The dead body was sent for postmortem and they returned to Oberoi Mansion early morning. Mohit Rastogi requests grieving Sidharth to co-operate with his investigation. Sidharth nods and agrees to provide his statement.

Mohit: So Sidharth, Mrs. Rekha Oberoi arrived to the party in a different car and left in a different car. Any reason?

Sidharth: Haan, maa ki gaadi kharab ho gayi thi toh maine unko apni gaadi de di thi.

Mohit: Aur aap kyu nahi gaye usmein?

Sana narrowed her eyebrows at him.

Mohit: mera matlab aapki gaadi thi toh zaaheer si baat hai ki aapko bhi ussi mein travel karte par aap usmein gaye nahi. Iska reason?

Sidharth: (looked at Sana and Hrithik) Woh main party mein rukh gaya tha.

Mohit: Par vallet ke hissab se aap bhi kareeb kareeb ussi waqt party se nikal gaye the. Toh aap kaha they Mr. Sidharth?

Sana: Woh mere saath the JP, I mean Officer Mohit. Hum dono mere car mein beach ghumne chale gaye the.

Hrithik: (surprised) Huh? Sana?

Sana puts her head down and Mohit observes Hrithik and Sana.

Mohit: Hmm.. toh Sidharth aur aapka pehle se hi plan tha ki aap dono date pe jaane wale the, woh bhi aapke car mein?

Sana: Nahi, humara plan Sidharth ke car mein jaane ka tha par kyuki Sidharth ki mom Sidharth ka car le gayi thi, toh main bhaiyya ke car mein Sidharth ke saath chali gayi.

Mohit: Aur Hrithik aapko pata tha ki Sana aur Sidharth aapke car mein travel karne wale hai.

Hrithik: Nahi, maine car Sana ko ghar jaane ke liye di thi. Mujhe inke plan ke baare mein nahi pata tha. Aur agar pata hota toh main unn dono ko saath mein jaane hi nahi deta.

Mohit: Aisa kyu?

Hrithik: Kyuki mujhe shak tha ki Sana jab bhi Sidharth ke saath hoti hai koi na koi hadsa uske saath ho jata hai. Do din pehle Sana ki friend ki shaadi mein bhi jab kitchen ke pandal mein aag lagi thi toh dono usmein phase the aur baal baal bache the.

Mohit: Par aapne iske baare mein humein kuch nahi bataya. Kyu?

Hrithik: Kyuki Sana aur Sidharth ka maanna tha ki woh bas ek hadsa hai jo aksar shaadiyon mein hota rehta hai.

Mohit: Sana ki uss friend ka naam?

Hrithik: Sana Awasthi.

Mohit: Oh! Wahi jiska identity use karke Sana Oberoi Mansion mein gussi thi.

Hrithik: Hmmm..

Mohit: Ms. Sana kya aap humare constable ko apne friend ka address batayengi?

Sana: Sure, but she is on her honeymoon.

Mohit: Toh unka koi gharwala toh hoga na jisse hum shaadi ka album ya video maang sake.

Sana: Video abhi edit ho rahi hai next week tak mil jaayegi.

Hrithik: Woh shaadi Sana ne arrange kiya tha.

Mohit: Oh okay! Humein unedited video check karni hai. Aap uss photographer ka details de dijiye. (Sana nods) Haan toh Sidharth, kya aapki gaadi mein brake ki problem hai yeh jaante the aap?

Sidharth: Agar jaanta hota toh mein maa ko kabhi usmein nahi bhejta.

Mohit: Hmm.. point!! Aur aapke aur Sana ke alawa aur kisi ko pata tha ki aap dono uss gaadhi mein jaane wale the?

Sidharth: Nahi. It was between us only.

Mohit: Okay. Mr. Sidharth humne uss gaadi ki jaach kiya toh humein pata chala ki brake ki wire ko zabardasti kaata gaya tha. It was preplanned. Aur jo bhi iske peeche shaks hai woh jaanta tha ki aap aur Sana uss gaadhi mein jaane wale hai. Toh yeh yaa toh aapko marna chahta hai yaa phir Sana ko kyuki woh aapke saath jaane wali thi. Aur khooni chahta hai ki yeh ek haadsa lage taaki woh bach jaaye. Kya aap dono ko kisi pe shak hai?

