The whole is decorated beautifully with flowers and lights ,there is lot of hustle bustle going on .Two mandap are  placed in the middle of the hall ( a place where indian  marriage take place ). Both Dhruv and Ahaan is sitting on the mandap waiting for their bride ,Dhruv has smile on his face while Ahaan is sitting with expression less face .Then he heard the anklet voice ,he move his head up and saw Alya and Anaya are coming wearing bridal dress ,Alya has glow and spark on her face while Anaya head is down .Ahaan look at Alya ,who is happy .He always dream to see in bridal clothes ,he has some time imagine ,how will she look in bridal wear but he never expected that he will see her in bridal wear but she is not his bride but for some one else but for his brother .His trance broke when Anaya come and stand beside him while Alya happily walk and stand beside Dhruv ,Ahaan look at them ,who are happily looking in each other eyes .Ahaan closed his eyes painfully seeing their closeness .Then the priest ask them to sit on their respective place and they obliged .

The priest asked them to forward their hand, Dhruv and Alya happily do the ritual where as Ahaan forward his hand after priest repeat two or three times ,then Anaya slowly  forward her  and keeps her hand on him. Ahaan who is angry on her to get ready to marry him ,tightly clutched her hand ,she hiss in pain and try to losen the hold but no use .She look around to his and her family ,not wanted to create a scene ,she mask her pain and bring smile on her face . The priest starts chanting mantras and put flowers on their hand. After some time he asks them to stand up for pheras (couple takes seven-round around fire). They both look at each other and slowly get up .The priest starts chanting mantras. He tell the promise on every pheras or round :

They nod and sit in their place. priest forward vermillion and asked them   to fill her hairline, he nod and take the pinch of vermillion  ,Dhruv fill Alya hairline with smile ,while Ahaan took the vermillion ,he  put the vermillion without any interest ,few vermillion fell on her nose ,she remember how her grand mother used to say whenever they attended any marriage in the village that when the vermillion fell on bridal nose ,that mean the girl husband love her so much .Tears start forming In her eyes ,Ahaan who took the nuptial chain to tie around her neck ,saw her tears .He come near her ears and said :”what is this wifey ,we are not even married properly and you are start crying already .Don’t you think it was too fast but no problem this is your practice “.She look at him with teary eyes while he smirked seeing her tears ,he wipe her tears and said :”wifey there  is no need to cry as I will give you more chances to cry ,you don’t need to take stress”.he again look at her and tie the nuptial chain around her neck ,Alya Dhruv also do the same .Finally priest announced both the couple as husband wife.
