Baraati-Gharaati
Pandit ji ke pariwar ki adhiktar mahilaye aur ladkiyan shaadi ke sthaan se kuch he aage Dharamvir Sangwan ji ke niji farmhouse par pahuchi thi. Siwaye Madhuri aur unko tayar karne wali choti behno aur parlour wali ke. Ye log wahi shaadi ke palace me ek taraf aarakshit 10 kamro wale hisse me thehri thi aur unme se kuch kamre khud ghar ke bado ke liye the jinme Kaushalya ji pramukh thi.
Yaha shaadi sthal par kaam abhi tak joro shoro se chalu tha aur khule hisso ko laal latkan wale shamiyano ke sath aneko jhumar se saja kar ye khaas bhavya roop diya gaya tha jisme bharpoor shaahi ehsaas tha. Gujarte samay ke sath sath catering company ke thekedar apne service staff aur manager ityaadi ke sath ek bade hisse me meeting karte dikhe. Har vyakti apni ek khaas vardi me tha, chamakte joote aur saaf chehro ke sath. Yahi se pata lagta tha ke is bade naam ko he kyun Shankar-Umed ne khaastaur par chuna tha. 7 Samandar naam ki ye catering jitni vikhyaat thi utna he apne kaam aur mejbani ke liye achook. Ek tarah se yaha har waiter aur khaansame ki pariksha he ho rahi thi.
Is beech sabse pehle padhare DIG Nirmal Singh, apne khaas lashkar ke sath aur unki mulakat bhi pehle se he Col Satish Puri se taye thi. Ujli safed kameej aur gehre samandar ke rang si neeli patloon me hamesha ki tarah tej taraar Singh sahab ne samne wale mitra se bhi utni he garamjoshi se hath milate hue apne sath aaye ek lambe fauji se vyakti se parichaya karwaya.
"Ye hai Jaibir Singh, Col sahab. Jaibir jaise maine samjhaya tha tumhe is poore palace ko andar aur bahar se suraksha pradaan karni hai. Lekin khastaur se ye dhyaan jarur rakhna ke vishshit mehmano aur ayojako ke hisse ke bheetar ki taraf tumhara koyi vyakti kadam na rakhne paye. Parinaam tumhari soch se bhi pare ho sakte hai aisi chook par. Aur tumhe Col sahab ko he report karna hai.", Jaibir jaha pehle bade he josh se Col sahab se hath milakar mila tha wahi Nirmal Singh ji ki wo chook wali baat sunn kar chehre par anishchit-ta ke bhaav aa gaye.
"Sir, jaisa aapne bataya hai ki yaha ati-vishisht log aane wale hai toh kahi kahi unke sath bhi mere security persons kareeb honge he. Matlab aap jara vistaar se bataye toh main poori koshish karungi ki baal barabar bhi galti na hone paaye.", Jaibir Singh ki baat ka jawaab khud Col Sahab ne diya.
"Beta baat aisi hai ki jab ati-vishisht log aayenge toh kya wo bina suraksha ke aayenge? Apne Singh sahab ko he le lete hai is baat par. Pariwar ke sath aayenge toh sarkari guard aur driver sath he honge. Lekin wo jagah dekh rahe ho jaha ek kataar se gaadiyan khadi hai?", Col sahab ki baat kuch hadd tak Jaibir ko samajh aa gayi thi aur yaha se 250-300 gaj dur us khule hisse ko dekhne ke baad Jaibir ne bhi gardan haan me hilai.
"Waha tak he harek bahari security wale ki seema hai. Ye ek taraf 1000 se jyada logo ke liye 3 khule pandaal hai aur wo daayi taraf jaha kamre hai waha athithi ruke hai. Inke bheetar koyi guard nahi chahiye lekin ghera barabar wo bhi beech raah me nahi. Haan ye jo badi building hai isme he bhojan aur baithne aadi ka prabandh hai aur andar bas tumhari he maujdgi ho apne kisi khas vyakti ke sath. Chhat par jarur 4-6 log laga dena lekin wo kisi ko toke nahi agar chehal pehal tak ki baat ho toh. Yaha prasadhan kaksh ki taraf bhi koyi surakshakarmi naa jaaye. Parking ki aur sabhi ke liye 4 toilet bane hai unka pryog tumhare log kar sakte hai. Gate ke bahar bhi gaadiyan lagengi aur pichle hisse me bhi chardiwari 5 feet ki hai toh waha nigrani rehni chahiye. Nirmal ji apne Jaibir ke pas aaj ke liye kitne vyakti hai?", Sabhi naksha atche se samjhane ke baad unhone jaruri sawaal Jaibir ki jagah Nirmal ji se he kiya.
"Maine toh 200 aadmi kahe hai Col sahab. Pandit ji ne toh unhe bhi jyada bataya lekin mehmano ki list dekh kar mujhe ye bhi kam lag rahe hai. Lo ji Pandit ji aur unke bhai sahab bhi aa gaye.", Bhai sahab se unka aashaya tha Dharamvir Sangwan ji se jo aaj thik Rameshwar ji ki he tarah holster me rivolver patloon ke ek taraf taange idhar he aa rahe the. Ye log toh abhi se poori tarah tayaar the aur Jaibir bas lagatar Rameshwar ji ko he dekhta raha. Jaise he wo kareeb aa khade hue toh dono hath unke paanv par lagata wo unse aashirwad le kar he seedha hua
"Kaise ho Jibir beta? Nirmal bhai, ye toh apna he bacha hai. Star security wale Delhi se bahar kabse suraksha dene lage Jaibir?", Pandit ji ki baat sunn kar wo sharma raha tha lekin fir muskurate hue usne jo kaha us par baaki sabhi hans diye.
"Suraksha karne walo ko hum kaise suraksha de sakte hai SP sir? Ye toh bilkul nahi maloom tha ke aapke yaha seva deni hai. Ab toh kuch samajhne ki bhi darkaar nahi hai sir. Main jaanta hu ki prabandh kaise rakhna hai. Pariwar se faansle par aur baaki sandighdh jo bhi lage usko ek taraf. Samay kam he hai is hisaab se toh main aapse intjaam karwane ke baad he milta hu Sir. Kya kuch suraksha vishesh logo ke liye bhi rakhni hai sir?", Jaane se pehle yahi aakhiri sawal tha Jaibir ko aur Pandit ji bas muskura rahe the.
