Happy reading❤

It was the last day of shoot.Everyone had tears  in their eyes but then the joy of giving a hit show was also reflected in their smiles.They all were loitering around "clicking pictures,chatting ,hugging each other and vowing to be in touch in near future also.They all took selfies,clicked pictures and made tik tok videos of all the masti on sets.

It was the last day and the scenes to be shot included pvkm people ie gang and lochan sir.

The group of six was super happy to reunite again both onscreen and offscreen.
The mumbai track not only separated samundit or swapreena but also  randeep sanjay raghav kristina Ashi and Ayesha.

The friendly hugs and the happy moments lasted for the whole day and as it was Ashi's  birthday ..the remaining 5 had decided to be less emotional and little nostalgic as they didnt wish to see a crying birthday girl.

"Ayesha wo cake ka order place kar di na?" randeep asked to which she replied

"Ha tu fikar na kar sab done " she replied confidently.

"Chalo good tu hai to kya tension...I hope ki wo thodi khush ho jae"

Ayesha smiled and stared at him adoringly.When he noticed this ,he asked "kyu hasri hai?"

"Sochri hoon ki kaise shoot ke initial days mein Ashi se distant rehne wala randeep ab uski khushi ke bare mein itna soch raha hai"

Randeep blushed and immediately remembered their initial days when he used to maintain distance as much as possible just to avoid shipping and make their roles look natural.

Later on he had reasoned that it was a part of his method acting in which not only sameer but even randeep decided to stay away from naina/Ashi respectively.

He chuckled and replied
"Kitna stupid tha na mai bhi...Ashi se dur rehne ke chakkar mein I distanced myself from all of you "

Ayesha agreed "Stupid tha nai...ab bhi hai..."she said with a tinge of seriousness

"Matlab?" he asked

"Matlab ki dur tab rehna chahta tha is show ki wajah se but aaj to show bandh ho raha hai to kal se mehnat bhi nahi karni padegi tujhe" she uttered and took back some unshed tears.

He felt his heart sinking at her words.The feeling which he was trying to ignore till now was coming back again on the surface of his heart,the same heart which was a treasure box of his hidden feelings,his unsaid words,his unshared emotions and pain.But today its the last day of them being together as a couple ,well onscreen afcourse because offscreen they were just "professional costars "
He made himself stable again and then ignored the whole conversation very smartly.

"Arey Ayesha listen wo party poppers and 22 ka candle bhi bol dena cake ke sath...I will just check the sound system ek baar ...Chal bbye " and then he was gone .He didnt look back again and thats when Ayesha smiled

"Sach bauhat accha actor hai yeh...ansu bhi baha lia aur chupa bhi lia....aur waha meri heroine to aur kamaal ki hai...subah se ucchal kud karke dard to aise chupa rahi hai as if use koi fark hi nahi padta "

Kristina ,Raghav and sanjay joined her and asked "Ye akele mein kya badbada rahi hai?"

"Kuch nahi bas samaina ke bare mein soch rahi hoon " Ayesha replied with a deep sigh.

"Samaina ke bare mein ?" they asked together.

"Ha kal se kaha dikhege humein...samaina....samundit...
swapreena,
preedit..swamun...krisjay ...Ayera ya Ashdeep..."
she said with a heavy heart.

"Aww ..mera boyfriend to emotional ho gaya aaj" and kuttu hugged Ayesha tightly.

"Hum bhi aa sakte hai?" sanjay asked to which Ayesha extended her hand towards raghav and kuttu towards sanjay and the group hug turned into an emotional moment with them remembering all the school phase and pooja di shaadi fun. Samaina's wedding and post fun were also remembered but their main memories were from pvkm days only.

On the other hand ,

Ashi was faking excitement as much as possible but then people around her knew her real self very well.They all knew how great she is as an actress,how real she is as a person .Therefore,people around her were not enjoying these moments.They all wanted her to share her pain but then it was her birthday and making her cry was not a good option for her day.

