After some days
In Sethi Mansion
Everyone was having breakfast when Anirudh's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Commissioner's call. He answered the call and said: Good morning Sir......
The Commissioner replied from the other side: Good morning Anirudh...... I have a case for you..... I want you here right now.....
Anirudh then said: Ok Sir..... I'll be there in 15 minutes......
He hanged up. Rudra then said dramatically: Aa gaya aapke Sasurji ka phone..... chal diye sasural......
Everyone chuckled and Anirudh glared at him and said: Shut up Rudra......
And he left.

In Commissioner's office,
Commissioner said: Anirudh...... aap ek bohot hi kaabil aur mehenati officer hai..... aur isliye mai aapko..... Looteri dulhan ka case..... dena chahta hu...... aur mujhe poora yakeen hai...... ki aap use jald se jald..... pakad lenge.......
Anirudh then said: Thank you so much Sir..... wo looteri dulhan jald hi aapke saamne hogi.....
The commissioner smiled and Anirudh left and went to his cabin.

In his cabin
Anirudh came and sat on his chair. He then called out: Shukla.....
In a matter of seconds Shukla came and uttered: Yes Sir.......
Anirudh then said: Shukla..... mujhe looteri dulhan ki file laa kar do....
Shukla nodded and brought the file. Anirudh opened the file and got shocked. He then uttered loudly in shock: Ye kya hai..... What the hell is this......
Shukla gulped and uttered stammering: Ky.... Kya hua S.... Sir.....
Anirudh looked at him and said: Iss file me ek bhi information nahi hai...... mujhse pehle iss case ka incharge kon tha....
Shukla replied stammering: Pa... pata..... na... nahi Sir.....
Anirudh calmed down himself and said: Ok..... par mujhe iski sari information chahiye..... ek kaam karo.... ek meeting bulao..... mai batata hu..... kisko kya karna hai.....
Shukla nodded.
Anirudh then uttered determined: Iss baar wo mere haathon se nahi bachegi......
Shukla exclaimed without realising: Ek baar toh aapne..... use khud hi bhaga diya tha..... He laughed a little.
Anirudh glared at him and he immediately left.

After some time
In the meeting.
Anirudh: So.... Officer Samar..... three weeks.... teen hafto ka time hai aapke paas.... inn teen hafto me..... mujhe har uss family ki information chahiye..... jinko iss looteri dulhan ne loota hai...... iss baar wo bachni nahi chahiye..... Understood everyone......
Everyone nodded and left except Samar.
He came towards Anirudh and said: Dekh Ani..... tera junior hone ke saath - saath.... ter a accha dost bhi hu..... isliye keh raha hu..... aaram se kaam lena...... waise bhabhi ka haal hai....
Anirudh then asked confusingly: Kon bhabhi.....
Samar looked at him and hit his head with his hand and said: Oyeee..... Bhabhi matlab.... Bondita bhabhi......
Anirudh realised and then he remembered last night moments and his cheeks turned red. Samar then exclaimed dramatically: Oh my God...... ye mai kya dekh raha hu..... Most eligible IPS Officer Anirudh Sethi..... blush kar raha hai......
Anirudh looked at him sternly suppressing his blush. Samar then said: Accha ok..... But Ani..... I think tujhe bhabhi ke saath.... thoda time spend karna chahiye..... bechari teri duty ki wajah se.... tujhse theek se baat bhi nahi kar paati hogi.....
Anirudh then said: But duty is important......
Samar then kept his hand on his shoulder and said: Life partner is also important..... Mere Bhai.....
Anirudh then nodded and said: Accha chal..... mai chalta hu..... Bye.....
Samar too smiled and said: Ok..... Bye.....
And he left.

Anirudh reached home and Saw Ashish and Suman sitting with the family members. He went towards them and touched their feet. Jahanavi then said: Accha hua..... jaldi aagaye tum..... jao.... jakar fresh ho jao......
Anirudh nodded and went to his room.

( Please listen to the music while reading further)

He was about to enter the room but stopped when he saw Bondita in his police uniform with the gun in her hand and wearing sunglasses. Full Salman Khan style 😎😎😎 The uniform was quite oversized on her but no doubt she looked cute. He leaned on the door folding his hands on his chest and started staring her. He then took out his phone and clicked her pics. She uttered imitating Salman: Hum tum me itne ched karenge...... ki bhool jaoge ki saans kahan se le aur..... her words died in her mouth as she turned around and saw Anirudh. She got shocked and removed the sunglasses and uttered getting embarrassed: Aa.... aap..... kab aaye......
He then replied in order to tease her: Tabhi..... jab aap..... Lady Salman Khan bani hui thi.......
She nervously said: Hum.... change..... change kar ke aate hai.....
She started leaving but he stopped her: Wait.....
He opened his cupboard and took out his police cap and made her wear it. He then uttered with a smile looking at her: Perfect 🤩.......
She tried to remove the cap but he held her hand and then clicked a selfie of both of them.
Bondita then nervously uttered: Hum.... hum change kar ke aate hain......
And went to the washroom hurriedly. Anirudh smiled at her cuteness.

