•BANJARE KO GHAR•
A couple was shown arguing with eachother and we could hear yelling and it was increasing with each second
"I wish I never met you" The boy angrily said and leaves the house smacking the door hard
"I wish I never met you" This words roamed in the girl's head and a tear escaped from her eyes
"Na jaane humari bhul kya thi, unse pyaar karna ya unki parwah karna"
She tried to calm herself but that was not enough, tears were falling down her cheeks without any hurdles
She remembered the time she met him for the first time and found her self falling for him
“Tumne jo dard diye the usske sahare jeete hai
Ye dard ko hum yun Haas ke sehte hai
Na jaane tumse ishq karna sahi tha ya galat
Tumse pyaar karke bhi tumse sab chipate hai”
It was first day of college and ofcourse she was worried about it, soon she reached the college gate and took a deep breath and walked in with a smile
"Bela, you here in Mumbai?" a shocked voice called her
"Hii Vish, yeah I got admission here" she replied with a small smile
"Wow!! I'm so excited, you know I missed you so muchh" as soon as the words were left, Bela was caged in a tight, breath taking, hug from her childhood bestie
"Vish, I- I can't breath and I missed you equally"
"Hehe, sorry"
"Btw how is uncle and aunty?"
"They are great and where are you living?"
"At my place, dad bought it some year ago and after his dead this place was transferred to my name"
There was a long but comfortable silence between them, Vish side-hugged her and squeezed her shoulder lightly
They both got to know that they have only 2 lectures with each other, first and second and after that they have all different lectures
Bela was in the classroom, sitting in the corner just when the lecture was about to start, a boy came and sat beside her
"Hi, I'm Mahir, Mahir Sehgal" and forwarded his hand
Bela shaked hand with him and replied, "I'm Bela Sharma"
Both nodded at each other and focused on the lecture
Few months passed like this and now Bela and Mahir was close friends, in the meantime they got to know that Vish is in relationship with Mahir's younger brother, Yuvraj Sehgal
She had 2 more friends, Darshan Raval and Anu Mittal they both lives with each other as they are childhood sweethearts
They were happy for YuVish, they were a perfect couple as Yuvi can be reckless sometimes but only Vish can make him responsible man, meanwhile Bela was also feeling something for Mahir but choosed to ignore the feeling coz it can affect her friendship with him
"Darte reh gaye hum kuch
keh na paaye,
Unke aache dost banke reh gaye, Ishq na ban paaye,
Mohobbat ki khata bhi aasa na thi, naa to hum unke the, nahi unko hum apna bana paaye,
Unko na paane ke aas mein aur khone ke daar mein hi hum ek tarfa ashiqui kar paaye"
Few weeks later they got to know that there is singing competition between college and nobody knows that Bela loves to sing expect Mahir and right now he is requesting her to take part in it
"Pls Albela take part na, you loves to sing then why you aren't participating?"
"Mahi I'm not good enough"
"Nonsense, you are talented enough to be a professional singer"
And they continued to argue about this for half an hour and finally Bela said, "Okay baba I'll take part"
Mahir hugged her tightly and smiled
Soon the day came when the competition was held on, Bela practiced song written by herself
Not even Mahir, YuVish or DarshAnu knew the name or the lyrics because Bela said that will be surprise for them
It was Bela's turn to sing,
"Umm... Hey! I'm Bela Sharma from XYZ college and I'm going to sing a song written and composed by me only, hope you'll like it"
"What is the title?" one of the judge asked
"Ohh it's called Banjare Ko Ghar"
"Okay you may start now"
Bela nodded at them and closed her eyes and opened them, looking at Mahir and the gang and smiled at them
"Jise zindagi dhoondh rahi hai
Kya ye woh makaam mera hai
Yahaan chain se bas ruk jaaun
Kyun dil ye mujhe kehta hai
Jazbaat naye se mile hain
Jaane kya asar ye huaa hai
Ik aas mili phir mujhko
Jo qubool kisi ne kiya hai"
She remembers the day she meet him and found unknown peace in his presence
The times when she was close to breaking down and Mahir was the one to console her
"Haan...
Kisi shaayar ki ghazal
Jo de rooh ko sukoon ke pal
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjaare ko ghar
Naye mausam ki sehar
Yaa sard mein dopahar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjare ko ghar
Hmm..."