"Unse he logo ko surakshit rakhna hai beta tumhe. Unke hath koyi sandigdh laga toh fir tumhari he khaami maani jaayegi. Inder se toh tum mil chuke ho na pehle?", Ye naam sunn kar Jaibir ne sar jhatka aur jaha se aaya tha wapis udhar he mudd chala. Uski tej chaal apne he logo ki taraf thi jinhe wo jald se jald samjha kar mustaidi se kaam pe lagane wala tha.
'Beda garak ho Jaibir tera. Shero ke jhund agar khudke he pehredar galti kar baith toh jaane anjaam kya hoga? DIG sahab naam pehle he bata dete toh kuch sochta bhi lekin ab aukhli me sar de diya hai toh moosal se kya darna.', bechara badbadata hua ja raha tha aur idhar Pandit ji apne in mitro ke sath baatchit sunte hue bhi Jaibir ko jaate dekh rahe the.
"6 bajne wale hai Satish aur jaisa taye hua hai sadhe 7 baje Sanjiv mandir pahuchega aur usi samay waha se Gorav ki ghodi ko le kar baraat is aur chalegi. Aadha pauna ghanta wo log naach-gaa bhi lenge toh fir bhi sava 8 ya sadhe 8 tak barati gate pe honge. Lalita Rajkumar ke sath udhar sabhi betiyon ka hona bhi jaruri hai. Batao ab Mandir se tumhari bhabhi ko is taraf main le kar aau ya tum karoge ye kaam?", Pandit ji ne thodi der pehle he Abhishek se hui baatchit ka jikar karte hue ye sab bataya toh jawaab me Col sahab ne naa me gardan hila di.
"Aap yaha dekhiye bhai sahab aur udhar mandir se Sanjiv ki baraat lekar main khud bhabhi ji ke sath he aaunga. Paise vaarne me aap kar lo kanjusi lekin bache naachne gaane ka ye avsar nahi jaane denge aur bhabhi ji ka waha hona aavashyak bhi hai. Aap charcha kar lo ek baar bachhiyon se ya kisi ek se bhi raaye le loge toh wo bata dengi ki unme se kaun yaha ribbon katwayega aur kaun waha apne bhai ki ghodi ke saamne naachte gaate aayega. Kuch kuch idea toh mujhe Preeti ne de he diya tha dopehar me.", Col sahab ki baat par Sangwan ji bhi sehmat the aur hanste hue unhone bhi kaha.
"Bhai sahab mere ghar me bhi ye sab he chal raha tha. Param ko Marina ne pehle he bol diya hai ke wo sangeet par isliye he nahi jyada shamil hui kyonki wo toh dulhe ki taraf se aayegi yaha. Haan Ruchita bhi uske he sath hai lekin Yashoda aur Annie ne yahi par hona hai mere sath."
"Toh fir ab baat karke time jyada kharaab he kyu karna doctor sahab. Ye Lakshmi abhi bata degi ki kaun kaun yaha rehne wala hai aur kaun waha Sanjiv ke sath. Atchi baat hai aur main toh khud chahta hu ke darbaan ka role nibhaun aaj. Sabhi se gate par he milna behtar rahega.", Hanste hue Pandit ji ne Nirmal SIngh ji ke kandhe par hath rakh liya tha jiska matlab ye bhi tha ke wo unke he sath hai.
"Kapoor Sahab ke irade aise na the Pandit ji. Wo bhi keh rahe the ki aaj naachne ki kasrat wo jarur karenge. Khair wo toh unhe hamesha se he pasand hai lekin main biwi aur beti ko liye aata hu 8 baje tak aur aapke he sameep rahunga. Bache aur biwi pariwar ko jaante hai toh apne aap he ghulmil lenge.", Toh yaha se fainsla ho chuka tha ke pariwar aur khas dost bhi ab 2 bhaago me bant chuke the. Kuch yaha rehne wale the Gorav ke swagat ke liye toh kuch rehne wale the Sanjiv ke sath.
"Phir toh bolta hu apni thanedarni sahiba ko ki jo bhi kare jaldi kare. Jis din ke liye itni bhagdaud ki hai wo aane par he deri ho jaaye toh maja nahi aata.", Rameshwar ji ki baat bhi apni jagah sahi thi kyonki ab 6 baj chuke the aur aane wala har minute maayne rakhta tha.
"Haan bhai sahab aap jara bhabhi ji se salah mashwara kar lijiye. Itne main Sangwan bhai sahab ke sath yaha ka thoda jayza le leta hu. Shankar thodi deri se he aane wala hai kyonki wo bol kar gaya hai ghanta bhar sone ka.", Rameshwar ji khud bhi parichit the apni aulaad se. Yaha naam Shankar ka tha lekin araam uske sath sath Umed, Narinder aur Vinod ityaadi bhi kar rahe the. Dharamvir ji bhi is baat se ittefaaq rakhte the kyonki samay rehte he har karya poora hona jaruri tha jisme kahi bhi koyi kami ki gunjaaish baaki na thi.

"Yar main toh Madhuri didi ke he sath rehne wali hu. Apne toh hath khade hai is garmi aur kal ke dance ki wajah se. Himmat nahi hai ki aadha pauna kilometer paidal ya dance karte hue bheed me aau.", Farmhouse ke bade se kamre me ek taraf bister par Alka baithi hui Aarti aur Marina se kuch baatchit kar rahi thi wahi Ritu ne seene se ghutno tak toliya lapete hue aaina ka rukh kiya. Wo abhi abhi naha kar nikli thi aur geele baalo ko dryer ki garam hawa se sukhati hui Gulabi lehnge choli me tyaar Tara ki baat sunn kar muskurane lagi. Aaisha aur Afsana bhi yahi thi jo inki baatein sunn kar he koyi fainsla leti. Afsana jarur Ritu ko is tarah khada dekh kuch hairaan thi lekin kamre me sirf ladkiyan hone ki wajah se kuch rahat bhi thi.
"Tu toh waise filhal apne dadaji ki family me ghusi rehne wali hai Tara. Aur ye garmi ka bahana toh tu kar he mat jab itni bhaari dress abhi se pehan ke baithi hai. Alka tu bhi bata de ki ribbon katwane ke liye idhar rukegi ya mere sath bhaiya ki ghodi ke saamne enjoy karna hai?", Ritu ne baal sahi karne ke baad hath upar karke apni baalviheen bagalo me sugandhit itra chhidakte hue aaine se dekhte hue he Alka se poochne lagi.
