Update 71


Haldi ceremony was a great fun at both places. Arshi were not allowed to meet and thus driving both of them crazy. How they both wanted to meet each other. Now when the marriage day i so near, staying away from each other was something next to impossible for them. Each passing second was like a year to them. Finally at night they get a chance to call each other and not missing this wonderful opportunity, Arnav called khushi as soon as he reached his room and to his surprise, she picked up the call at first ring. After talking about all day's event and wishing the time to pass away quickly both dozed off to sleep. 
The day quickly passed away and soon in afternoon Khushi has started getting ready. Famous makeup artist and hair stylist as well as dress stylists were on her commands. She indeed has to look perfect, perfect would even be a smaller term. While on other hand Arnav after getting ready drove to the banquet hall to help others and check all security arrangement. As per the wish of Khushi, marriage function was kept as a private occasion to cherish only by family members. Security was given strict instructions not to let any media people around the place. Arnav himself has given the statement that the marriage pictures and videos will be provided to media by their private photographers. Only family members and closed friend were welcomed in marriage.. Soon evening dawned by and Arnav was made to sit in beautifully royal decorated mandap and the priest strted chanting the mantras and hymns. While all other family members had their eyes closed and hands folded and praying, our lover boy has his eyes set on the door khushi would be descending. He is counting every second for Khushi's arrival and finally to his luck, priest asked them to bring the bride. Alrady it was hard for Arnav to spend time and now after priest's instructions it had become harder for him to count seconds. His eyes are just stuck on the door while other family members have their smiles on their face seeing the face of the famous business tycoon waiting for his love infront of them.... 

Arnav felt a soft breeze touched his cheek and his heart pounding fast and it didn't took him much time to realize that Khushi is here. Khushi also felt the ticklish sensation in her stomach and it felt like thousands needles piercing her body as soon as she stepped in the hall. She slowly raised her eyes to find her prince charming dressed in a beautiful black and mehroon indo western attite settled down waiting for him in a beautifully decorated mandap. Her eyes popped out seeing the most handsome man of her life sitting and waiting for him and his piercing chocolate eyes and killing smile made her fall for him. Yes, she had fallen in love again with Arnav Singh Raizada, her Arnav. While our Arnav was nonethless. As soon as he felt the soft breeze, immediately he looked to the door to find his doll dressed in a warm red and green Lehnga with golden work and borders green dressed so beautifully and just like a queen with so many gold lavishly hugging her body. Her mang tikka, chura (red marriage bangles) waist belt and all were just adding more to her beauty. They stood at their places, having a vite eye lock.. Their eyes were speaking their feelings. Their eyes were expressing how special they are looking for each other. Arnav passed a cute smile which made khushi blush to crimson red making her more and more beautiful. She lowered her head shying making Arnav fall more for her.Ronit stepped forward towards khushi gently hugged her sideways and kissed her forehead. Both had glassy eyes but at the same time smile on their faces. Ronit helped khushi walk towards Mandap holding her hand. As soon as they reached near the mandap, Arnav steped forward and get down from the mandap to escot his dear wife. Ronit put Khushi's hand in Arnav's hand with a smiling face while eyes saying a lot of unsaid words. Ronit and Arnav shared a brotherly bond. Today Ronit is handling his priceless possesion , his princess to Arnav and indeed he is happy and proud of his choice. While on other hand Arnav was indeed thanking Ronit for trusting him and promises to adore her more with each passing second. They dnt need words to express their gratitude and promises. Their eyes were communicating all unsaid words. Khushi felt extremely happy on seeing the bond shared by them. Arnav and Khushi hand in hand moved towards the mandap and stood before the sacred fire. All the eyes were just looking towards the heavenly couple who is indeed blessed by the eternity. They both are made for each other and none of them can even be sepearated from each other. A smile was plastered on everyone's face seeing the couple. While in mean time Annie bought in big thaal with beautifully placed jai mala ( garlands). Arshi turned towards each other and having a cute eye lock, finally Khushi raised her hands to put garland while our Arnav was pulled back by his cousins and friends. All smile at the little mischief and indeed these little mischiefs and fun are the part of marriage. Finally seeing Khushi's impatient face Arnav decided to end it anf politely bent infront of Khushi and bowed his head a little down. Khushi smiled and hurriedly put garland before anyone can play another mischeif. Everyone clapped and hooded while Arnav put garland around Khushi's neck. Both smiled and sat down with hands folded and Priest started enchanting mantras and hyms..