Sidharth: None that I am aware of.

Hrithik: Iske pehle jo Sana pe attack hua woh Jay Dixit ne karaya tha. Ruhi is walking free toh I doubt ki kahi Ruhi ya phir Jay kisi se ye sab kara raha ho.

Mohit: Aapka dimaag bahut tez chalta hai Hrithik. Mujhe toh aap pe hi shak hai.

Sana: What? Excuse me Mohit. Mere bhaiyya meri jaan kyu lenge?

Hrithik: Meri behen meri jaan hai, uske liye jaan le sakta hoon aur de bhi sakta hoon, par usko kabhi nahi harm nahi hone dunga.

Mohit: (laughs) I was just joking.

The three glare at him.

Mohit: Sorry guys. But hum police waale apni saaye pe bhi shak karte hai. Toh please don't mind.

Sidharth: Aapka investigation khatam ho gaya?

Mohit: Haan. I need to question Aditya as well. Kaha hai woh?

Sidharth: Usko sarr dard kar raha tha toh he is resting in another room.

Mohit: Thik hai main khudh chala jaata hoon waha.

Mohit goes out of the room.

Hrithik: Sidharth, take care. Hum abhi nikalte hai.

Sidharth looks at Sana. Sana goes out with Hrithik.

Sana: Woh bhaiyya, main Sidharth ke saath rukungi. Unko meri zarurat hai.

Hrithik: Sana, tum mere saath ghar chal rahi ho. You are not safe.

Sana: Ye Sidharth ka ghar hai bhaiyya. I am safe here. Ghar ke andar kabhi mujhe koi harm nahi kiya gaya. Aur agar harm karna hi hai toh Malhotra Niwaas mein bhi kar sakta hai.

Hrithik: Tum samajh nahi rahi Sana.

Sana: Aap samajh nahi rahe bhaiyya. Woh mere pati hai aur main unse pyaar karti hoon. Iss waqt unko meri zarurat hai. Aap mujhe leke over protective ho raho ho. Chaho toh main mummy papa se bolke permission le sakti hoon kyuki unko pata nahi hai. Par shaadi toh shaadi hai bhaiyya. Main isse maanti bhi hoon aur nibhaungi bhi.

Hrithik: Tu badi ho gayi Sana. Ab tu mera bachcha nahi rahi, Sidharth ki patni ho gayi. Shayad mera ab tere pe woh haq bhi nahi raha. Thik hai, main chalta hoon. Tu bas apna khayal rakhna kyuki haq bhale hi na ho par mera pyaar abhi bhi waise hi hai aur tujhe kuch bhi hua na toh main kisiko nahi choddunga. Puri duniya ko aag laga dunga aur khudh ko bhi.

Sana: Bhaiyya, mera kehneka woh matlab nahi tha.

Hrithik: Bye Sana. Main uske mom ki antim darshan ko aaunga.

Hrithik went back to Malhotra Niwaas. While Sana stayed back at Oberoi Mansion.

Sana knocks at Aditya's room door.

Aditya: Maine kaha na Nandu, bhook nahi hai, jao yaha se.

Sana: (pushes the door) Adi, chalo khaana khaane.

Aditya: Tum Oberoi Mansion mein kya kar rahi ho? Mom ke jaane ka bahaana karke phir se Oberoi Mansion mein enter kar liya? Ya phir kahi tumne aur tumhare bhai ne milkar mere mom ki hatya kar diya.

Sana: Adi, kuch bhi mat bolo please. Main itni ghinouni harkat kyu karu? Sidharth aur main ek dusre se pyaar karte hai. Aur main unki patni bhi hoon. Iss waqt Sidharth ko meri zarurat hai. That's why I am here.

