Happy New Year SidNaaz and SidNaaz lovers. Siddhu, I miss you darling. You will always be in my heart no matter how many calendar changes in my life.

________________________________

Sidharth heads towards the exit of the park. Sana was standing on the footpath waiting for Hrithik to come when a car speeds to run over her but she flinches from her place in the nook of time. The car misses and hits a park's fence. Sidharth rushes towards Sana who had slipped and fallen on the ground.

Sidharth: (picks her up) Sana, are you alright?

Sana nods yes with a petrified face. Sidharth turns around to catch hold of the driver but before he could do so the driver of the car escapes from their sight.

Sana shrieks as her already fractured hand was hurt again.

Sidharth: Oh hell!! Sana let's go to the doctor.

He says by holding her other arm.

Sana: (yells) Leave me. I don't need your fake sympathy. (Shrieks holding her plastered hand)

Sidharth: It isn't fake sympathy, (sternly) I am genuinely concerned.

Sana: Why would you be? Kaun lagte ho tum mere?

Sidharth: (stares at her) Woh baad mein decide karenge. First you need to see the doctor.

Sana: Bola na zarurat nahi hai. Mere bhaiyya thodi hi der mein aate hi honge mujhe mere ghar le jaane.

He glares at her. Her face was red and her nerves on forehead had popped out as the pain was evident on her face.

Hrithik arrives in his car and was horrified to see his little sister in pain.

Hrithik: Sana, kya hua?

Sidharth: Samjhao isse Hrithik. Ispe koi gaadi chadaane wala tha aur yeh gir gayi. Isko doctor ke paas le jana padega.

Hrithik: Sidharth, I think you should leave. I will take care of my sister. Jab se tumse shaadi kiya hai isne, yeh teesri baar ispe jaan leva hamla hua hai. Please meri behen ki jaan baksh do, ussey dur raho. (Folds his hands) Chalo bachcha, gaadi mein baiton.

The police arrives as someone had informed them about the accident. Looking at Sana, the police takes her statement along with Sidharth and few others before letting them go. They seize the car and tow it.

Hrithik takes Sana to the car and makes her sit beside him. Sidharth and Sana look at each other as the car passes.

Sidharth immediately follows them and pulls over the car at the hospital. He overhears what the doctor had to say about her health.

Doctor: Utter carelessness! You can't afford to hurt over and over again on the same arm. Anyways, we have to put a cast, she will have to wait a little longer than earlier to recover. But you have to take proper care of yourself this time. Nurse aake casting karke jaayegi thodi der mein.

The doctor leaves.

Hrithik: Tujhe bola tha maine yeh sab mein math padh. Todh di na usne shaadi? Meri baat maan ke pehli hi ghar aa jati mere saath toh yeh sab toh nahi hota. Neha ka jaane ka gham mein ek saal pagalkhaane reh chuka hu, agar tujhe kuch hua na toh is baar pagal khaane nahi seedha samsaan chala jaunga. Samjhi?

Sana: Yeh kya keh rahe ho bhaiyya? Aapko pata hai na ki aap meri jaan ho..

Hrithik: To tujhe bhi pata hona chahiye ki tu bhi meri jaan hai. Bahut bharosa kar liya tune Sidharth pe. Main hi galat tha, sochta tha ki woh sach mein tujhe chahta hai par teri puri baat sune bina usne tujhe apne zindagi se nikaal diya.

Sana: Main uski zindagi mein uninvited gayi thi na bhaiyya, toh mujhe toh dhakke khaane hi the.

Sidharth felt guilty listening to this from outside. Someone pats him from the back. Sidharth turns around to look at the person.

Sidharth: Jitesh Patel?

JP: Aap yaha kya kar rahe ho?

Sidharth: Woh Sana.. andar.. Par tum yaha? Aaj toh shayad tumhara birthday hai na?

JP: Main Sana se milne aaya tha..

He looks behind JP there were two cops.

Cop 1: Aap bhi chalo andar

Sidharth: Main? Nahi..

Cop 2: Aji chaliye na..

Cop 2 pulls him by his arms and all four enter the room. Sana and Hrithik looks at them in surprise. Sidharth puts his head down in embarrassment.

Hrithik: Inspector, humne apna bayaan already de diya hai.

Cop 1: Hume pata hai. Kuch aur puchtach karne aayein hai kyuki humne uss gaadi ke driver ko arrest kar liya hai jisne Sana Malhotra pe jaan leva hamla karna chaaha.

Hrithik: Kaun tha woh?

Cop 1: Ek pyaada tha.. bhaade ka tattu..

Sana, Sidharth and Hrithik were shocked.

