awaaz aati hai—
Imdad:
“Rahat…”
Rahat ruk jaati hai.
Wo dheere kadmon se
apne baap ke kamre me jaati hai.
Imdad bed par baithe hote hain.
Jaise hi wo Rahat ko dekhte hain,
pehli baar ek halki si muskurahat unke chehre par aa jaati hai.
Imdad:
“Aaj jeet kar aana, beti ji.”
Rahat hairaan si
unhe dekhti rehti hai.
Imdad:
“Tumhara baap…
tumhara intezaar karega.”
Rahat ki aankhen
phir se thodi gili ho jaati hain.
Wo kuch nahi bolti—
bas dheere se sir hila deti hai.
Rahat kamre se bahar nikalti hai,
is baar kadmon me pehle se zyada himmat hoti hai.
Court ka din shuru ho chuka tha.
Scene: Courtroom – Montage Hearing
Courtroom me ek bhaari si khamoshi hai.
Judge apni kursi par seedhe baithe hain,
samne Vicky Rathod katghare me khada hai—
chehra sakht, aankhon me chhupa hua gussa.
Nandita dheere kadmon se aage badhti hai.
Uske haath me files hain,
aankhon me poora yakeen.
---
Montage – Court Hearing
Nandita ek ke baad ek saboot pesh karti hai
—documents, recordings, land papers, bank requests, witness statements.
Gawah bulaye jaate hain
Bangurr Colony ke log—
koi laalach ki baat karta hai,
koi dhamkiyon ki,
koi maar-peet ki.
Judge sab kuch gaur se sun raha hai.
---
Nandita ka Final Statement
Nandita (strong, clear voice):
“My Lord…
yeh case aaine ki tarah bilkul saaf hai.”
Court me sannaata chha jaata hai.
Nandita:
“Ye spasht hai ki aakhir kyu
Vicky Rathod ne ek budhi, abla mahila
ko apni gaadi se rond dala.”
Vicky ke chehre par pehli baar
bechaini dikhai deti hai.
Nandita:
“Vicky Rathod—
jinke pita desh ke ek reputed businessman,
Mr. Rathod,
ne apne business fayde ke liye
sirf accident nahi kiya,
balki yeh hit and run ka mamla tha, My Lord.”
Wo files kholti hai.
Nandita:
“Mere aur meri client Humera ke paas
yeh saare saboot maujood hain
ki kaise Rathod parivaar
ek illegal project par kaam kar raha tha.”
Judge aage jhuk kar sunta hai.
Nandita:
“Bangurr Colony ko saste daamon me kharid kar,
uske peeche ke sekdon bigha jungle ko kaat kar
apna multi-million project banana tha.
Lekin Bangurr Colony
inke raaste ki sabse badi rukawat thi.”
Cut to: Colony log—
aankhon me dard.
Nandita:
“Kisi ko lalach diya gaya,
kisi ko maara gaya,
kisi ko dara-dhamka kar
ghar chhodne par majboor kiya gaya.”
Wo ruk kar saans leti hai.
Nandita:
“Jab meri client Humera ki dadi
Shagufta Qureshi ne
inke khilaaf awaaz uthai,
aur inke banaye gaye NOC par
sign karne se mana kar diya—
to Vicky Rathod ke paas
sirf ek hi rasta bacha…”
Courtroom me tension badh jaati hai.
Nandita:
“…unhe khatam kar dena.”
Vicky ke haath bhinch jaate hain.
Nandita:
“Ek sochi-samjhi sazish ke tahat
Shagufta Qureshi ko marne ki koshish ki gayi.”
Wo ek aur file uthati hai.
Nandita:
“Sirf itna hi nahi, My Lord.
Vicky Rathod aur unke aadmiyon ne
bank manager par bhi pressure dala
ki Shagufta ka account seize ho jaye—
taaki unke paas
ghar bechne ke alawa
koi chara na bache.”
Judge ke chehre par sakhti aa jaati hai.