He was a beautiful sin for her, she knew he wasn't going to be hers yet she didn't let her hopes down and wished for him to be hers
"Jaise koi kinaara
Deta ho sahaara
Mujhe wo mila kisi mod par
Koi raat ka taara
Karta ho ujaala
Waise hi roshan
kare woh shehar"
He was the Sunshine she wants to protect, she remembered the time when an party's decoration was going on and Mahir was helping them without taking rest and doing almost work alone
"Dard mere woh
bhula hi gayaa
Kuch aisa asar huaa
Jeena mujhe phir se
woh sikha raha"
She forgot her pain when she was with him
There was a time when she decided to commit suicide but now she feels like there is a reason to live and that is Mahir
"Hmm.. Jaise
baarish kar de tar
Yaa marham dard par
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjare ko ghar
Naye mausam ki sehar
Yaa sard mein dopahar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjaare ko ghar"
She remembered his pranks on her and him pacifying her
"Muskaata yeh chehra
Deta hai jo pehraa
Jaane chhupata kya
dil ka samandar
Auron ko toh har
dum saaya deta hai
Woh dhoop mein
hai khada khud magar"
Now Mahir remembers her selfless works, even if she was in hurry she never let anyone down who asked her for any
type of help
She is the mystery he wants to solve
"Chot lagi hai usey,
Phir kyun mehsoos
mujhe ho raha hai
Dil tu bata de kya
hai iraada tera"
Even if Mahir was the one who get hurts but Bela was the only who feel pains
"Main parinda besabar
Tha uda jo darbadar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjarey ko ghar
Naye mausam ki sehar
Yaa sard mein dopahar
Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjarey ko ghar"
She longed for love, not friends' love but a lover's
She wanted someone to rely on, someone on whom she can trust with her life
"Koi mujhko yun mila hai
Jaise banjare ko ghar
Jaise banjare ko ghar..
Jaise banjare ko ghar...
Jaise banjare ko ghar...."
Bela opened her eyes and looked at the audiance, her group were the one cheering most, she made an eye contact with Mahir and smiled, she had decided to confess to Mahir through this Song as after meeting Mahir, Bela really thought she found home
But guess what? Mahir had a surprise for her, introducing her to his girlfriend, Bani Singhania
Bela compared herself to her and found that Bani is above her in each category and she will be best for Mahri though she didn't let this affect her friendship with Mahir and was as close as before
But someone was not happy with their bonding, She wanted them to be separate, she tried to create misunderstanding between them but nothing worked
Few days later, Bela found Mahir drunk at her doorstep
She made him sit inside and was about to go when Mahir held her hand and made her turn towards him and hugged her, resting his head on her chest
He was crying, and murmuring things like, “Why she did that?” “Wasn't I enough for her?” “She wanted to separate you from me, separate me from my albela”
Bela was shocked but got to know that Bani cheated on him and she was the one who tried to create misunderstanding between them
Bela called Darsh and Yuvi and asked them to take him home carefully
Next day when she goes to him home, she found YuVish and DarshAnu there sitting with sad face, she asked them what happened and they told her that Mahir went to London for forever without informing anyone just leaving a note
She was so sad that he went without saying anything, she was again turned into the quiet girl
She remembered why they were arguing
"I love Ruhi" Mahir said those words looking directly into her eyes
"Why?" that was only question that was able to come out of her
"She treated me like I was somebody" he whispered
"But will she love you when you will be nobody?" she silently asked him
"No one loved me when I was nobody" he yelled
"I did" she almost screamed
Mahir was taken back by it and stood stunned
"Before the money and before the fame, before the success and before everything" Bela couldn't hide it anymore, he needs to know
"I loved you Mahir, when you were just yourself not any arrogant CEO, when you used to be careful and you used to come to me when there was any problem not drinking so much that you don't know what happened last night, when you used to be a gentleman who respect women, not a Playboy who use woman as a tissue!
You don't know how much it hurts to see you with someone else, how difficult it is to behave that we are just friends when my feelings for you are more than just friends"
Mahir didn't said anything for good 5 mins because he was so shocked to say something
"You.... You are lying, right?" He stammers
"Why would I Mahir? you became my world, you were the one I thought I would rely on, the one who would never judge me, and then you also disappeared!"
Bela was not stopping she was saying all the things she wished to say him earlier
"What was my fault Mahir? Where was I wrong? I did everything to make you happy from saving you from professors to being there whenever you were down! But you didn't hesitate to leave me, you never care Mahir, never!"