Aditya: Achcha, tumne mujhe bhi toh bola tha ki tum mujhse pyaar karti ho, bhool gayi aur phir mera kidnap karke mere hi bhai se shaadi kar li. Bhaiyya tumhare baaton mein aa sakte hai but main daawe aur experience ke saath keh sakta hoon ki tum mere bhai ke saat khel rahi ho. Aur meri mom tumhe aane nahi deti yaha toh tumne unhe apne raaste se hatta diya. Main tum dono dhokhebaaz bhai behen ko jaldi hatkadi lagwaunga.

Sana: Aditya, tumhe bhi pata hai maine tumhara kidnap tumhaari jaan bachane ke liye karwaya tha. Toh itni nafrat kaha se laaye tum mere liye?

Aditya: Tumne mere jaan bachane ke liye mera kidnap nahi karaya tha. Tumhe mere bhai se shaadi karni thi isiliye mera kidnap karaya. Warna sirf bachana hi maqsad tha toh tum police mein shikaayat karti.

Sana: Aadhi adhuri baat jaan ke tum judge kar rahe ho Aditya. Abhi ye time nahi hai discuss karne ka. Waise bhi tum kya sochte ho isse farak nahi padhta jab main jaanti hoon ki main sahi hoon.

She goes away from his room.

Sana takes food to Sidharth's room as he was mourning Rekha's death. She went close to him. Occupying the place beside him on the bed, she took a handful of food towards his mouth. He turned his face. She turned his face by holding his chin with other hand.

Sana: Chup chap khao (sternly)

He stared blankly into her eyes.

Sana: (puppy face and softly) Pleaaaassse khaao na..

He opened his mouth allowed her to feed him. She fed him the second bite then the third. It reminded him the first time he had fed her after forcefully marrying her.

He hugged her and sulked softly.

Sidharth: Tum Hrithik ke saath gayi nahi mujhe chodd ke?

Sana: Nahi gayi. Kyu jaati? Aap mere pati ho na?

Sidharth: I had thought main mom ko aur Aditya ko convince karke tumhe ghar le aaunga but mom toh choddke chali gayi. Kaash ki mein unhe gaadi nahi deta. But tab tum meri saath uss gaadi mein hoti aur.. (he got shiver down his spine)

Sana: Sidharth humein sach mein pata lagana hai ki woh kaun hai joh tumhe maarna chahta hai. Aise weak nahi padhna aapko. Humein uss kaatil ko saza dilaana hai. Main aapke saath hoon Sidharth.
.
.

Few days later Mohit calls Sana, Sidharth and Hrithik to the police station and they all assemble as requested. Mohit plays a CCTV footage of parking lot and a video recording clip from Awasthi's wedding.

Mohit: CCTV footage mein, ek burqa pehni aurat Sidharth ke gaadi ke pass nazar aayi. Thik waise hi burqa pehne iss shaadi ke video mein bhi hai. Kya aap mein se koi isse jaanta hai?

Sidharth and Hrithik nods no.

Sana: Main isse shaadi mein mili thi. Iska pair ke neeche burqa fasske gir gayi thi kitchen area ke paas. Toh maine isse uttakar cold drink diya tha.

Mohit: Kya aapne uska chehra dekha tha? Kyuki CCTV ya video mein kahi bhi uska chehra dikh nahi raha.

Sana: Haan, woh cold drink peene ke liye usne jab naqab uttaya tha tab maine uska chehra dekha tha.

Mohit: Aap uska hooliya batayengi toh hamaara artist uska sketch ready kar sakta hai.

Sana nods. She sits with the sketch artist and describes the features of her face. Once ready, Mohit looks at it.

Mohit: Sana do you know her?

Sana: Nahi, Maine isse pehle kabhi nahi dekha. I thought she was Ravi jiju's guest.

Mohit: Sidharth aur Hrithik, kya aap iss aurat ko pehchante hai?

Mohit displayed the sketch to them. Both their faces showed a shocked reaction.

Sidharth: Devina Panchal?

Hrithik looks at Sidharth in shock.