Nandita:
“Yeh ek poori planning thi, My Lord.
Aur isme sirf Shagufta nahi,
balki kai aur masoom logon ki zindagi
barbaad ho chuki hai.”
Court me halki si halchal.
Nandita:
“Aur kahani yahin khatam nahi hoti.”
Wo thoda rukti hai.
Nandita:
“Meri dusri client, Mrs. Avantika,
jab in logon ki sachai jaanti hain,
to unhe expose karne se pehle hi
unpar farzi FIR lagai jaati hai.”
Avantika gallery me baithi hai—
ankhen bheegi.
Nandita:
“Unhe jail bheja gaya,
phir raaton-raat gayab kar diya gaya, My Lord.
Unki image kharaab kar di gayi
taaki koi un par yakeen hi na kare.”
Judge gehri saans leta hai.
Nandita:
“Ab…
main apni aakhri gawah pesh karna chahti hoon—
Avantika.”
---
Courtroom Me Khalbali
Avantika ka naam sunte hi
poore court me khalbali mach jaati hai.
Judge bhi hairaan reh jaata hai.
Gate khulta hai.
Avantika
thaki hui, ghayal kadmon se
courtroom me entry leti hai.
Vicky katghare se use
ghoor kar dekhta hai.
Uske staff aur dost
tirchi nazron se.
Lekin Avantika ke chehre par
aaj darr nahi—
sirf sach bolne ka junoon.
Wo dheere dheere witness box tak aati hai.
Nandita (narm lekin majboot):
“Avantika…
jo bhi sach tum jaanti ho,
wo sab adalat ko batao.
Aaj tumhe darne ki zaroorat nahi hai.”

Sach jeet chuka tha.
Scene: Court ke Bahar – Afternoon Light
Court ke bahar media vans, logon ki bheed aur security officer ki movement ke beech
BEHEN_CODE ki saari ladkiyaan ek side me khadi hain.
Aaj sabke chehron par ek alag si halkepan wali khushi hai—
jaise saans lene ki jagah mili ho.
Rahat gehri saans lete hue bolti hai,
“Yaar… itne dino baad dil ko sukoon mila hai.”
Ishaani halka sa muskurate hue,
“Sach me. Lag raha hai jaise pehli baar
yeh mission khatam hua ho.”
Arti aankhon me nami ke saath,
“Mehnat rang laayi…
warna kal tak lag raha tha hum jeet bhi payenge ya nahi.”
Humera chupchaap Avantika ka haath pakad leti hai.
Avantika bas halki si smile deti hai—
thank you kehne ke liye shabd kam pad rahe hote hain.
Sabke beech ek baat common hai—
raahat.
Lekin…
Anushka thodi door khadi hai.
Chehra shaant, aankhen serious.
Na zyada smile, na zyada excitement.
Rahat use notice karti hai,
“Anu… tu theek hai na?”
Anushka bas halka sa nod karti hai.
Tabhi Kabeer thodi door khada dikhai deta hai—
bandaged shoulder, thaka hua chehra,
lekin aankhon me wahi purani warmth.
Anisha use dekh kar thoda awkward ho jaati hai.
Ishaani (teasing tone):
“Oho… someone is waiting.”
Arti:
“Ja ja… hero ko akela mat chhod.”
Rahat:
“Hum yahin hain, Miss Babysitter.”
Anisha sharmate hue,
“Bas do minute…”
Wo Kabeer ki taraf chal padti hai.

Mini Scene: Anisha & Kabeer
Kabeer halki si smile ke saath bolta hai,
“Tum theek ho?”
Anisha:
“Hmm… tum se better.”
Dono ke beech thodi si khamoshi.
Kabeer (soft):
“Mujhe laga tha main nahi bachunga…
lekin jab hosh aaya,
sabse pehla khayal tumhara tha.”
Anisha ki aankhen bhar aati hain.
Anisha:
“Dobara aisa mat sochna.
