Shehnaaz family welcome them warmly, doing arti, putting garland around their neck, feeding them sweets. Shehnaaz mother pulled Sidharth's nose, and Sidharth showed fake annoyance making everyone chuckled. After completing some welcome ritual Shehnaaz family escort them towards the mandap and the sitting arrangements for them. Shehnaaz uncle duo made Sidharth sit on mandap stool for the "var puja" which took place before brides arrival. When the ladies asked his family members to sit in sitting arrangement place. All sits when all noticed Sidharth's mother Damini was missing. Shehnaaz both uncle aunty asked Sandhya to asked where she is to Sidharth's father. She nods silently.

"Ji? Arnav bhai sahab, Damini bhabi ji nahi ayi? Sab puch rahe hai. Tabiyat toh thik hai uski?" ShM asked worriedly

"Sandhya bhabi ji, woh hamare mein ladke ki maa shaadi nahi dekhe. Iss liye nahi aie woh." SF informed her

"Oooh! Accha! Bhabi ji waha akeli hogayi phir toh." ShM said worriedly

"Chinta mat kariye ap bhabi ji. Har 2min mein hume call karegi ab. Update lene ke liye. Akeli hoke bhi akeli nahi hogi woh." Koel bua said chuckling making her smile

"Chalo yeh accha hai phir toh. Apko.. Naksh beta sabko welcome drink do. Aur pucho kya chahiye." ShM said ordering him

"Ji, moti kaki." Naksh replied immediately get in action

"Bhabi ap zyada stress mat lijiye. Ab toh hum family hai." SF requested her to realx seeing her stressed for the wedding arrangements

"Koshish karungi bhai sahab." ShM said folding hands

"Mummy! Apne bete pe bhi nazar dalo. Kya sirf beti ki chinta hai." Sidharth said making her giggle

"Hayee! Mera bete ko kaise bhul sakta hoon? Aaj toh jamai ban rahe ho tum. Bohot pyaara lag rahe ho tum Sidharth. Yeh topor bohot juch raha hai tum pe. Raja lag rahe ho." ShM said caresing his face lovingly

"Ap bhi sexy lag rahi ho saree mein." Sidharth winked making her blush

"Chup! Kuch bhi bolta hai. Puja pe dhiyan do. Tumhari patni ati hogi kuch der mein. Hmm!" ShM said caresing his face last time before going towards his family to talk with them

"Jamai ji, yeh lijiye." Hemanth gifted him new clothes for Potto Bostro (Groom clothes) ritual.

Sidharth took it with a polite smile and kept it on his lap. The priest start the "Var puja" and Sidharth got engrossed performing it. When only one question was roaming continuously it his mind "Kab ayegi tu Sanu?"

On other side, Shehnaaz was desperately waiting when "Var puja" will end. As only then she can go outside for marriage. Will be able to see Sidharth. When her sister duo and Sidharth cousin sisters Mishti and Mohua was also present and was giggling seeing her getting desperate for marriage.

"Khatam hua var puja? Check karo guys." Sana asked desperately playing with her shakha pola

"Desperate soul. Nahi moti behen. Kuch der baad jana hai. Waise yeh shakha pola bohot pyaara hai. Aur yeh mukut bhi. Queen lag rahi ho ap." Bhumi said adoring her

"Haan! Sach main bou di. Ap Gujarati hoke bhi Bengali dulhan lag rahi ho. Banarasi saree, shakha pola, mukut, phir jate waqt paan se muh cover karogi ap. Hayee! Dada bhai will be gone. He will be shocked seeing you in Bengali bridal look." Mohua teased her making her blush

"Main bohot khush hoon jo mummy aur Maa Baba ne mil ke decide kia dono tradition ke rituals mix kar ke karenge. Yeh shaadi shuda aurte pehenti hai. Main yeh shakha pola hamesha pehenne wali hoon, Sidharth ke naam ka." Sana said blushing hard

"Ohoo! Koie toh rok lo iss blush ko." Mishti teased her, Sana blushed more and others giggled.

As the Var puja got ended, priest asked Shehnaaz family to bring the bride. As Shehnaaz have no material uncle (Mama), Shehnaaz cousin brothers and friends took her till mandap sitting on a small stool. Her face was covered with a pair of batel leafs. Sidharth stands up getting shock seeing it. As they were supposed to to marry in Gujarati tradition. His shocked expression was captured by his cousins who were chuckling softly. When his aunts were doing ulu to keep the evil eyes away from them.