Cop 1: Shocked?? Neha Oberoi ki case study se humko pata chala ki uski maut koyi suicide nahi thi balki ek murder thi.. but iski jaach karne ke liye humare paas koi leads hi nahi the.

Neha, Hrithik ke office mein kaam karti thi aur achaanak uske maut ke baad, Hrithik Malhotra, mental shock ke treatment ke liye mental asylum chale jaate hai. Par aisa kya reason tha jisse ki Hrithik ko apne ek maamuli employee ke maut se mental shock laga?

Humne lagataar 1 saal Hrithik ko mental asylum mein track kiya ki kahi Hrithik ko kuch pata ho iss case ke baare mein. Hrithik ke thik hone ke baad uski behan Sana Malhotra MBA graduate hone ke baavajudh, doobara Sana Awasthi ke naam se MBA college mein admission leti hai. Iski investigation toh banti thi toh undercover agent Mohit Rastogi bane Jitesh Patel..

Yet another shock to the three.

Sana: JP?

Mohit (JP): Yes, Ms. Sana Malhotra. JP nahi Mohit Rastogi. Bhes sirf aap akeli nahi badal sakti, hum bhi badal sakte hai. (Takes of his spectacles)

Sana gulps and puts her head down.

Mohit: Toh phir meri nazar aap pe thi. Lecturer Sahoo ne aapki insult kiya aur agle din uski maut ho gayi. Reason Asthama Attack. Phir aapke saath ek interviewer ne badtameezi ki aur agle din woh phaasi laga kar suicide kar leta hai. Humari nazar toh aap pe humesa rehti thi toh woh kaun tha jisne murders kiye? Aditya ki aggressive ke wajah se humare suspects list mein woh no. 1 pe tha, dusra number pe aapke bhai Hrithik aur teesre saksh the Sidharth kyuki aap unhe aksar wedding gate crash mein milti thi.. kyu?

Sidharth and Sana exchange stare at each other.

Mohit: Aap lagatar dono bhaiyon ke touch mein thi. Aur achaanak Ruhi Dixit ke Diwaali party ke baad aap aur Sidharth milna band kar dete hai. Phir aaya ek twist, Aditya ki kidnapping. Aur Hrithik ne kisi lawaaris dead body ko Aditya ke belongings ke saath car crash kara kar yeh saabit karna chaha ki woh dead body Aditya ki hai. We played along even though we knew that woh Aditya ki laash nahi thi.

Sana ki Sidharth se shaadi. Phir Sana pe pehla jaan leva hamla. Par phir Sidharth superman ki tarah aakar Sana ko bacha lete hai. Kyu Mr. Superman? I mean Sidharth. Kya aapko pata hai ki kisne woh jaan leva hamla kiya tha?

Sidharth: Mujhe kaise pata hoga?

Mohit: Achcha? Toh aapne uss driver ko paise kyu diye?

Sidharth: Aaa.. aaa...

Sana and Hrithik was dumbfounded.

Hrithik: Sidharth? Tum? Toh tum Sana ki jaan lena chahte the?

Mohit: Nahi.. Yeh stunt tha warna Sidharth usko bachate kyu? Kyu Sidharth?

Sidharth: Woh.. woh.. mujhe laga ki Sana ke saath har waqt rehne ke liye yahi bahana kaam aayega. Is haadhse ke baad se isko roz college drop aur pickup karne laga. Aur mere saath office mein bhi le jata tha..

Hrithik: Yeh kaisa betuka sa reason hua? Kahi Sana ko kuch ho jata toh? Aur coffee mein zeher aur aaj ka accident kyu karaya?

Sidharth: Woh dono maine nahi karaya.

Mohit: Ek minute, ek minute! Police wale hum hai, aap apna sawaal jawab baad mein kar lena. Pehle toh kuch time ke liye hum bhi gumrah ho gaye the. Phir jab Aditya wapis lauta tab kahaani mein twist aaya. Haan toh Ms. Sana, aap batao aapne Aditya ka proposal kyu accept kiya jab ki aap sidhe sidhe Sidharth se shaadi kar sakti thi? Sidharth toh anyways aap pe fida the..

Sana: Maine Ruhi ki Diwali ki party mein kuch suna tha..

Flashback:

Sidharth gets a call from his client and he goes to attend it.

Sana: Aaaahhh.. Uuuffff... Uuuffff

Aditya: Kya hua?

Sana: Mirch khaa liya.. muh jal raha hai..

Aditya: Rukho.. (gets a glass of juice for her) yeh piyo..

Sana gulps the juice in hurry spilling some on her dress.

Sana: Satyanas, ek aur musibat. Rukho Adi, main isse dhoke aati hoon warna daag reh jaayega..

She goes into washroom to clean it. While she was about to go out, she overhears Ruhi talking to someone.