"Agar tu ghodi me shamil hogi toh mujhe idhar rehna hoga. Haan ye Aarti tere sath ja rahi hai aur tu uth ke bathroom me ja motti.", Aarti ko jis tarah Alka ne khadeda tha wo hansti hui apne kulhe hilati kamre ke andar he bane bathroom me ja ghusi. Matlab wo sehmat thi Alka ki baat se.
"I'm also going with you Ritu. Give me 20 minutes and I will be back after getting dressed.", Marina ka bhi ab spasht ho gaya tha ki wo kaha ja rahi hai. Usne tayaar hone ki baat kahi aur darwaja khol kar jaise he nikli waha Rupali ke sath Gurdeep, Kirti aur Jasleen khadi thi. Unko hello bol kar Marina toh chali gayi aur andar ka mahol dekh inhone bhi aate he darwaja wapis laga diya.
"Matlab abhi tak bas Tara he tayar hui hai?", Rupali ne abhi se sabj rang ka suhavana sa lehnga pehan liya tha. Waise he rang ke dupatte ko seene se lekar dono kandho pe kiye wo behad pyaari dikh rahi thi. Jasleen, jo ki hamesha he pashchatya pehnave me dikhti thi aaj usne bhi jamuni rang ka chust lehnga choli, jiska prishthbhaag sirf 2 doriyon se he bandha tha wo pehan kar yaha baithi sabhi ladkiyon ki najar me thi.
"Kapde he toh pehan ne hai Jasleen ji. Aur jo log yaha rukne wale hai wo toh chahe agle ek ghante tayaar na ho toh bhi chalega.", Tara ne apni baat pe he udasi bhara chehra banaya toh Ritu palat kar uske pas he chali aayi.
"Oh meri gussel gudiya. Tu isliye jhijhak rahi hai na ke waha teri daadi aur chacha honge.? Main bolti hu papa ko wo apne aap thik kar denge sab. Tu chalegi mere sath aur yaha pehle he Afsana, Komal didi, Priyanka didi ke sath Richa, Babita didi hai."
"Ji main bhi dulhe bhai ke safar par aapke sath aana chahti hu. Baaji keh rahi thi ki mujhe jana chahiye.", Afsana ne apna naam yaha rukne walo me suna toh kehne se ruk na saki ki wo ghodi-baraat me khud he jana chahti hai. Sabhi hans diye the uski masoomiyat dekh.
"Ye Ritu tere maje le rahi hai Afsana. Preeti ne toh pehle he bata diya tha ke tum, Aaisha, Kirti, Gurdeep iske sath jaogi. Main, Zubeidaa didi aur Komal, Vinni aur Richa yahi Madhuri didi ke sath ribbon kataai me sath honge. Baaki jisne jaha jana hai wo ja sakta hai lekin uske liye thoda jaldi tayaar hona padega. Sath wale room me ab koyi nahi hai kyonki waha hum log tayar hue hai. Jao Afsana tum aur Aaisha wahi tayaar ho jao. Preeti apni behan ke sath wahi aa rahi hai.", Jasleen ne ek saans me he sara vritaant keh sunaya aur iske baad wo dono ladkiyan nikal gayi is kamre se. Ritu bhi jism par lehanga lapetne ke baad wo toliya hata chuki thi. Us bedaag husn par aasmani rangi ki bra bahot thi kuch ladkiyon ko hairan karne ke liye. Bra se mel khata he toh uska lehnga aur choli tha. Bas kahi kahi morpankhi se rang ya sunehari dibbi wale chhap usko kahi jyada aakarshak bana dete. Ritu ne choli ko bhi lagbhag kamar tak he rakhwaya tha jis se naam maatra uska sapaat gora peit jhalak dikhata.
"Mujhe toh lagta tha tum is maamle me thoda kam he hogi. Lekin lagta hai Aarti ke barabar he seena hoga tumhara. Lekin dieting karti ho jo peit bilkul nahi hai?", Gurdeep chalte hue Ritu ke najdeek he khadi ho gayi. Ritu ne najro se he sukriya kaha tha aur choli ke dhaage baandhne ka nyota diya toh Gurdeep ne badi ehtiyaat se Ritu ke jism ko sparsh karte hue wo chaaron doriyana aapas me bandh di. Alka baithi baithi muskura rahi thi aur yahi haal Tara ka tha. Alka se najar milte he ab Ritu sharmane lagi thi.
"Oye main koyi ladka thodi na hu jo tum sharma rahi ho. Waise tum naram nahi ho Ritu, haan skin jarur smooth hai lekin body tight hai tumhari.", Gurdeep ne itni he der me Ritu ke kandho, peeth aur baahon ka jayja le liya tha.
"Tu sath so ke dekh jara Deepi, ye tujhe ladko wala maja bhi kara degi. Taste toh nahi badal liya tumne isko dekh kar.?", Bathroom se Aarti bahar aayi toh uski baat sunn kar Gurdeep jhijhakte hue thodi dur ho gayi. Baaki sabhi muskura rahe the aur ab Alka he aage badhkar Ritu ko tayar karne lagi.
"Yar tum toh bolti aur majaak karti hui he atchi lagti ho. Dekha nahi ye Aarti bhi hamare sath reh kar kaise bolne lagi hai? Waise Ritu aur Aarti bahot hadd tak same he thi lekin kuch arse se Ritu mere sath regular exercise aur weight training karne lagi hai. Haan Arti bhi karti hai lekin weight ki jagah cardio ya stretching isko jyada pasand hai. Lekin tum aise he bahot atchi dikhti ho kyonki tumhe shayad walk karne ka shauk hai aur health pehle he bahot atchi hai tumhari.", Alka ne sab samjhate hue ye bahi jata diya ki wo bhi Gurdeep ke maasal aur aakarshak sharir se prabhavit hai. Gurdeep toh thi bhi sadhe 5 feet ki poori gadraai ghodi.