"Ashi sun na .."ayesha called her

"Ha bol?" she questioned with a big

Tu theek hai na?" ayesha asked seriously

Ashi's smile faded a bit but then she replied "Ha khush hoon na...tu bhi ayeshu...accha chal ...last part shoot karne ka time aa chuka hai "

Randeep heard this conversation and thought "Itni acchi acting karti hai ye ladki "

The moment this thought came into his mind,he felt a hand over his shoulder.He turned to see Sanjay and raghav standing there with a serious look.

"Kya hua tum dono itna gusse mei kyu ho?" he asked his besties.

"Tu bhi bauhat accha actor hai " said raghav while looking straight into his eyes.

Randeep was surprised to know that how well these boys knew him.They always understood ,whatever he felt ,whatever  he wanted to say,they knew it before anyone else.

"Kya bolre ho tum dono bhi....chalo sab wait kar rahe hoge"randeep ignored the conversation and started moving .

"Ye humara last shot hoga randeep" sanjay loudly declared.

Randeep felt a pain in his heart and then that pain flowed down his eyes as tears.

He turned to look at the duo and then they ran towards him for a bone crushing hug in "samundit style".

After departing,raghav said "Ye last chance hai bhai tere pass"

"Nahi yaar...kuch dard chupe hi acche,kuch batein ankahi hi sahi " randeep replied with a stammering voice .

"Ye baat bol deni chiye ....pyar ka gyaan hum tujhe nhi dege...kyuki sameer banne ke bad is shabd ko tu humse behtar janta hai " sanjay replied with a stern to which randeep couldnt say anything.

Just then they saw the three girls coming towards them .Raghav immediately said"Wo dekh Ashi ko...aaj birthday hai aur kitni sad hai....tu janta hai na kyu hai ?"

"Ha janta hoon "randeep confessed looking towards Ashi who was looking like an angel in that white floor length dress.He could see her flowing hair that cute beautiful face but  those empty eyes of his onscreen love naina revealed the mirror of her heart.

"only onscreen? his inner feeling questioned and he knew the answer really well.

"Aaj shoot ka last day hai...udaas hai hum sab ...humare fans but ab kya kar sakte hai" he reasoned trying to be practical with his words.

Raghav and sanjay fake laughed on this and just then the girls joined them.

"So guys ek akhiri group photo ho jaaye?" asked kuttu.

They all nodded with wide smiles and crying hearts.They sat on the steps of their pvkm set and the group picture was clicked by one of the crew member.

"ONE LAST TIME "

"Guys chalo last scene shoot karna hai bicycle and bike ride se exit wala "Ayesha informed and they all started moving.

"Akhiri baar hai randeep...this is your last chance" after saying this raghav and sanjay left from there and randeep was rooted on his spot.

He was in love with her but about her he didnt knew.He wanted to be assured that yes she loved him too but what if it was just an onscreen love affection .Was he capable enough to tackle a heartbreak? What if she did love him but wasnt ready for committment as they were quite young at the moment.

With these thoughts he didnt realise when she came and called him out
"Randeep chalo...kya hua?" she asked politely

"Ashi..hi.." he said and then mentally kicked himself for being so nervous.

Ashi laughed a bit and said
"Theek ho na tum?aise kyu baat karre ho ...aur hum to subah se saath hai fir ye" hi" achanak kyu?

"Wo bas dimag theek se kam nahi karra hai "he reasoned with a silly smile.

"Its okay...I can understand ..."with that she started leaving when he held her hand to stop her.

"Mujhe miss karogi ?" he asked immediately while holding her hand.

"Her eyes misted but then she took back those tears and turned to him "Bilkul nahi..."  she replied.

His heart fell on this reply and he was about to leave her hand when she inched closer to him.

She kept her hand on his and said "Bauhat zyada..." looking straight into his eyes.

