Anamika Page #3

And in the evening Vishaka Devi...

...and her husband are

coming to meet you.

Oh! How funny is that?

After marriage I am

telling you that...

...the only other person in my life

is my elder sister Vishaka.

And her husband Shekhar Rajput.

Shekhar is the police chief.

He is not as capable as he thinks.

They will have dinner here.

So will you take care of it please?

And now that we have got married...

...consider this house as your own.

Love you!

Excuse me, ma'am!

What are you doing?

- I...

Narayan!

You please sit there. No, please

keep this plate here.

You sit there. Come.

Sit.

Excuse me! Narayan!

Narayan! Ma'am was serving

her own breakfast!

Had Malini found out, she

would have fired us.

Ma'am!

- Yes!

Narayan! He will serve you

breakfast every morning!

Okay. - Ma'am, what would you

like to have for breakfast?

Sausages, bacon with

white butter toast.

Fish with honey and olive.

Ma'am, if you want to

begin with salad...

...then we have Italian salad

and Russian salad...

...with all kind of toppings.

If you would like to begin

with Indian breakfast...

...then we have three kinds

of idlis and porridges.

We have 5 varieties of eggs.

Scrambled, milk omelette,

tomato omelette...

...half fried and boiled.

And in drinks, ma'am, soup,

juice, milkshakes...

...coffee, piping hot tea.

- And of course desserts.

What would you like to have

for breakfast, ma'am?

Toast and coffee... please.

I think the order is clear,

Narayan. Serve her.

There you are, ma'am!

This is today's newspaper.

- Thank you.

Did you enjoy the breakfast?

- Yes, it was very nice.

If there was any dearth,

then let me know.

As such a large spread is available

in the marriage party.

All thanks to Mrs. Shishodiya.

Here there was always an ambience

of party. - Is that so?

In India maybe you are the only

person who doesn't know...

...about these parties.

Twice a year.

For such parties even page 3 was...

...not enough to print the

snaps of this party.

Come. Let me show you.

The party was held here.

Celebrities from all over

the world who were...

...Mrs. Shishodiya's personal

guests used to be here.

All the guests would be in mask.

So that we couldn't know who

had come and with whom.

So that there is no controversy.

Singing, dancing, commotion.

Drinks, eateries.

For many nights.

Gajner used to feel alive when

Mrs. Shishodiya was there.

Would you like to sit

in the hall or library?

Anywhere.

After her breakfast

Mrs. Shishodiya...

...used to begin her

day with the library.

Giving instructions to staff,

all the social phone calls...

...appointments...

Where is the library?

Hello!

- Mrs. Shishodiya!

I am sorry. Mrs. Shishodiya

is no more.

Ma'am!

It was the chef's call

from the kitchen!

Oh! - He wanted to ask about

this evening's dinner menu.

I am sure you know that some guests

are coming in the evening.

You tell me. I will inform

in the kitchen.

Whatever is normally

cooked for dinners.

The same menu.

Mrs. Shishodiya was very particular.

Which guest likes what,

what should be...

...the meal combination and...

Do one thing.

If Mrs. Shishodiya had been there...

...then what would she have

chosen for these guests...

...you choose that.

As you please, ma'am!

Nobody is there to receive us.

- Now don't start this!

Welcome, Mr. And Mrs. Rajput.

How are you, Mahajan?

- Very well. Thank you.

It doesn't look like there

has been a second marriage.

So what? Marriage is done for

yourself and not for others.

There you are, Malini.

Hello, Shekhar! Hello, Vishaka.

Hi, how are you? How is Vikram?

You know, he has...

No matter how many times he

marries, he will remain the same.

Guests have come and

he is not at home.

Am I right, Malini?

Well, who can escape from

a policeman's eyes?

He will be here soon. Till then

we will go and sit in the lounge?

Actually it's all right. We will

manage. Thank you so much.

We will manage.

I had told you not to bring me here.

A sister is not a guest in her

brother's house, Shekhar.

Mahajan, where is Vikram's

wife? Introduce her.

Sure. This way please.

Jia!

- Yes!

Why are you standing

here like a thief?

They have come to meet you.

Go and meet them.

Yeah! Please!

Thank you, Mahajan. What

did you say was her name?

Jia! Jia Rao!

I have not heard of

this name before.

Excuse me, sir. I will arrange

for some tea and biscuit.

Please make yourself comfortable.

Thank you.

Now please don't form your

opinion before meeting her.

I have formed an opinion.

Look at her attitude.

It's been so long since we came.

And she has still not

come to meet us.

Good evening, Mr. Rajput!

Hi!

- Hi! - Vishaka!

So you are Jia!

- It's a pleasure meeting you!

Same here!

I hope you people are

comfortable here.

Its okay! Please have a seat!

- Yes!

I am so sorry to keep you waiting.

Good evening, ma'am!

- Good evening!

Good evening, sir! Your tea!

You're not as Vikram had

described you to be.

What had you expected?

Just that you won't

be so young in age.

But Jia, you are really nice the

way you are. You are so sweet.

Are you happy, Jia?

- A lot.

With Vikram too?

Yes. Actually everything

happened so suddenly!

That... I had never thought

that in a moment...

...life could change so drastically.

Just keep one thing in mind.

If you have a cousin, then

don't invite him to Gajner.

Please!

You know what?

I will leave you both alone.

My talks are not as

bad as she thinks.

After marriage I understood

that policemen talk less...

...and they accuse more.

Actually Jia, Shekhar is very

possessive about Anamika.

He considered her as

his younger sister.

The way Malini can't hear

a word against Vikram...

...the same is with Shekhar.

I understand.

But when I came to know that Vikram

has got married again...

...you can't guess how happy I was.

I get a feeling that you both will

be really happy with each other.

Thanks.

Sweetheart, your brother is here!

If he saw me here alone,

then he won't even...

...be able to bring a formal

smile on his face.

I thought we were invited

here for dinner.

That's what are we doing.

Mourning.

Usually people are so silent

in someone's mourning.

Some people here don't

know how to talk.

That's why no topic

is being discussed.

Why are you so conscious

regarding Jia?

How will she learn if we don't talk?

Vikram, why don't you

bring Jia home someday?

Don't wait for an invitation.

Life is not so long to keep

waiting for invitations.

Do you know how to play polo, Jia?

Polo! No, but... - Then how will

you spend time in Gajner?

I will, I mean...

- I understand.

You must be spending a lot of time...

...because you don't

have anything to do.

Gajner's staff has trained

Anamika so well...

...as if she is a automatic machine.

You don't even need

to press the button.

Jia is a very good artist.

Maybe you can start painting again.

That's nice.

Let's see, how good

a painter you are.