"Are they going to do Saath Paak and Shubho Drishti now?" Sidharth grasped in shock

As they comes on mandap stage with her, her brothers and friends walked around Sidharth for 7 times with her for doing the "Saath Paak" ritual. After completing 7 rounds, they stopped infront of Sidharth. It's time for "Shubho Drishti". The time they will see them for the first time before marriage in their wedding dresses.

"Shehnaaz ab tum yeh paan patte hata do. Aur Sidharth ko dekh sakti ho." Deepa Mami informed her

She nods before removing the batel leafs, and both look each other smiling and blushing. When the womas were doing ulu again.

"Beautiful." Sidharth said

Sana blushed looking down in response. All chucked seeing her reaction. Then comes Var mala. SidNaaz was asked to put the garland when Shehnaaz was still sitting on the stool (pidi). They nods and exchange the garlands doing some teasing. Trying level best not let other one to wore it. When the ladies did ulu every time they made each other wore the flower garland (mala). It's a symbol of acceptance of one another.

Now they were sitting infront of holy fire and Shehnaaz uncle Hemanth and Kokila aunty came for "Kanya Daan". But before that Hemanth tied their hands with a sacred thread to do "Sampradan" ritual. Which is also kanya daan in Bengali tradition. Then both Hemanth and Kokila did the kanya daan of her giving her hand to Sidharth. Taking a promise from him to keep Shehnaaz happy always.

His uttariay and her saari was knot by Mohua for phere now.

"Abhi 4 yah 7 phere lenge hum?" SidNaaz asked in unison as in Gujarati they took only 4 where in Bengali they took 7.

"4." Her family said

"7." His family said

"Ab kya 11 phere le?" SidNaaz said in unison rolling their eyes in response listening their reply.

"4 le lo. Kuch hamare hisab se ho." Devraj said, her family agreed

"Fine." Sidharth said

"Kya fine? 7 janam ke 7 phere le lo." Koel said firmly using her logic, now his family agreed.

"Yeh sahi hai. 7 lete hai." Sana agreed with her suggestion

"Yaha kya mazak chal raha hai? Jo lena le lo. But jaldi kariye ap log. Mujhe ek aur shaadi mein jana hai 40min baad. Upar se muhrat nikal raha hai." The priest said making everyone mortified

"7" Shehnaaz family said

"Nahi 4" Sidharth family said this time

All frowned with their response.

"Toss kar lete hai. Hmm? Sidharth sikke hai tumhare paas?" Sana asked making everyone grasped

"Haan. Yeh lo." Sidharth said giving her a coin

"Heads matlab 4, tales matlab 7. Hmm? Pandit ji ap karo toss." Sana gave him the coin

"Heads. 4 phere. Chaliye ab khare hojaiye dono phere ke liye." Pandit ji informed

SidNaaz quickly got up for phere, and started to take phere walking around the holy fire hand in hand. When Pandit ji was chanting mantas and others were showing flowers and Sidharth house females were doing ulu all the time. They stopped after 4 rounds, Naksh and Maan gave Shehnaaz some puffed rice (muri/bhel) to throw it into the holy fire. This ritual called "Anjali" in Bengali wedding.

After Anjali ritual, pandit ji asked them to sit. As it's time for Sindoor Daan and Ghomta. In Bengali wedding a new saree usually put on brides head during Sindoor Daan that that's called "Ghomta". Sidharth puts sindoor on her hairline looking opposite direction as Koel bua instructed him to do. It's basically the groom can't see while putting sindoor. He can see after it as his wife directly. As they don't have mangalsutra rasam. Because of not seeing Sidharth put a huge amount of sindoor on her hairline plus on her nose. All giggled seeing it.

"Beautiful wife." Sidharth said making her smile shyly after he was done with sindoor daan.

"Mangalsutra pehnaiye ab." Pandit ji instructed

Sidharth nods and made her wore the mangalsutra.

"Shaadi sampanna hua. Aaj se ap dono pati patni huye." Pandit ji declared

They beamed happily when others were congratulating them. Then Pandit ji asked them to take elders blessing. They nods, rose up from their places and started to seek blessings from both families elders.

"Khush raho dono. Suhagan raho." SF blessed them happily

"Maa?" Sana asked anxiously not finding her

"Hotel mein hai." SF replied

Guests went to have dinner. But Shehnaaz cousins hold SidNaaz back for "Joota Churai Rasam". Seeing this Sidharth's cousins also stayed back with them to support Sidharth.