He smiled "Mai nahi karuga"

She stared at him angrily and then he corrected his sentence "Mai tumhe ek second ke liye bhi bhul hi nahi pauga"

She smiled and replied

"Ish kya filmy line maari hai "

They both laughed on this YJHD dialogue with their hands still entwined together.

At a distance,the four onscreen cupids were standing ,watching their favourite couple laugh and giggle over something.

"Subah se ab haste dekh rahi hoon Ashi ko" Ayesha informed with a smile.

"Randeep ko to subah se fursat hi nahi....wo birthday preparations mei itna kam karra hai ki uska dard acche se chupa raha hai" Sanjay said and raghav continued

"Humne baat karne ki koshish ki thi usse par wo pata nahi kyu Ashi se confess nahi karna chahta" raghav informed.

"Wo dar kyu raha hai...Ashi bhi to usse pyar karti hai" kristina replied and they all nodded in acceptance.

"We can only pray for a miracle today,its the last day of shoot ...its the end of our show but hopefully its a beginning of their love ....fingers crossed" Ayesha said with moist eyes and then they all left for the cycle scene shoot.

The scene was shot and then they all had to change for the dance sequence

"koi mil gaya and mujhko hui na khabar "

For that they wore the similar outfits as in the original song.When the last part of the song was shot where sameer pulls naina closer and joins his head with her lovingly , therevwas a strange feeling for both.The way he had pulled her to himself was something different ....it was as if he was tightly holding her to never ley her go. His pull was quick , his hold was tighter than ever Ashi could sence that he was scared of something ...may be scared of losing her.

If he improvised that scene , even she did the same and held him back firmly . She joined her forehead with his and then smiled at him lovingly. This gesture from her side elated him and he too passed his widest smile at her.

Everyone hooted and cheered for a succesful shot and finally the director announced something that broke their tiny hearts.

"So guys great shot , great performance , a great show it was....now its a wrap for Yeh un dinon ki baat hai for once and forever..."

Ashdeep's eyes misted up and so was everyone's reaction. The whole cast , crew and every member of the show was feeling a sadness overpowering their hearts and minds.

To cheer up the people over there , Raghav and Sanjay took the initiative and played nice good music .

They pulled everyone for a group dance and then they all danced on the latest bollywood party songs .

Once again , the offscreen Munna and pandit were successful in making everyone smile .

Randeep Ashi and their gang was dancing together . Ashi though was smiling and giggling but Randeep could see through her eyes , the same eyes which showed its hypnotic effect whenever sameer used to stare at her.

If it was Randeep who could see her pain , Ashi was neither the less .She could sense his restlessness , his empty eyes said it all. She knew he wanted to say something but then she didnt want her heart to lose hope if its not true.

The dj continued , their dance continued and suddenly the lights went off .There was silence all around as the music system stopped working .

Ashi tugged upon Ayesha's hand for support but she wasnt beside her. She called out for everyone around but no one responded. She was extremely scared and was about to scream when  a dim flame of light came in front of her sight .

And through the flame she could see the person who was holding the candle , it was Randeep ...her Ra...okay her sameer !

There was a strange passionate aura around the two. The scene looked like a recreation of the Samaina mount abu scene where naina was holding a candle for sameer. This time it was Randeep ! may be a role reversal she thought .

They both kept on staring at each other with the same lovefilled eyes. A strange sudden pull took him extremely close to her making her breathe heavily .

He inched towards her right ear abd murmured in a slow husky voice
"Happy Birthday Ashi "

The moment he said that , she smiled and they shared a brief eyelock after which the lights turned on and everyone hooted together , shouting continuous happy birthdays for her .

The gang rushed to hug her one by one .Infact everyone from the crew too side hugged her but except for one person whom she wanted to hug as tightly as possible ...may be for one last time .