Tumhe aise hi chhod dete kya hum?”
Kabeer halka sa hansa,
“Pata hai…
isi liye shayad darr kam lagta hai.”
Ek chhota sa moment—
na confession, na promises—
bas ek samajh.
Anisha muskurati hai,
“Rest karo.
Abhi humara kaam khatam nahi hua hai.”
Kabeer sir hila deta hai.
---
Back to Group
Anisha wapas group ke paas aati hai.
Sab usse dekh kar muskura rahe hote hain.
Rahat (dramatic tone):
“Toh ladies…
all well if ends well!”
Sab ek saath hans padte hain.
Tabhi Anushka dheere se bolti hai—
“Abhi nahi.”
Hansna ruk jaata hai.
Sab ki nazar Anushka par tik jaati hai.
Anushka (serious, controlled):
“Abhi sab kuch khatam nahi hua hai.
Abhi…
kuch kaam baaki hai.”
Hawa me ek baar phir
mission wali tension ghul jaati hai.
Camera Anushka ke chehre par freeze hota hai—
aankhon me ek naya sawal,
ek nayi ladai ka ishara.
CUT.
Scene: Arti ki Library (Court case ke 3–4 din baad)
Library me shaanti thi—
books ki khushboo, pages palatne ki halki si awaaz…
Arti counter ke piche khadi kuch registers arrange kar rahi thi.
Uske chehre aur gardan par chot ke nishaan abhi bhi the,
lekin aankhon me ek alag hi sukoon tha—jaise kisi lambi ladai ke baad milta hai.
Darwaze ki ghanti halki si baji.
Arti ne nazar uthayi…
Nakul.
Bahut dino baad aaya tha.
Same simple shirt, calm si presence.
Unki nazrein ek dusre se mili—
ek pal ke liye waqt jaise ruk sa gaya.
Arti halki si muskurayi.
Nakul bhi.
Nakul apni kursi se uth kar Arti ke paas aata hai.
Uski nazar anjaane me Arti ke zakhmon par padti hai—
wo kuch nahi bolta, bas aankhon me concern aa jata hai.
Nakul (soft tone):
“Sab theek ho? Maine… kaafi kuch suna.”
Arti sir hila kar kehti hai,
“Ab haan.”
Nakul thoda sa rukta hai, phir bolta hai—
“Mujhe pata chala aapne kis tarah sab sambhala.
Sach kahun… main aap par proud feel karta hoon, Arti.”
Arti thodi si embarrass ho jati hai, phir muskurakar kehti hai—
“Thank you, Nakul.”
Thodi der normal gupshup—
books, library, routine…
sab kuch normal lagne lagta hai.
Phir Nakul halka sa smile karte hue puchta hai—
“Waise… mera wada to yaad hai na?
Coffee wala.”
Arti uski taraf dekhti hai,
phir dheere se gardan hila deti hai—
ek chhoti si smile ke saath.
---
Scene Shift: Ishaani – Restaurant
Court hearing ke baad aaj pehli baar Ishaani kaam par lauti thi.
Jaise hi wo restaurant ke andar enter karti hai—
poora restaurant khada ho jata hai.
Clapping.
Seetiyan.
Smiles.
Ishaani ek pal ke liye freeze ho jati hai.
Manager aage badh kar kehta hai—
“We are proud of you, Ishaani.”
Uske colleagues use chhote-chhote gifts dete hain,
koi chocolate, koi card, koi bas hug.
Ishaani ki aankhein chamak rahi hoti hain—
thoda shock, thoda khushi.
Uski ek close friend uske kaan me kehti hai—
“Aur haan… aaj shaam tumhare liye ek surprise hai.”
Ishaani:
“Kaisa surprise?”
Friend sirf smile karti hai—
“Kuch nahi bataungi.”
Sab log wapas apne kaam par laut jaate hain,
aur Ishaani wahi khadi reh kar sabko dekhti rehti hai—
muskurate hue.