"Jiju paise do, nahi toh bhul jao apna joota." Bhumi demand

"Yes!" Others said in unison

"Kitna chahiye? Bolo deta hoon." Sidharth asked casually

"Dada bhai? Kya ap bhi? Thoda toh bhao tol karne do. You're a businessman. Loss karna hai apko?" Shubho said, others hooted for him.

"Arey? But!?" Sidharth was cut by Nitya

"Jiju! Main apki cute aur favourite saali hoon. Mere liye nahi dengi ap? Mujhe new makeup kits chahiye. Moti behen aur Bhumi behen ka hai but meri nahi hai. Aur ek new phone bhi. Please waise hisab kar ke dena ap." Nitya demanded cutely making him chuckled

"Haan thik hai. Main tumhe sidha phone aur makeup kit dunga paise nahi. Thik hai." Sidharth said making her happy and excited

"Yes!! My jiju is best!!" Nitya said excitedly

"Bhumi, Maan, Naksh tum logo ko kya chahiye?" Sidharth asked directly

"Arey? Dada bhai kya ap bhi!?" Naksh said in disbelief

"Tu chup reh. Bolo tum log. Aur khatam karo yeh sab. She is hungry. Even me too. We are fasting remember?" Sidharth said pointing Sana, she nods making a puppy face

"Hume ek family trip pe jana hai. Means Patels and Roy family. Including Parth, Devika and their parents. Abhi nahi baad mein. Hume accha laga sab se mil ke. Baat kar ke. We want to spend more time with each other." Bhumi said eying Parth making him smile meekly which didn't go unnoticed by Sana

"Deal done." Sana said making them happy

"Haan but hamare honeymoon ke baad. Best December mein jayenge. Tum log sab jagah decided kar lena agle 8 mahine mein. Hmm!" Sidharth said earning a death glare from Sana and others laughed

"Accha abhi kuch khana kha lo. Dono ne vrat rakha tha pura din. Aur tum log bhi kha lo. Phir masti karna bashor raat ka. Hmm!" Kinjal called everyone for dinner

Shehnaaz family escort everyone toward the food arrangement place to have dinner. After dinner it was time for bashor raat. It's Bengali wedding ritual. Basically the newly married couple stays a night at brides place/house. They stay awake all night and have fun like talking, singing, play fun games with their siblings. The young generation basically. They can't stay together in a room. Next morning they usually have bidaai.

(I SAW IT IN BENGALI TV SERIALS. BAKI MEKO PATA NAHI. 😭🙏🏻)

"Dada bhai, ek gaana gao ap." Shubho requests and all hooted for it

"Shubho I can't sing. But your bou di can. She is a good bathroom singer. Right Shehnaaz?" Sidharth smirked making her embarrassed with the word "bathroom"

"Wow! Moti behen. Apko gaana gana ata hai. Phir toh hum zarur sunenge. Please gaaiye naa." All her cousins said in unison excitedly

"Haan. Bou di please. Dada bhai toh kaam ke nahi nikle. Ap gaa do." Parth said making Sidharth frown and others giggle

"Thik hai. Ahem! Ahem!!" Saying she started to sing closing her eyes

Ei Raat Tomar Amar (This night is yours & mine)
Oi chand tomar amar (That moon is yours & mine)
Shudhu dujoner (Just the two of them)

"Omg!!! Bangla gaan!!!" Sidharth and his cousins grasped in shock listening her singing a Bengali song.

Shehnaaz giggled seeing their reaction. When her cousins were also in deep shock. Without replying to them she continued singing. She learned this song with much difficulty. Taking a week.

Ei raat shudhu je gaaner (This night is only about that song)
Ei khon e duti praner (This moment belongs to two souls)
Kuhu kujoner (In Kuhu Kujan)
Ei raat tomar amar (This night is yours & mine)

Tumi achho ami achhi tai (You are so I am)
Anubhobe tomare je pai (I feel you)
Tumi achho ami achhi tai (You are so I am)
Anubhobe tomare je pai (I feel you)
Shudhu dujoner (Just the two of them)

Ei raat tomar amar (This night is yours and mine
Oi chand tomar amar (That moon is yours & mine)
Shudhu dujoner (Just the two of them)

As she finished singing all clapped for her happily and hooted for her. Sana smiled happily seeing everyone impressed with her singing and effort.

"Thank you all." Sana said beaming

"Jiju you should do something now. Nahi toh Nitya ki naak kat jayegi apke wajah se." Maan said making everyone laugh

"Kya karu? I can play guitar." Sidharth said sadly as there's no guitar now.