The music started again , a beautiful chocolate cake thatvwas actually a photo cake of her pictures as Naina was placed in front of her .Chachiji ,Chachaji , Rakesh , Taiji , tauji , Arjun , Shefali , Kamya , Hema , pralay and Phulla bua ..Shanti maam , Vjn princi ..Jbr ,Sunaina ,Kartik and all the Mumbai costars ...and also their baby suman urf kiara was there with her real parents  to wish her onscreen mumma .Everyone specially visited the set to celebrate her birthday as she was attached with everyone .

Also Shashi maam and Sumeet sir with their daughters were present for her and for the last day celebrations .

There was a mixed feeling inside her heart , she was happy to see everyone but then she its gonna end now ...she wont be able to meet them on daily basis . Seeing her getting emotional , Ayesha kuttu hugged her and were joined by madhu maam and Abha maam . Chandresh sir and sachin sir asked her to cut the cake .

But before she could cut the cake , Randeep said " Cake cut karo isse pehle tumhare liye kuch hai ...udhar dekho "

As her eyes laid upon the big projector screen and she could see a video playing on it. The video had all pictures of her with everyone related to the show .Some beautiful , funny , pictures , some onscreen , some offscreen stuffs. Her tiktok duets with Madhu Ayesha kuttu and Abha maam. Her crazy fun with Chandresh sir . Her cut silly pictures with raghav and sanjay . Her funny pictures in bhalu wali dress , sipahi for romeo juliet play and the funny permed hair that looked much like chidiya ka ghosla. She stared at randeep as she knew it was his plan to add these pictures .

On seeing her angry glare , he very cutely mumbled a sorry while holding his one ear . See giggled on seeing this sameer style sorry and he too joined her .

The video was playing with a happy birthday song in background. All pics and stuffs were there but she was waiting for her pictures with him.Even the pictures  with crew members were added but not the Ashdeep / samaina pics .

Didnt he add their pictures ? her heart questioned.

Oh ya he must not have ..because of shipping may be ...her mind replied .

She looked down feeling a bit sad when a hang tugged her hand lightly. She stared at Randeep and he gestured her to look at the screen .

Her heart danced in joy on seeing their pictures onscreen and offscreen together aligned. A journey of Ashdeep was beautifully shown through that video , making her eyes well up with fresh tears.

He gestured her to smile and she obeyed .

Finally , she cutted the cake and fed him first which led to some teasings and fun.

She then fed everyone one by one and now some cake was left . Randeep stared at the cake and then gave a naughty smile to her direction. She understood his intentions as she remembered "bharo mang meri bharo " from the last year birthday . She tried to escape him and his plan but he signalled Ayesha and kristina to hold her. They stopped her from going and finally he smudged the cake all over her face recreating the old memory .On everyone's insistence , he sang
"Bharo mang meri " again making all laugh insanely .

The hootings and fun continued as she smeared the cake on him this time , taking her sweet revenge .

"Dekha ...tit for tat " Ashi whispered but the reply from him made her blush inwardly "To tum kyu nahi gaati ...bharo mang meri bharo " he said with a lopsided smile .

She smiled , blushed hard . Everyone clicked pictures with her and made her eat more cake while wishing her .

"Thank you so much to you all...is show se meri ek new family ban gai hai jo mere dil je bauhat kareeb hai ....har koi jo is show se juda hai wo mere dil se bhi juda hai...aur kal se chahe jitni bhi doori aaye aap sab mere kareeb rahege is dil mein ...I will miss you all ....I will miss my show .....Aur wo video bauhat pyara tha ..I loved it ."  She thanked them as she it was a joint creation.

They all hugged her and each other as now it was time for their farewell.

She looked at randeep who was already standing with misty eyes
she slowly whispered
"I will miss my sameer too " he looked at her surprised on her open confession and he understood the signal .

She became too emotional but didnt show outwardly . She excused herself saying "Mai face wash karke aati hoon "

The moment she left , Randeep turned to see her retreating figure .

