Dil churaye, neend churaye,

Kaise kahoon kis natkhat ne kiya makhan chori re,
Nan- (closes her eyes as she sings) Maiya yashoda mori gagri se jamuna ke pul par..
Makhan haan koi re makhan chura le gaya,

Maakhan ki gagri se makhan bacha legaya,
Nan-- (looks at amms) Maiya yashoda mori gagri se jamuna ke pulpe,
Makhan haan koi dil makhan chura legaya,

Man--(with a small eyelock with nandani) Suna tha ek din maine jamuna ke pulpar chalte chalte,
Kisi gopi ko baithe akele rote naina dhalte ,..
Maine Socha Ke Meri Maiyya Se Main Kya Bolunga
Kahe Na Roka Uss Roti Gorriya Ke Dil Ko Chalte
(looks at Cabir and den at navy  d Mukti ti which dey smile) Haan Maakhan Toh Churaya, Par Usko Bhi Sikhaya..
Ke Tu Bhi Toh Thoda Sa Chak Le Bhai...
(sings passionately) Oo Maai Hum Dono Phir Jaa Baithe Uss Jamuna Ke Pul Par..
Maakhan Hum Mil Ke, Re Maakhan Chata Ho Gaya..

Nan--(looks at Manik) Oo Maiyya Yashoda Mori Gagri Se Jamuna Ke Pul Pe..
Maakhan Haan Koi De Maakhan Chura Le Gaya..

Nan--(closes her eyes) Ho Maahi Mohe Laaj Aave Kaahe Main Ro Ro Karti Thi..
Tu Hi Maakhan Chori Main Beth Ke Bas Aahein Bharti Thi..
(opens her eyes nd looks at Manik) Phir Tere Natkhat Ne Ik Din Mohe Yeh Raaz Bataya..
Ho Phir Tere Natkhat Ne Ik Din Mohe Yeh Raaz Bataya..
Chori Hota Tha Maakhan Kyun Ke Choron Se Darrti Thi...
(looks at d listners)Jo Maakhan Jam Ke Khaye, Toh Kya Koi Churaye
Toh Chakh Le Aur Chakha Le Thoda Maai...
(sings passionately) Ho Maai Tore Natkhat Ko Maine Hi Jamuna Ke Pul Pe..
Maakhan Khilaaya Re Maakhan Mera Ho Gaya..

Man--(looks at deir audience) Maiyya Yashoda Sach Kehta Hun Main Jamuna Ke Pul Par..
Maakhan Haan Gori Ko Maakhan Khilane Gaya..