"Haan wo ghar ke samne he park hai toh thoda bahot waha ghoom leti hu baaki khaane peene ka shauk bahot hai mujhe toh market me chalna phirna bhi ho jata hai. Tum logo ka bhi sahi hai jo khud ko fit rakhti ho. Waise main keh rahi thi ki sadak pe naachne ke baad kya idhar bhi DJ ka program rakha hai kya?", Gurdeep hamesha aise he saaf bolti thi jo uska dil karta tha. Aur uski ye DJ wali baat sunn kar Ritu ne he jawab diya. Alka uski aankhon me kaajal laga rahi thi ab.
"Program toh sabhi hai jitna mujhe lagta hai kyonki jagah itni badi arrange ki hai toh ye sab bhi hoga. Lekin kuch keh nahi sakte dada ji ka. Jaane kahi shehnaai ka he program na rakh diya ho unhone.", Ab Jasleen aur Kirti hansne lagi thi jo shayad vivah sthal dekh ke aa chuki thi.
"Deepi, intjaam toh hai lekin mujhe lagta hai waha ladke he jyada josh dikhane wale hai. Agar kahi bhi koyi ladkiyon ka group dikha toh jarur tum kamar hila lena.", Ye baatein karne me lagi thi apne apne anumaan ke sath ki ek bar fir se darwaje par dastak hui. Dastak ka saaf matlab tha ke bahar inke sath ka koyi na tha. Rupali ne samay le kar he darwaja khola jis se Aarti bathroom me wapis ja sake. Bahar Himanshu khada tha poori tayaari ke sath gale me camera latkaye.
"Didi, nana ji aaye hai niche aur wo Alka didi ko bula rahe hai.", Iska saaf matlab tha ki Rameshwar ji idhar isliye he aaye the ki wo Sanjiv ka karyakram jaan sake aur jo bhi log uske sath jaane wale hai unke alag walo ko palace me bhejne ka intjaam bana sake. Alka ne turant dupatta gale me liya aur wo kajal ki kalam Jasleen ko dete hue Himanshu ke sath he bahar nikal chali. Yaha ab tayaari thoda tej ho chali thi sajne sanwarne ki. Lekin is vivaah me sabkuch itna he sakratmak nahi tha.

"Dekho Naveen, abhi tak tumne jaisa kaha humne apni aukaat se badhkar bhi wo sab kiya tumhare liye. Lekin tum khud he dekh sakte ho ki hamara ye pariwar koyi aam ghar nahi hai aur na he idhar jo log hai wo hamari tarah majboor. Ab tak toh hum teeno he tumhari wajah se tau ji ki najro me aa chuke honge wahi meri badi bhatiji ne bhi wo tamasha dekha jo us kamre me ho raha tha. Maaf karna ab main aur haan me haan nahi mila sakta. Kathputli ki maut se behtar hoga ki mujhe mere pita ya bhai he maar de.", Shaadi wali jagah se aage kuch he duri par ye ek chai ka khokha tha jo filhal band tha shaam hone ki wajah se. Lekin fatte wale bench waise he rakhe the jo janjiro se bandh kar surakshit kiye gaye the. Ek taraf Vinod ke sath PP Sharma aur Raman baithe the aur unke saamne wale bench par Naveen apne sath 2 logo ko liye. Inke alawa bhi Naveen ke peeche 2 vyakti aur khade the jinke chehre se saaf he lagta tha ki ya toh wo bahut pahuche hue adhikari hai ya fir koyi paheli.
"Hahaha.. Vinod tumhe kisne kaha ki main tumhe maar dunga agar tum mera sath nahi doge? Maine jitna chaha tha tumne us se kahi jyada he kiya hai mere liye dost. Haan meri wajah se tum log najro me aaye iske liye pachtawa hai mujhe par ye jaruri tha. Tumhe bhi toh waise badla lena he tha is namuraad Shankar aur iske haiwaan dosto se? Khair ab tumhare liye wo kaam main kar raha hu toh maamla barabar ho gaya hamare beech. Kyon Raman, maine galat kaha kya?", Jis tarah Naveen ne Raman ko bulaya tha wo sharif avtar insaan aisi kutilta se muskuraya ki ek pal ko khud PP Sharma bhi kaanp gaya. Vinod ne hairat na dikhai ya shayad wo jajb kar gaya lekin iske baare me Arjun ne usko 2 din pehle he toh chetaya tha.
"Dekho Vinod bura matt maan-na lekin main bas itne saal tak isliye he khamosh tha ki waqt aane par is pariwar ko wo aghaat pahucha saku jiske ye haqdar hai. Tabaah karke inhe khoon ke aansu rulwana he ekmatra wajah thi tumhari us badsurat si behan se shaadi karne ki. Main Rajyavardhan Singh ka wo hukum ka ikka hu jo 52 patto me shamil he na tha. Haan meri jagah tum jarur us gaddi me the ek Joker ki tarah. Hahaha.. Gussa aa raha hai na tumhe ab? Kya karoge? Apni maa se lipat kar royega ya fir behan ko mera sach batayega? Oh tu aisa kuch bhi nahi kar sakta kyonki Roshni filhal mere kabje me hai teri pyari bhanji Anjali ke sath. Ek galti aur udhar teri behan aur bhanji dono parlok pahuch jayengi.", Raman ki baatein sunn kar ab Vinod bhauchakka sa baitha tha jaise uske upar baraf ki sillian ulat di gayi hai. Naveen aur uske aadmi dhithaai se muskurate hue ye drishya dekh rahe the.
"Isne tumhe hamesha he apna bhagidar samjha hai Raman aur maine bhi tumhara he paksh liya har samay. Kya kami thi hamare bhaichare me jo aaj tum humare he sath itna ghinona vishwasghaat kar rahe ho? Aur agar koyi jung ya ranjish bhi ho toh usme kabhi ghar ki ijjatt ya beti nahi shamil karte.", PP Sharma is samay kahi se bhi wo kamjor sa vyapari nahi lag raha tha jo aksar dikhta tha. Uska sawaal karna he jaise bhari padd gaya. 'Chattaak' ki ek tej goonj ke sath he Naveen ke bhari hath ke nishan uske gaal pe chinhit the.
