Jeff and zubin got mingled up with everyone ...... they all had loads of fun .... and moved to house and slept happily ....Nandu even exchanged numbers with jeff and zubin....To know about arya ...   

Next day morning .....All came down with luggage's to move back to mumbai ......

Manik called varun and helly and checked everything related to office from home ....... Finally nandu and arya are sitting in the hall very silently ....Rest all are looking at their dull faces ......

Manik came there after sending helly and varun ....And also he checked with the security of arya ......He went and sat beside nandu.....She immediately hugged him crying .....

Manik : stop crying biwi .....y r u  crying ......He got good friends ..... And mr khan is also here to take care of his safety......

After reaching mumbai ...All the others left to their homes ......Dadi manan cabir mukti reached home and took rest for the day .....

After three months ......

We can see nandu running here and there in hurry ....She is getting everything ready for some puja ....

Manik just came down all ready .....
But In traditional dress ....

He saw nandu is busy so he sat on the dinning table looking at her ....After sometime cabir and dhruv joined him....aliya moved to help nandu dadi and for arranging puja ......

Than they heard car sounds .....Harshad Aisha arjun came ..... They are welcomed by everyone ....Than ruhi abhi navya also joined them ....They all are sitting together .....

finally mukti came looking  very dull .....
.And sat beside manik and hugged him....

Manik : is my baby sleepy....

She nodded her head in no....

Mukti : arya bhai.....She says very slowly ....

Manik : he tried to come but he can't come baby ......

Mukti : i want all four of you together .....

Manik : so shall we go to him......

Mukti: we can't go now na .....Bcoz there is puja in home ....

Manik : nothing is more important than your happiness ...We can do the same puja in delhi also ....

Mukti : no baba .....But you know na we never celebrated rakhi without each other ....He didn't even answer my call ....He is so busy...

Manik : he is a doctor baby ..Ofcourse he will be busy. ..

Mukti : how can he ignore my calls .....

They are busy talking to each other ....Nandu called everyone for puja ....They did the puja ... While pandit was reciting the mantras.....

The puja completed ..... Nandu gave pandit the shagun..... And gave him send off ....

Than she came back to see mukti dull.....
Nandu hugged her tightly ....

Nandu : baby ....You should not cry like this ...  

Mukti : i want arya bhai also .....

Nandu : come sit here ..... Y do you want arya ...

Mukti : i want to tie rakhi to him also ....

Nandu : do you know why we tie rakhi.....

Everyone gathered around nandu and  mukti and sat on The couches and bean bags ......They are listening to nandu very attentively ......

Mukti : bcoz a bhai protects his behan ......

Nandu : do we need a bhai beside us to protect us... No matter where he is ...He will protect you ....loVe you ....

Mukti : but ....

Nandu : okay.... Did anyone ever tell you why we celebrate rakhi on a special day only ....

Mukti : no....

Nandu wipes away her tears..... I will tell you today .....

In Mahabharata ..... Lord krishna told us many things ....Lord sri krishna is the king of dwaraka......He has a own sister subhadra.... Once he had gone on a war .... After returning from the war everyone are praising him for his success .....Everyone are only praising him no one noticed his pain.... Draupadi is the wife of pandavas ....
She is like a sister to him but not own she noticed his pain bcoz his wrist got cut in the war....She  panicked .... Than she tore her saree in hurry and tied it to his wrist to prevent blood loss .... Lord krishna was over whelmed with the love and care she showed on him....So he said that day ....That the cloth she tied.... is the raksha dagha which protected him and saved his life ....That day is celebrated as rakhsa bhandan..... He promised her he will protect his sister always .... So when draupadi was being humiliated in the court palace in front of hundreds of people ....No one came to rescue her ...her 5 husband's are present there....
but no one saved her....But even if he is not present there ... Lord krishna sent sarees and saved her dignity and self respect .......so that's what rakhi means ....You doNt need to have your bhai always with you ....No matter where they are .... They will stand by you and protect you .... So my baby is a good girl na .... So no crying ....

Mukti : okay I won't cry ....

Nandu kisses her forehead .....

Nandu : okay I told you about brother  protecting a sister ....Right ....now you tell me does a sister protect his brother ....

Mukti : she will do everything to save her brothers. ....