Raghav Sanjay Ayesha and kristina moved towards him and said

"Randeep..akhiri kuch pal hai....keh de jo aaj tak nahi keh paya ...please ...its your last chance ...kyuki kal se koi sameer ...koi naina nahi hoge ...apni dil ki baat indirectly kehne ke liye ...kal se tum dono sirf Randeep aur Ashi rahoge ...."

Ayesha said making him look at her surprised but then the realisation dawned upon him as he looked around the set , the people who were hugging each other , saying happy yet sad goodbyes .

He knew that its either now or never and grinned wide at his friends who in return motivated him.

"Ja bhai ...accha mauka hai " raghav said as he gestured towards the make up room.

"All the best bhai " sanjay wished.

He hugged his offscreen mundit while Ayesha and kuttu was adoring their favourite trio.

"Tu tension mat le hum yaha sambhal lege " kuttu replied making him grin .

He immediately rushed inside the make up room but the sight that welcomed him broke his heart.

Ashi was on her knees , crying , sobbing really badly . He wanted to move near and take her into a bone crushing hug but he wanted to know about her thoughts so he stood behind the door to hear her words.

"Its ending...its has ended...sab khatam ho gaya ....kitni excited thi mai jab ye show sign kiya tha but ab ....pata nahi ab meri life mei kya hoga ...kaha wo roz ki excitement hogi shoot par aane ki ...usse milne ki ...."

His eyes widened in surprise as now he was sure about her feelings . He waited there to let her remove her pain through tears while she too continued .

On hearing her words his own eyes misted up thinking that she is so right . There will be no show ...no samaina ....no samundit ...no swapreena ....no yeh un dinon ki baat hai from the next morning.

"Pata nahi ab kaise milugi usse ....kaise dekhugi use ...show ka bahana bhi khatam ho jaeyga ....uski wo choti choti masti...uske wo pyar bhari batein...wo extra cheesy flirtings ...wo lehratein baal....wo pyari si smile ....aur wo nazrein jo sirf mujhe dekhti thi ...ya shayad naina ko ....jo bhi ho ...kal se ye sab nahi hoga meri life mein ...." She said making him blush in between his cries .

"Usse kabhi keh hi nahi paayi in do saalon mein but mujhe bhi usse pyaar hai ...aaj se nahi par pehli nazar se ....secret diaries mei jab dekha tha tab hi se par tab hum strangers the aur waise hi reh gaye..jab dobara mile to wo mujhe pehchan hi nahi paya ...buddhu kahi ka....kitne baar man kiya ki keh doon ...naina ki hi tarah even I love you from the very first sight ...par keh hi nahi paayi....kai baar to lagta hai ki ye sab ek fictional bubble tha ...ek khwaab jo ab tut chuka hai ...shayad main uske type ki hi nahi hoon ....kyu karega wo mujhse pyaar.....its just an onscreen relation ...nothing else ....may be I should just let it go ...let him go...meri feelings dil mei hi sahi hai...I dont want to hurt him ...."

Saying this she started crying and this time he too fell on the ground . He extended his hand towards her shoulder as her back was facing him .

The scene looked a recreated moment from the hospital confrontation scene but unlike sameer , Randeep kept a hand on shoulder making her jerk within a second .

She turned and was startled to see him crying with her . She was shocked beyond words as she realised  that he must have heard everything .She immediately wiped her tears and moved closer to him..

"Tum ro kyu rahe ho randeep ...kya hua " she asked while wiping his tears but the truth was even she couldnt hold her tears back that time .

He didnt say anything but took her into a bone crushing hug . At first she was surprised but then hugged him back as this was what she was craving for since so long .

"Kyu ro rahi ho tum Ashi..." he asked still her embrace .

"Wo mai to....wo show khatam ...bas islie thodi emotional ..." she murmured the words but he knew the truth now.