"Maalik se tu tadaak karne ki himmat nahi hai tumhari. Hath bandhe the inke kyonki wo samay waisa tha lekin tumhare he us prem-pyaar ki wajah se Raman bhai sahab ne ye pehle he keh diya tha ke tum dono ko zinda chhod diya jaaye. Fir dobara galti na ho jubaan ladane ki. Bhai sahab, ab batao ki seedhe humla karna hai ya lomdi ki tarah?", Naveen ki baat par Raman Sharma thoda gambhir ho gaya tha. Apne he rumaal se usne PP Sharma ke honth ke kinare nikla khoon saaf kiya aur thande swar me bolne laga.
"Huhhh.. seedha humla toh aatmhatya hai Naveen. Lomdi he bano aur main andar he rahunga pariwar ke beech. Waise toh mera sala aur sahdhu bhai koyi galti nahi karenge lekin inke sath reh kar apni chhavi toh saaf rakh he sakta hu. Vakil Singh, Shankar ko ekant me bula kar bas wo 2 tasvire dikha dena jaha uski kartoot saaf najar aati hai. Baaki saudebaji ke liye usko yahi bulana hai aur fir agar mujhe Shankar najar aaya toh tum sab log najar nahi aaoge.", Naveen ki bagal me baitha wo rajpootana kalme aur ghumavdar mooch se saja insaan he Vakil Singh tha.
"Main toh kehta hu bhai sahab ki jhatka Rajesh se dete hai. Saboot chhod kar jayenge uski lash ke pas toh Shankar apne aap he hamari aur dauda aayega. Aur jab udhar aayega toh apni toli ke sath jo hamare liya bada shikar he honge. Kya kehte ho Naveen bhai ji?", Vakeel ne apna matt rakha toh Naveen ne Raman Sharma ki taraf dekhte hue apni gardan ahista ahista aise hilaai jaise wo Raman se haan kehalwana chahta ho.
"Sahi kehte ho tum Vakil isliye tumhara naam tum par janchta hai. Waise bhi is Rajesh ne bahot baar nuksaan kiya hai aur bharpaai toh sabhi karenge. Shuruaat iske sath he karte hai fir. Dhyaan rakhna andar koyi bhi najar na aaye tum me se. Unke beech main bhi khada ho kar asliyat bata na sakunga. Saale baat baad me karte hai pehle jism ko lash bana dete hai.", Raman Sharma ne khade ho kar apni aasteen ke dono button band karke fir se apna wahi shareef huliya banaya aur chamakti aankhon se Vinod aur PP Sharam ko dekhte hue kaha.
"Bhai sahab, ab toh hume wapis chalna chahiye. Waha bhi rasme aur kaam dekhne hai. Koshish kijiyega ki jubaan par tala jada rahe nahi toh .. aap dono kuch jyada he samajhdar jo hai.", Raman chalta hua ek taraf aad me khadi car ki pichli seat par ja baitha toh ye dono jija-saale bhi paltu kutte ki tarah uske sath ho liye. Car Vinod he chala raha tha aur bagal me baitha PP Sharma toh khamoshi ki moorat me he tabdil tha.
'Naveen bhai ji, toh yaha jaal waise he bichana hai ya thoda filmy style.?", Vakil ki baat par Naveen bas us car ko jaate dekh muskuraya.
"Hum 5 log hai toh sab kaayde se he karna padega. Rajesh ko yahi bolna hai ki uski file hai tumhare pas aur agar wo chahta hai ki baat rafa-dafa ho jaye toh is jagah mile 50 lakh ke sath, nagad ya sona kuch bhi chalega. Lekin pehle mulakaat aur paise kaha pahchane hai wo meeting ke baad bata diya jayega. Chinta matt karna, humari suraksha tum par bharpoor rahegi. Chalo ab bahar he maujood rehna tum jis se kaam ko anjaam diya ja sake. Andar toh kada pehra hai aur Raman bhai ne pehle he bata diya hai ki wo waha humse ittefaaq nahi rakhne wale, fansne ki surat me.", Ab tak toh Vinod ki car bhi najro se aujhal ho chuki thi aur ye log apni jeep me baithne se pehle kamar me bandhi rivolver jaanchne ke baad he seat par lapke. Itna toh taye tha ki Raman ne jaal atcha buna tha apni he biwi aur beti ko qaid me rakh kar. Aur Rajesh idhar akela aane par agle din ka suraj nahi dekhne wala tha.

Kisi bade mehal ke bagiche se bhaag ko bharpoor roshni se saja kar vishist roop diya ja chuka tha. Bahar gate par dono he taraf bade bade board jagmag the jaha ek par likha tha 'Radhika Dutt weds Sanjiv Sharma' aur dusre par 'Madhuri Sharma weds Gorav Sharma'. Bahut se kareebi mehmaan padhar chuke the aur anginat waiter hatho me tray liye unhe thanda garam pesh karte hue poori mustaidi se apne kaam me lage the. Laal-safed reshmi latkano aur roshni se jagmag behtareen jhoomaro ke saaye tale vibhinn tarah ke khaane peene ke stall saj kar bata rahe the ki kisi bhi tarah ki koyi kami nahi rakhi gayi. Is hari ghaas ke saje hue bhaag se aage chalkar unche stage par 2-2 ke jodo me swarnim aabha bikherte wo sinhansar numa sofe dulha dulhan ke liye utni he bakhubi sajaye the. Jagah jagah tent ke pipe phulo ki belo se saje taja mehak bikher kar vatavaran ko aur manmohak bana dete. Karine se lage gulabjal mishrit paani ke cooler bhi garmi ka naam-matra ehsaas na hone de rahe the.
"Taai ji, baraat aa rahi hai. Chalo aap sabhi log gate par jaldi se pahucho.", Aarti ne jab joshili awaaj me Madhuri didi ki taraf wale kamro ke galiyare se chill kar ye kaha toh Lalita ji ke sath sath Rekha, Renuka, Krishna, Madhu, Rajeshwari aadi ke sath baaki ladkiyan bhi apne apne paridhaan thik karti hui uth khadi hui. Tilak ki thaali, paani, mithaai aadi pehle se he tayaar thi bin jale diye ke sath. Ye sabhi apni vyavaharik chaal aur maryadit pehnave ke sath apni betiyon aur bacho ke sath pandal ki aur badh chali.