Late nyt at terris..
This nyt was quite strange for Manik.. He was not able to sleep nd dus he came on terris to look at d second favourite sight.. As we all know dat d first one is His Personal Shining Star i.e. Nandini...
While looking at d stars he remembers abt d things dat happened in all dese days.. How he planned nandini's bday.. How happy she was as well as shocked.. Den he remembers dat how he himself was so terrified when he came to know abt Nandini's heart problem.. Bt den dere was nthng to be afraid of as it was her past nd now she is absolutely fine.. Nd den today ... D best day of dis workshop.. D way dey sang together in frnt of everyone.. Nd how happily amms blessed him for d frst tym in his entire lyf.. Manik has this feeling dat at some level amms knows abt him nd nandini and may be she had accepted it happily.. Anyway he was happy d way dis workshop ended...
As Manik was watching d stars and thinking dis a voice startled him..
Amms- (amusingly) Soye nhi abhi tak??
Man-(looks at her) haa wo...(stammers)
Amms- nind nhi aa rhi h..
Man- haa wo..(again stammers nd was out of words)
Amms- hmm.. U lyk stars??
Man- haa wo.. (once again stammers nd dis tym amms smiles)
Amms- (smiles) r u really afraid of me.. I mean m not a hitler.. Ab " Haa woo.." mat bolna..
Man- haa woo.. (amms atares at him with wide eyes) I mean.. Actually..
Amms- yess.. M listening..
Man- actually.. I never talk to u like dis you know.. Like personal at dis tym..
Amms-(smiles) hmm.. Dats true.. Anyway u didnt answer my questn.. U lyk stars?
Man- actually i love dem.. I mean dey r so gorgeous.. Dey make d darkness look beautiful..
Amms- hmm.. Its strange nd i dnt know if you know this or not bt nandini also loved dem..
Man-(looks at amms) loved dem??
Amms- yeah.. Bt not anymore.. Or may be she still does bt is afraid to show it..
Man- nd y is dat??
Amms- my son.. I mean her dad was a scientist.. Nd was in astronomy.. He loved stars and dus was researching on dem.. Nandini ko bhi stars bht pasand the wo apne dad ki books or notes padha karti thi .. She was too young to understand d formulas and logics bt she always looked through d books about space nd stars.. ( manik listens intently) den one day he was coming home from his work .. He was driving and he saw a shooting star.. It was not a normal one it was a huge one as confirmed by d scientists.. And my son was distracted by it and d car was out of control and.. (sobs) he died.. (takes a deep breath) when nandini came to know abt dis she never went to see her dad books ... She never touched dem..
Man- agar aisa nhi hota toh aj nandini bhi..
Amms- hmm.. Aj wo bhi shayad scientist hoti..  jst lyk her dad.. After her dad her mom died due to d trauma.. D innocent soul had suffered so much.. She was going into depression,. At dat tym music came into her lyf., She started pouring her emotions in it.. Her music was sad , depressing at frst bt den slowly nd gradually she started smiling.. She started playing with rishabh.. She started to smile brightluy.. Nd den she met u in shimla.. (looks at manik) from dat tym.. She ... Hasne lagi thi meri nandu.. I was so happy.. At dat tym i was unware dat its because of u.. Bt now i know(looks at Manik) .. Aaj tmhaare wajah se meri nandu hasne lagi h.. Khush rahne lagi h.. Uski khushi uski ankhon me dikhayi deti h.. Uske music me sunayi deti h.. (a tear fell from her eyes) pyaar karte ho na usse??
Man- (surprised at d sudden questn)
Amms- i know u do.. Jst want to tell u dat dnt leave her.. Or agar uski lyf se jaana hi h toh abhi chale jao .. Kyunki jitna wo tmhaare paas aaegi utni hi taklif use tmse door jane me hogi ... Or agar uske saath rehna chahte ho toh zindagi bhar saath nibhana uska.. She had already gone through a lot..(sobs)
Man-(with tears) i promise.. Uski ankhon me kabhi aansoon nhi aana dunga.. Khudse bhi jyada khayal rakhunga uska.. Coz i cant even imagine my lyf widout her.. Aap kehti h maine use hasna sikhaya lekin shayad aap ye nhi janti ki nandini ne mujhe jeena sikhayaa.. Mujhe pyaar karna sikhaya..
Amms smiles.. She rubs his arms... With tears in her eyes only one word came out of her mouth with a deeper meaning inside... " THANKS"
Nd  he left from dere...
-------
Manik comes back from d terris and was returning to his room when he saw nandini coming towards him..
Nan- hey...
Man- hey..
Nan- tm soye nhi..
Man- (in cracked voice) haan wo nind nhi aa rhi thi toh terris pe chala gaya tha..
Nan- manik u r okay right??
Man- (nods) better dan ever..
Nan-(smiles) ok.. Gd nyt..
She turns to leave when Manik holds her arm and pulls her in a tight hug..
Nandini was startled..
Nan-(surprisingly) Manik??
Man- shh... Jst let it be..
Both of dem closes deir eyes and smiles feeling d warmth of each other.. Feeling dat how dey completes each other..

Even d universe thinks dat how perfectly dey completes each other. How two imperfect souls come together to be a perfect soul..

SHE WAS HIS SHINING STAR and
HE WAS HER PERFECT MONSTER MANIK..

FOREVER ?