Nandu : yes....It is also said that lakshmi the goddess of wealth  .....Saved her brother...... once there used to be  a king called bali ..... Lord vishnu gave him a boon...But unfortunately lord vishnu became the gate keeper of king  bali ......Bcoz of that boon ...Than goddess  lakshmi  started searching all the world's for her husband she didn't find him anywhere finally she reached the kingdom of bali..... She disguised herself in the form of a brahmin lady ..... Than king asked her why she came there ... She said she is brahmin lady and her husband is out for some important work and she needs shelter ..... So the king gave her shelter in his palace ....Than on pournami ..... She also tried rakhi to the king ..... The king asked her a wish to fullfil....She asked him to release the gate keeper bcoz he is her husband...Then they both appeared as god and goddess ....And later after many years king faces a problem because of a demon ......
Than lord lakshmi sends her husband lord vishnu  to fight with the demon and save her brother ....so not only a brother but a sister also should  help a brother ....

So my cute baby . .Try and understand arya situation...  If he can come ....He will be more than happy to come here ......If you cry like this on seeing you in video call he will cry more .... There are many people to console you  ......But he is alone there ....Bcoz jeff and zubin went to dubai to celebrate it with their family ....So plzz understand na ....

Mukti : okay.....I will not cry ...I will not make these people sad  who are with me ....

Nandu hugs her ...That's my good baby.....So chalo let's tie rakhi ......Everyone feels how nicely she convinced a stubborn mukti ....
manik is just admiring her ......He felt how lucky can he  be having her in his life .....

Than mukti gets a thaal ready ..... Manik dhruv and cabir sits on the couch ......

She moves to manik first ....And does the tilak and ties the rakhi and made him eat sweet ..... He is about to give her gift ....She doesn't take it ...manik frowns on looking at her denying the gift ......He thought she is still dull  bcoz arya is not here ......

Than she did tilak of dhruv and tied the rakhi ...... He also bought a gift for her ...She denied it .....

Than she is about to do tilak of cabir she has tears in her eyes....Someone is just tapping on her shoulder continuously ....She turned back to see a big size teddy bear .

...Behind her ......In fear she sat on manik lap ...Who held her tightly ......

Mukti : baba ....She hugged him tightly .....

Manik : it's just a teddy bear baby ....A gift for you ....

Mukti : it's walking on her own.....

Teddy bear speaks...Bcoz its me .....Saying the teddy bear pulls the head away ...Revealing the face ......

Mukti immediately jumped on him hugging him tightly .......She is crying in happiness .....He just hugged her back ....

Arya : you are not happy i came here .....Ok chodo mujhe i will go back ...Bcoz you are crying ....

Mukti : thank you bhai.....I missed you a lot ....

Arya : even i missed you baby. ...Come let's tie my rakhi ....Saying he sat between cabir and dhruv ....She did his tilak and then tied rakhi ....He is about to give gift she denied him also ....

Than finally cabir she did tilak of him ..... And he didn't stretch his hand .....

Mukti : cabbu bhai ....Plzz ....

Cabir : my gift ....He demands her ....

Nandu comes and gives mukti a chocolate bar .....She gives it to cabir than only he gives his hand ......

Navya : u need a return gift to tie rakhi ....

Cabir : yes bcoz I'm special .....

Dadi : so special ....once his friend in school told him bcoz of tieing  a thread on his hand his blood got struck and his hand pained a lot ... On that year rakhi he is not even willing to tie rakhi ....Than neo gave him chocolate. ...He is busy with chocolate than mukti tied the rakhi ....From that year this became his habit ....Without chocolate he doesn't tie a rakhi ......

Everyone laugh listening to this .....

Than aliya makes harshad to sit ....And beside him abhi sits .....

Aliya comes with thaal along with ruhi .... She pulls nandu first ....

Aliya : di you are our elder ....You tie for both of them first ....Than we will tie .....

Nandu : arey but .......

Harshad : as you only said draupadi is not the own sister ....So only relation is valued no need to be a blood relation..... come on tie it..... First to me as I'm elder to abhi .....

Nandu has tears listening to him.......She than tied the rakhi ......First to harshad than abhi .....After her aliya.....Than ruhi navya ....Tied rakhi to harshad and abhi ......

Arjun is sitting beside dadi and seeing everything ......

Dadi : kya hua beta y r u looking dull ....

Arjun : even i want sister to tie rakhi for me .....

Dadi : apni mummy daddy se Puchlena ....

Arjun goes directly to harshad and Aisha .....And stands between them holding their hands ....

Arjun : i want a sister to tie rakhi ........

Rest all are laughing looking at him....Aisha is blushing .....harshad is not knowing what to say ......

Nandu : if you want a sister you should pray to God ....Bcoz i did the same ...I got two lovely brothers......

Arjun : sachme mami ....

Nandu : mami kabhi jhooth bolti hae .....

Arjun ::nooooo.....

Nandu : than go ask god.....

Arjun immediately runs to  puja mandir and stands before the god idol and asks for sister ....... .

Precap : rakhi gifts. .....

Why did mukti refuse gifts .....????