Ab tak pandal ki shuruaat me he gulabi-laal riboon bandh diya gaya tha jaha is taraf Priyanka, Romela, Aayesha aur Alka ke sath sath dhero ladkiyan aur mahilayen khadi thi. Annie yahi thi lekin unki bitiya apne pita ke sath Sanjiv ki taraf mandir ja chuki thi. Dur se he gaadiwan ki mike pe gaane ki awaaj aur jhoomte gaate log is taraf aate najar aaye. Safed ghodi par sehre aur reshmi suit me dulha Gorav in sabke beech tha. Punjabi swaro par uske dost, sambandhi, bhabhiya aur ladke ladkiyan bharpoor josh se nachte hue kuch samay tak bas dehleej se us taraf he khade rahe.
Purnima ji khud Lalita ji ko sath liye ribbon se aage badh kar baraat ke saamne aa khadi hui. Umed ji ko liye Rameshwar ji ki bujurg mandali bhi inke kareeb he thi lekin kuch fansla rakh kar. Arjun bhi hall ka jayja lene ke baad is aur aane laga toh ek pal ke liye dono he taraf ke logo ki najro ka kendra ho gaya. Chust kameej aur wo khadi istree wali khaas patloon pehne jab wo chal raha tha toh barbas he Kaamdev ka sampoorn avtaar jaan pada. Ye wahi poshak thi jo Preeti ne he uske liye pasand ki thi. Bina baah ka coat Arjun ne filhal apni ek baah par latka rakha tha aur muskurata hua wo apni taai aur chachi-daadi ke sath Abhishek ji aur baaki baraat ke samne aa khada hua. Dono taraf se hath jodd kar abhivadan hua toh Shilpa ji apalak Arjun ko he niharti rahi. Aisa he haal unki kuch aur saheliyon ke sath jawaan yuvtiyon ka bhi tha.
"Jija ji, tilak toh karwa loge lekin is naake par bhgtaan kiye bina aap aage nahi badh sakte.", Alka ne us shorgul me bhi itni buland awaaj se aisa kaha tha ki sabhi ka dhyaan kheench liya. Pandit ji ke sath Aacharya ji aur baaki bujurg bhi bachi ki is baat par muskura rahe the. Baraat me aaye Gorav ke dosto ne jawaab bhi shalinta se he diya, masti bhara thoda.
"Aise naake 10-12 laga lijiye sej tak. Har jagah bhugtan karke he aage badhenge agar swagat aise hoga toh.", Aur jabardast shor ne us ladke ki baat ka samrthan kiya jisme kya ladke kya auraten, sabhi shamil the. Yaha Arjun ne aage badh kar apne ghutne kuch modd kar dono hath Gorav ke paanv talke karte hue niche utarne ki rasma adaa ki toh Gorav ne bhi apne se 4 inch unche is saale ko gale laga kar dhanyawaad kiya. Unko sath liye Arjun apni taai ki taraf aaya toh agal bagal Abhishek ji aur Shilpa ji ke sath sath kuch bujurg aur sangi- baraati bhi khade hue.
"Bhagwaan narayan hamesha aap par apni chaya banaye rakhe. Pariwar me aapka swagat hai Gorav beta.", Ye lafz khud Purnima ji ke the aur Lalita ji ne tilak karne ke sath chaaval barsane ke baad mooh mitha karwaya toh aasman jaise kritrim rooi ki fuharo se bhar utha. Gorav-Abhishek ke dosto ne wo khaas spray udaa kar apni khushi aise darshaai thi ki us se kisi ke vastra ya makeup na prabhavit ho. Bahut se logo ne toh aasman bhi aatishbaji se rangeen kar diya tha. Andar mehmaan badhte jaa rahe the aur idhar rasam ki bheed me bhi ijafa hota gaya.
"Daadi maa, aap mujhe 'aap' nahi Gorav he keh kar bulaye. Aur maa ji, bete ka sthaan maa ke charno me hota hai sar pe nahi.", Lalita ji hath jodd he rahi thi ki apne sehre ki parwah kiye bina Gorav ne unke aur Purnima ji ke charan chhu liye. Is baat par bhi baaki sabhi ne khoob taaliyan peeti. Ribbon ke dusri taraf khadi un apsaron ki taraf bhi dhero jawan yuvak najre kiye the lekin unhe pehle se he bhaan tha ki yaha koyi autchi harkat manjoor nahi. Rameshwar ji ke sammukh aane par bhi Abhishek aur Gorav ne aisa he kiya tha aur Arjun-Lalita ji ke sath wo log aage chal kar Alka ke saamne aaye toh uski bagal me khadi Komal, Zubeidaa, Richa, Aarti, Rupali ke sath sath ghar-pariwar ki auraton ko dekh thodi lachari dikhane lage.
"Yaha par filhal jitni najar aa rahi hai utni he gayab hai jija ji. Toh 21 hajaar se kam neg toh hum lene nahi wali. Baaki aapki marji hai ki itne de sakte ho ya bagal se nikal kar jana hai?", Aarti jitni haseen thi uski awaaj bhi utni dil ko choo lene wali. Gorav ne toh apne swabhaav ke kaaran najre tak na milaai thi lekin Abhishek ji ab apni biwi aur Pandit ji ki taraf dekhne lage jo hath utha kar dusir aur khisak liye.
"Dekho Aarti beta, neg toh kuch bhi ho sakta hai. Aur wo saamne wale ki marji anusaar hona chahiye na ki tum jitna bolo utna.", Ye thi Krishna ji lekin apni maa ki baat par Aarti ne mooh bana kar mana kar diya.
"21 matlab 20 bhi nahi. Aur humne aisa toh nahi kaha ke jija ji ja nahi sakte. Haan fir wo rasta badal kar he jaayenge."
"Gorav yaar tu kahe toh main 5000 de deta hu. Itni toh value kar he sakte hai jab maangne wala aisa nakchadha ho.", Ek joshila sa yuvak ye bola toh uske dosto ne bhi aise he swar diye.
"Matlab yaha bhi contribution karke aap log entry karoge? Jija ji is party ke host hai toh aaj inhe he dene chahiye.", Arjun ne apni behno ka paksh liya toh Gorav ne najre neeche kiye he muskurate hue ek hath apni bhabhi ki taraf badha diya. Shilpa ji ne bhi hanste hue wo laal kapde ki potli apne devar ko thama di.