"Its okay Ashu...tumhe aur mujhe ..hum dono ko rone ka pura haq hai.....kyuki humare jo dard hai na wo bilkul ek jaise hai ....after all we share the same pain "

he assured her while rubbing her back but on hearing his words she started sobbing like a little baby in his arms .

"Randeep...kyu ..kyu hum hamesha sameer naina nahi reh sakte....show bandh hona zaruri tha kya ...kyu hua ...we were so attached to our character ...with each other ...par ab ..."  she stammered while speaking as her sobs continued.

He patted his back and assured her "We will always be attached ...show ke baad bhi hamesha ke liye ...."

He finally said the words which soothed her pain and she moved away from his embrace to look at him .

Tucking the lone hair strand behind her ears , he asked"Kabhi kaha kyu nahi in do saalo mei mujhse ?"

She understood his question which was like an indirect accuse and replied " Kehti to tum samajte kya ?..Shipping se to itna chidte ho...mere saath kuch der apna naam nhi sehen kar paate ...hamesha ke liye kaise jodte "

She with a tinge of seriousness and accussed him back but this time he was quick enough to reply

"JOD CHUKA HOON "  and just like sameer of the pooja di wedding phase , he slightly nodded his head to say again "JOD CHUKA HOON "

She stared at him startled and now it was his turn to confess

"Sirf tumhe hi naina ki tarah pehli nazar wala pyaar nahi hua tha Ashi ...Sameer ki hi tarah I started loving you since mount abu days ....usse pehle mai tumse dur rehta tha sach batau to sach mein lagta tha ki tum mere layak nahi ho ....par dheere dheere tumhari saadgi mujhe acchi lagne lagi aur tumhare saaf dil ne mera dil kab se jeetna shuru kar diya mujhe pata hi nahi chala ...Mount abu mein jab thand lagne ki wajah se mujhe fever aya tha tab tumne aur Nandini aunty ne mera kitna khyal rakha tha ...tumhare dil mei apne liye fikar dekhke mujhe tumse aur thoda pyaar ho gaya ....tumne mujhe hamesha tab tab sambhala hai jab jab mai jhansi mein rehti apni family ko miss karta tha ....tum sach mei pari ho Ashi"

His heartfilled confession melted her heart and she just embraced him again tightly.

She slowly whispered in his ears
Toh ?

He too smiled and whispered back in her ears..

"Toh ..I love you Ashu " ❤

She smiled and kissed his earlobe lightly. He felt heavenly with this slight gesture . He then  again whispered in her ears ..

"Toh ?"

And she whispered back

"Toh ..I love you too Randeep " ❤

The gang ie Raghav Sanjay Kristina and Ayesha had just entered to call them but smiled happily on seeing Ashdeep together.

They heard their constant I love yous in each other's embrace and couldnt stop from screaming

"And We love you too  "  they screamed and rush to Ashdeep who were sitting on the floor in each other's arms .

The gang joined them for a group hug and sang "Yeh un dinon ki baat hai " tittle song to tease the new couple and also to relive their golden days .

This time the farewell wasnt that saddening as now their farewell came with a Forever tag and not just mere goodbyes.

"Kehte hai har dard ka ek marham zaroor hota hai...us din ek dusre ke dard ka marham ban gae the Ashi aur Randeep. Wo do log jo kabhi proffessional co stars hua karte the wo ab jeevan saathi jo ban gae the "

Some love stories start in odd circumstances , in odd times  with some unexpected twists and turns but then if the love is true , the soulmates will surely find each other amidst those  complicated paths , the paths that later lead to beautiful destinations .

"An End of one but the beginning of a new journey "

Okay so this was one more Ashdeep os. I am sorry I cant help...I m too obsessed with them to avoid writing on them. My imagination runs wild when I start thinking so do forgive me for this over emotional..melodramatic and cheesy story . Many are not shippers here thats why I have added a only for shippers tag above .

Even if you didnt like it ....still please respond as it does have my hardwork.

Waiting eagerly !