"Hmm? Ek shayeri yah kuch bolo. Kavita?" Mohua suggested, all agreed.

"Kavita? Shayeri?" Sidharth gulped nervously as he don't know nothing

"Bou di ke liye. Praise her beauty dada bhai." Devika said and others agreed making Shehnaaz blush hard

"Fine. Umm! Kya bolu?" Sidharth said in confusion how to describe her beauty as words can't describe her beauty. She's beautiful in and out.

His words made Shehnaaz angry and others looked at him in pity thinking what Shehnaaz will do to him now for this response.

"Wow! Itna sochna par raha hai tujhe meri tareef karne ke liye. Main tujhe beautiful nahi lagti kya? Jo itna waqt lag raha hai. Itna kya soch raha hai kabse? Haan?" Sana said angrily seeing him in deep thought for last 5mins

"Sanu seriously? Yaar main yeh soch raha hoon kaise teri beauty ko describe karu? Kyu ki meri Sanu duniya ki sabse khubsurat ladki hai. Sabse beautiful bride hai meri. Words kam pad jayega teri tareef karne ke liye. Tu dikhne mein jitni khubsurat hai. Tera dil, woh usse bhi zyada khubsurat hai. Jo sabke bade mein sochta hai. Sabke bhalai ke liye sochta hai. Sabko itna pyaar deti hai sab apne ap tere fan ban jate hai. Itni acchi hai tu. Mere Mom Dad ka kitna khayal rakhti hai tu. Abhi tu khud naa khake pehle Mom ke liye specially sare khana behja tune khud pack kar ke driver se. Like an ideal bahu. Dad ko diabetics hai. Medicine lena hota hai raat ko. Zaldi kahna hota hai. Tune specially Mummy ko aur tere family ko bol ke rakha tha ki Dad ko zaldi khana de dena. Woh bhuka nahi reh sakte hai. Aur beech beech mein puch lena unko kuch chahiye yah nahi. Dad thode sweet kha sake iske liye tune separately less sweet wale dessert banwaya unke liye. Taki woh miss naa kare jo baki ke liye hai. Isse pata chalta hai tu Dad se kitna pyaar karti hai. Sach mein tune mere Dad ko tere papa ka jagah dia hai. I'm grateful for it. Phir mere family walo ke liye tune ZID kar ke chicken aur mutton banawaya cook se. Kyu ki unko pasand hai. Jab ki tera family vegetarian hai. Isse pata chalta hai tune unko already apna bana lia hai. Apna family man chuki hai. Manik kaka aur Anirban fuppa ji ko BP ka problem hai. Toh unke liye kam namak wala khana banwaya har bar jab bhi aye hai. Mummy aur Kinjal maasi ko ek jaisa pyaar karti hai. Maasi ko feel nahi hone deti ki Mihir bhai yaha nahi hai. Apne bhai behen ko kitna pyaar karti hai. Ekdam unki maa banke sab karti hai. Finally! Mera kitna khayal kakhti hai tu. Tujhe jab pata chala main cigarette pita hoon aur kabhi kabhi drinks bhi. Apna kasam de dia mujhe. Taki main pina chod doon. Mere health ke liye kia. Haan! Tera apna selfish reason hai woh alag baat hai. Tu mere saath ek lambi zindegi jeena chanta hai. Yeh choti choti chize notice karna aur woh dhiyan mein rakh ke karna yahi tujhe special aur beautiful banata hai. Ek beautiful insaan banata hai. Main toh shocked hoon tujhe dekh ke, jo tu itna sab kuch yaad kar ke karti hai. Sach mein bohot lucky hoon main jo tu mili mujhe Sanu. Bhagwan ko thanks bolna chanta hoon jo unhone tujhe mere liye banaya hai. Mujhe moka dia tera pati hone ka. Hamesha ke liye iss pavita rishte mein bandne ke liye. I love you Sanu. Siddhu loves only his Sanu. You're beautiful in and out." Sidharth said making her an emotional mess and others felt happy seeing the way he described her inner beauty.

"I love you Sidharth." Sana cried hugging his arm tightly

"Okay! Rona band kar. Makeup kharab hojayega. Phir bhootni lagegi tu." Sidharth teased her making her and others giggle

"Aisa kuch nahi hai. Bas emotional hojayi hoon." Sana said wiping tears immediately

"Chalo ab tumlog entertain karo hume." Sidharth ordered all nods positively

Later, they had a great time singing, dancing a little and played few fun games.