Ruhi: Main try toh kar rahi hoon na.. ab woh khudh Sana ke peeche ghum raha hai toh main kya karu?

Jay: Sunn meri behna, Aditya choti machli hai, badi machli ko fasaao..

Ruhi: Matlab?

Jay: Sidharth!! Badi Machli..

Ruhi: But woh Aditya se kahi jyada smart hai, woh itna bhola bhala nahi hai..

Jay: Wahi toh, iske liye humein proper jaal bichana padega.. Tu Sidharth ke saamne Aditya ke saath pyaar se pesh aana, jisse usse lage ki tu aur Aditya saath hai. Do mahine baad hum Aditya ko maar denge, aur tum Sidharth ko emotionally yakeen dilao ki tum Aditya ki bachche ki maa banne wali ho. Apne pyaare bhai Aditya ki aakhri nishaani ko bachane ke liye Sidharth tumse shaadi kar lega. Sidharth ki saari daulat pe tu raaj karegi aur Aditya ko hissa dene ka bhi sawaal nahi utthta kyuki woh toh parlok sidhaar jaayega. Samjhi?

Ruhi: Par main pregnant kaise banungi?

Jay: Sana Aditya mein interested nahi hai. Toh tere paas samay hai ki tu Aditya ko vash mein kar sake. Par tujhe sab jaldi jaldi karna padega. Samjhi? (She nods) Chal jaa ab.

Sana walks out of the washroom and goes to Aditya. To her surprise, Aditya proposes her. Sana says yes to him.

Flashback ends

Hrithik: Jay Dixit was plotting to kill Aditya?

Sana: Haan bhaiyya aur maine Aditya ka proposal isiliye accept kiya taaki uske jaan par se khatra tal jaaye. Maine unka plan khudh use kiya jaha Sidharth ko yakeen ho gaya ki Aditya mujhse pyaar karta hai aur usko kidnap karke Sidharth se shaadi kar liya. Kyuki mera maksad unko tadpana tha maarna nahi.

Mohit: Sana ki yahi galti khudh Sana ki jaan ki dushman bann gayi. Jay Dixit peshe se lawyer hai, uska dimaag tedha chalta hai. Sana ne socha ki Aditya ko kidnap karke unka idea fail kar degi toh Ruhi aur Jay chup bait jaayenge but aisa nahi hua. Ruhi ne Sana aur Sidharth ke khilaaf Aditya ke kaan bharne shuru kiye. Plan wahi tha jaha Ruhi Aditya ko apne vash mein karna chahti thi, aur Jay Dixit Sana ko marna chahta tha kyuki Sana ke marne ke baad Sidharth will be available again. Toh usne canteen main Sana ke coffee mein zeher milaya par Sana ki kismat achchi thi woh bach gayi.. phir jab Sana ka haat fracture hua toh uska ghar se baahar nikalna band ho gaya.. toh mujhe talaash thi ek mauke ki, xki ek baar Sana ghar se baahar aaye, taaki main mujrim ko range haat pakad saku. Toh maine Aditya ko kaha ki Sana aur Sidharth ko mere birthday party pe bulaaye. Par Sana ne aane se inkaar kar diya. But mauka mujrim ke haat tab laga jab Sidharth aur Sana park gaye. Driver ko chaar dande pade toh usne Jai Dixit ka naam ugal diya.

Sidharth: Par Lecturer Sahoo aur woh interviewer kaise mare?

Mohit: Smart question! Sahoo ko Jay Dixit ne maara kyuki usne Sana se pehle Ruhi ki bhi insult ki thi college main. Aur rahi baat us interviewer ki toh usne sach mein personal problems ke chalte suicide ki thi so it was just a coincidence ki uski maut Sana ke incident ke baad hua.

Sidharth: Jitesh.. sorry mera matlab inspector aapne bataya Neha ka murder hua tha, toh woh kisne karaya?

Mohit: Woh hum abhi pata nahi laga paaye.

Hrithik: Aap itne yakeen ke saath kaise keh sakte hai ki Neha ne khudhkushi nahi kiya?

Mohit: Kyuki post mortem ki report ke hissab se uski maut upar se girne se nahi huyi, uski maut sarr par vaar karne se hua tha.. Filhaal humne Ruhi aur uske bhai ko arrest kar liya hai. Neha ka case pe chaan bin jaari rahegi. Hum doondhne kuch aur gaye the aur haat kuch aur hi laga. Aap sabne milke case ko bahut complicate kiya. Mujhe jo janna tha main jaan gaya, ab baaki hum court mein milenge kyuki aap sab iss case ke key witness ho. Tab tak aap mein se koi iss sheher ke baahar nahi jaa sakta.

They nod in agreement and the cops leave.