Now she was a crying mess, she was letting her feelings flow which she hided for years but not now
He needs to know what she suffered when he left her all alone by herself
Here Mahir was getting irritated because of her crying because it somehows still effects him, so to make her stop he said something which he knew will broke her completely
"I wish I never meet you"
Back to Present
"Tum bhi ye galti na kar na jis galti ke liye humein nazar
andaaz karte ho,
Kisi din aake ye na keh dena ki ab tum bhi humse pyaar karte ho"
Bela stopped crying and goes to washroom to wash her face, her eyes fells on something and she smiled sarcastically, she picked it up and it was razor blades
She puts her selves up and turn on that, she again looked at it and cuts her arm, she felt satisfied after seeing the blood oozing from the their
There were faded scars on their arms, she made 4-5 more cuts and puts the razor blades down, there were no sign of hurt or anything like that on her face, it was just pure satisfied smile
She has changed very much, it was the first thought of Mahir who came back to Bela's apartment after knowing what he meant for her and what he had done, it brokes his heart to see her in this condition, he can't see his love hurting herself
Yeah his love, she was her first love which he didn't realised earlier, he realised his love and missed her when he was in London, yes earlier whatever he said in the argument he was forced to do that
He is now a businessman and he have many enemies behind him who can hurt her, he didn't want her to get hurt that's why he wanted her to hate him
And it wasn't like his wanted to leave her at first place, he was forced by Bani to leave her or else she will leak some pictures of Bela taken from the wrong angles and some photoshopped pics of her kissing different different boys and then Bela's reputation will be gone
Earlier when Mahir stromed out of the apartment, he got call from Darshan
“Hello Mahir did you met Bela?”
“Yes, I met her”
“Don't tell me you hurted her again?”
“.....”
“Means you hurted her, didn't you? Are you fool Mahir??? Can't you see that stupid loves you more than herself, you don't know what she went through without you”
“Then tell me what did I did???”
“You left her when she needed you most! She was suffering, she lost her last living family after 2 months you left her, left us. She was already in the state is going to depression because of you and when she learnt that her grandfather left her for forever she was broken beyond repair”
Mahir was speechless, he can't imagine what pain she went through
“After 3 months we found out that she is in depression and started to hurt herself and had attempted suicide 2 times, we somehow managed to made her love herself again”
Now Mahir had no words left, he is ready to fight any enemy and anyone for her. Non can hurt what is his and Bela was born to be His
She is his angel and now he have to save her and win her trust again and prove himself worthy of her
He goes inside with the first aid and holds her hand and make her sit on the table
She looked at him as if he is just her imagination while he was doing her bandage, a tear escape from his eyes and he looked at him
“Khayal nahi rakh sakti apna? Ye kya soch ke Kiya tumne haan?!”
(“Can't you take care of yourself? What did you thought before doing this!?”)
“Why you cares? You left me, go I won't mind you going away again”
And she pushed him and gets up to go but Mahir holds her wrists
“Leave me”
“.…......”
“I SAID LEAVE ME! GO AWAY, GO TO YOUR RUHI WHOM YOU LOVE AND YOU HATE ME NA, THEN WHY ARE YOU HERE??”
“SHUT UP!”
Bela stood stunned and immediately shuts up, then Mahir calms himself down and said
“I never said that I hates you, I don't love Ruhi, Bela…..
I love you, only you, this sher loves his albela only”
And he continues to say why he left without any msg and all
Bela just hugged him tightly and let herself lost in his arms, Mahir holds her tight, close to himself
1 years later
“Bela fast come na”
Mahir was ready in a formal suit and was waiting for Bela to come with him somewhere, throughout the year Mahir worked hard to gain Bela's trust back and with the help of his friends he managed to get Bani arrested for blackmailing him
Bela who forgived him long ago, but she was still hurt by him so she wanted to make him pay for that
“Coming”
And when she came, she was the most beautiful women he had ever seen
He smiled at her hold out his hands for her, Bela smiled back and took his hand in hers and walks wherever he was leading her to
Few moments later,
Bela had blindfold on her eyes and Mahir was taking her to a beautifully decorated place, it was simple yet elegant
“You can remove that blindfold now”
Bela romoves her blindfold and got shocked, she covers her mouth with her hands and her eyes were widen, she can't believe this was happening
It was like her dreams coming true
Mahir was on his knees, with a open ring box with a beautiful ring inside it
"Bela I know I'm not the perfect one and the one who deserves you but trust me in all this year there was not a single moment I didn't thought about you
Your pain became mine, I started to feel your pain and you became my home
I swear I'll never let you go away from me, I'll protect you with my life
I Love You So Much Bela Sharma, more than anything else”
Bela was a crying mess now but with happy tears, he continued
“So miss Sharma will you marry me and make me the happiest man in the world, I'll never control you and force you for anything”
Bela was in so much happiness that she was unable to answer and Mahir started to think that he did wrong step by proposing her and should have waited for few more months
“Okay, I understood your answer, it was my mistake but as I said I'll never force you for anything, take you time”
He said in disappointed tone and stood up and turned around to leave, when he found Bela holding him from behind, back hugging him,
“Are you going to leave me again?”
Mahir turned and hugged her tightly
“Never again”
“So why were you leaving before listeningy answer, so Mr. Mahir Sehgal I'll marry you”
Mahir looked at her with smile and teary eyes
“I'll never allow you to leave me, you are mine & only mine and in this lifetime you are stuck with me”
Mahir looked into her eyes and slowly leaned towards her, asking her permission he kissed her passionately, pouring all love he had for her