"Paise ka kya hai ek din kharch ho he jaate hai. Aap log pariwar hai ab aur pariwar bemol hota hai. Phir bhi ye tuchh se bhent ghar ki dehleej me pehla kadam rakhne ke evaj me. Jyada nahi hai sirf 21 ginniyan hai aap sabhi ke liye bhaiya aur bhabhi ki taraf se.", Gorav ke is tarah najre jhuka kar mridul lehje me dil se kehne par Alka ne he wo thaili pakad kar kainchi thama di.
"Bas aap jija ji he rehna hamare.. Hahahaha..", Idhar jaise he Gorav ne kaanpti ungliyo se wo bareek si kapde ki katran kaati, Madhu-Shalini-Ruchita ke sath sath anginat logo ne phulo ki baarish he kar di. Aarti ke hansod jawab par thahako ke sath he Gorav aur baraat ne bheetar kadam rakha. Turant he dono taraf kataar-badh khade waiter harkat me aate sabhi mehmano ki sewa me jutt gaye. Yaha se aage ka safar sabhi ne bagair Arjun ke he taye kiya, jo muskurata hua apne pita ki car liye udhar chal pada tha jaha uske bhai ki baraat shuru hone wali thi. Gorav ki baraat wale toh mantramugdh se bas is jalwa-sareen prabandh aur vivaah sthal ko he nihar rahe the. Jagah jagah ab chote jhund banaye wo log araam karne ke sath khaate peete hue mel jol badhane lage the aur Sushila ji Munni aur apni saas ke sath sath Babita ke pariwar ko shamil kiye pandaal me ek taraf ja rahi thi.
"Guddi jiji kaha reh gayi?", Munni jaha is raunak ko dekh hairaan thi wahi usko irshya bhi ho rahi thi itne vyapak ster par vivaah ke hone par. Dekh kar he lagta tha ke paisa paani ki tarah bahaya gaya hoga. Lekin is sabke beech bhi usne ye sawaal kiya jiske liye Sushila pehle se he tayar thi.
"Wo Sudarshan ko livane gayi hai hospital Shankar ke ek doctor dost ke sath. Wo laut Aa jayegi kuch he samay me Munni. Tum bhi jara thoda Babita ke sambandhiyon se meljol rakho. Kal ko Richa ki shaadi honi hai toh tumhe samajik bhi hona hai.", Sushila ne he toh Arjun aur Guddi ko wo ekant diya tha jis wajah se sabse dur Arjun ab Malti ko pichli seat par baithaye Sanjiv bhaiya ki ghodi ki aad me batchit karne nikal chuka tha.
.
.
"Beta, tum pehle ye batao ke haweli ke baare me kitna jaante ho?", Sanyog se Arjun mandir wale raste ki aur na ja kar car ko wahi le aaya tha jaha ghanta dedh pehle Naveen-Raman aadi ki mantrana hui thi. Is nirjan se sthaan par wo dono waise he baithe the jis se saamne se kisi ke aane par sirf Arjun he dikhaai padta. Malti kaaki ke sawaal par Arjun ne jyada lamba na khinchte hue Madhulata, Sushila ke pehle wale itihaas aur Sombir Singh ke sath sath unke charo beto wali jaankari pragat kar di.
"Beta tum jaante toh jarurat se jyada ho lekin abhi bhi tumhe wo sab nahi maloom jiski jaankari hone par mere sath sath tumhara bhi jiwan sankat me jaayega. Khair mujhe meri utni parwah bhi nahi aur mere jaisi aurat ko raste se hata kar unhe kuch hansil bhi nahi hone wala. Ab tum batao Arjun ki kya tum apni khojbin aage badhaoge ya fir tumhe rukna hai?"
"Jaanta hu ki waha bahot kuch aisa hai jo mujhe nishabd kar dega chachi ji. Lekin aadhe raste rehne wala insaan fir kabhi jiwan ka koyi safar nahi kar sakta. Kuch toh aisa hai jo mujhse chhoota raha hai ya bach gaya. Jaisa maine aapko bataya hai ki Babita didi aur Richa didi bhi wahi bata saki jo unko pata tha ya dekha. Chandro daadi ji mujhe hamesha he do-tarfa vyaktitva wali lagti hai aur kyun sab jaan kar bhi wo Madhulata kaaki ko bachati aa rahi hai.? Kyun meri daadi ke saamne unke swar niche rehte hai lekin akele me wo dada ji se alag tarike se pesh aati hai? Aur sabse jaruri baat hai ki jab aapke pati ko pehle se he unka anjaam pata tha toh wo us raat baaki bhaiyon ke sath gaye he kyun? Aapko bhi pata hoga ki Rajkumar tauji ne unhe sachet kiya tha papa aur chacha ke baare me?", Arjun ke is kathan par Malti ko bada garv hua tha ki wo aisi baatein bhi jaanta tha jo siwaye unke kisi ko pata na thi.
"Wo aise he the beta, aakhir tak pariwar ke sath rehne wale. Aur unke sharir ko tehas nehas na karne ke peeche Narinder ki bhi wahi mansha thi. Shankar junoon me unka bhi wahi haal karta lekin khud Narinder ne Punjab jaane se pehle mujhse apradhbodh me maafi maangi thi aur apne paksh ko rakha tha. Baat viprit hoti toh Fateh jeth ji toh itni ijjatt bhi na dete unhe. Haan ab maa ji ki baat aayi hai toh tumhe shayad samjhauta bilkul bhi nahi pata. Chandarbhan Singh, jisko Umed bhai sahab ne parlok bheja wo kehne ko toh Guddi ke mama ka ladka tha lekin wo asliyat me Sasur ji ka najayj beta tha. Haan Karam Singh ek atcha insaan tha lekin uska he judwa, shakal se alag. Wo Bindiya ka judwa darshaya gaya tha jiska khud Bindiya ko kabhi pata na chala. Karam ko pata chala tab bhi wo kabhi kisi ki taraf na hua. Jaante ho unki maa kaun thi?", Ye toh Arjun ke bhi sar ke upar se he gaya. Usne ye toh jarur pata laga liya tha ke Chandarbhan aur Karam judwa the lekin unki maa, matlab Laajwanti ki bhabhi ko wo dhoond nahi paya tha. Aur Sombir Singh unka baap hoga ye toh gale se niche he nahi utar raha tha.
"Kaun thi unki maa chachi? Aur Sombir Singh matlab Chandro dadi ji ke pati un dono ke pita the?"