After some time Akanksha and Ranveer came in and tied the gathbandhan ( sacred marriage knot) and soon priest called Garima and Shashi to perform the sacred ritual of kanya daan ( a ritual of giving ur daughters hand in groom's hand by performing some rituals). Soon both Arnav and khushi stood up to have phere promising each other to be together in good nd bad and cherish and love each other. Pandit ji explained the meaning of each phera to both Arshi while they vow together holding each other's hand and circling around the sacred fire. After settling back on their seats Annie bought a beautifully decorated tray with rose petals with a small antique box of sindoor and a box with mangalsutra in it. Arnav smiled at khushi and soon picked a pinch of sindoor and moved his hand to her mang while payal helped in moving the mang tikka to side. All this while when Arnav was filling her mang an tieing the mangalsutra, Khushi had her eyes closed feeling the pleaure of being Arnav's. From today she would be recognised as Mrs Arnav Singh Raizada. While on other hand Arnav is smiling and has a different charm on his face, charm of togetherness with his love. All the rituals finished with happy notes and priest asked them to take blessings from all elders..Arshi stood up and after taking blessings from everyone they moved towards the hall and all family members settled themselves to have dinner. Everyone was Chit chatting and teasing our love birds making Khushi blush more and more...
The Bidaii time came and all the family members had glassy eyes with tears just on the brink of falling down at very next moment. Arnav looked around to find Khushi's moistion eyes and at once holded her hand tightly consoling her. They both shared a cute eye lock and Arnav consoling khushi. All the members hugged her but Khushi stayed strong and managed herself not to cry.. With all the rituals she was departed from the place and as soon as the car left the main gate, Khushi burst into crying. She has mixed emotions of happiness as well as sadnedd. Happh for starting her new life with Arnav but at the same time sad of leaving her parents who treated her as their princess and her brother who was always there as her friend, guide, and brother. Arnav was for once shocked to see her crying but also understands her state of mind and he in no time hugged her and kiss her forhead..
Arnav: plzzz Khushi, dnt cry... Baby plzzz
Khushi: sobbing) Arnav....
Arnav: baby plzzz.. U r always near to them... U can go and meet them anytime u want.. I would never let u feel their absence.. Maum and dad are always there for u. They are ur maum and dad.. And annie...
Khushi just hugged him tightly, thanking him for supporting her at this crucial age of her life. Khushi departed and looked staright into Arnav.
Arnav: look u spoiled ur makeup too.. Now u have to redo every thing for our first night. 
Khushi looked at her shock and in no time realize that he just wanted to relax her..
Arnav: or maybe not. Indeed its going to be spoiled any way.... And winked her naughtily.
Khushi smiled and gently hit his chest for teasing her and lowered her head in shy or nervousness for the coming night...
After reaching home they find, All family members already waiting for them at entrance. Akanksha was ready with pooja thali while all reletives had smile on their face welcoming her...
Khushi was welcomed warmly by arti followed by all the rituals of throwing the rice kalash. Aa she stepped in the house, she scanned in the house to be beautifully decorated with fairy light, tulips, daisy, lilly's, daffodils and for sure red roses making it look just like a new bride. She had been in this house for a long tym but today, the house seems so different and new to her. She smiled at her feelings of being married now and is daughter in law of someone. 
Akanksha: I think now its the time to perform Arnav's favorite ritual. 
Khushi looked around at all the laughing figures and then towards Arnav who is smirking too. 
Annie: ohh hoo bhaibhi, bhai will pick u up now and take you in the house. 
Khushi smiled and blushed and lowered her head in shy but before she could react on anything she was in Arnav's arm cozy and comfortable, how gentle he is as if handling a soft feather with utmost care and soon she was in the living room. Every one settled down to perform all other playing rituals nd since its already alot late so just finished their teasing early nd soon khushi was taken to her room while all guests departed to their places. 
Love.