Inside
Bondita looked at herself in the mirror and uttered: Jab bhi hum koi pagalpanti karte hai...... tab hi kyun aa jate hain ye......
She then changed her clothes and came out. She looked at him and uttered: Sorry wo..... hum.....
But he interrupted her and said: It's ok..... acchi lag rahi thi.....
She blushed unknowingly hearing his compliment. He smiled seeing her blush. She then said in order to change the topic: Accha.... aap itni der me kyun aaye.....
He then said teasingly taking a step closer to her while she took a step back: Kyun...... raha nahi jaa raha tha mere bina......
She nervously turned her face and uttered: Ai.... aisa.... kuch.... kuch nahi hai......
He looked at her turning his head and uttered: Accha..... And took a step back.
She then asked: Waise... kis kaam ke liye gaye the.....
He then said again teasing her: Kamal hai..... shaadi se pehle hi biwiyon wale sawal karne lagi.......
She then uttered nervously: Aree.... n... n... nahi..... aisa nahi hai.....
He then chuckled and said: Aree baba.... mazak kar raha hu..... aaj ek naya case mila hai.....
She then asked: Accha..... kaunsa case.....
He then replied: Looteri dulhan ke bare me toh suna hi hoga......
She got shocked and uttered: Kya wo.... ca... case.... aa.... aap sambhal.... rahe hai.....
He then said: Haan.... par aap kyun itna ghabra rahi hain.... kahin aap hi toh.....
She looked at him shocked with wide eyes. He chuckled and said: Aree relax.... I'm joking......
She took a deep breath and to calm down herself. She then uttered: Mai.... mai neeche jati hu...... aap fresh ho kar aa jaiye.....
And left the room. He smiled and went to freshen up.

At night.
At Bondita's house
All of them were sitting when Bondita said: Jiska darr tha wo hi hua.... looteri dulhan ka case use mil gaya hai....
Ansh then said: Tension nahi lene ka.... isse bhi bade bade officer hum ko nahi pakad paye..... to ye kaise pakad lega....
Bondita then said: Wo jo bhi hai..... par ye bohot samajhdar hai...... hume bach kar rehna hoga.....
Suman then said: Fikar mat kar..... bas ek maheene ki baat hai..... sambhal le..... phir koi tension nahi.....
Bondita slowly nodded.

Next day
Anirudh got ready to go for his duty. He came down and Jahanavi then said: Aaj Panditji aane wale hai.... shaadi ka muharat nikalne.....
Rudra looked at Anirudh and asked: Bondita bhabhi bhi aayengi kya Mom?.....
Jahanavi then replied: Haan..... Bondita aur uske gharwale.... bas abhi aate hi honge.....
Rudra looked at Anirudh and said: Bro.... aap kyun yahan khade ho.... jao.... aapke sasural wale aur Sasurji.... intezar kar rahe hai.....
He rolled his eyes and said: Shut up Duffer..... I'm going....
Everyone chuckled and he started leaving but Jahanavi stopped him and said: Ani.... Beta.... if you don't mind..... thodi der ke liye ruk jaa na..... tumhara yahan rehna important hai.....
Anirudh then said: Ok Mom.....
Rudra then said teasingly: Haan... haan.... why would he mind.....
At that moment
Bondita Suman Ashish and Ansh arrived there. Panditji too came.
Everyone sat and Panditji asked: Ladki ki kundali dikhaiye......
Suman and Ashish looked at each other and Suman then said: Wo Bondita ki kundali bani nahi hai.... mera matlab yahan nahi.... gaon me hai....
Bondita then muttered shaking her head: Wahh re jhoothe.....
Mehek who was sitting beside her asked: Kuch kaha tumne.....
She looked at her and shook her head immediately.
Panditji then said: Koi baat nahi..... ladka ladki apna haath dikha den....
Both of them showed their hands to him. Panditji looked at their hands and uttered: Dono ki haath ki rekhaye..... mil rahi hai.....
Bondita tried to look at Anirudh's hand. Anirudh looked at her and asked raising his eyebrows and she turned her face getting embarrassed. He chuckled. Panditji then said: Shaadi ke liye..... agle hafte ka muharat bohot shubh hai..... warna agla muharat chaar (4) saal baad ka hai.....
Pinky then said: To bolo Ani..... agle hafte ya chaar (4) saal baad.....
Anirudh immediately said: Agle hafte.... I.... I mean.... aap logon ko bekar me intezar karna padega......
Samaira then said teasingly: Hume intezar karna padega ya aapko.....
Anirudh downed his head and everyone chuckled including Bondita. He looked at her and was lost in her. Her smile. The way her eyes get close when she smiles or laugh. The hair strands falling on her face. Rudra noticed him staring at her and said: Bro.... aap ab jaa sakte hain....
But he didn't listen as he was lost in her. Rudra then kept his hand on his shoulder and said: Brooo.... agar aapka bhabhi ko ghoorna ho gaya ho.... toh you can go now.....
Anirudh came out of his trance and looked at everyone embarrassed. Everyone controlled their smiles and Bondita blushed unknowingly. He got up and left saying: Mai chalta hu..... Bye.....