"Haan beta aur ye baat mere pati, mere jeth ke sath sath Chandar aur Munni ko bhi pata thi maa ji ke sath. Un dono ki maa.. un dono ki maa thi nahi abhi bhi zinda hai. Reshma.. Sarpanch Zile Singh ki tatkathit vidhwa aur Laajwanti ki behan. Isliye he toh haweli ke sath wali kothi mili thi unhe aur sarpanch ke sath byaah bhi khud sasur ji ne karwaya jo byaah se pehle he bache jann chuki thi. Ek Bindiya ka bhai bana toh dusra sasur ji ki ek aur sangini ki chhatrachaya me. Haweli ke maalik kabhi ek roop nahi rakhte beta. Aur maa ji ka sach bhi ajeeb hai jiski wajah ek aurat ho kar toh main tumhe nahi bata sakti lekin ye jaan lo ki sirf apne sage bhai se badh kar rahe Raghuvir ji ki wajah se Pandit ji unke samne kuch dabe hue hai.", Arjun ne ghadi me samay dekha toh abhi bhi uske paas bahot waqt tha.
"Aur ye Reshma ji kaha gayab hai Laajwanti ji ke sath? Rajasthan?"
"Wahi toh samudaye hai unka ya kaho kabila. Panch Ishwar ji nek insaan the aur unhe maarne wala Chandarbhan aur khud Laajwanti. Khair sabse jaruri baat batana toh reh gayi."
"Haan main sunn raha hu chachi ji.", Arjun ne AC ki gati dhimi karte hue band shisho par aayi dhund halki karne ka prayaas kiya.
"Neelima ko toh khoj loge lekin kya wo tumhe Ajju devar ji ke katal karne wale ka naam asaani se bata degi?", Ye mamla aisa tha jisme Arjun ke sath dhero logo ne chhanbin ki thi lekin Arjun he tha jisko ek aas najar aayi thi Neelima ka jaankar wo bhi Shalini bua se. Guddi kaaki is maamle me kya jaanti hogi ye usko andaja bhi na tha.
"Aap unke asli kaatil ko jaanti hai chachi ji?"
"Maine aisa toh nahi kaha beta. Lekin ek insaan hai jo atche se jaanta hai ki kisne Ajju ke hath bandh diye the aur kisne uske dil me wo khanjar pevast kiya.. Ajju kisko kaaki keh kar bula sakta tha?", Guddi ne paheliyan bujhate hue Arjun ke he dimaag ki parakh leni chahi.
"Chandro dadi ji ko toh wo taai ji he kehte. Meri daadi ji, Neelima ji ki maa, Lajwanti ji aur ye Reshma ji.. Haan Damyanti ji bhi ho sakti hai..", Guddi kaaki ne naa me gardan hilate hue inkaar kiya toh Arjun ko aur log dhyaan he nahi aaye.
"Ajju Kaushalya ji ko hamesha se he maa bulata tha jaise Purnima ji ko. Aur ho sakta hai ki waha Neelima ki maa bhi maujood ho kyonki Damyanti kaaki ko wahi se agua karane ke peeche unka he hath tha, jitna mujhe sunn ne me aaya. Lekin ek shaksh hai jiski shakal main itne baras baad bhi nahi bhooli sirf ek baar dekhne bhar se. Wo us dauraan he ek raat haweli aaya tha lekin ghoongat aur haliya bewa hone ki wajah se maine uska saamna nahi kiya. Baithak ke kamre ke peeche he us samay mera kamra hota tha aur wo insaan us raat kuch nashe me akela he badbada raha tha ke usne thik nahi kiya. Ajju ke sath ye galat hua. Bhagwan bhi ab maaf nahi kar sakta.. Wo yahi sab badbada raha tha aur fir wo raat me he nashe ki haalat me haweli se nikal gaya. Maine saaf dekha tha wo chehra kyonki aangan me laalten ke thik saamne khade ho kar usne apna chehra pani se dhoya aur saaf kiya. Jab uske kaafi arse baad maine maa ji se us vyakti ka jikar kiya tha toh unhone sirf itna he kaha tha ke wo mere sasur ji ka ek dost tha jo Punjab me dur jagah rehne ki wajah se unke shauk par aaya tha. Sath he unhone ye bhi poocha tha ke maine kahi usko dekha toh nahi tha. Jis par maine saaf mana karke itna he kaha tha ke wo raat me badbada rahe the aur fir andhere me he chale gaye.", Ab Arjun ke dimaag ki taare jhanjhana uthi thi. Aisa kaun ho sakta hai aur wo kaaki toh ab uljhan he ban chuki thi jab wo un naamo me se thi he nahi jinke baare me Arjun jaanta tha.
"Aapne isliye he kaha tha ke shaadi me wo insaan najar aayega toh aap mujhe ishara karengi? Lekin 25 saal baad kya pehchan bhi sakti hai aap usko?"
"Ummeed he hai kyonki kal jab hum tumhare ghar aaye the toh maine waha bhi wo khaas cheej daang dekhi thi jiske mutth par sunehari taar se aankh jaisa kuch bana tha. Wo koyi mehmaan bhi ho sakta hai aur main galat bhi ho sakti hu lekin ab tum jahan itne raaj khol chuke ho toh kaise bhi karke us vyakti ka pata karo jo haweli se vasta rakhta ho lekin ho Punjab se. Maine haweli me reh kar bhi wo insaan dubara nahi dekha aur agar wo sasur ji se milne bhi aata hoga toh unke thikane alag honge.", Ab iske baad bhi unki charcha kuch 10 minute tak aur chalti rahi fir khud Malti kaaki ne he Arjun ko samay ka dhyaan karwaya toh Arjun paseena saaf karta turant car le kar us taraf badha jaha usne Kaaki ko chhodna tha. Mandir se Sanjiv bhaiya ki baraat nikal chuki thi aur unse kuch dur pehle he Arjun ne ambulance dekh apni car uske saamne rok kar chabi Bhuppi uncle ko pakdate hue dhanyawad kaha aur chinta saaf karta hua ghodi ki aur badh gaya. Ambulance ke aage ab wahi car Dr Bhupinder Singh chalate hue Malti kaaki ko fir se shaadi me le chale the. Ambulance ke pichle hisse me Sudarshan tha apni wheelchair ke sath.
Aur upar wale se dua hai ki aap kushal Mangal rahe jaldi wapas aaye