---
Scene Shift: Rahat – Radio Station
Rahat bhi kaafi din baad radio station aayi thi.
Jaise hi lift se bahar nikalti hai—
staff ka ek chhota sa group taali bajata hua aata hai.
Manager kehta hai—
“Welcome back, star girl.”
Koi uske haath me coffee thama deta hai,
koi bas kehta hai—
“We missed you.”
Rahat thoda sa emotional ho jati hai,
“Thank you… thank you so much,” kehti hui.
Wo apni chair par aakar baithti hai,
mic ke saamne…
headphones uthati hai.
Ek gehri saans leti hai.
Sab kuch phir se apni jagah par aa raha tha—
lekin is baar Rahat thodi aur strong thi.

lekin aankhon me ek alag hi sukoon tha—jaise kisi lambi ladai ke baad milta hai.
Darwaze ki ghanti halki si baji.
Arti ne nazar uthayi…
Nakul.
Bahut dino baad aaya tha.
Same simple shirt, calm si presence.
Unki nazrein ek dusre se mili—
ek pal ke liye waqt jaise ruk sa gaya.
Arti halki si muskurayi.
Nakul bhi.
Nakul apni kursi se uth kar Arti ke paas aata hai.
Uski nazar anjaane me Arti ke zakhmon par padti hai—
wo kuch nahi bolta, bas aankhon me concern aa jata hai.
Nakul (soft tone):
“Sab theek ho? Maine… kaafi kuch suna.”
Arti sir hila kar kehti hai,
“Ab haan.”
Nakul thoda sa rukta hai, phir bolta hai—
“Mujhe pata chala aapne kis tarah sab sambhala.
Sach kahun… main aap par proud feel karta hoon, Arti.”
Arti thodi si embarrass ho jati hai, phir muskurakar kehti hai—
“Thank you, Nakul.”
Thodi der normal gupshup—
books, library, routine…
sab kuch normal lagne lagta hai.
Phir Nakul halka sa smile karte hue puchta hai—
“Waise… mera wada to yaad hai na?
Coffee wala.”
Arti uski taraf dekhti hai,
phir dheere se gardan hila deti hai—
ek chhoti si smile ke saath.

Scene Shift: Ishaani – Restaurant
Court hearing ke baad aaj pehli baar Ishaani kaam par lauti thi.
Jaise hi wo restaurant ke andar enter karti hai—
poora restaurant khada ho jata hai.
Clapping.
Seetiyan.
Smiles.
Ishaani ek pal ke liye freeze ho jati hai.
Manager aage badh kar kehta hai—
“We are proud of you, Ishaani.”
Uske colleagues use chhote-chhote gifts dete hain,
koi chocolate, koi card, koi bas hug.
Ishaani ki aankhein chamak rahi hoti hain—
thoda shock, thoda khushi.
Uski ek close friend uske kaan me kehti hai—
“Aur haan… aaj shaam tumhare liye ek surprise hai.”
Ishaani:
“Kaisa surprise?”
Friend sirf smile karti hai—
“Kuch nahi bataungi.”
Sab log wapas apne kaam par laut jaate hain,
aur Ishaani wahi khadi reh kar sabko dekhti rehti hai—
muskurate hue.

Scene Shift: Rahat – Radio Station
Rahat bhi kaafi din baad radio station aayi thi.
Jaise hi lift se bahar nikalti hai—
staff ka ek chhota sa group taali bajata hua aata hai.
Manager kehta hai—
“Welcome back, star girl.”
Koi uske haath me coffee thama deta hai,
koi bas kehta hai—
“We missed you.”
Rahat thoda sa emotional ho jati hai,
“Thank you… thank you so much,” kehti hui.
Wo apni chair par aakar baithti hai,
mic ke saamne…
headphones uthati hai.
Ek gehri saans leti hai.
Sab kuch phir se apni jagah par aa raha tha—
lekin is baar Rahat thodi aur strong thi.