Anirudh reached the police station and went to his cabin. Shukla entered the cabin and saluted him: Jai Hind Sir....
Anirudh then replied: Jai Hind Shukla....
Shukla then said: Sir.... sare officers aapka wait kar rahe hai.... meeting room me....
Anirudh nodded and went to the meeting room.

The meeting started. Everyone was discussing about the case. But Anirudh's mind was not present in the meeting. One of the officers asked: Sir.... what's your opinion about it.....
Anirudh was still lost and uttered without realising: She is the most beautiful girl I've ever seen....... Uski gehri kali aankhen..... masoom si muskaan..... ghane kaale Baal....
Samar looked at everyone who were looking at him with a weird face. He went towards Anirudh and uttered: Ani.... kya bol raha hai tu.....
Anirudh came out of his trance and looked at him and then at everyone. He cleared his throat and said nervously: I.... I.... am sorry.... actually mai..... leave it..... aap log kya keh rahe the.......
Shukla then said: Sir.... hum ye pooch rahe the ki.... what's your opinion about looteri dulhan.....
Anirudh then said: Haa..... I think..... ye jo koi bhi hai..... bohot chalak aur shaatir hai...... isliye aaj tak kahi bhi apni koi tasweer nahi chodi hai usne..... officer Samar...... isne kahan kahan chori ki hai..... kuch pata chala......
Samar then said: Usne ek jagah nahi...... kam se kam bees (20) jagah chori ki hai..... aur wo lag kaun kaun hai..... ye bhi jald hi pata chal jayega.......
Anirudh then said: Great..... you all can leave now......
Everyone left except Samar. He came towards Anirudh and said: Ek naya case aaya hai......
Anirudh then asked while arranging the files: Accha.....
Samar then said: Case ye hai ki.... ek ladki ne.... ACP Anirudh Sethi ka dil churaya hai......
Anirudh exclaimed without realising: Kon hai woh..... Realising what he said he glared at him and said: Pagal ho gaya hai Kya Samar......
Samar then said: Haan.... sach hai yeh..... aur uss ladki ka naam hai.... Bondita Mehra..... jisne Anirudh Sethi ka dil aise churaya hai..... ki use pata bhi nahi chala....
Anirudh then sat on his chair and said: Kyun bejar ki baatein kar raha hai Samar......
Samar then said sitting in front of him: Bekar ki baatein nahi hai hai..... yeh sach hai..... Accha bata tujhe bhabhi acchi lagti hai?......
He then replied: Haan.....
Samar then asked: Bhabhi me kya accha lagta hai tujhe.....
Anirudh got lost in her thoughts and uttered: Sab kuch..... uski baatein...... uski dil me jo sab ke liye pyaar aur izzat hai.....
Samar smiled and asked: Tu bhabhi se pyaar karta hai?......
He was still lost and he uttered without realising: Haan..... Samar smiled widely and Anirudh realised what he said and looked at him shocked. Samar then said smiling: Hence proved..... tujhe bhabhi se pyaar ho gaya hai.....
Anirudh then said stammering: Ai... aisa.... kuch bhi.... kuch bhi nahi hai.....
Samar then said: Accha..... aisa nahi hai..... toh bol tu bhabhi se pyaar nahi karta.....
Anirudh then said: Tu pagal ho gaya hai.....
Samar then said: Aree.... tu pyaar nahi karta na bhabhi se..... toh bol de.... you don't love Bondita.....
Anirudh then: Tu.... mai nahi bolunga.....
Samar then said: Kya hai...... kyun nahi bol paa raha hai..... mai tujhe batata hu.... tu isliye bol paa raha hai..... kyunki tujhe pyaar ho gaya hai bhabhi se..... mera kaam tha batana..... baki tu khud samajh......
And he left.
Anirudh then uttered to himself: Kya Samar sach bol raha hai..... Am I really in Love?..... Aarav meri help kar sakta hai.....
